Founder | Realtor®

Get to Know Me

What do you get when you combine a love of people and a love of homes? You get a thriving career in real estate, just like Symmetry Real Estate founder Karen Ho’s. Karen’s passion is a big part of how she helps people buy and sell homes. From financial negotiations to renovations and design, she relishes the real estate process from A to Z. Her skill and enthusiasm have taken her far: She’s a Best of Zillow agent, she earned a Grand Master Achievement Award from the BayEast Association of Realtors® in 2020 and the Gold Achievement Award in 2021.
 
Karen takes the time to understand her clients’ needs and curates her approach accordingly, serving as a caring, compassionate guide throughout the process. But when she’s at the negotiation table, she’s a formidable opponent who fights hard for her clients’ interests. With a background in finance and accounting, Karen also offers clients analytical skills and financial knowledge. Her goal is to ensure that they understand the market, and she’s always available to answer any questions they may have. 
 
A native Californian, Karen knew she wanted to be a Realtor® from the moment she accompanied her mother to her real estate office as a young girl. Growing up, this first-generation American watched her parents struggle and save for a piece of the American dream, and she regards homeownership as a significant part of that dream. She wants everyone to experience the joy of it, and her team spirit helps make the process engaging and highly achievable for every client. 
 
Karen loves real estate so much that she could do it all the time, but she also considers eating a pastime and finds all the best spots — both at home and while traveling. Giving back to the community is important to her as well: She has volunteered extensively and especially enjoys working with children.

What My Clients Say
Karen Ho recently listed and sold our home in Rossmoor. Karen was a joy to work with. She was always professional, but also friendly, flexible and helpful. She listed the home for more that we really expected to get and then, thanks to a beautiful virtual tour on-line among other things, it sold for more than the listing price. When, as often happens during a real estate transaction, we felt overwhelmed ...

What My Clients Say
Karen came highly recommended by a friend of ours. Karen off the bat was warm and professional. She listened to what we wanted in our dream home, and she helped guide us to the neighborhoods that matched our values and lifestyle. We feel that she is the reason she got us into our dream home- she did not hesitate to take extra steps to help us make informed and smart decisions.

What My Clients Say
Karen was an absolute joy to work with. As a first time home buyer eager to find the perfect home, Karen was patient and enthusiastic throughout the entire process. Due to the pandemic, the traditional means of viewing homes via open house was no longer an option. When I found a home I was interested in through Zillow, it automatically matched me with a Realtor® and I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was no...
