Megan was a Rockstar negotiator! She made sure we got our house while being super fun to work with. I recommend the entire Fate team to anyone looking for professional and personal service that cares about you. We have worked with many agents and this team by far exceed expectations by listening and truly getting you what you want.
Karen Fate and her team came highly recommended from my previous neighbor that she represented in the selling of their home. As a medical doc, my schedule was hectic during the holidays, however, Karen was patient. She was pleasant and professional. Her team marketed my townhome well. It listed and had several offers(above listing) in the first two days and closed within 14 days. I enjoyed the experience, her advice and professionalism displayed. I highly recommend her(her team) to anyone buying or selling in South Tampa. Reginald
Karen is by far the best realtor we have ever used. My wife and I recently moved to Florida and rented an apartment while we searched for the house. One of our new friends recommended we reach out to her. This friend bought a house earlier this year and had a great experience. She was prompt in all responses and has tons of knowledge. Not just about the market and the neighborhoods, but about everything! When it came down to putting in an offer, she fought for us. She has great negotiation skills and it benefited us more than once. We would highly recommend Karen to anyone and hope to use her services again in the future!
This is our second time partnering with Karen on a real estate transaction-this time for selling our home. Karen is the utmost professional and top notch in her field. From our initial meeting to closing day, Karen was always available. Even in this hectic real estate market, we always felt we were her number 1 priority. Her communication, subject matter knowledge, market analysis and marketing skills are just what you want as a buyer or seller. The entire process was smooth and flawless. Thank you Karen!
Karen listened to what I wanted in a new home and community and delivered! The hard part was given the market dynamics I had to act quickly and she kept on top of it and negotiated a great price. I was unable to move into the house immediately and she came by and checked on it periodically.
Karen is a true professional and a great person. She listened to what was important to us, guided us towards options that we would not have otherwise considered, and steered us away from bad deals and risky properties. We ended up in the perfect location. Her patience and caring never waned throughout our almost 6 months of searching in the toughest buyers market in recent history. I highly recommend Karen, think highly of her both professionally and personally, and thank her for helping our family realize our dreams.
My wife and I love Karen. We moved here from out of state knowing nothing about the area. We found Karen online and called her. We took a chance. We told Karen what we were looking for and she started sending us properties. We flew in, with a bunch of unforeseen issues on our part mind you but nothing that happened threw Karen off, she met us at the airport, showed us not only the houses on our list but also the town. She was an angel sent to us from heaven. Karen handled everything for us. We bought this house long distance and relied on her for everything. We could not have asked for anything more from someone. She went WAY above and beyond for us. Words cannot convey our appreciation for all she did.
Karen used her extensive experience and market knowledge to deliver a top notch service for our family. It was easy to see that she is well respected and connected in the Tampa community. She worked tirelessly on our behalf from start to finish to make our buying experience successful. We would highly recommend Karen if you are buying or selling property!
I have bought and sold 3 properties over the course of 6 years with Karen and each experience has been consistently fabulous!! She is great at negotiating a purchase and making sure the process goes smoothly. When selling she helps review the property and makes suggestions for some simple and low cost repairs / updates that can be made prior to taking pictures. Pictures are always professional and the listing stands out more than the others. Finally, she is just a great person, determined to help sell your home for the best price. For all 3 homes we sold together, we had the listing under contract within 2 days of listing.
I would continue to use her for my home purchases in central Florida!!
I can't say enough nice things about Karen and her staff. They guided me through a stressful time of selling my home and buying a new one while dealing with multiple family issues. They truly care and look out for their clients and I was so blessed to have them handling my sale for me. I highly recommend Karen Fate for all your Real Estate needs!
I had so much going on personally on top of selling my home and finding another one to purchase, packing, etc. Karen handled so much of my chaos without even stressing me with most of it. She is so knowledgeable on so many things that you can trust that she will always have your back. On top of that she is personable and professional and just the best realtor to work with. I can't say enough nice things about her and her team and could never thank her enough for everything she did for me during my whole buying selling experience.
Karen was our realtor (by referral) for a new single family home build in the S Tampa market. We were told that Karen's integrity, hard-work and personable nature would be strengths we would find engaging in a realtor we were seeking. We had the highest of expectations regarding our needs from a realtor and discussed this with Karen at the initiation of our engagement with her. Karen's patience, attention to detail and focus on customer satisfaction from the first interaction we had with her far out paced our expectations, and this continued throughout the entirety of the process. She was always kind and approachable with any inquiries or requests for her time. Her knowledge base was outstanding. She was versed not only in the real estate process but also about the building process, specifications and coding considerations that we faced. She was able to educate us on the process (which at times was confusion and intimidating) as she has a wealth of experience and professional support/resources/connections that she was able to draw upon as well. She and her team worked diligently to connect us with the proper referral resources when challenges came our way that were outside of the scope of her field. The Karen Fate team was outstanding at listening to our concerns, assessing our needs, allaying our anxieties and professionally and properly addressing the challenges that were set before us. Karen was genuinely concerned with who we are as a family, what our needs were and how she could serve us in this process. We honestly feel that without Karen and her team, that we would not have completed the process and be in the new home we are today. We cannot say enough (deservedly) good words about Karen Fate and her team. We recommend Karen Fate with the highest confidence and without reservation or hesitancy. Anyone in need of a realtor would be fortunate to work with Karen Fate!!
