She’s also served on the Board of Directors for the Gridley/ Biggs local hospital, as a Director for the Butte County Fair, and has participated in various fundraisers aimed at enhancing the lives of children.

"Kari Wheeler has been a complete professional, up front and willing to do her first mobile home sale for us! There are a ton of other things in dealing with a mobile sale that were new to her and she nailed it! I definitely would recommend that you use her as your agent, you won't regret it! I jokingly told her she is the "real estate goddess"....but it's true... I not only got a great agent and the price we wanted but I feel we made a good friend as well! Thank you again Kari Wheeler"

"Kari is very professional, knowledgeable, and great to work with! She assisted me in selling my historic home of 20+ years in Marysville. Kari not only understood the gravity of the market conditions but was sensitive to my own personal needs! I would highly recommend Kari to assist with your Real Estate Needs! “She is the best”!"

"There aren't enough words to share the impact Kari Wheeler has had in our lives. She listened to our every request and need and didn't stop until she got the keys to that dream in our hands. Then the follow up care she offered was so surprising and we now consider her family. She is wicked smart and very fair. If you are looking for a realtor with integrity, she is your lady!"

"She was absolutely wonderful, a true angel. When everything was falling through she dug her heels in and kept fighting when we couldn’t. She walked us through every step and explored every Avenue never leaving us out of the loop. She is one that will take your challenges and find solutions in the most positive way. Highly recommended! She treats you like family not a number. She takes your wants and makes them reality. This was our first home and we got the best in business!"

"She was very good for us. Very professional. She helped us with a home buy then we used her to sell our lot in Magalia that roasted. However the biggest miracle I saw her work was with a very desperate employee and family of 7 get this amazing dream home in Gridley. It was not easy but I believe Kari to be a master at her trade"
