Peggy Messner, a seller from Truckee, CA
Carmen is awesome! She was always positive, enthusiastic and responsive to any questions or inquiries from me throughout the process of selling my home. At each showing Carmen arrived early and was prepared to answer questions from prospective buyers and their sales agents. Her relationship with colleagues is cooperative and excellent.
Carmen has been with the real estate market in Truckee for a number of years and knows the market well. Without hesitation I would recommend her to others looking to sell or buy a home.

Kimberly, a seller from Truckee, CA
Carmen was a perfect fit for our family, selling our family cabin that we built long ago. We met with her early in the process and she was personable and relaxed which helped us relax. She immediately lined up inspectors and throughout the process had contractors on hand to help, sometimes at little notice when things came up suddenly, she would bring up contractor bids, and schedule inspectors. She led us through the process, giving us advance notice as to what we needed to do, docusign or expect. She answered all questions promptly by email, phone or text. And her team, even before an offer, let us know what we needed to do to get our documents in order; this continued after the offer. It all went smoothly and easily. We would highly recommend Carmen Carr if you have a property to sell.

Heidi Schuetze, a buyer from Truckee, CA
We've been working with Carmen for over 10 years and, hands down, she is the BEST realtor we've ever worked with! Carmen is extremely knowledgeable about the Truckee market and leveraged her knowledge to find us the home of our dreams. She was responsive to our needs and consistently professional in all of our interactions. We trust Carmen to look out for our best interests and will continue to work with her in the future. Even after we closed on the purchase of our home, Carmen has been more than willing and able to help us with identifying contractors and coordinating appointments. We could go on and on about Carmen - she's terrific!

Julie, a buyer from Truckee, CA
Carmen is a true professional! Her attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile are unsurpassed. Carmen took the process of pre-listing, listing and follow-up with agents, off our shoulders and made our sale a huge success. The real estate market is shifting quickly, and Carmen stayed ahead of it, resulting in a win-win for both buyer and seller! A resounding 5 STARS for Carmen!

Carmen is a full-time agent and knows the Truckee/Tahoe real estate market like the back of her hand! She is also active in the community, making her an EXPERT in her market. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Truckee/Tahoe area!

Jill, a buyer from Truckee, CA
We recently purchased a house through Carmen. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, every step of the way. We were lucky enough to stumble across her through Realator.com, simply on her stellar 5 star reviews. She is extremely professional, kind, prompt to respond, and is a good listener. We never once felt pressured into anything. She was truly looking out for our best interest. We highly recommend Carmen Carr!!!

Nick, a seller from Truckee, CA
Carmen goes above and beyond for her clients. She is professional, timely, and highly competent. She sold our home in the Donner / Truckee area and gave us complete peace of mind throughout the entire process. We highly recommend her!

Toby , a buyer from Truckee, CA
I have had the pleasure of working with Carmen on the sale and purchase of several houses over a 15 year period and I can't say enough positive things about her. Aside from her deep knowledge of the local market and thoughtful/strategic approach, she is 100% customer-centric and operates with incredibly high integrity. Unlike many realtors who are focused on their next sale or maximizing their commission, Carmen is most concerned that her clients get the best deal and are happy with their sale and/or purchase.
2021
Katie, a buyer from Truckee, CA
Carmen Carr is an extraordinary real estate professional. She not only has a tremendous knowledge base regarding our local market in Truckee, but of real estate custom and law generally. Her communications are clear, timely, thorough and honest. She is a kind, supportive problem solver when stressful events occur in a transaction and equally celebratory when things go well. You cannot go wrong working with Carmen Carr!

Carl, a seller from Truckee, CA
Carmen delivers. She demonstrated her expert knowledge of the market by developing a detailed selling plan. She then methodically implemented each step of the selling plan to clean, stage, and list our house. Unsurprisingly, she successfully closed the sale of our house despite challenges posed by a shifting market. Her professionalism is unmatched, and we recommend her without reservation.

Rick, a seller from Truckee, CA

Helen, a seller from Truckee, CA
Carnen is amazing. Competence, integrity, responsiveness - a true professional. She sets the standard for real estate agents. She's also incredibly kind, funny, and smart. Can't imagine going through this difficult process with anyone else. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! PS -- have bought and sold several properties and Carmen's attention to detail can't be beat. AMAZING.

Joe Naylor, a seller from Truckee, CA
Carmen did a superb job helping us sell our house in Tahoe Donner recently. This was the third time that she helped us with a real estate transaction and yet again she proved to be conscientious, responsive, and knowledgeable (as well as just a pleasure to work with). We would highly recommend Carmen for your real estate needs.
2021
Tom, a buyer from Truckee, CA
Carmen was a phenomenal agent! She helped us to locate the perfect house quickly and efficiently, steerings us through the purchasing process seamlessly. I hope I don't have to purchase a house again soon, but if I do, it would be with Carmen.

Chris, a buyer from Truckee, CA
Carmen went above and beyond for us when we purchased our cabin and has been extremely helpful after the purchase as well. She has a great knowledge of the Donner Lake/Truckee area. Carmen has been a great resource to have and I greatly recommend her as a Realtor

Sara, a buyer from Truckee, CA
We came to Carmen through a referral from a friend who is no stranger to real estate. We were told among other great things that she was knowledgeable and had an immense amount of integrity. Considering how little we knew about the process or what we wanted versus what we could afford, Carmen not only proved the referral true but, also showed herself to be patient and attentive to our needs. From our first meeting with Carmen, she helped us understand the process and assured us that she would help us all along the way.

