Carmen is by far the best realtor I have ever used.  This was the 8th house we have sold, so we are very familiar with the process.  My husband and I feel very fortunate to have worked with Carmen DiPenti because this sales experience has been unlike any we have had before.  None of the other realtors we had used spent even a fraction of the time with us that Carmen did.  From the very first visit to after the sale and beyond.  Carmen was honest, detail oriented and willing to push up his sleeves and help with anything we needed.   

Starting with the first meeting at our house, Carmen knew exactly how to get the house ready and stage it perfectly for it to show like a model home.  Every room was discussed and arranged just so.  I welcomed the advice and the help because I wanted my house to sell quickly, and it did.

Due to his advice, attention to detail, and his expertise in knowing the best time of day to photograph our house, the advertising pictures were stunning.  Everything was perfect and so many people were interested.  We were under contract within a few days and the rest is history.

Carmen was extremely hard working, never pushy, always available, and completely willing to give us any amount of his time that we needed.  He has become a friend as well as a realtor and we definitely will be calling him in the future if need be as well as highly recommending him to all my friends and family!  

When I say that I was anxious about starting the process of selling my house, I mean I was in full shut-down-crawl-under-the-covers-act-like-my-relocation-isn’t-actually-happening mode. However, thank goodness a couple of friends urged me to give Carmen a call. 

He came over and was oozing genuine excitement to help me get out from under this house and onto my next big risk. Before he left that day I knew I had to pick him over the other realtors that I had talked to earlier in the week. Carmen is passionate and serious about his craft. He pays attention to the details so much so that when he walked into the house he immediately knew my living room paint color and what lighting makes it look best. He gave me a detailed, personalized list of items that I could do to enhance my home selling experience as well as coordinated amazing help for getting all of these things done with a very quick turnaround. We listed within a week, sold on Monday, and closed that Friday. It was truly amazing.  

Carmen and his team gave me their undivided attention and support through this process and empowered me during this time that I had melted into a scattered ball of anxiety. If I didn’t have them to lead me through this process, you could likely find me still hiding under the covers and ignoring the inevitable. They are all incredibly authentic, professional, and personal. They have a knack for reading people which they use to provide a personalized service while going above and beyond the call of duty because they genuinely care. This team is clearly known for their integrity and pure excellence, and are really the only logical choice to buy or sell your next home. 

Thank you, Carmen, Frances, and team, for guiding me through this process! I sincerely could not have done it without you all. 

I always like to think of Carmen as the James Bond of real estate.  He’s top of his class, always well spoken, well mannered, a gentleman in every sense of the word.  He’s also incredibly detailed, follows thru on every job and always delivers what’s promised no matter how many obstacles or challenges he endures along the way.  

You should work with Carmen over any other agent is based on 5 key strengths that differentiate him from most real estate professionals.First, Carmen will listen carefully to what you’re looking for and help you identify your priorities – what’s a must-have vs. a nice-to-have? He helped us prioritize homes based on (1) our vision for our family, (2) the aesthetic we preferred, and (3) the functionality that matched our lifestyle. My husband and I joked that it was like having a couples therapist, because Carmen really knew us that well and helped us navigate to the right area and the right house.

Second, Carmen will not let you waste time on properties that do not align to those values.  He never pushed us to pick a property. In fact, he often told me, “No, we’re not seeing that. It doesn’t fit the bill for you and it’d be a waste of time.” By doing so, he saved us a lot of effort and heartache in finding our home.

Third, he is incredible at negotiating and helped us save a lot of money in a quick turnaround. We expected a $2K concession from the seller but instead, we received $8K. And we were able to close on our property in a matter of days! This is where we really saw Carmen’s deep knowledge of real estate come into play, as he advised us on what to ask for after our inspection.

Fourth, Carmen has the most incredible work ethic. I received a response within 30m of every text, email, or phone call – no matter the time of day! When we attended weekend open houses and found a property that we were considering, Carmen was often available within 20m to come by and validate our interest. He was incredibly patient and thorough in explaining every step of the process and every line of our contract. He was hands-on and represented our interests at every step.

