Janet is excited to bring her attention to details, her connections, and passion for helping others to help you reach your Real Estate goals, whether finding the right buyer for your home, or the right home for you! Janet’s background in hospitality and marketing in the Seacoast, has given her the opportunity to become very well connected with both the community and local businesses. Janet has extensive knowledge and experience in networking, having partnered with a national organization to open networking chapters in Northern New England to help local businesses reach their marketing goals through connections, referrals, and relationship marketing. She gained enormous respect from her peers and clients for her personal and professional approach to detail.

Testimonials
“Working with Janet has been an absolute pleasure — twice over. Four years ago, she helped me find the perfect home in the right neighborhood, and that choice paid off when it came time to sell. What sets Janet apart is that she genuinely cares about people, not just transactions. In high-stress moments, she's the one with a calm, steady head. From our first meeting, she came prepared with smart staging advice and knew exactly which repairs would matter to buyers. Her attention to detail is exceptional: scheduling was seamless, her marketing was impressive, and the professional photography and presentation of my listing were truly top-notch. If you're looking for a Realtor who is organized, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in your outcome, look no further than Janet. Working with her has been an absolute pleasure — both times.”
“Janet went abo e and beyond my expectations. She gave me great advice on staging and cleaning the property. She even assisted with a lot of the cleaning and rearranging. Her husband was also very helpful in keeping the walkways clear for open houses. I would highly recommend Janet to anyone looking to buy or sell property.”
“I have known Janet for many years, way before the thought of buying a house even crossed my mind. We reached out to her not only because she is an amazing family friend and great realtor, but because I knew we could count on her help to find a home, even if that meant getting us in touch with another realtor to go look at properties in Maine. As first time home buyers, she walked us through the entire process from the buyers agreement to the offer letter to the day we closed on our house. She went above and beyond her duties to make sure we had all the support and answers we needed. Thank you again Janet. You always will have my referral.”
“Janet was extremely helpful in getting my house ready to sell. She was also very helpful in recommending a loan agent for the house i was buying. She stood by me through thick and thin and worked tirelessly with the selling agent to keep the sale on tract.”
“Janet went above and beyond my expectations. She even went to the townhouse after I'd left the area to finalize/clean the back room in my garage. I appreciated what she did.”
“Janet Carroll is absolutely fantastic to work with, and I highly recommend her. Janet listens to what you want, and she’s very insightful at open houses. She is a strong communicator, pays attention to details, and is excellent at following up. I am very lucky to have Janet as my agent, and with her guidance I was able to purchase the perfect house for me.”
“'I recently listed and sold my house with Janet Carroll. I called the agency on a Tuesday and asked if the house could be listed & shown that weekend. Janet said yes, she would move on it, and I was impressed with her confidence. We were a team getting the house ready to show, she doing the comps, setting a listing price, taking pictures and all, and myself moving furniture, mowing the lawn, etc. Friday that week she did a preview showing for the neighborhood, with an open house house Saturday & Sunday. Monday she had three offers, one of them exceptional. The house was under agreement, and we closed Wednesday the following week. All done quickly and professionally. Janet was truly a gift - hard working, always offering advice and encouragement, it was as if I had a personal friend through what could have been a stressful time. I would recommend her to any one wanting to sell their house.'”
