About

Hello, my name is Anita Carlson and I have been a Realtor for over 21 years. I am licensed in Arizona, California, and Washington state. I live in the Pacific Northwest and love the area.

I enjoy helping sellers and first-time home buyers, as well as seasoned buyers and investors. In today's market, you need someone on your side to understand the system, protect you in your purchase or sale, and be there to guide you and help you in the process. You need someone with experience and availability and that is ME!

I love my job and I love helping others! Call me and see how I can make this a smooth transaction with my team of lenders and escrow/title companies. We make things happen! I am available 7 days a week.

Ratings & Reviews

Colleen C

"MONEY TALKS! Anita knows the market and puts in the work to find the best comps to maximize seller’s profit. We had two other realtors view our property before selecting Anita. She suggested listing the property at 18% more than the first realtor and 13.5% more than the second realtor, both of whom said they had trouble finding comps and would be testing the market. Anita had comps at her suggested listing price within a couple of hours after viewing the property and sold our home in just two and a half weeks with THREE full price offers on the same day! Anita was confident in her pricing, was calm and collected throughout the entire process, stood her ground throughout negotiations, responded within minutes of every text, answered our questions fully and she effortlessly guided us through the sale of our first home. She delivers and is our realtor for life! "

"Top notch and goes the extra mile! Anita helped sell our house in the spring and when we found out the county wouldn’t let us build on our land we called Anita to help us find a new place. I had certain requirements for me and the horses then my husband had his own which limited many options for us but she never gave up and we just closed yesterday! I highly recommend Anita for any of your buying or selling needs if you want an agent to go the extra mile!"

Colton B

"Anita Carlson is fantastic and helped us every step of the way! The market was crazy when we decided to buy a house, but Anita fought tooth and nail for us and in the end we found the perfect home! We would recommend Anita and Van Dorm Realty to anyone looking to buy or sell a home! "

Laura W

"Anita has sold 3 homes for us and done an amazing job each time!! She delivered what she told us and more! She puts in over 100% effort and is very professional. We also enjoyed getting to know her. She is a genuine person with integrity and a fun personality. I have recommended her to several friends!"

Gary K

"Anita had been great in navigating us through this crazy real estate market. She was very patient as well as offering us excellent advice in the many offers we submitted until we finally were successful purchasing the home we just closed escrow on. We highly recommend Anita for your real estate business!"

Randi R

"Anita is a wonderful real estate agent. She was friendly, helpful, and funny!! She answered all our questions, put up with us asking about many different homes in different locations and helped us find our new home. She even scared us the one time by beating us to the house before we got there!! We love Anita! "

Lou H

"Anita is such a great real estate agent. She worked so hard on my behalf and she was always looking out for my best interests. She became a friend and she was always available to talk to if I needed her! I would most definitely recommend Anita Carlson to anyone who wants to sell their home. She is a true professional! Thanks so much Anita! Lou Hearnesberger"

Jean Pierre C

"Anita is very responsive and willing to work hard for her clients. That was one of the first quality I was looking for. She went above and beyond with selling our property rapidly and despite any challenges that came up, she remained professional, adjusting our market approach and left me with the best customer experience i could have received. This kind of customer service attention is rare! Thank you Anita. "

Anthony C

"It was great to work with Anita Carlson on the sale of my mother's house. She was very professional and kept us up to date on everything that was happening all along the way. When we went in with our opening "ask" for the house we honestly thought "no way we're going to get this much". We had no idea it would turn into a bidding war and what I would call a "tactical waiting game". Wow, the outcome was fantastic! We can't thank her enough for all she did. If we sell our house in the future we will definitely be calling Anita again. 100%!"

Harley C

"Very happy with the way things went while selling my home. I will be coming back to Anita again when the time comes to purchase another home"

Brian Casper

"Anita was very helpful and responsive throughout the entire process and patient with me during my search. Would recommend anyone I hear looking at buying or selling their home to contact Anita. "
