Gillispie Home Advisors

Serving Tallahassee and North Florida for more than 30 years

Meet Karen Gillispie

Where you live becomes a place where memories are made. An investment property can have a profound effect on your life’s story—when chosen correctly, it becomes long-term financial freedom and a vital part of your well-diversified portfolio.

My journey started 30 years ago as a mortgage lender right here in Tallahassee. My goal is to help you build wealth and develop legacy through real estate. I am in the top (10)% of realtors in sales on the Tallahassee Board of Realtors. My main focus daily are the people I can help realize their real estate goals. Whether you are a first time home buyer, real estate investor, or buying your vacation dream home. I am skilled and knowledgeable of my local Tallahassee and North Florida real estate market. I aim to make the experience of selling or buying your home or investment smooth and seamless. My reviews speak for themselves.

I was born and raised in Tallahassee and I’ve raised my family here. I’ve seen this city grow exponentially and I’ve been a part of that growth through community outreach. I am on the Realtor Advisory Board for Tallahassee Lenders and the Chief Financial Officer for the annual Soul of Southside Festival. A few of my greatest joys are traveling, walking in beautiful parks, going to the beach, enjoying fresh Panhandle seafood and spending time with my family and friends.   

Why work with us?

In today’s competitive market, you need a passionate, local advisor that can help you navigate the home buying and selling process. As a valued client, you’ll receive:

Karen did a remarkable job of guiding us through the course of renting several properties. We recently inherited properties and needed assistance with finding tenants. Karen had consultations with our family and constructed a strategic plan to find responsible tenants for our properties. She was very accessible and reliable throughout our venture.

As a first time homebuyer, I had soo many unanswered questions, soo many doubts but I can truly say, I had an exceptional Realtor Mrs.Karen Gillispie, she was my spokesperson, my Counselor, my Comforter, my Warrior and my Friend. Anyone would do well to have her on their team. I appreciate and wish her the best.

Karen Gillispie has been a stellar professional for over two decades. I sought funds to purchase a home from a local Tallahassee bank back in 2007 when Karen was a loan officer. Karen was responsive, informed, and proactive during each step of the process. She is keenly aware of the real estate market and her years of experience have given her the skill-sets to extend exceptional customer service.

She was the perfect person to assist us with her knowledge of the housing market (during the pandemic) as well as her background in lending. The home that we now own fits our family more than any of the other homes that we considered and even put offer in for. We couldn’t recommend her more highly and look forward to an opportunity to work with her as our realtor in the future.

Since we were living in another state, she was very accommodating with our schedules. When we found the house, she assisted us in getting the needed repairs done prior to closing and continued working with the seller to complete minor issues. She was with us each step of the process and was always professional and kind. I would definitely utilize her expertise if we purchase another home.
