"Throughout the home buying process Caranna was a joy to work with. Her professionalism, knowledge of the market and the personal attention give us allowed for a comfortable, thorough exchange. She consistently went well beyond what we expected to ensure we always had the information needed without having to initiate a call.Her communication skills were impeccable, constantly keeping us informed and updated on all the details. She was an excellent facilitator and a great liaison for us regarding our financial needs and guided us successfully from offer to closing. A true friendship was established during our time working with Caranna, a testimony to sincerity, integrity and character. She earned our respect, appreciation, and trust, which allows us to offer our most highest recommendation!!!" - Mark and Jeanne

"Caranna was the absolute best to work with! Moving on a tight timeline from Kansas City to Charlotte was a tough ask, but Caranna continually delivered really great options that met our needs. She also worked so hard to fit in a ton of house showings during our short visit in town so that we could actually see homes while we were in town. Her knowledge and connections helped us find what we needed, and allowed us to close in just 30 days. Caranna helped us find a darling home at the end of a cul-de-sac with a huge and well taken care of backyard for our dogs. She was a source of calm during the challenges of selling and buying halfway across the country. I'm beyond grateful for everything she did for us and would recommend her to anyone looking to buy in the Charlotte area!"" - Micah Hair

"The best realtor in Charlotte, NC. For those who do not know Caranna, or "C", our testimonial will be met with a feeling that our evaluation is exaggerated and excessive. However, the response from those who know and have interacted with her will quickly be, "That's "C!" Our journey with C lasted over a year, starting with our first visit to NC from MD to gain a general knowledge of the real estate market in the Charlotte area. The first impression of "C" centered on her welcoming attitude, exuberant personality, and willingness to help us in our home search. From providing printouts of homes to electronic links of perspective properties, C was extremely thorough. We experienced "ups" with the identification of properties in which we were interested and "downs" when one owner of home on which we submitted a contract decided not to sell and removed the property from the market. But "C" forged forward and kept our spirits high. She responded to our requests for showings, even late on a Sunday afternoon when we knew she had family obligations. "C" simply stated, "If y'all seeing the house will help you decide (on another property), I'm willing to do it." We eventually decided on a home and during this phase C excelled in negotiating the best deal for us. At this point we realized that one of C's key attributes was that she knows everyone -- inspectors, plumbers, electricians, and a host of other contractors. We plan to utilize her contacts as we are confident in the services we will receive as we modify our home to "make it ours" As one contractor stated to us, "I'll do everything to satisfy you because I know Caranna will call me and ask, 'Are they happy?" Now that is followup! We enjoyed working with "C" and have developed a close friendship with her which we know will continue as we settle in NC. And "C's" befriending everyone, treating all with respect, fully explains why she maintains such a vast network of contacts as she does now view people as simply a source of service but as friends. " - Alex and Sherrie Majchrowicz

"Working with Caranna is like having a friend, or a family member that you actually enjoy spending time with, as your realtor. She's extremely professional & knows her stuff, but she's also someone you'll look forward to hearing from. Her memory is extremely sharp & even over the course of several months, we found ourselves surprised by the comments she recalled us making about our home preferences or who our NFL team was. We are so lucky to have met Caranna & landed her as our realtor. We couldn't recommend her more highly!" - Zac & Carolynn
