“We just completed our SIXTH family real estate
transaction with Carolyn and her team. And this was the hardest by far. We
moved to the other side of the country and left our beautiful seaside townhouse
totally in Carolyn’s care. During all the fluctuations in the economy and
sudden problems arising Carolyn just kept going, taking care of business. At
one point a friend asked me “Where did you find such an incredible real estate
agent who responds so quickly and takes care of so many details?” I actually answered
that Carolyn was an angel sent by God but I also explained that one day I was
looking on the internet at listings I just liked the tone of Carolyn’s
presentations. We contacted her just for a meet and greet at our previous
house. From that beginning I have learned to trust Carolyn’s instincts, advice,
intuition about the market and buyers and sellers….and most of all her
INTEGRITY. Where DO you find someone like that? If you need a Real estate agent
do yourself a favor. You can depend on Carolyn and her incredible team!” - Gary & Cathleen W.

“All I can say is selling our home with Carolyn and
her team was across the board a great experience. I am not good at long winded
write-ups, but it is worth my time to say Thank You. She is available when
needed, great with answering any and all our questions and making all
transactions seamless. Amazing and truly overall just a wonderful person. I
will always recommend and praise her and the Coastal Estate Team” - Christine & Nick S.

"Carolyn was amazing.
Her knowledge of the physical structure of buildings and property is
outstanding to the point where her decisions can help you prep your property
properly. Her knowledge of how to prepare it for sale is indispensable. It was
comforting for me to know that she was trustworthy, forthright and correct in
her points to help my family with our decisions." - Mike & Sue D.

"Carolyn was impressive in multiple ways: One learns quickly that her ethics and her professional demeanor is front and center; yet that did not diminish her creativity and her ability to find solutions that would lead to a deal. Her accessibility and responsiveness were always accompanied by a warm interaction, often with a broad smile. More evidence, we think, of experience and confidence. Loved her!."- Gary & Susan L.

"I recently had to relocate to Brevard County for
work. Carolyn was recommended to me in good faith by a trustworthy friend who
had recently employed her to help him find property. I contacted Carolyn to
have her assist me in finding a home. Carolyn was able to narrow the search to
homes that met my criteria, and she quickly had a feel for what homes would be
best for me; she takes the time to listen and learn her clients' wants instead
of imagining what she thinks will be best on her own. She has great knowledge
of FL home characteristics and local builders, as well as a lot of details that
might not be evident to a homebuyer. The whole team will go out of their way to
make schedules work and get you in on showings quickly. In the end, Carolyn
found a perfect house to become my new home in Florida. I highly recommend her
office to handle your residential real estate needs." - Will J.

"Wow, Carolyn was
excellent to work with! We found her online while looking for a place on the
Atlantic coast. We were fortunate to connect with Carolyn who has vast
knowledge of the market. We ended up going with new construction and she was
diligent in helping us through the complexities of building on the coastline.
While it was a lengthy process, she was with us every step of the way and we
could not be happier with the outcome! Thank you Carolyn!” - Peter & Erika H.
