Karen Faber, REALTOR

Karen S. Faber, REALTOR

Experience and Expertise Guiding Your Real Estate Journey Karen’s journey to becoming one of North Atlanta’s most respected REALTOR®s is a compelling narrative of adaptability, leadership, and community service—a story shaped by her family’s legacy, world travels, and a dynamic career at the highest levels of business. Born into a devoted military family, Karen’s early years were shaped by the wisdom and discipline instilled by her father, a career military officer who later taught in the Judge Advocates Office at the University of Virginia. This upbringing meant that Karen was no stranger to change or new horizons, as her family’s life took them from the lush landscapes of Arkansas to the historic charm of South Carolina, from the academic atmosphere of Charlottesville, Virginia, to the expansive spirit of Texas. Eventually, Karen’s family settled in Houston, Texas, where she spent her formative years, learning the value of resilience, adaptability, and building lasting relationships across diverse communities. Karen’s academic path reflects her keen intellect and commitment to excellence. She attended the University of South Carolina, where she majored in both Marketing and Finance—an ideal foundation for her eventual success in real estate. Her dual focus gave her a deep understanding of economic trends and the art of persuasive communication, skills that would serve her well throughout her professional journey. Before finding her calling in real estate, Karen excelled in the staffing industry, where her leadership quickly became apparent. She rose to become Vice President for one of the largest regional staffing companies headquartered in Washington, D.C., overseeing operations, developing business strategies, and mentoring rising leaders within the organization. Never one to shy away from a challenge, Karen later co-founded and was Executive Vice President of U.S. Personnel, a $100 million, 21 location staffing firm, which grew to become one of the largest staffing companies in the Southeast. While excelling in her business career, Karen also played a pivotal role in the growth and eventual successful sale of the company to a leading NYC-based private equity group—a transaction that further cemented her reputation for strategic insight and strong negotiation skills. This accomplishment not only showcased her business acumen but also enriched the wealth of experience she brings to every real estate transaction. Her entrepreneurial insight, ability to build teams, and unwavering commitment to client service set her apart—qualities that continue to define her work in real estate today. Community involvement has always been central to Karen - a mother to three. Identifying a need for mother-daughter philanthropic engagement, she founded the National Charity League, Gardenia Chapter, in North Atlanta. This organization has flourished, nurturing charitable spirit and leadership for generations to come, and epitomizing Karen’s passion for making a difference wherever she goes. And, has served on local charities such as The Drake House, The Star House, Roswell High School Scholarship Committee, North Fulton Community Charities, and served as an advisor to the Girls Scouts. Karen’s transition to real estate was a natural evolution of her desire to help others and her deep understanding of business. As a top-producing real estate advisor with Harry Norman, Realtors, Karen has consistently ranked among the firm’s highest achievers and named one of the Top 10 Realtors in North Atlanta.. She has earned partner status and is recognized throughout the industry as a local expert in the North Atlanta market - specializing in Roswell, Alpharetta, Marietta/East Cobb, Woodstock, Sandy Springs, Milton, and Johns Creek. Her clients value her integrity, market savvy, and unwavering advocacy—whether guiding first-time homebuyers, those sellers and buyers who are downsizing, seasoned investors, or families relocating to the area. Karen’s comprehensive knowledge of North Atlanta’s neighborhoods, schools, and market trends, combined with her global perspective and proven business acumen, make her an indispensable ally for those seeking to buy or sell real estate in the region. She is more than a trusted advisor—she is a dedicated partner committed to your success.

Her years of service on the PTA board at Roswell High School—where she contributed for four years—are a testament to her commitment to education and family values. Her clients appreciate her ability to balance professionalism with empathy, always prioritizing their unique needs and goals. Beyond real estate, Shawn is an avid tennis player who enjoys the camaraderie and competition of local leagues. Her energy, perseverance, and sportsmanship are qualities she brings to every transaction, advocating fiercely for her clients’ best interests.