With the confidence of knowing we had a great realtor on our side, last spring my fiance and I had one goal - to purchase our first home. At the same time, the demand for housing in Truckee exploded - making our prospects of finding an affordable home seem bleak. While we were well on our way to giving up, Carmen did not. She continued to work with us, and in a surprisingly short few months, found us the perfect home - and it fit our budget!

I cannot stress just how grateful we are for Carmens hard work and diligence. This market has proven to be hard for anyone wanting to buy a home right now, and yet she prevailed for us. She was there for us throughout, even after we closed on the home. We will absolutely go to Carmen the next time we or anyone we know want to buy a home. She found success for us in a difficult time, and I am confident that she will find success for anyone that she works with!

Dan , a buyer from Truckee, CA
Carmen is a phenomenal real estate agent who I strongly recommend.

In the process of looking for a home, Carmen diligently helped me specify what I was looking for through visiting houses and extensive discussions. She used this to narrow down a list that would be perfect, then navigated the bidding process fairly, professionally, representing my best interests. Her patience, extensive knowledge of real estate (and what to look for in a home), and familiarity with the Truckee/Tahoe area helped me tremendously through this process. Even post-sale, she continues to be extremely helpful!

In addition to writing this glowing review, I have personally recommended her already to my close friends and colleagues, and will not hesitate to work with her again.

Sue & Bob, a buyer from Truckee, CA
Carmen Carr assisted our Son in purchasing his first home in Truckee.
She was responsive in showing him properties he was interested in right away and with her years of invaluable knowledge of the area, guided him towards the property that best suited his needs, taste and budget.
She patiently worked with us also - the out of Town parents - answering our many questions.
When it came to a quick and final decision, I felt we could trust her judgment on the property being a good buy for our son.
Once the purchase was finalized she did so many nice extras which made the occasion even more memorable for him.
I have continued to look at available homes in the area since then and it only confirms that Carmen was Right ~ Our Son made a Great Purchase!
If you are looking to purchase a home in the Truckee area, we would highly recommend Carmen.

Jim Easterbrook, a seller from Truckee, CA
Carmen was responsive every step of the way! She was prompt with every aspect of the paper trail that a real estate transaction requires and she educated us on the current market in Tahoe Donner. When we received multiple offers on our property, Carmen was right there to assist in the decision making. nThe entire transaction was painless.

Roger Kim, Jin Park, a buyer from Truckee, CA
Carmen was instrumental in helping us realize our dream of living in beautiful Truckee! We are from the SF bay area and knew it would be a challenge for us to find a home in the mountains, but Carmen went above and beyond to make our experience as pleasant as possible

Brenda Gilbert, a buyer from Truckee, CA
I am pleased to provide this recommendation for Carmen Carr, Realtor, Sotheby's International, Truckee, CA. n nI credit Carmen with not only finding a home for me in a challenging market, but also for facilitating an equally challenging closing. n nCarmen has the knowledge, skills and experience to pull off what many others would have said was impossible. She listened to and helped refine my criteria for a new primary residence in Truckee. Carmen is so welll connected in the Truckee she anticipated when prospective homes would come on the market - absolutely essential for a buyer in a market with tremendous pent-up demand. She even coordinated with the realtor selling my home out of state to ensure the timing was perfect. n nAfter she successfully negotiated the sales contract for me for a condo in Tahoe Donner, she really went to work connecting me with contractors for renovations I planned, scheduling inspections and coordinating with two HOAs, my lender, and the excrow company. At the time of closing, when the process broke down due to things outside her control, she got everyone back on the same page, resulting in a timely closing which allowed renovations to begin on time. Everyone was happy! n nI know it may seem dramatic, but buying and moving to a new primary residence in another state has a lot of moving parts; and if the process bogs down, it can be disasterous and expensive. Carmen came through. Disaster was averted and more of my money went to renovations rather than needless expenses. n nCarmen gets all the credit for finding and securing my beautiful new home in Truckee. You can trust when she says, I'm always here for you!

We strongly recommend Carmen as your real estate partner in the Truckee Tahoe area!!

Jay Underwood & Jim Buschiazzo, a seller from Truckee, CA
We were given Carmen's name from a long time top producer that had since retired. Our property was a challenge to say the least and despite the weather challenges and regulations set by the CC&Rs; Carmen took on the property as if it was her own to sell. She communicated with us every step of the wayeven when our apprehension got the best of us thinking it would never sell. Carmen stayed with it and brought a acceptable offer to uswhich we accepted and then had to face the fact that the buyer pulled outwhile we were discouragedshe was notshe went right after it again and within days had a new contract for us. She walked us through every step of the closing process and got it closed. While the real estate business is unpredictable, Carmen is not. She is the utmost professional and would recommend her with highest regard. Jay and Jim

MelissaHarvey, a buyer from Truckee, CA
As new home owners of a delightful cabin in Tahoe Donner, we cannot recommend Carmen enough for the outstanding home buying experience we received. For us, Carmen has redefined the description of real estate agent and has elevated it to a new level, we have been forever spoiled! From the outset, her accessibility, clear communication, warm professionalism, her ability to read our needs and to help us refine (and define!) our tastes and objectives, her keen knowledge base of the area and her passion for the North Lake Tahoe region is palpable and infectious. Not only that, but with buying from a distance, she and her staff made the entire process seamless and amazingly uncomplicated. In addition, after the close of escrow she has helped us immensely in getting set up and connected, with great resources from deck staining to furniture needs and much more, which is so helpful when coming into a new town. We sincerely felt as if we were dealing with a dear friend throughout the entire process and I will miss my interactions with her. Hope to see you around the Truckee area, Carmen! Thanks again so much for all your help!
