"I am pleased to recommend Rosa Icela Carter to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Her attention for detail and getter done work ethic made the selling of our lake home so easy. As with any real estate transaction we had our share of last minute challenges, but Rosa was always proactive and stayed… ahead of any and all issues.
When a realtor gets a seller and buyer to agree that they got a great deal, aka a win/win transaction, not sure you can really improve on that."

Lakes Burton and Rabun have been dream locations for some time, and Rosa Icela has been right there with and for us, listening to what we're looking for, keeping an eye out for, and then providing relevant options.
She tirelessly lined up properties for us to see, and armed with enthusiasm, creative ideas, and constructive thought, she toured the homes with us. When it came time to make an offer, she shepherded the process from beginning to end - never forgetting the things that were important to us. She ensured everything went smoothly and was done on time, from offer letter to inspections. It means a lot to have a realtor you trust, who is on the journey with you, and for you. Thank you, Rosa Icela."
