Absolutely the hardest working Realtor

I am the owner of Jeffrey Homes, Inc in Colorado. I met Carol Ann in 2015 when she marketed and sold a spec home for me in a new subdivision. She staged the home and it sold quickly. She staged several more for me until I insisted it wasn’t necessary as inventory was down and the market was hot. Carol Ann offers more than just free staging. She is absolutely the hardest working Realtor I have worked with in my 25 years of building. She does not just put the home on the MLS, plop a sign in the yard, and leave the sales brochure pouch empty. Been there. She actually markets the home. Carol Ann is great at dealing with the buyers and their financing. As a builder, she has contracted several presold homes for me. She is absolutely vital to my company in navigating these customers through the construction loan process. I recommend Carol Ann represent any home builder or contractor.
A Realtor that actually adds value and earns her money. Imagine that.

Above and beyond our expectations

We met Carol Ann Cardella when we put a contract on a house she was listing last spring.  We were impressed with her professionalism, tenacity, and “can do” attitude.   Because of this, we asked her to list the home we were living in.  She went above and beyond our expectations, holding open houses on the weekend, staging our home to showcase it assets, and bringing a buyer in less than two weeks.   Few realtors represent their clients in the manner that Carol Ann does.  She looked out for our best interests every step of the way.  For this reason we will enlist her help in our future real estate needs.

10 out of 10!

I first met Carol when we purchased a couple building lots. Very professional and experienced. Later she sold those 2 properties for us . She knows the market inside and out, personable, straight shooter and willing to put in the work. When we listed another home there was no question we’d list with Carol. The home was a new build. She brought in furniture for staging, held many open houses. Her attention to detail is unmatched. Right by our side the entire time. I would rate my experience a 10 out of 10 with Carol.

I have known Carol Ann for 14 years; my business partner, Tom Chandler, and I worked with her for 7 years, beginning during the Great Recession. She reopened one of our Colorado subdivision developments where she was our exclusive broker for the sale of 63 one acre developed lots to numerous builders and individual buyers. Carol Ann was also the listing broker for our homebuilding company on 7 custom home specs. We greatly valued her experience in updating the design of home plans and material selections for the homes, which was critical for their successful sale. She also furnished, fully staged, the homes where her design skills were again very valuable. Upon closing out our new home subdivision, Carol Ann brokered 210 acres of undeveloped land and spent 2 years getting it rezoned for sale. My family has also used Carol Ann for 4 personal resale purchases and sales of our existing homes. I would continue to use Carol Ann as our broker, but I have retired and relocated to another State.

Carol Ann delivers both knowledge and elbow grease.

Ten years ago, I had the pleasure of working with Carol Ann to be the Buyer’s Agent when I purchased a rural property. A year ago, when I needed to sell a suburban condo, I asked her to be my Selling Agent. With another condo that I need to sell this fall, once again I’m turning to the same reliable resource. That’s because Carol Ann brings decades of experience to the table just when I realize that the transaction suddenly got complicated and needs it! Meanwhile, there is no task that’s too large for her to incorporate within her services. Need to replace the flooring and get the place painted before you sell it? Carol Ann will manage that for you. Simply put, Carol Ann delivers both knowledge and elbow grease. I wouldn’t want to buy or sell a property without her.

We are happy we entrusted Carol Ann

“My wife and myself were in the process of looking for a home that we could spend our retirement in. We contracted with Carol Ann to help us in the process. We had previously been the recipients of a bad house deal and needed someone we could trust and rely on this time to ensure this transaction went as seamless as possible.

We are happy we entrusted Carol Ann at a time when we needed someone to guide us through the process. We are so happy that now, we also call Carol Ann our good friend.”

Carol Ann had done her magic!

Carol Ann Cardella is the most impressive Real Estate professional I have ever dealt with and we have sold a lot of houses in our lifetime.

As a prime example we listed our large house with Carol Ann in November of 2015. We all know that the Christmas season is the toughest time to sell a house.

December 24, 2015 Carol Ann brought us a completely qualified contact for our house. Needless to say it was a very Merry Christmas. We closed on the house three months later. Carol Ann had done her magic!

She is extremely knowledgeable

We have had the privilege of working with Carol Ann through two purchases and two sales over the past 5 years. She is extremely knowledgeable, patient and has always had our best interests in mind. She has truly become a member of our family! Whenever we hear of someone needing a Realtor, she is the only one I would ever recommend. We love “Mama C”!

She was amazing

Carol Ann came highly recommended from a good friend of ours and we were not disappointed. She was amazing at showing us ways to increase the value of our home with honest improvements and not like some brokers that help you to “cover up” any flaws.

Before we started looking for a new home to purchase, she took the time to get to know us personally and what our wishes were. She was extremely patient in our indecisiveness and held our hands through the entire process. Buying a home is very stressful but Carol Ann helped to ease a lot of that stress by always being available to answer any questions or to just listen when stress set in. We didn’t think we would find the “perfect” home but we did with her help. I hope we never move again but if we do, I would not use anyone else but Carol Ann.

I cannot recommend her more highly

Carol Ann contacted me by post card after a 3 month listing with another Golden agent failed to generate any buyer traffic. The amount of work she put into selling my property, her impeccable integrity, her fabulous ability to coordinate upgrades to the property to enhance salability, and her tireless persistence in marketing the house places her is a class outside my experience in the real estate field. I cannot recommend her more highly as a listing agent. If I were a buyer, I would not consider any other agent in the area. Just outstanding performance!

She was a total, excellent package from onset to completion

Agent was referred to us and we knew about her knowledge and reputation in Summit County construction. Our business and home is in Breckenridge and knew we would have to remodel whatever we bought in Evergreen. She was a total, excellent package from onset to completion. The experience of buying a home comes with stress and anxiety, but with Caro Ann, we were relatively calm, hopeful and positive. We counted on her for guidance, input. She was appropriate and assertive. Her challenge was the seller’s agent and she handled a tough situation well. We have bought, remodeled and sold 3 homes and businesses.

She is especially savvy in the construction aspects of a property

Carol Ann Cardella really knows her stuff. She is especially savvy in the construction aspects of a property. I attribute this to her experience as a builder and developer. She helped steer me away from a property that I liked but that would have been a disaster to one that is in great shape and should have a good resale value. She is very responsive to inquiries both e-mail and telephone. She helped me to work my way through the morass of a mortgage application when the mortgage broker seemed to be unavailable or maybe too busy with other clients to respond to my questions. I would recommend Carol Ann to anyone who wants to find a quality property.

A powerful combination of experience and character

Carol Ann Cardella demonstrates ethics, integrity, and client loyalty from showing to closing. Her attention to detail and deadlines supports the client throughout the process. As a builder-developer she is especially knowledgeable about construction and potential for rehabbing—along with builder contacts if the client needs them. So, with the powerful combination of experience and character, Carol Ann is the best choice for any client.
