"Carmel is a full service realtor that has the energy, experience, professionalism and commitment to make the home selling process easier. Let’s face it, selling the home that we lived in for 32 years was not an easy process for us. But Carmel made the process much easier. She knows what to do and when to do it. She is on top of everything from staging to establishing a sale price to marketing to analyzing multiple offers and much more. She is also well connected. When we needed to have our septic system completely rebuilt to sell, Carmel worked with multiple contractors to make it happen. You cannot go wrong choosing Carmel as your realtor."

"Carmel is an extremely hard working, savvy, and thorough realtor. She is a very good communicator and goes the extra mile to help you find the right property. She assisted us in purchasing an investment rental property sight unseen from the other side of the country in the Spring of 2022 during a very competitive sellers’ market. She worked with our local family member to tour homes and subsequently carry out an inspection on our winning bid. She helped guide us to an ideal property, considering numerous factors along the way and in a few instances discouraging us from pursuing properties that likely wouldn’t be good investments. We appreciated her honesty and deep knowledge of the Stillwater area. We were also very impressed by her energy and willingness to connect us with local contractors or other contacts to help gain answers that would inform our decisions. It likely wasn’t straightforward to communicate with our local family member and simultaneously with us, answering our numerous questions from afar, but she handled it all with apparent ease. She is very gracious and willing to accommodate different schedules and styles. She is also a strong negotiator and importantly very ethical. We recommend her without hesitation and hope to work with her again should the opportunity arise."

"Carmel truly represents you like you were her own mother or son. She is sincere, professional, thorough but most of all has been doing this a long time and knows a lot of people and that insight is invaluable both from a networking standpoint but also has seen alot and can avoid alot of pitfalls from experience. You won't find a better realtor. Period. She helped my son find a home in a very competitive market last Spring and helped us sell a property this summer so we have seen her on both sides of a transaction and was impressed with both! Nothing slips through the cracks with Carmel."
Jean Walker
"I would not hesitate to use Carmel again. I placed a lot of faith in expertise and guidance, as this was my first move in 27 years, and was not disappointed. Not only did she expertly guide me through the process, act as my advocate and was promptly available for any concerns or questions, - she made me feel personally taken care of. All around I could not have asked for a better experience!"
Alexa Pocernich

If you're trying to find a realtor to sell your house or buy a home, Carmel is your person. You will not regret using her as your realtor and seeing the benefits you receive on having such a talented, professional and great person walk you through whatever real estate process you have in front of you."

"Carmel did a very thorough job of getting lots of information on every house we looked at, and we looked at plenty. She was always cheerful and happy to take our calls even after over a year of looking. Highly recommend."
Lee Daeiden
"An absolute rock star! Great from start to finish; I would not be in my fabulous home without Carmel.
Carmel took the time to understand my situation and always listened and participated in helping me find the perfect place. Her tireless effort surpassed all of my expectations. Absolutely great in all phases from viewing homes, making an offer and putting my previous home on the market."
Jake Birchland
"Very motivated and going above and beyond to find houses for me. Very good at what she does and would definitely recommend. Got every showing I wanted and made very good recommendations along the way."
Jennifer Roberts
"Our realtor, Carmel, was absolutely outstanding! We cannot say enough good things about our experience working with her. She is extremely knowledgeable and exceptionally responsive and she ALWAYS made us feel like we were a priority. It is very evident that she truly loves what she does as it is reflected in all the time and energy she devotes to her clients and through her genuine personality. Carmel made the home buying experience as delightful and fun as it could be and we would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a home!"
Greg & Lori Kostick
"Carmel was our realtor for a couple complex transactions. She sold our rental property and then helped us purchase another property within a strict timeline. Carmel is knowledgeable about the real estate market across a large geographical area and has keen insight into what sells and at what price. She has a sparkling personality and is always upbeat and optimistic yet very truthful. Her knowledge of design and structures is amazing.
Carmel advocates strongly for her clients. Her communication is impeccable. She kept in touch with us through our entire journey and beyond. If we called and left a message, we had a return call within minutes. We spent a lot of time together through this process and it was always extremely enjoyable.
We recommend Carmel whole-heartedly. We could not have been happier with our transactions. When it’s time to buy or sell our next property, she will be our first call."

"Our satisfaction working with Carmel Rubel Carver cannot be overstated. Carmel helped us purchase a lake home in a highly competitive sales environment (summer 2020) and she did so with skill, persistence and diligent research into every option available to us which met our parameters. We have never owned a lake property and didn't understand all of the things to consider when contemplating this type of purchase. Carmel was thorough in her research on lake quality and helped us work through our list of wants to determine which items on our list would be most important to us in making our decision. She returned calls quickly and answered every question we posed. We ended up in a multiple bid situation and she deftly helped us understand the nuance of Wisconsin real estate law and make a successful counter offer. Carmel made herself available to us on short notice and without complaint as we worked through a very short timeline. We have recommended Carmel to friends and would have no hesitation in using her services again. We have no doubt she will have a long and successful career as she proved to be a tenacious advocate for us."