Karen knows the South Tampa, and indeed the whole Tampa, market extremely well. She know what to ask both the sellers and the buyers, and she delivers what they need. Highly recommend Karen for any real estate transaction.
I can't speak highly enough of my experience with Karen! I am a first-time buyer in the Tampa area, with little knowledge of the real estate market down here. I knew instantly when meeting her that she would take care of me. Karen is honest and transparent, and really helped take the pressure of buying a home off of me!
Throughout the last month or so, Karen and Hannah (Her young prodigy) have been there for me every step of the way. They always answered every call, not matter what time of day or night it was. Their professionalism, knowledge and hard work was so appreciated, as I have been in not-so-great real estate situations before.
I've told her multiple times, and I'll tell everyone going forward- I LOVE having Karen on my side. I consider Karen and Hannah as close friends, and I'll always recommend the Fate Team to anyone I know in the area. 2021

Karen made selling my home a breeze! She really captured every detail that I loved about it and was able to use those details to sell my home. The photographer did a fantastic job capturing the beauty and space in every room. Karen made this process simple and painless from start to finish and she came closing!! If you are looking to buy or sell, Karen is who you want on your side!
We had a wonderful experience with Karen and her team. She was professional and attentive to our needs and did a great job positioning our unique home in the market.
Karen researched my area and sold my house above what I anticipated. Her staff was friendly and incredibly responsive. There was some negotiation with the buyer towards the end, Karen held my interests first and foremost. Karen's a superb negotiator.
Karen was responsive to all of our questions regarding the building of our new home. Living in Atlanta and building a home in Florida was a challenge for us however Karen was able to minimize our concerns. We were able to make sections based on her recommendations and advisement. We admired her commitment for excellence and perseverance to meet our needs!
It is a pleasure working with Karen! Her detailed follow up with concern for us as clients was and remains excellent! While this was not our first experience purchasing a new construction home, it was our first time doing so while living in another state throughout the process. Karen's communication keep us updated and she always offered assistance for any of our needs. We would highly recommend her and return to her for any further real estate request!
Karen was incredible. She went above and beyond for us at every turn. We couldnt have asked for a better guide throughout the process of being first time buyers. She listened to our feedback and produced results. We found the perfect house for us and couldnt have done it without all of her help.
Karen helped us buy our first house in 2017 and the experience was so great that we asked her to sell our house when it was time to move. Her professionalism and support throughout both transactions can't be fully described. Karen's knowledge of the Tampa market and determination to ensure our goals were met can only be described as unmatched. We highly recommend Karen to anyone looking to buy or sell and will guarantee your experience will be first-class.
We worked with Karen upon arriving in Tampa and ended up requesting her services upon selling our home. We were all prepared to put the house on the market and then the pandemic happened. Karen not only reached out to see what our status was but, also to check on our family. She was able to provide services above and beyond our expectations AND our home was sold in record time. I would highly reccommend her services. Additionally her staff were there to go above and beyond if she was unavailable. Great team!
We were looking for an investment property in South Tampa and/or a home we could live in when and if we moved to Florida to be closer to our daughter. Purchasing property when you are in different states can be challenging but the Fate team handled everything so seamlessly. All of our questions were handled in a most timely manner. They negotiated a sales price well below the asking price. The Fate Team's knowledge of the market place was exceptional. We would recommend them to everyone. Thank you Karen and Sadaf for a perfect experience.
Karen is knowledgeable and kind. She knows how to handle both sides of a real estate transaction. Whether youre buying or selling a property you definitely want Karen on your team. We are happy with the way she handled the sale of our home. She was invaluable.
I trust Karen to provide professional real estate services. She has consistently provided beyond the call of duty services, resources and efforts. I have used her as my agent and referred her to family. friends and clients with outstanding results.
Karen has helped our family with several real estate transactions over the years. This time she helped sell our Citrus Park home and made the whole process smooth and painless. She is simply the best realtor in Tampa Bay!
Karen's knowledge and experience is unmatched in the Tampa Bay Area. She is also skilled at managing complex, high dollar real estate transactions. We highly recommend her!!
I have bought and sold 3 homes with Karen and have been delighted with her ability to provide info required to help sell my home quickly and get the most money for my sell or best price for my purchase. She knows all about what is current and is on point with price and marketing.
I will not work with anyone else...she is consistent in helping me get my sell under contract in less than 4 days...it's the best possible partnership and totally worth the cost for the peace of mind.
