Mrs. Karen was, as Tina Turner would say, simply the best! She was extremely knowledgeable in every area, and guided us every step of the way in this buying process. She made sure things were taken care of in a timely manner, and continued to help us after closing to ensure we would be comfortable in our new home. I can't say enough good things about Mrs. Karen, and anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home should give her a call...she's better than all the rest!!

Karen took a sincere interest in the remodel and sell of our house. We feel as though we would have not realized our profit without her guidance. This property was part of a succession, and she provided an efficient pathway to meet our timeline. I strongly recommend working with Karen Barker. Wonderful person!!

Karen Thibodeaux Barker is the realtor you want have. She knew so much about the area! We saw houses that were not listed to the public yet. She helped us find the perfect house for my in-laws. Karen did not stop there, she helped me find the best people to help me renovate the kitchen and bathrooms, and found a painter!

Working with Karen was so easy and she made us feel so comfortable about everything. She went out of her way to help us get the sale done in a smooth and timely manner. She is truly a rock star in the real estate business. Whether she is representing you as a buyer or a seller, you can not go wrong with her as your choice. She makes you feel like you are her only client!! We love her and will tell everyone we know they need to call her for their real estate needs!

Karen is absolutely everything that I checked and more!!!
Karen is a gem. She is the best real estate agent in Lake Charles. We are lucky to have her in our area. She is compassionate and great at what she does. I've never dealt with anyone better and I've purchased property in other cities through the years. She is the best there is!!!

I cannot say enough about the support we received from Karen. Selling the house from out of town could have been a miserable experience, but Karen made it all work. October 2017
We worked with her based on enthusiastic recommendations from multiple family members. I will now share their enthusiasm.

My wife and I were new to the area and we were walking at the park one day and it started to rain. Ms Karen saw us walking in the rain with our 6 month old and our dog and offered us a ride. Though conversation we learned that Ms. Karen was a realtor. At that point we decided that when we were ready to buy a house we would use her as our realator because she was so kind to us. Therefore, we knew she would have our best interest in mind.

Karen was very patient with me through a long home selection purchase. I was very particular about what I wanted even if I didn't know it yet. She was patient with me throughout the process even when I completely changed what I was looking for multiple times. When we did find what I was looking for she went above and beyond in helping me deal with the contractor through the final stages of construction and even after closing with absolutely everything I needed help with because I wasn't living in town yet. You're in the best hands with Karen!

Karen was the best sales agent I've ever had. Her knowledge of the local market, and experience with regards to the sale and purchase of my home was first class. I truly believe that she is the best agent in the Calcasieu Parish area. I will be using her again for my next homes in the future. If you need a home sold, Karen can get it done and she will fight for you on both sides of the deal. Thank you Karen!

Karen knew us, knew the market, knew how to get the word out, and how to deal with the buyer's broker. She knew how emotional the sales experience was and how concerned we were about having bought another house before selling this one. Karen has been and continues to be a wonderful friend and she proved to be a wonderful agent as well.