Finally, Carmen does not treat you like a customer alone- he really becomes a friend. He generously gave us a gift and champagne on our Closing Day, ordered us a large pizza on Moving Day when we were bone-tired, and sent us hand-written notes in the first week we lived in our house. He’s demonstrated a vested interest in our happiness and I cannot imagine working with anyone else.

I could go on and on, but I’ll leave it at this. Buying a home is most likely the largest purchase you’ll make in your lifetime, and you deserve to feel like you’re working with someone who really understands you and helps translate that into the best home that you can afford. I’ve met with many real estate agents in the last few years and Carmen DiPenti stands out from them all.

David & Sailu E

Carmen DiPenti is far more than a realtor: he is my trusted advisor on how to lay the foundation for my family’s future; he just happens to work in real estate. I have never worked with any professional who works harder to not only deliver results … but to understand the deeper why that drives me. He understands that a house is more than a building and he intuitively understands how to align properties with my often-changing priorities.

I have used Carmen four or five times over the course of my family’s journey, buying and selling multiple homes (some of which had multiple uses outside of being a place to live). In every case, he supported me through even the tiniest details of the transactions. And he has remain involved as small issues arose after the sale, doing everything from recommending furniture to helping me find the right contractors.

He is my agent for life and, even better, my friend. I could not recommend a single professional more strong than Carmen DiPenti.

As a real estate investor, working with a like-minded agent who understands your needs is crucial. I worked with Carmen and his team on the purchase of two houses and I always felt an enormous support during the entire process. He will be in the trenches with you fighting the same fight. I trust him, and his excellency in delivering results speaks for itself. I highly recommend Carmen and his team whether you are an investor or first-time buyer. He will get things done

Carmen DiPenti is truly the consummate real estate professional.  His knowledge of the marketplace, strong work ethic, responsiveness, high energy level, and eagerness to exceed his clients’ expectations clearly put him in a league all his own.

Using advanced technology, he marketed my downtown Dallas condo in such a way to differentiate it from others.  His efforts yielded a beautiful presentation of the amenities of the condo, building and surrounding areas, generating interest from buyers in not only the property for sale but also the “lifestyle” of living in the city center.  Carmen also showcased the property with impressive high quality website and 3D virtual tours, measuring internet activity with statistical data.  Having bought and sold many properties, Carmen’s expansive marketing was unparalleled! 

Carmen is a good listener, highly attentive to his clients, dedicated, and results driven.  He is an excellent communicator and eager to ask for feedback in an effort to continuously improve “the client experience”.

Above all, he’s got a cool vibe!  He’s the guy you want by your side, on your team, and at your table.  I can’t say enough about how impressive he is … in a laidback, down home, kind of way.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED … Carmen DiPenti, and his associate, Frances!   You will not be disappointed.

Carmen is the most dedicated agent in the DFW real estate market. He was referred to me by a friend. She spoke high praises of his hard work and representation. Needless to say, my friend was right! I am so glad that Carmen represented my best interests in selling and purchasing of a home.

Even during the pandemic, Carmen pushed harder and harder to get the best buyer for my property. He was dedicated around the clock to represent the value my home had to offer. His attention to detail was very apparent in the marketing of my home. Through his connections in the market, he brought in the very right buyers. All negotiations, transactions were handled in the most professional manner. The purchaser of my home is very happy. 

I have never come across a person so passionate about their work. Carmen is the best agent in Dallas region. 

Carmen, aligned the sale of my home with the purchase of a new home for me. He went to bat, to get me a fair value for the home I wanted. During peak demand, Carmen negotiated and closed on the new home for me, He connected me with professionals in the market for opinions. He really has a solid network for individuals who trust him and are willing to help his clients. 

I am very happy with the results of selling and buying a home. All of the credit is due to Carmen for his persistence, dedication and hard work. His work ethic and standards are outstanding. I got to know Carmen through business and today I am proud to call him a friend.

Honestly, there is no one better to represent your best interest in the real estate market than Carmen. I hope all future buyers and sellers will be elevated to the experience; Carmen has to offer. 

