Carrie Chen
Broker ® + Real Estate Coach
With 18 years of dedicated experience in real estate, Carrie has an unwavering passion for the industry. She approaches every client with enthusiasm and joy, eager to assist with their needs. Carrie is deeply grateful for her clients' continuous support and referrals, which reflect their trust and recognition of her commitment. Whether buying or selling a home, she prioritizes her clients' best interests. Approach each customer with the idea of helping him or her to solve a problem or achieve a goal,
Twenty-five years ago, while still a student, Carrie had the opportunity to become a Transaction Coordinator, specializing in writing real estate listing and purchase agreements for Realtors. During those four years, she honed her skills, laying a solid foundation for her career in real estate. This invaluable experience launched her on an 18-year journey as a full-time real estate agent, driven by an unwavering passion for the industry and a commitment to excellence.
As a Real Estate Broker® and Coach, Carrie’s mission has evolved. She hopes to pass on her knowledge and experience to empower fellow Realtors—especially those just starting out—to grow with confidence, serve with heart, and thrive with purpose. She believes that real estate is more than just buying and selling—it’s about leadership, growth, and impact.
Her greatest joy today isn’t just in closing homes—it’s in watching her agents become confident, capable, and truly shine. When they grow, they light up the industry—and the world—with their success.
