Construction and Real Estate
Carlos Carrera: From Construction to Commercial Real Estate
After relocating to Mankato in 1992, Carlos Carrera built his customer-service career as a residential and commercial contractor. A decade in construction gave him a practical understanding of buildings and the needs of the people who use them. Today, that background informs his work in Mankato commercial real estate.
In 2004, Carlos joined Prudential Real Estate Affiliates and earned recognition as a top-performing realtor, including the Honor Society Award. He joined RE/MAX, LLC in 2009, where his performance earned membership in the RE/MAX Executives Club and 100% Club.
His real estate work includes commercial spaces, investment properties, and land. A business looking for a location has different concerns from an owner preparing to sell. Carlos takes time to understand those differences and what matters to the people involved, then helps them consider the available options.
Carlos is an active member of the National Association of Realtors, Minnesota Association of Realtors, and Realtors Association of Southern Minnesota. He brings the same customer-service experience from his contracting years to his work with real estate clients.

A Background in Construction
Before entering real estate, Carlos spent a decade in residential and commercial contracting. That experience gives him a practical understanding of buildings, alongside his knowledge of buying, selling, and leasing them.

Away From Work
Get to Know Carlos Carrera
Outside of real estate, Carlos enjoys spending time with his fiancée and four daughters. Grilling at home, attending softball games, and cheering on band concerts are some of the ways he makes time for the people who matter most.
At work, Carlos knows that a property search or sale has to fit around everything else in a client’s life. He works around their schedules and keeps communication open throughout the process. There is plenty to discuss, from the initial search to the details of a transaction.
You do not need to have every detail worked out before getting in touch. You may be comparing locations, considering whether to sell, or still deciding what kind of property you need. Carlos can talk through those questions with you.
