Meet Carmie

Real estate is more than just buying and selling homes—it’s about building meaningful connections, truly listening to people’s needs, and guiding them toward the right personal decision.
 
Growing up, my mom was a real estate broker, and she taught me that valuing people above all else leads to success. Following in her footsteps was a natural progression, and over the years, I’ve seen firsthand how her philosophy holds true.

I became a licensed Real estate agent in 1991 at the age of 21 and have been dedicated to helping people with their real estate needs ever since. With over three decades of full-time experience, I have navigated the ever-changing market while staying focused on what matters most—helping my clients achieve their real estate goals.

Carmie was such a pleasure to work with as we sold our home in Blue Lake Springs.

I believe that if you treat people with respect, success will always follow.
