Carmela de Brouwer’s qualifications exceed expectations and — combined with her warm, authentic yet professional demeanor — provide an edge when it comes to the purchase or sale of distinctive Los Angeles area homes. Fluent in four languages, successful as an entrepreneur, and personally involved in the purchase, sale, renovation and rental of several of her own homes, she brings multi-cultural, business, and real estate experience to every home search, marketing and transaction. In addition, as a current resident of the La Cañada Flintridge and, previously, a resident of Malibu for more than a decade, she offers superb knowledge of those real estate markets. The mother of two children, she is familiar with La Canada area and Malibu schools and the quality education they offer.

Persistence, perseverance, genuine positivity, and fortitude are vital though often absent attributes of all but the most successful real estate professionals. Those are among Carmela’s most outstanding attributes, recognized by her clients and colleagues alike.

Carmela is a strong believer in giving back to her community as well. In addition to having volunteered at her children’s schools, she supports the La Cañada-Flintridge Educational Foundation, has volunteered at Mattel Children’s Hospital UCLA, and for the last 8 years have been involved in www.Mendingkids.org as one of its Board of Directors and helping with their missions in South America.
