Bryan Martinez

Broker Associate

I'm Carlene Barnett, a passionate REALTOR® dedicated to making your property dreams a reality! I grew up as a “military brat” in England and joined the Air Force myself at 17. I spent valuable years serving in the military, then continued my career as a contractor working in space communication. With 5 children and 5 pets at home, I chose to become a stay-at-home mother. For years, I embraced this role, cherishing the joys of raising a family. That experience gave me a profound appreciation for the meaning of home and the unique needs of families when it comes to finding the perfect space. Once my children got older and my husband retired from the military, I chose to take the opportunity to pursue my passion for real estate. Outside of work, I love camping with my family and our golden retrievers. I enjoy doing projects around the house and yard work or just reading a book outside in the Colorado sunshine.

What can you expect from me as your agent? As an expert in real estate, military relocation, and my community, I bring a unique blend of expertise, precision, and commitment my clients. I am eager to help and advise in any way I can!

When you’re purchasing a home, I will look to find what you are looking for including all the essential criteria you have for your ideal home. I work tirelessly to negotiate and get offers accepted in a very competitive market. You may be new or experienced in this process; either way, I will assist you every step of the way.

When it's time to move, you need someone driven who will focus on you and your goals.  Buyers might not visualize living in your home the way you do. I can help make your home attractive to buyers - which can help you get top dollar.

As your trusted real estate professional, consider me a resource beyond purchasing and selling homes. I provide equity evaluations for your home, I can advise on topics such as upsizing, downsizing, when and what to renovate, how often to re-evaluate your homeowner’s insurance, and so much more.  I facilitate connections with other professionals in the industry to make sure that home ownership is as stress free and rewarding as possible!

Let's embark on this exciting journey together! Whether you're buying, selling, or just exploring possibilities, feel free to reach out—I look forward to connecting with you!

My philosophy:I believe the role of your Realtor is to guide you through the buying or selling process, taking the time to make sure you understand every step of the transaction.

Kendall Roth-Sukach

Broker Associate

Nothing Beats a Mountain View!

Prior to a career in real estate, I worked and ran the same successful Pediatric Dental office for a span of more than 20 years. Pediatric Dentistry has taught me the value of loyalty, hard work, commitment, communication and determination. In 1998 I began working as a dental assistant in Jupiter, Florida and quickly moved into a clinical leadership position. A few years later I was promoted to the position of office manager. In March 2016 my husband brought me to Colorado for the first time, and I instantly fell in love with the scenic beauty and quality of life that Colorado offers. Within six months of my visit, I picked up my family and relocated to Colorado Springs while working remotely in Florida. In Florida, I also become widely known for my lifestyle and fitness achievements. Being morbidly obese for the majority of my life, in 2009 I began the long journey of lifestyle changes. My total weight loss was 207lbs which I have proudly maintained while making it my mission to lead by example. I strive to inspire others by teaching indoor cycling & group fitness classes as well as lifestyle coaching.

As a Realtor, my first priority is to make my clients happy. I listen to my clients, wants and needs to achieve the best outcome in every transaction and strive to ensure that the home buying or selling process is fun, easy and stress-free. As a client of mine you can count on me any time of day or night when you have a question or concern.

I am a conscientious Realtor who exudes tenacity, commitment and motivation all while being contagiously positive. My passion and excitement and focus on real estate runs deep and I'm ready to help with your home buying and selling needs. As a proud member of the EXIT Realty Mountain View family, I carry the values of hard work, integrity and outstanding client service into everything I do, apparent through excellent communication skills and a warm and friendly approach.

When I'm not making home ownership dreams come true for my clients, I enjoy spending time exercising, hiking, skiing, biking, baking, and crafting. I live in Colorado Springs with my husband Jeff, our son and daughter and two dogs.
