Sonora Carter brings deep local expertise and personalized service to every transaction. Whether you’re buying, selling, renting, or investing in Back Bay, Beacon Hill, South End, or South Boston.
I grew up moving frequently while my father was in medical school, an experience that shaped my understanding of how important a home is to feeling safe, comfortable, and grounded. That perspective naturally led me to a career in real estate, where helping people find a place that truly feels like home is at the center of my work.
After graduating early from UMass Amherst with a degree in sociology, I moved to Boston to begin my professional career. I now specialize in Back Bay, Beacon Hill, South End, and South Boston, guiding clients through the market with clarity and confidence.
I live in Somerville with my wife and our dog, and outside of work I enjoy spending time outdoors, solving puzzles, discovering great local breweries, practicing Pilates, and getting to the beach. As an agent, my approach is straightforward: I aim to be a trusted advisor who delivers real value, not just someone focused on closing a sale.
From first-time homebuyers to seasoned investors, I guide you through every step of finding and securing your ideal Boston property.
Strategic pricing, professional marketing, and skilled negotiation to help you achieve the best possible outcome for your home sale.
Navigate Boston’s competitive rental market with access to exclusive listings, lease negotiation support, and local expertise.
Comprehensive leasing services including tenant screening, rental valuation, and property marketing to maximize your investment.
