She is also licensed as an Illinois State instructor to teach a class she wrote on Short Sales! Her background, as an Air Force Veteran who holds a Bachelor’s degree in business AND mother of three beautiful boys who are all in the 3rd grade, allows her to thrive and make it through the trenches in the Real Estate Industry. Carmen and her husband, Chad Carter, who is also a Broker at the firm and an AllState Agency Owner, strongly believe that everyone should have a chance to own a piece of the American Dream! They LOVE to educate their clients throughout the process and they train their agents to do the same. Education is the best way to make the BEST decision.  Carter Realty Group has extensive experience in all facets of the Real Estate Industry. Carter Realty Group always stays ahead of the curve.
