Karen McCall

About kd:

I'm Karen McCall, also known as KD McCall, the Golden Valley KD McCall. Since 1990, I've called Golden Valley, NC home, and have been involved in the community and the community club. It was at the request of the Golden Valley Community Club in 1997 (there-abouts) that I began to work on the History of Golden Valley. Toward that end I began to collect information on the community and to write about it. Western Carolina Communities published my synopsis and the Rutherford County Historical Society borrowed it, and through that Blue Ridge Internet asked if I'd like to contribute to the Rutherford History Project. Shall we sum it up by saying - and so-forth? As a consequence I am one of this area's foremost cheerleaders and have written a collection of articles on the community. And not only Golden Valley, but Sunshine, Duncan's Creek, the Logan's Store area.... It happens I like to do research, and I like to write, and people are curious, so I've put some articles online and some community information at www.GoldenValleyNC.com .

Areas of Expertise

Although I'm known for my work in Golden Valley and the surrounding areas, most people don't know that half of my business comes from Rutherford County. I don't just work Golden Valley, I work in Forest City, Rutherfordton, Spindale, Cliffside, Caroleen - wherever business takes me. http://www.KDMcCall.com/

In the last couple of years I've have gotten particularly comfortable shooting Visual Tours. I use the name brand tours - I believe my clients get more internet viewings WITH the tours than they would without. In order to shoot better pictures I use a better than average digital camera and lenses that are appropriate for the situation. I draft my own copy and upload my own tours, who better to do that than your listing agent? See http://www.visualtour.com/inventory.asp?u=88009

Working with buyers is a blast! Some agent's complain about being a taxi service - I love being a tour guide! Driving clients around and showing homes - man am I working? Pinch me. I get paid for this?

Many of my clients, buyers and sellers, are out of state and most are really tech savy. In order to better help them I went for and received my e-PRO certification. The education I received has helped me work with clients online.

Testimonials

I actually have several letters from clients on my bulletin board at work (in my closet). I'd be happy to furnish other's on request. Here are exerpts from two:

"Brenda and I both have been through this process with several other professional REALTORS and you certainly stand tall among the best! Again thanks for your hard work and above all the results you achieved." Jim & Brenda Vernon

What makes this special? Brenda used to be a REALTOR.

"It was refreshing to be periodically updated on the many advertising venues [you] utilized in e-mails and personal phone calls. Denise and I fully believe that without your outstanding professionalism we would not have sold in the time frame we did." John and Denise Martin

John buys and sells multiple properties.