My partner and I got referred to Carmen from a good friend of ours who had great success selling his condo a few years back. From the moment Carmen responded to our text introduction, to the first time we met with him in person at our Dallas condo, Carmen's positive hopeful energy radiated throughout — even while wearing a face mask. Being somewhat anxious first-time sellers, we didn't know what to expect or how to begin — especially during a pandemic. But Carmen assured us not to worry and we really didn't worry much having him as our realtor. Carmen knows what he is doing being a seasoned realtor and the myriad of successful real estate deals secured — like the recent Airplane Hangar real estate deal. Impressive.

Our experience with Carmen began by him thoroughly assessing our condo's condition pointing out items in need or repair before listing. He connected us to his longstanding repair guy who resolved all of our issues at a decent price point. With repairs completed, he enlisted his seasoned staging stylist to transform our 2 bedroom, 2 bath, 820 square foot condo into a tastefully, simple, elegantly modern home ready for photographing and showing. As part of his plethora of real estate services, Carmen's team creates a 3D virtual tour affect that takes any potential buyer and virtually transports them into "their new place" when viewing the MLS listing before even stepping foot on property. This added feature gives buyers a realistic vantage point of life living in our condo. I almost wanted to buy it because it was so good and real. It made me smile every time I played with the 3D virtual rendering because of how life-like it was.

We were listed only for a week with a handful of offers coming in before we accepted one. Carmen patiently guided us through the offers weighing their pros and cons. We of course had certain parameters an offer must include which Carmen fully understood and agreed to. With an offer accepted, Carmen and his team kept us up-to-date as well as checked in every other day via text and voice mail as we progressed through all of the buying phases. Carmen has a wonderful over the phone voice that is calm, soothing and reflective. His attention to detail and many years of experience helped us feel at ease the entire time. 

We happily recommend Carmen DiPenti of the Carmen DiPenti Group to any potential seller out there. In fact, we've already recommended Carmen to a friend of ours when they are ready to list their condo. I will say that if we lived or moved anywhere in Dallas in the future, we would seek Carmen's buying guidance at first chance. Carmen is very special to us because he sold our first condo. And the first time selling experience with him and his team was a really good first time. 

Carmen DiPenti is a reliable professional who will do everything he can to get you exactly what you want. My wife and I recently purchased and sold a home with him and recommend his services highly. His real estate expertise helped us get through the process quickly and well informed.

When showing homes, Carmen does a phenomenal job of seeking out issues that a buyer needs to know about. He will get a great understanding of what you are looking for and help you avoid properties that do not align with your needs. In a situation with multiple offers we were able to count on Carmen to ensure we got our dream home. Throughout the home buying process, he was there every step of the way with prompt communication and solutions to every problem.

Before selling our home with Carmen he gave us a long list of items we needed to do in order to maximize the value. It was clear his main goal was ensuring we got the most money possible from the sale. The staging company he brought in did an incredible job and helped our home sell for far more than we ever thought possible.

Even now Carmen is someone I can call on for help. He is someone who understands how to make a connection with people and treat them like more than a client. We had a few small issues after moving into our new home and Carmen was there to help us deal with the home warranty company. On moving day he was nice enough to send us a few pizzas to keep us going. He went above and beyond for us every step of the way. You will not regret working with him.

We got to know Carmen while visiting several of open houses in his portfolio over the years.  He always seemed to be the perfect blend of likable and professional.  The more we talked to him, his expertise and passion for real estate really impressed.  When it came time for us to put our own home on the market, we definitely wanted to partner with Carmen.  That turned out to be a very good decision.

While we’ve bought and sold several houses over the years, working with Carmen exceeded our previous experiences and expectations for the sale. We relied on him to set a sale priced based on his experience, which turned out to be quite a bit higher than our own thoughts of the market.  Supported with exceptional professional photography, Carmen worked hard on creating a compelling marketing story with thoughtful and strategic descriptions showcasing all the home’s features and upgrades.

We teased Carmen that he’s the James Brown of Real Estate – the hardest working man in the business.  He worked through three different buyers and their agents, trying to close on accepted contracts in very difficult market and financial conditions during this Pandemic.  We trusted him completely.  Through his expertise and hard work it resulted in a sale slightly above list price!  Carmen absolutely earned our highest recommendation.

Carmen is truly a master of his craft, and I would most certainly recommend his services to anyone in need of an expert real estate professional. He helped my wife and I purchase our new home and sell our old home. Both processes went seamlessly thanks to Carmen’s experience and guidance.

