Marj Carpenter

Marj Carpenter’s career in real estate began during a time of need: she needed a way to support her family and found success in a career she has come to love. Now, with over 30 years in real estate under her belt, she has made strides at RE/MAX Suburban and her success has been recognized. RE/MAX has awarded her the Lifetime Achievement Award and put her in the company’s Hall of Fame. Carpenter was also named one of the best real estate agents in America in 2013-2018 by REAL Trends and Trulia.

She credits her accomplishments to her acute listening skills and her dedication to getting any job done, no matter how difficult. Her clients say she's nice and she listen. If they have a crazy idea, she does her best to help them accomplish it if it's really something they decide they want. She's always there when they need her and does everything she can to meet their schedules and their needs. She also prides herself on her honesty. She tells them the truth. She'll tell them what they need to hear, not what they want to hear. They might not like it at the time, but they know she only has their best interest at heart.

Carpenter says one of her proudest accomplishments of 2019 was helping over 60 families and that's what her business is all about. Her biggest personal accomplishment of 2016 was being able to bring her children, grandchildren and parents to Puerto Rico for a family vacation. Similarly, she enjoys seeing her clients happy. She truly thinks it's wonderful that helped so many people last year. She did it with very little extra help and still had time off.

In 2019, she qualified for World 70.3 Ironman Triathlon Championship and said it was so fabulous to go to Nice, France to race with some of the best in the world! She hopes to qualify again soon for World Championships in another location!
