Anastasia is a highly motivated and service oriented person who has served the needs of hundreds of people for over half her life… you don’t stay in the Real Estate business that length of time if you are not successful.

Her Real Estate career began in Ontario, Canada in 1976 and in 1981 she moved to Edmonton, Alberta, Canada and continued for 31 years until moving to Lakeside in June of 2012. Not wanting to leave her valued clientele without help in their future real estate needs, Anastasia is working with a great Realtor to refer her clientele to in Edmonton with confidence that her partner will look after them as she would herself.

The main reason for moving to the Lake Chapala area for Anastasia was the discovery of a wonderful place to retire. She wants to share that with other people in her huge sphere of influence in Canada as well as her new friends in the area. She puts a great deal of effort familiarizing herself with Lakeside and the differences in the legal details, which impact the purchase and sale and ownership of property in Mexico.

TESTIMONIAL
When we came to Ajijic to do the seminar with Ricardo and Michaela we had no idea what to expect. We did end up purchasing a home and Ricardo and Michaela did EVERYTHING they promised and MORE. This is truly amazing wherever you are! Now it is several months later and they are still a big help. We could not have made the transition to Mexico as easily as we did without the help of Ricardo and Michaela. “Bob H., USA”

I fell in love with Mexico and its people when I moved here in 2009 with my wife, Lizzie, to start a new life. Being frustrated with having no Spanish skills when I first arrived to Mexico, I was determined to be able to communicate with the Mexican community. Thanks to a great deal of patience and persistence, I’m now bilingual. I understand first-hand the challenges and, at times, the frustrations that foreigners experience when coming to live and settle in Mexico. Besides my bilingual skills, I bring to the table a strong background in customer service, sales, product management, and market research. These skills, combined with 10 years living as a resident in Mexico, have given me a unique insight to life at Lakeside and the tools necessary to navigate the real estate market successfully. Whether it is guiding and advising our clients to find their ideal property or assisting and serving clients to sell their property, I am here to help.

Sherry Carter was born and raised in El Paso, Texas where she first fell in love with Mexico and the Mexican people.

She moved to the Lake Chapala area fulfilling her goal to retire in “paradise”. Sherry had planned to retire, but after selling homes for over 30 years in the Seattle-Bellevue area, she missed the excitement of meeting new people and finding the one home that is just right for them. Sherry had the privilege to represent home owners, buyers and some of the largest and best home builders in the Pacific Northwest.

Joining Chapala Realtors gives her the perfect environment to work with brokers, agents, and staff who are professional and provide the best service in our market.

Sherry feels her move to the Lake Chapala area has been one of the best decisions of her life. “I am truly home in this beautiful location with so many friendly expats and locals. My desire is to help you find not only a house but a community where you also are ‘home’. The Lakeside area offers so many opportunities to enjoy and pursue new activities and adventures. I strive to make your home buying or selling experience easy and fun.”

Sherry is a member of the Sunrise Chapala Rotary. “I enjoy being part of an organization that truly focuses on the needs of the community.”