Real estate contracts can be quite complicated, but with Carmen on our side, he explained every detail to ensure tactful negotiations and that the client (us) received the best value. His meticulous attention to detail gives him a thorough understanding of the fine print of every deal, which gave us tremendous peace of mind, both as a buyer and as a seller.

Additionally, Carmen was fantastic to work with and is quick to pick up a call or respond to a text at any hour of the day. Carmen is sharp and personable, and after working together, I consider him a friend.

When we met Carmen we were in the 13th month of unsuccessful house hunting, we were so tired and leery of working with another “agent”. After a productive, uplifting conversation with Carmen, we knew we were in good hands. Carmen is one of a kind, and definitely on top of his game. He is thoughtful and gets to know his clients so that he may provide them with fitting properties to view. He is always on point and truly listens to what you have to say.

Meeting & working with Carmen was one of the best decisions we made. He is absolutely the most genuine, honest, hardest working agent in the city. In the shortest amount of time we found the perfect home. He walked us through each step throughly and informed us of what was going on at every turn. He and his team set up the easiest timeline in their client portal with dates and deadlines to remember. He & his team also offer dependable contacts for everything, from Home Warranty to Repair Services to Housekeepers, they cover all the bases.

Carmen is someone you can depend on and makes home buying joyful. He and his team are knowledgeable and always on point to answer any question or concern. Not to mention his email newsletters are on point, offering current real estate facts, ideas, and fun places to grab a bite.

We will always recommend the DiPenti Team to anyone in need of a fabulous agent.

My family and I have now trusted Carmen to lead us through the journey of selling and buying twice.  We hope to not move again for a very long time but if we do he will be our choice the third time around as well.

He was very patient and helped us as we looked at multiple houses and explored several different neighborhoods.  Then after all of this we decided to switch gears and build!  Carmen didn’t miss a beat.  He became our go between with the builder, helped us make decisions that could potentially impact resale value in the future and in general was there to support us in any way we needed.

He also helped us get above market value for the home we were in and he and his team helped us find a nice interim place to live while the home was being built.

We cannot think of anybody else that we would rather work with.  Carmen and his team are second to none.  Not only is he our agent but we also consider him a friend.

Working with Carmen was wonderful as he gave us incredible insight and guidance as we were buying our first home. He was consistent and supportive, always taking time to answer any questions we had no matter the time of the day, showing his drive, passion, and respect for his clients. He always went above and beyond for us, and his knowledge and experience were invaluable for helping us navigate the difficult terrain of finding and purchasing our first home!

There is no one out there who works harder, gives more to their clients, or is as helpful and honest as Carmen Dipenti. His keen eye and depth of knowledge during the home buying process helped us at every turn and his reassurance helped keep us at ease during a stressful time. Working with him was also fun and enjoyable since he had such a deep understanding of what we liked, what we wanted, and our future goals as a family.

I would absolutely recommend Carmen to anyone looking for a fantastic realtor who was invaluable throughout the entire home buying process and have already recommended him to friends and family!

My wife and I have worked with Carmen as both buyers and sellers, and there are myriad reasons we’ve continued the relationship.  Above all,  Carmen is the consummate professional.  He knows his market, is great with his communication, and is confident in his ability to provide the best product.  The buying and selling process is one of the more challenging ventures people can undertake, but Carmen makes it much easier with his approach.  More than anything, the best compliment we can give Carmen is that we wouldn’t hesitate for a second to refer or recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell.

If you’re thinking about buying a house, you should get Carmen on your side.  His dedication and knowledge got us a house that we still can’t believe is our own.  His availability allowed us to be the most competitive in a very competitive market, many times viewing houses the first night they were available.  Carmen’s flexibility made the demanding and stressful process of buying a house manageable; we never felt like we were overwhelmed by any part of the process.  Not only is Carmen an astute professional, he also has a network of others who clearly value their quality of service.  This allowed us to have an end-to-end seamless experience for the multitude of inspectors, financiers, and other individuals that were required.  We absolutely would and already do recommend Carmen to our friends and family.

