Get to Know Me

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.
 
My clients are more than just a number in my yearly stats. Each person’s situation is unique, and I tailor my services to meet their individual needs. Real estate is personal, and I take great pride in offering a hands-on, customized approach for every client I work with. This approach serves me in being a top-producing agent, as success naturally follows when you put people first.
 
Having the opportunity to live and work in these beautiful mountains is truly a blessing. If you have questions or need guidance, I’m here to help. Let’s make your real estate goals a reality.
What My Clients Say

I can echo all of the positive comments in the other reviews found here. Carmie sold my house during a challenging time at the beginning of the pandemic in 2020. Her advice about pricing and her marketing efforts brought results for me and enabled a first-time buyer to become a homeowner. Carmie and Glen have continued to help us in practical ways, and when asked offer advice and assistance to manage our...

My wife and I have had two excellent experiences with Better Altitude properties. Carmie did a wonderful job of finding the right house for us and making the sale as smooth as possible. She and her husband continued to support us through the transition to the new house and the new neighborhood.

What My Clients Say

Over the last five decades, I've dealt with some really good realtors, but Carmie and Glen take it to a whole other level of exceptional client service. I was particularly impressed with Carmie's market knowledge, marketing strategy, responsiveness, transparency, and ethical integrity. She involved me fully in all aspects and decisions of selling our family cabin. She and Glen were always on top of the d...

What My Clients Say

Glen worked with us over the summers of 2022 and 2023 to find our high-country family cabin. We were looking in the Bear Valley and Skyhigh Ranch area. We made a couple of bids that didn't work out in 2022 (multiple-bidder situations where other buyers were willing to go higher). Then we started our search again after the snow cleared this summer where we were successful in securing our dream cabin. Thro...

What My Clients Say

Carmie was such a pleasure to work with as we sold our home in Blue Lake Springs. From our first meeting to the final step of closing, Carmie had our best interests in mind and was on top of every challenge we encountered. I was especially thankful for the knowledge, expertise, calm, and compassion she brought to the experience of selling this long-time family home. I will gladly work with Carmie and her...
