My career in residential real estate sales has offered me the perfect blend of all that I love – teaching, learning, exploring, guiding, and mentoring. My true passion is the “Ah ha” moment that occurs when I have helped others achieve their potential or realize an important achievement. Being able to make a difference in people’s lives gives me great joy. Having received a master’s degree from Northwestern University and been on the faculty at New Trier High School, Lake Forest High School, and Lake Forest Country Day School, I am intimately familiar with the North Shore. Within my 20+ years in real estate, I have been a designated managing broker over multiple offices and shops for over 15 years. Introducing Engel & Völkers to the North Shore has allowed me to bring together like-minded brokers who were ready to elevate their businesses and align with a company whose culture and values reflect their own. The consistency and quality of this global brand is unsurpassed, and it is an honor to represent the best wherever I go!

    I hardly ever write online recommendations OR leave restaurant reviews OR comment on LinkedIn posts. However, given the sorry state of customer service in this day and age, I think everyone who needs a Realtor, should know about Karen Arenson. Karen is a world class real estate agent and her professionalism and expertise take all of the anxiety and hassle out of selling a home. I thought I knew a lot about prepping and marketing homes. Karen took our game to an even higher level. Call Karen!

    Working with Karen to sell our house was a fantastic experience! Her honesty, hard work, and extensive knowledge of the local market made the process smooth and successful. From the start, Karen impressed us with her friendly and caring approach, ensuring we felt comfortable throughout. She guided us with realistic pricing and innovative marketing strategies, leading to a quick sale. Karen's professionalism and attention to detail were evident in every step, making her the perfect choice!

    Karen helped us sell our 1914 Glencoe house in January of 2023. Karen had confidence in the value of our house. Her suggestions to prepare the house were excellent, realistic and had good payback. She also had excellent sources to get the work done quickly and at fair rates. Karen didn't hesitate to go above and beyond the call of duty to get our house sold in a difficult market, and at probably the worst time of year. We were very pleased with our results and enjoyed working with Karen!

    Karen is nothing short of fantastic! The consummate professional. More importantly though, she cares about her clients as people and is focused on helping them make the best decision for their home buying or selling needs. In a world where so many real estate professionals are concerned only with transaction volume, Karen stands out.
