    Carrie helped sell my Dekalb home and is now assisting me in purchasing a new home. I am impressed with her availability, knowledge of the market in general and knowledge of local prices and trends. When selling the home, she provided solid comps to determine price, offered suggestions on staging and was realistic in regard to what was possible with 3 young boys in the house. She promptly forwarded any feedback she received after showings and when offers were presented, negotiated the best possible price. I couldn't have gotten through the process without Carrie!

    We were thrilled to have Carrie & Zach Ottum as our Realtor when selling our home. They responded very quickly to every text, call or email, and gave us great advice. They got us a solid offer in just a few days. They work VERY hard for their clients and best of all she cares and gets results! You can't go wrong with Carrie or Zach as your Realtor.

    Carrie is a total real estate professional who has assisted us several times over the years. She sold us our second home in 2003, and has provided insights and assistance at her own expense on many occasions over the years. It is clear that she values long-term relationships. To the reviewer earlier, who provided a poor review, I found that if Carrie did not answer a text, it was because she was caring for someone else, but always would get back to us. She is now (2020) in the process of selling that home that she brokered as the selling agent nearly 20 years ago, only now, we are the sellers, instead of the buyers. She remains enthusiastic, highly knowledgeable, and highly sacrificial in her trade. We cannot recommend her enough.

    Terrible. When I would text her something about needing info or ask a question she didn't like she would straight up ignore my texts or phone calls. So happy to not have to work with her any further.

    Carrie has been managing the rental my husband I have been in for five years, and as that was a positive experience, we were happy to work with her on our next step to home ownership. She was great about sending us properties to look at that both met our requests and our budget, and was very patient with the many, many questions we had throughout the process. I also appreciated her candor and knowledge about the areas that we were looking in, and sharing her previous experiences with different types of properties. Would definitely recommend!