I felt I was on to someone I could trust the minute I met Carmen at a random open house… the way he communicated and his expertise and knowledge of the market quickly became apparent.  He proved himself invaluable once I had communicated what we were looking for.  When he got back to me with an idea or opportunity, he listened well and helped me an my wife consider the opportunity and refine our focus.  Ultimately, he helped us find and purchase exactly what we had hoped for and gave us the confidence to move quickly and negotiate a “win/win” for us and the Seller.  I look forward to recommending Carmen and his team’s services to friends and family in the future.

Carmen DiPenti and his colleagues, especially Frances, at Compass are terrific at what they do.  Carmen recently arranged to sell our condo before it was even listed and at full ask price.  Carmen was able to leverage his experience and contacts within the marketplace to find a ready, willing, and able buyer.  From deciding to sell through the consummation of the sale contract, Carmen patiently answered questions and provided thoughtful and really helpful advice.  For instance, he gave great advice on how we could work with our tenants as we transitioned to readying the condo for sale.  When an unexpected repair issue just before sale, Carmen researched the options and piloted the resolution.  He made the entire process so much less daunting that it otherwise might have been.  We are really grateful that our friends told us about Carmen after they had such a smooth experience with him selling their home over three years ago.  Carmen is very good at what he does. 

It is my sincere pleasure to recommend Carmen DiPenti as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching for the ideal home, in this crazy market now more than ever. We were comfortable in our small one-bedroom apartment until COVID-19 forced everyone to start working from home. We were still fine for a while working in the kitchen and dining room, but at a certain point we just needed more space.

Carmen listened to our needs regarding our specific needs and preferences, and desired area, as well as our budgetary limitations.  He immediately gave us access to the portal and added me to a mailing list for homes that fit all of my individual criteria.  He did not waste our time with homes that were out of our price range or not in line with our needs.

A master with the contract negotiations, Carmen came up with a deal that was good for us, that the seller was willing to accept.  His recommendation for an inspector was extremely valuable as well, and I feel like throughout the negotiations he fought harder for me than I was fighting myself.  I wouldn’t dare have anyone but Carmen represent me.

We found Carmen to be a highly attentive agent, almost as if we were his only clients, although we know that was not the case. He was hyper attentive and supporting throughout the entire process before, during, and even after the sale. We never felt neglected or unimportant. He is also highly personable with an engaging personality.  I have already recommended Carmen to one of my friends who was looking to purchase and would strongly recommend him to anyone else in DFW.  Carmen can’t be beat!

I highly recommend Carmen DiPenti for any real estate transaction. I recently purchased my first home and he made it as seamless and easy as possible. He showed a high level of expertise and attention to detail, which allowed me to feel at ease and comfortable that he was in control of the entire process. His negotiation skills were impressive as he was able to arrange for all the major repairs, and even minor ones, to be made by the owner and finished in a timely manner. He responded to all of my questions and inquiries immediately whether they were important or not so important. I never knew how busy he was because he made me feel like I was his only client. Carmen displayed honesty and integrity and my experience working with him was nothing short of extraordinary. Whether you are an experienced buyer or it's your first home, you will be in excellent hands.

Carmen is an outstanding agent to work with. He is an excellent listener and negotiator with a very in-depth knowledge of the local markets. I contacted him about a house purchase and we were able to close within three weeks. At no point in those weeks did his dedication and professionalism to help me to achieve my goal waiver. He is extremely competent, he has quickly responded to all of my questions and concerns, and his knowledge of the entire process from beginning to end is outstanding. Without a doubt, I would seek him out immediately for any upcoming real estate transaction in the future.

A few years ago we had a bumpy first time home buying experience with another realty group and were shortly after given Carmen’s business card from someone with glowing recommendations. While we weren’t in the market at the time, we held on to it and are so thankful that we did when trying to buy and sell in the 2021 market. From the beginning he was very knowledgable, attentive, welcoming, and eager to assist us in any way possible. This meant coaching us on prepping our home for sale to visiting an embarrassingly high number of houses to ensure that we found a home that we could potentially live in for decades. He is truly unique and genuine in not trying to “just sell you a house” and is very honest in details that could impact the resale value or whether we would outgrow our home too soon. We never felt rushed during the experience and truly believe Carmen had our best interests in mind. Carmen far exceeded our expectations and we would absolutely recommend him to any one of our friends or family.

