Meet Karen Block
In 2007, I moved from the Logan Square neighborhood of Chicago to Bay View and it was love at first sight!
As a former photographer, I switched careers and became the “accidental” REALTOR®. Milwaukee and Bay View are a perfect fit for me and I love helping clients find a home they love in their desired community.
I work with a wide range of people, from first time home buyers and empty nesters to investors and everything in between. I have built my business on repeat customers and referrals from past clients, friends and family and I’m excited for the opportunity to work with you too.
Contact me today for a no obligation consultation to discuss your real estate needs.

TESTIMONIALS
“Our experience with Karen exceeded our expectations! She found us our absolute dream home and guided us in selling our current home, all during a intense real estate market. Her suggestions and expertise in what to look for in a home, how to stage a home, how to negotiate a contract and write an offer were superb. She really gives the white glove treatment- going above and beyond to be present, answer questions, provide reassurance, give a reasonable and objective opinions, and even provide emotional counseling at one point!!! lol. Buying and selling a home can be stressful, but working with Karen made it fun. I would highly recommend her if you are looking to buy or sell a home!”

“When I was searching to buy a duplex to owner-occupy in Bay View, Karen was the natural fit! As a landlord herself, she knew the potential pitfalls to look for and was very helpful throughout the entire purchasing process.
As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, it was important to me to work with a realtor who understood my life experiences and I’m always happy to support members of the community in their business endeavors, especially easy for Karen since she’s an amazing realtor!”

WE LISTED WITH KAREN BECAUSE…
“We knew that she was THE realtor in Milwaukee. After contacting her, she came over and gave us a few tips of things to do to make our house more sell-able.
We fixed those few things, then Karen came over to take pictures for our listing (she is an awesome photographer!).
Just four days after the house went on the market, and just one open house later, we had three offers, all over asking price and two were CASH offers!
We went from listing to closing in EXACTLY three weeks! Karen is the ultimate professional and made the whole process less daunting. List with Karen…trust me, you will not be disappointed!”
