About Karen

Karen Montgomery believes real estate is about more than buying or selling a home—it’s about helping people navigate important transitions with confidence, clarity, and care. Originally from Michigan, she and her family relocated to Hickory, North Carolina, after living in New Hampshire. As a Real Estate Agent and Broker with True North Realty, she specializes in listing and marketing properties, relocation, and helping clients navigate downsizing and senior transitions. Her approach is grounded in honest communication, attention to detail, and a genuine commitment to the people she serves. Before building her career in real estate, Karen gained experience in teaching, sales, and management across higher education, health and wellness, and community initiatives. She holds Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Health Administration and is also a Certified Fitness Professional and Yoga Instructor. Her diverse background has shaped her ability to listen, communicate effectively, stay organized, and build lasting relationships. Authenticity, kindness, respect, and discipline guide the way she works. She believes in showing up fully for her clients, communicating consistently, and following through from the first conversation to the closing table. Her goal is simple: for every client to feel genuinely cared for and confident in the decisions they make along the way. She is also passionate about being part of the Hickory community and is involved with the Chamber of Catawba County, Leadership Catawba Class of 2027, and the Lenoir-Rhyne University Bears Club. Outside of real estate, she enjoys strength training, yoga, long walks outdoors, time with family, trips to the beach, and discovering great Mexican food. An early riser by nature, she often starts her day before sunrise with a workout and a little time to focus on herself before the day begins. Her philosophy is simple: “Choose joy in the work, and success tends to follow.” With energy, persistence, and genuine care, she is committed to making every real estate experience feel a little more supported—and a lot more confident.