My husband and I met Carmen at a showing, pre-pandemic. He worked diligently with us over the course of a year to identify exactly what we wanted in a new home and exactly we needed to do to sell our previous home quickly and at the best value the market had to offer. He was also very sensitive to our personal needs as we were buying and selling during the pandemic with an immunocompromised child in the household. He is a consummate professional that operates with a degree of skill, integrity and compassion that is rare in a hot housing market like Dallas. We highly recommend him and look forward to working with him in the future.

Carmen excels at every aspect of the real estate business.When I started working with Carmen I was a first time homebuyer and was new to the world of owning real estate.Carmen was thoughtful, patient, and responsive as he led me through the process of buying a home. He helped me find a good condo while connecting with a competent team that made closing a breeze. 

While owning the condo Carmen was a frequent resource helping me find trustworthy  contractors and informed me of  important deadlines while reminding me to keep up with basic maintenance to maintain and improve the value of my home over time. 

When it came time to sell my condo Carmen went above and beyond and convinced me to trust his expertise and experience. We ended up painting, making minor updates, and staging the home and ended up selling the condo well above my expectations. He even went out of his way to connect me with a competent team in the city in which I moved.

I would without a doubt recommend Carmen to anyone who is interested in buying a home in Dallas.

I don’t even know where to start with Carmen. After a break up and in dire need of a new place as soon as possible, Carmen was there to immediately get the ball rolling, showing me houses that week. In this market, a good realtor is a necessity. Carmen is not just a good realtor but the best out there. He went way out of his way to make sure I got into houses I wanted to see, was very upfront on repairs and any items he believed would cause issues down the road and also to note the positive items I would have missed. I truly believe the reason I was able to get the house of my dreams is because of all his work in the background. When the appraisal can back $15,000 under offer, he took it on himself to review comps and build supporting documentation for the selling price. In the end the appraisal came back at bid and saved me a large amount of money. If you want the best, look no further than Carmen.

As first-time home buyers in a competitive market, we knew we wanted to work with someone we could trust to give us honest opinions and valuable insight. We were new to the process and looking for a lot of guidance when it came to neighborhoods, floor plans, lenders, inspections, etc. Throughout our home-buying process with Carmen and his team, we were never lacking answers.

Carmen heard us and understood exactly what we were looking for and was always candid and transparent- which we greatly appreciated and helped our decision-making process. We always had an endless list of questions for him, none of which were unanswered. We knew that when our offer was accepted, there were still quite a few hurdles to jump through to get to closing. But they never felt like hurdles in the end because Carmen and his team made the process extremely efficient and seamless. He helped us navigate the inspection and appraisal process to get us to an amazing end point.

We are very proud of our first home, which we could not have secured without the help of Carmen and his team. We know we have a trusted ally as we continue in our new home process and lean on his endless list of resources. We look forward to working with Carmen again for many years to come, and have (and will continue to) enthusiastically refer him to anyone we know that is entering the buying/selling process.

The only thing scarier then purchasing your first home is purchasing your first home as an out-of-state buyer in a seller’s market. 

We were connected with Carmen through a family member and immediately felt at ease and understood why their recommendation was so enthusiastic. Carmen is attentive, responsive, and always answers questions in a detailed and easy to understand manner. As out-of-towners moving to Irving, he spent a whole weekend helping us tour the area and attending home showings. At the showings, he was candid and straightforward about the pros and cons of the property. He pointed out important aspects of home buying and things to look out for that, as first time buyers, we would not have otherwise considered. 

Carmen even went above and beyond and, after our visit, continued to attend showings and sends videos walking us through the pros and cons of properties that fit our needs. This is how we found our new home! Without Carmen’s tireless work, it would not have been possible to find such an amazing home in the timeframe that we did.

Carmen’s services continued through closing and beyond. He and his colleague, Frances, diligently walked us through the steps and paperwork needed to finalize the process. Given that we were buying from a distance and our busy schedules, this process could have easily become a nightmare, but thanks to Carmen’s comprehensive understanding of the process and skill at working with other agents, it went more smoothly than we ever could have imagined.

