About Us

I have lived and worked in Santa Cruz County for almost 40 years and have had a California real estate license for over 24 of them. The majority of my business comes via referrals from past clients but I enjoy making new connections every day. 

Before becoming a real estate Broker, I had been both a Buyer and a Seller numerous times. I remember that many times the agent seemed to care more about themselves than my needs, details, etc., and I vowed to never be that kind of agent.

I believe that developing strong relationships is the key to a successful transaction and a lasting relationship. Any client, whether buying/selling, are my top priority. I will allow them to keep up a normal day to day life and not miss a beat while I carefully manage every aspect of the hectic process. 

I am known for being an Amplifier!

FLEXIBLE:  Well balanced when it comes to embracing new opportunities, but also staying grounded. I'm able to adapt to both innovative and conservative thinking. 

CONSCIENTIOUS: I am organized, reliable and disciplined. Once making a commitment, I set a goal and can be counted on to follow through.  I know that with my attention to detail, I will over-deliver and serve you at the highest possible level.
EXTRAVERTED:  They call me outgoing, energetic and a “people person”. My energy and passion for what I do is contagious. I've been able to channel this energy, to attract more clients and build a lasting/loyal community as a result!
EMPATHETIC:  I believe I am compassionate and understand others in a way that is rare. My willingness to go the extra mile is what separates me from my competitors. I truly care about the people I serve, and they become clients for life.
COMPOSED:  Many may not believe it but I am calm and composed, and stress rarely (if ever) gets to me. It allows me to learn from challenges or setbacks rather than defining me.

One client gave this testimonial: "Carol has the knowledge, skills and attention to detail that are crucial for tough negotiations as well as compassion for her clients. She was always offering to help in any way she could and is a warm, down to earth and pleasant person. When I talk to other people about my experience they are always amazed at how smoothly and quickly the process went for us."

I became a real estate professional because I valued working with people and helping them achieve their goals and dreams of home ownership in Santa Cruz County.  I believe in creating an honest, straightforward, memorable experience for the clients I work with. 

Prior to becoming an agent, I was a stay at home mom for 7 years. Before that I taught at Boulder Creek Elementary. My past teaching experience enables me to educate my clients, allowing them to make informed decisions about their real estate needs. 

I work with an excellent team of service providers to handle all the bumps along the transaction road, ensuring as smooth a process as possible. I chose to partner with these vendors because of their local roots, experience and all around professionalism. 

On a personal note I enjoy anything ocean related, boating, biking, swimming, sailing and all outdoor activities.  My biggest accomplishments in life are my two sons, Kyle and Jeff. Both successful business men in Silicon Valley.

Whether in life or in business, my goal is to care about others and enrich the lives of the people I come in contact with, including my family, friends and clients.  I would appreciate the opportunity to earn your business. My mission is to exceed your expectations to the point that when we are done working together I will have done such a good job for you that you will not hesitate to refer me to your friends and family.
