					Absolutely thrilled to share our experience working with Carlos. From the very first conversation, it was clear that he was not just knowledgeable, but deeply committed to helping us navigate every twist and turn of a complex VA loan assumption. Despite frequent and unique requirements with the process from the lender, Carlos was responsive and prompt in drafting and completing documents as within a few hours of request. Beyond the technical expertise, Carlos was also just a joy to work with—genuinely kind, honest, patient, and invested in us not just as clients, but as people starting a new chapter in our lives. Though we bought remotely and sight unseen, Carlos gave us detailed descriptions of the area over multiple calls that helped us feel confident in exactly where we wanted to live. Thanks to Carlos, we are now the owners of a very first home with a locked-in, low interest VA loan that we would have never managed to assume without this kind of expert guidance. We are beyond grateful and will be recommending him to everyone we know looking to buy in the Hampton Roads area, especially veterans and service members.

Carlos went above and beyond, not only finding our perfect “forever home” house, but also doing the legwork to help us assume the seller’s loan at 2.75! Saved us a boatload of dollars! Total time from first visit to closing was just over a month. Best realtor in town - and as a veteran with a dozen moves or more, he understands how military PCS moves work. He listens, he shows empathy, and he works nonstop to find you the best options available. Call him!Cardo Homes at RE/MAX ULTRA (owner) - 2024-08-30
Thank you Doug! It has been a complete pleasure helping you and your wife find the right home at the right price!

					Carlos was a great help to my wife and I in finding our house. We moved from out of town. Carlos went above and beyond by picking us up from our hotel to look at houses. Once we closed on our house, he picked up our keys for us so we could move right in when we moved. He made our house hunting and moving experience hassle free, and he found us the perfect house at the perfect price. And after we moved in, he checked on us and helped by loaning us tools and offering his handy advice.

					Carlos is the BEST!!! Highly recommended. He was our agent when we bought our house. We were new to Hampton Roads and he helped us find the perfect home and neighborhood that fit our lifestyle. When it was time to sell we didn’t look any further. He again helped us like he was our Godfather, no kidding. Btw, this was our 4th house and no agent had ever helped us the way he did.

					Carlos Cardo is extremely well versed in his real estate business. He has very strong ties to the community and is resourceful for all of the twists & turns inherent to buying/selling and previously managing properties. He helped my family get away from a potential real estate money pit with plenty of cash in our pockets to put tons of debt in the rear view mirror. We will definitely call on him again in the future!

					Carlos was terrific from the get go. For a first time homebuyer he made the extra effort to educate on the entire process. Always had our back noting good points on properties and cautioned us on what to be on the lookout for. The tips and advice he offered were invaluable and demonstrated many years of experience. All of which helped us to make an informed decision on finding and securing the right home.   Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a home in the Norfolk/Portsmouth/VA Beach/Chesapeake area.

					First of all, if you’re looking for the BEST look no further. We moved from out of state and basically had to purchase a home within a 2 month period. We were STRESSED. Looking for houses in a state you don’t live in is almost impossible and on top of that this market didn’t help. Carlos was amazing and went out of his way to show us houses wherever they were and gave us ALL the details. He showed us the neighborhood and the streets leading to it, he gave a tour of the house that was detailed and looks at every nook and cranny. He never pushed us to purchase a home we didn’t like. He told us not to give up hope and even had a backup plan if we didn’t find a home in our time frame. We ended up with a home right on time with a week to spare! I cannot thank Carlos enough for all of his hard work and dedication to his clients. We are truly grateful!

I was referred to Mr. Cardo by a family member who had used his services. They explained that he was a professional, with a great work ethic. From the moment we talked on the telephone I felt secure that he was the right Realtor for me. Carlos provided me with solid guidance and advice in my journey to find my forever home. I would recommend him to anyone that wants someone that shows compassion and understanding.  Thank you, Carlos for everything.Response from the owner - 2022-05-19

					Sold a Single Family home in 2019 in Mears corner, Virginia beach, VA. Whether you are selling or buying a home, Carlos Cardo is simply the standard to be emulated by realtors.  He managed my rental property for 15 years and then helped me sell the property.  Through the past 15 years, there were many expensive maintenance issues that required solutions.  Carlos knows EVERYBODY in the Hampton Roads area.  He knows who can get any home maintenance job done for the best possible price.  I’ve replaced the roof, HVAC, Appliances, crawl space plumbing, windows, flooring, etc;.  Carlos is the real estate QB you want on your team.  When it was time to sell the house, he went to work and got the job done quickly and flawlessly. He comes with my highest recommendation for anybody needing a realtor in the Hampton Roads community.

					Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2019 in Pembroke, Virginia beach, VA. I used Carlos to sell and purchase my recent home as well as selling and purchasing a previous home.  On the selling end he held many open houses for me and gave plenty of feedback on home visits.  On the purchasing end, He made himself very available to show me houses for several months until I found just the right home.  Carlos is very knowledgeable on the construction, maintenance and possible updates one needs to know about when purchasing and owning a home.   I know that Carlos would continue to help me if I needed advice on my home in the future.  He really does care to do a great job.

					Sold a Single Family home in 2019 in Mears corner, Virginia beach, VA. Carlos did an amazing job throughout the entire process of assisting my family in preparing our home for market, listing and selling it.  I retired from the military and relocated out of state and Carlos provided an unparalleled level of support as if I were right there with him.  We received a full asking price and provided a beautiful home to another military member to enjoy and raise a family in.  Thank you so much for everything you do for our service members and families.

Carlos made sure we were clearly informed every step of the way so we always knew what to expect. His many years of experience along with his long list of real estate qualifications proved to be essential in the smooth and successful sale of our property.Response from the owner - 2021-05-19