Thank you so much, Carmen and Frances, for all of your help. We couldn’t have done it without you! If/when we are ready to sell our home, Carmen will be our first and only call.

My family has known and trusted Carmen with home buying decisions in the Dallas area for six years. As a first time home buyer, I knew I could trust Carmen to guide me through the process with patience and integrity. To no surprise, Carmen did just that. Having a trusted agent proved to be such an integral part of the purchasing process in today's market. Carmen was there every step of the way with an impressively calm demeanor; that said, he expressed a steady urgency when necessary to get the deal done. Additionally, I was very thankful to have Carmen's expertise on my side when making concessions in this seller's market. Carmen protected me as his client and showed sincere regard for my best interest. Carmen was a great sounding board in vetting out the good versus the bad. Nothing has changed about my positive opinion of Carmen since meeting him six years ago. However, I have now personally experienced Carmen's genuine and professional actions, which have me excited to include him in all my future real estate ventures.

We had the good fortune of meeting Carmen almost seven years ago while he was conducting an Open House. We initially partnered with him to search for a house for our college kids, which turned out to be a wise decision. Flash forward seven years as we recently completed our family’s fourth real estate transaction working together (three buys, one sell). 

Carmen is an exemplary professional with his integrity, work ethic, patience, and dogged pursuit of providing the ultimate experience for the customer second to none. Furthermore, he is a wonderful, extremely kind person and we are proud to consider him our friend and honorary family member. We give him our highest possible recommendation.

I feel like I won the lottery when Carmen was recommended to me by a friend. His laid back, authentic communication style was a great fit for me, and I always felt like he had my back. Even when negotiations got tough, his expert representation gave me the assurance that everything was being handled well and in my best interest. His whole team was first rate from start to finish. In the end, I got my dream place, and he was even able to steer me in the right direction for starting my remodel. I would highly recommend Carmen and his team for any real estate transaction.  

Carmen is an outstanding realtor that will attack any challenge that you are faced with in ALL aspects of the home buying process. From the initial offer, inspection, loan transaction, appraisal, and closing, Carmen took every discussion and negotiation very seriously. No detail was left out and every ounce of energy was used when it came to negotiating for the best price, savings, or deal. When I decided to submit an offer in a very competitive area of Dallas, Carmen first helped draft an extremely strong offer and then maintained close contact with the Seller's agent even when the house went back on the market. Due to his dedication in agent relationships and staying on top of the market, I was able to land a condo right off the Katy trail in Dallas. 

With this being my first home purchase, Carmen coached me through the entire transaction and would take the extra amount of time to explain all the intricacies of the contract, prepare me for future negotiations, paperwork or other decisions that would need to be made. This level of service and communication along with being extremely organized and responsive is just some of the qualities that both Carmen and Frances provided which set their team apart in the industry. Carmen kept me at ease during what is often considered a very long and difficult process and I truly enjoyed working with him and highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell. Carmen was originally referred to me by multiple friends in DFW that have had wonderful experiences of buying and selling houses with him, and as they say - the best kind of business experiences come from referrals. 

Carmen and his team do not quit. He was patient, yet persistent with finding the right home for me. In a turbulent market, he found calmer buying opportunities for me. Carmen was there for me every step of the way and found coverage when he was out of town so that I never missed a walkthrough of a property that I was interested in. As a first time home buyer, he helped me understand the entire process up through getting the keys, and after the fact.

Carmen is an excellent agent. He brings the perfect combination of warmth and professionalism into his work. Carmen was able to get me multiple offers and I accepted an offer above asking price. I wouldn’t have been able to get such a great offer without his hard work and attention to detail. Whenever I needed a recommendation for a maintenance person or a cleaner, he had one readily available. He surrounds himself with the best team, especially Frances. Not to mention, my dog loved Carmen. I would absolutely recommend him to any friend or family member

Carmen helped me buy the home of my dreams! Carmen is extremely responsive, and he understands the DFW marketplace. He kept me informed every step of the way, and overall made the experience enjoyable. He took all of the stress away! Frances is just as fantastic - they make a great team together. I would one-thousand percent recommend them to my friends and family!
