Carol Solfanelli

Carol’s philosophy really boils down to this: She puts her clients’ best interests first. She represents them the way she would want to be represented – with knowledge, communication, commitment, and respect.

It really is very rewarding to share her wealth of experience as a former law partner, developer, and designer. As a trial attorney with over 18 years of experience and as a real estate broker with over 13 years of experience, Carol will use this knowledge to help her clients successfully close their transactions. Whether they are sellers or buyers, she gives them the benefit of her experience negotiating against top litigators, to help them get the best possible price for their sale or purchase. Carol writes strong winning contract offers for my buyers and carefully worded counteroffers for her sellers, always keeping my clients’ best interests in mind. Furthermore Carol is an AV-rated attorney, the highest possible rating in both legal ability and ethical standards awarded by her peers; her clients can be assured that Carol will follow the highest ethical standards in their transactions.

There’s more to it than that though: Carol really enjoys helping her sellers with the design of their home so that it is appealing to today’s buyers, and she has fun helping her buyers configure space so that an extra bathroom or closet can be added to their new home. She has acted as a general contractor and designed remodels of kitchens and bathrooms, with one of her kitchen designs published in Good Green Kitchens by Jennifer Roberts. Carol has seen the quality of work of and have a relationship with a number of contractors and tradespeople, like electricians and plumbers. She is able to offer their names and numbers as a valuable resource to clients. Carol has also condo-converted the building in which her husband, Michael, and Carol live, including writing the CC&Rs.

Carol can honestly say that she loves her job! She gets to spend her day meeting people and guiding them through one of the most significant transactions of their lives. Her clients often praise Carol for her responsiveness to their needs and her attention to detail - and she knows you will feel the same way if you give her the privilege of representing you in the sale or purchase of a home or investment property.
