I can't say enough good things about working with Karen Wanamarta on our recent cabin purchase in the Sevierville area near the Great Smoky Mountains. From our very first conversation, Karen took the time to understand what we were looking for and treated us like family throughout the entire process. Karen went far beyond just helping us find the right property. She connected us with the best lender to fit our needs, recommended trusted local contractors for our updates, and provided honest, practical advice that saved us both time and money. What truly sets Karen apart is that her support didn't stop at closing; even after we had the keys in hand, she continued providing guidance and was always just a phone call away. Karen's knowledge of the East Tennessee market, her responsiveness, and her genuine care for her clients make her an invaluable partner in the home-buying process. Whether you're a first-time buyer, searching for a vacation home, or investing in a short-term rental property in the Smokies, I wholeheartedly recommend Karen Wanamarta from start to finish. Five stars across the board.

Karen is a great broker. Proactive, informed, and professional. Always looking out for her clients. Karen is great at finding investment properties for me. She did a few site visits before I put an offer in on any homes. She guided me through the bidding process as well.

Karen was an excellent agent to work with throughout our acquisition process. I appreciated her responsiveness, clear communication, and ability to explain each step in a way that made the process feel organized and manageable. She has strong market knowledge and provided thoughtful, practical guidance that helped me make informed decisions. Karen’s negotiation skills and attention to detail were especially valuable, and I felt confident knowing she was advocating for my best interests at every stage. Overall, Karen was professional, reliable, and a pleasure to work with. We plan to work with her for any future acquisition or dispositions of real estate and I’d recommend her to anyone interested in a strong agent.

Joe is an outstanding realtor to work with from day 1. My husband and I were first time home buyers. Before we were financially ready to shop for houses, he put us in touch with someone to get our credit exactly where it needed to be which took some time. Then, when it was time to find the perfect house, he was very patient while looking at so many houses and was always ready to put us in his schedule to look at the next one. We asked a lot of questions and he was always willing to sit down and talk us through it all. I recommend Joe to anyone looking to purchase a home and we will always have him as our realtor in any future home purchases.

Working with Karen was an outstanding experience. As a first-time investment property buyer—and purchasing out of state—having the right agent was critical. Karen guided me through every step of the process and made everything feel smooth and manageable. Her deep knowledge of the short-term rental market, especially in the Greater Smoky Mountains area, gave me a lot of confidence. I highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable real estate agent.
