When we found out the house we were renting was listed for sale, my husband and I had no idea what we were going to do. We called Carmie at Better Altitude Properties and our lives changed forever with that decision!
Carmie was so patient wth us as first time buyers! She sat down with us and explained the realities of the current market, went over all of our options in ways that we could understand, and helped us become home owners! We had so many questions! Carmie always took the time to talk to us and make sure we understood the process. Any hiccup that arose, she was right there rolling up

Personally, I really appreciate the support from the Better Altitude team in support of the sale of our residence. With divorce a background obstacle in virtually every corner, Carmie & team navigated the ongoing layers of schnitzel to get thru it all. I really thank you again!

Carmie and Glen were awesome! They took us to see quite a few properties and got to know what we were looking for. They found us a great house and worked hard at making the deal work. They also worked directly with contractors on solving problems for us. They were very responsive to all of our many phone calls and questions, and they continued to help us even after we moved in. They take great care of their customers and give excellent advice. I highly recommend Better Altitude and the whole staff.

Carmie knows Calaveras and Tuolumne Counties inside & out. Her level of knowledge and experience was exactly what my wife and I needed in order to finally find our dream cabin. She knows every property and person in the area! If and when we decide to sell or buy again there's no one else I'd want to work with. Clients for life.
