Caren Parker

Broker/REALTOR®

At the heart of most real estate transactions are people in the midst of a transition—job, family, and lifestyle changes to name a few.

Having a knowledgeable, trusted advisor to guide you through the process will save you time and allow you to focus your energy elsewhere.

Caren serves Orange, Durham, and Chatham counties and the surrounding areas.  Representing both buyers and sellers, Caren has experience guiding clients through everything from finding their first home, to right-sizing, new construction, investments and multi-family properties.

In addition to real estate, Caren loves sewing, hiking, cooking, and attending live music, and cheering on her son’s Ultimate Frisbee teams. Some of the ways Caren is serving the community include: Neighborhood coordinator for PORCH (local hunger relief organization), Episcopal Campus Ministry at the Chapel of the Cross, Vestry member of the Chapel of the Cross, and Merit Badge Counselor with Scouts  BSA Troop 39

Whether you are moving across the country or across town, I would love to help you through the real estate process.

What do Caren’s clients have to say?

“Shortly after relocating to North Carolina with very little understanding of the area, we were in need of a realtor who could support our search for our forever home. Caren Parker went above and beyond to make sure we had the information we needed to understand the market, the neighborhoods, and the process. She worked with our schedule and was willing to be  as aggressive and as patient as we needed. Caren Parker stuck with us through the ups and downs and after finding our home, she helped our extended family find their home as well! If you’re looking for a realtor who is as invested in finding your home as you are, Caren Parker can support your search every step of the way.”

“The thing that made us really consider Caren a true “real estate broker extraordinaire” was the weekend we found our home. My husband flew to NC to look at 10 properties located all over the Triangle area, and this all had to be done in a 2-day period. Normally this may not have been so difficult, however during a pandemic, that is quite the feat. Everything was by strict appointment times, and it had to happen precisely or we would miss our chance to look at a home. Caren made sure he made it to all the coordinated appointments without fail. I was able to FaceTime with them on their adventures in house hunting, and she always answered all my questions to the best of her abilities.

She walked us patiently through all the parts of buying a home in NC, including the negotiating and what she thought was smart, reasonable, and what was necessary or not. She made me feel just as included in all the conversations as if I was standing there with my husband. She got us the best deal and the best home we could ever ask for.

We have already referred a few of our good friends to her and will always continue to make sure we send everyone her way.  We will forever be grateful to her, and to her family for letting us consume her time, because without her we wouldn’t have been able to find our forever home.”

“What would you do if you wanted to sell your home at a time when you knew you would be 750 miles away?  Our neighbor, Caren Parker, came to mind immediately and took on the burden of overseeing painters, checking on house cleaners, getting documents to us for signing, answering questions, watering plants…and ultimately, having a contract of sale after four days on the market.  We couldn’t have been happier!”
