I'm Karla — a bilingual agent with Douglas Elliman who believes the best moves start with a conversation (and usually a cup of coffee). Whether you're buying your first home or selling the one you've raised your family in, I'd love to help you do it well.
As a bilingual agent with Douglas Elliman, I help families across Long Island and greater New York navigate the moments that matter — buying, selling, or simply figuring out what's possible. I work in English and Spanish, and I treat every client like family because, more often than not, they end up feeling like it.
What I bring to the table: deep market knowledge across Nassau, Suffolk, and the wider New York metro, a steady hand through negotiations, and the patience to answer every question. What I don't bring: pressure. The right move only happens when you're ready, and I'll tell you that even when it's not the easy answer.
Being recognized as an ELLIES Award Winner in 2026 means a lot to me — but the recognition I value most is when a past client calls me about their cousin, their coworker, or their parents. That's when I know I've done it right.
Every client I work with gets the same thing: a real conversation, a real strategy, and a real partner from first showing to closing day.
From your wishlist to the keys in your hand, I'll help you find the right home and get there without surprises. I'll also set you up with a personalized home search delivered straight to your inbox — built around exactly what you're looking for.
Start Your Buyer IntakeSelling well takes strategy and care. We'll talk through pricing, prep, and timing, and I'll bring Douglas Elliman's full marketing reach to your listing. Across Long Island, the boroughs, Westchester, and the Hudson Valley — let's get you the result you deserve.
Start Your Seller IntakeMoving from out of state or out of country? I'll help you understand neighborhoods, school districts, commutes, and the things you can only learn from someone who actually lives here. We'll start with a coffee, virtual or in person.

Each year, Douglas Elliman recognizes its top agents across the country at the ELLIES — the brokerage's annual awards celebrating excellence, integrity, and exceptional client service.
In 2026, Karla was honored at the ELLIES for her work on Long Island — a meaningful milestone early in her career, and one she credits to the families who trusted her with their first homes, their forever homes, and the moves in between.
¿Tomamos un cafecito?
Real estate decisions are big. They deserve more than a rushed phone call or a long email thread. That's why I host Cafecito con Karlita — casual coffee chats where we talk about what you're hoping to do, what's possible in your market, and whether now's the right time to move.
No pitch. No pressure. Just a real conversation between two people, with great coffee in between. Whether you're months away from a move or just curious about the market, you're invited.
Schedule YoursKarla made our first home purchase feel completely manageable. She listened, she advocated for us, and she answered every single question — sometimes twice. The cafecito was the cherry on top.
Selling the house we'd raised our kids in felt overwhelming until we met Karla. She brought real strategy, real warmth, and a closing that exceeded our asking price. Truly exceptional.
Hablar con Karla en español hizo toda la diferencia. Mi familia se sintió cómoda en cada paso, y nos encontró exactamente la casa que estábamos soñando. Recomendada al 100%.
