From Education to Real Estate, A Calling to Serve Others
Carrie’s journey into real estate began after a fulfilling career in special education, a transition motivated by a profound desire to help others in a more direct, one-on-one environment. This foundational drive is reflected in her guiding principles: “Abide by the Golden Rule and do what you say you’re going to do. Have grit, do the work; stay the course. It’s that simple! Everything will come full circle.” This philosophy underpins her approach, ensuring that every transaction is handled with integrity and personal accountability.
Her expertise spans both residential and commercial real estate, distinguished by specialized certifications. Carrie is a Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist and GUILD member, a unique distinction in her area, underscoring her proficiency in the high-end market. She is also a Seniors Real Estate Specialist, equipped to cater to the specific needs of older adults transitioning homes. Her dedication to excellence and client-first approach has positioned her at the top of the industry, delivering success for buyers and sellers alike. Carrie’s commitment to continuous learning and market mastery is evident through her affiliation with organizations like The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing.
Where Professional Excellence Meets Genuine Connection
What truly sets Carrie apart is her unwavering focus on people. Known for her resilience and warmth, she often forges lifelong friendships with her clients, transforming transactions into genuine connections. Whether assisting with a luxury estate or a first-time home purchase, Carrie ensures every client feels valued, supported, and understood. Her small-town perspective allows her to welcome newcomers, helping them integrate into Terre Haute’s vibrant community spirit and connecting them with trusted local vendors.
A defining moment in Carrie’s career was her very first sale: helping an emotionally shaken widow sell her home quickly in a slow market. The property went under contract in just two days, a testament to Carrie’s creativity and determination. Today, that same compassion and faith continue to drive her success as she helps clients find their perfect space, their retreat from the world, the place they call home, building community, one home at a time.
