Meet Kara – Your Trusted Real Estate Partner. Kara is a proud member of the dynamic Harcourts Levin team, known for her client-first approach and a strong focus on achieving outstanding results. With a passion for helping people find their perfect place.

Kara guides both buyers and sellers through every step of their real estate journey.

Having personally bought and sold multiple properties - including a lifestyle block - Kara brings valuable firsthand experience and empathy to every transaction. She understands the emotions involved in buying or selling a home and is dedicated to making the process as smooth and rewarding as possible.

With over 12 years of experience in the real estate industry, Kara’s background spans a broad range of areas, including administration, marketing, advertising, design, accounts, training, and compliance. This comprehensive skill set gives her clients a distinct advantage in the market.

Beyond real estate, Kara is a proud mum of four adult children and a doting Nana to seven grandchildren. Family and community are at the heart of everything she does. She's been an active committee member for local after-school programme, netball club, and A&P show, and she thrives on staying involved and making a difference.

Kara’s community spirit extends to her deep involvement with the Ōtaki Women’s Community Club (OWCC), where she was recently nominated Treasurer in May 2025. She also plays a key role in the Market Group, which organizes the popular Ōtaki Market, the Kid’s Market, and other local events. In 2024, the Market Group was proud to receive the BSI Award for Workplace Culture in Small Business under 10.

A passionate advocate for sport and recreation, Kara is also an experienced gymnastics coach. Her background in coaching, teaching, and sales gives her a natural ability to motivate, organise, and adapt to any situation with ease.

At home, she enjoys time with her beloved pets, a cat and a newly re-homed dog—often found enjoying beach walks together, tennis ball in tow.

Kara brings empathy, energy, and unwavering dedication to everything she does. Whether you're buying your first home, selling a property, or simply exploring your options, Kara is committed to helping you achieve your real estate goals with confidence and care.
