Meet Karen –
Karen brings a wealth of real estate and investment experience, quickly establishing herself as a top-performing agent in the Ithaca market and holding the #1 producing status in 2024, with over $32 million in sales. As the Team Principal of the top-selling Karen Hollands Team at Howard Hanna, she leads a powerhouse group of eight outstanding agents, setting the standard for excellence in the region.
Her passion for real estate began in 2003, when she launched a family property rental business that has grown to include a Cayuga Lake vacation rental, student housing, and a single-family investment property. Building on this foundation, she founded The Karen Hollands Team in 2022, driven by a mission to provide an unparalleled experience for buyers and sellers in the Ithaca market.
Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer, searching for the perfect investment property, or dreaming of a luxury lakefront home in the Finger Lakes, Karen has the experience and expertise to help you achieve your goals.
There’s no place she would rather be than out on her boat, fishing, water skiing, and soaking up the surroundings. From this love of the lakes grew her success in luxury waterfront real estate, where she has helped clients buy and sell everything from classic cottages to multi-million dollar estates. No matter the price point, every client receives her full attention, strategic guidance, and commitment to excellence. Let Karen coach you to success.
When I’m not working I enjoy spending time with my my wife and three children, playing various instruments in my band, and exercising – running, hiking, boxing, you name it!

What My Customers Say About Me
We had an excellent experience working with Karen.
She helped us to get a very good price for our house and shepherded us patiently through the complicated legal process of selling, something we had never experienced before – we would have really struggled without her help.
Karen was great to work with and we can’t say enough positive things about her!
Karen is the best. She was patient with me as I went through the process.
Karen is absolutely wonderful to work with!
She recently helped me find the right home in an extremely competitive market and then helped me sell my home, looking out for my best interests every step of the way.
She is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and professional, and she turns what can often be a stressful process into a fun adventure. I cannot recommend her highly enough!
We bought and sold our home with Karen and couldn’t have better things to say about our experience working with her.
Extremely knowledgeable and efficient, she worked hard to keep us at ease every step of the way. She comes fully equipped with excellent referrals for anything you need.
Excellent, excellent.
Karen was an amazing find as a realtor. Very responsive, and very knowledgeable about the market and all aspects of the sale of our home.
We connected with Karen and her team via Zillow – and from the start to even after our closing, Karen has been walking alongside us!
She helped us put in a successful offer for a beautiful little cottage on a lake – something we had wanted for a long time. We can’t recommend her professionalism, responsive, knowledge of the local real estate market and processes enough. Thank you, Karen!
We moved to the area from the Midwest during a very tough housing market. Karen was not only helpful in educating us about the local market but also a great resource as a first time buyer.
I have and will recommend her in this very competitive market. We found her responsive at the right time when offers needed to be made. She took the time to identify our needs and likes to show us the right house and then guided us through a slightly sticky closing.
Working with Karen was great!
I love working with Karen!
We recently worked with Karen to purchase a home in Ithaca. She was amazing throughout the whole process, treating us like family and the home like it was her own.
Karen was friendly and fun to work with!
Karen Hollands has extensive knowledge of the local lakeshore and other real estate scene that really helped with many aspects of the sale of my house.
In addition, she is quite adept at the psychology of dealing with buyers and all their problems. And with sellers and their foibles! She is fun to work with, too! I highly recommend Karen Hollands as your real estate agent.
If I could package Karen up and make her my personal real estate broker worldwide, I would.
My spouse and I interviewed 5 different real estate agents before picking Karen.
Karen was extremely helpful with the purchase of our new home.
Karen Hollands is an exceptional realtor; highly experienced, knowledgeable, responsive, supportive, and efficient.
