I’m Kara Lushear, MBA, SRES®, ABR®, PSA, HFR, a Realtor® and Real Estate Advisor based in Winter Springs, serving Winter Springs, Oviedo, Seminole County, and the greater Orlando area.
With more than 20 years of experience in real estate, home building, and community development, I specialize in helping clients who want more than a transaction—including seniors and families navigating downsizing or the sale of a longtime home, first-time homebuyers, sellers preparing for market, and homeowners planning their next chapter.
As a Seniors Real Estate Specialist® (SRES®), I have additional training focused on the real estate needs of older adults and their families. I also hold the Accredited Buyer’s Representative® (ABR®) designation, Pricing Strategy Advisor (PSA) certification, and Home Finance Resource (HFR) certification, which provides additional training in helping clients better understand financing options and the home-buying process.
My approach is educational, practical, personalized, and never pressure-based. From pricing and preparation to home searches, negotiation, inspections, and closing, my goal is to make sure my clients feel informed, supported, and confident throughout the process.
I’m honored to be a 2026 Coldwell Banker International Sterling Society recipient, recognizing my commitment to serving clients with professionalism, care, and results.
Real estate decisions often come during major life transitions. Whether you’re buying your first home, relocating, downsizing, or preparing to sell a longtime home, the process does not have to feel overwhelming.
Selling a home, in particular, is often about much more than the transaction itself. It can represent years of memories and the beginning of an entirely new chapter. That’s why I take a personal, hands-on, no-pressure approach built around honest advice, thoughtful strategy, and steady communication.
When we work together, you can expect:
Most importantly, I stay closely involved throughout the process. My clients are never left wondering what is happening or what they should do next.
I specialize in residential homes, new construction, move-up homes, and luxury properties throughout Seminole and Orange Counties. Buyers rely on me for clear guidance, local knowledge, and strong representation, while sellers trust me to help prepare, price, market, and position their homes for the strongest possible outcome.
Above all, my goal is simple: to help you make good real estate decisions and move forward with confidence.
Whether you’re planning a move soon or simply trying to understand your options, I’m happy to be a resource. I offer a complimentary consultation and home valuation, where we can talk about your goals, your home’s value, and what the best path forward might look like at your pace and without pressure.
