    About Stephanie Fillinger

    Growing up, I spent many summer vacations and winter weekends with my parents and siblings in Tahoe, always yearning to come back for more time in these mountains and crystal clear waters of Lake Tahoe. I was lucky enough to spend my full first winter in Tahoe in 1993, moving here full time in 1995 after graduating CU Boulder, and have called North Lake Tahoe and Truckee home ever since. After 5 years in the hospitality industry, I moved into Property Management, managing multiple Homeowner Associations - ranging from small condominium complexes to large luxury home communities. Learning the benefits and hindrances of various types of properties, Property Management proved to be an excellent jumping point for me to transition into Real Estate full time in 2005. I use my foundation in property management and customer service to provide clients with an experience driven by a strong work ethic, attention to detail, personal service and results. Having lived in various locations on the North and West Shores of Lake Tahoe, my husband Jeff and our two daughters now reside in the Ponderosa Palisades neighborhood in Truckee. We are a typical Tahoe family, spending winters skiing at Palisades Tahoe or in the back country, summers on the lake and hiking or backpacking in the mountains. Long weekends are spent camping at local music festivals with other families whenever we can. My Real Estate Business is much more than just buying and selling homes. Many of my clients are second home owners who can't be here as much as they would like to. I act as their eyes and ears, a trusted local resource, someone who they can count on for help and advice. When I had the chance to join the team at Carr Long Real Estate, I saw it as an opportunity to enhance my abilities to help my clients, both in terms of greater marketing outreach and collaborative team of trusted local resources to draw on. I would love to help you find your own piece of Tahoe to call home, build lasting family memories or simply to get away, unplug and connect with the great outdoors.
    HOBBIES/INTEREST
    I love to explore the outdoors - I am an avid skier, backpacker, mountain biker and hiker.
    FAMILY
    I am married with 2 beautiful girls, Choe (15) and Violet (12).

    We LOVED working with Steph!! Shes top-notch in her craft, she provides a white glove approach, and I would give her a 11/10 if I could. As first time home buyers, we felt that Steph actively listened to who we are as a couple and what we wanted in a home. In a competitive market, she lined up 13 homes for us to view in one day. It sounds crazy, but shes the type of person who will ride the highs and lows with you, She made us feel special and supported throughout our experience. Steph is extremely knowledgeable of the market - She is consultative every step along the way. We landed in a home and neighborhood that matched what we were looking for. As weve gotten to know the community, she is well-respected and people love her! Thank you Steph for your hard work and commitment to your clients!

    Stephanie made the homebuying experience a breeze. She was always available to help with any questions we had along the way and really knew the area and market well. I would 100% recommend Stephanie to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

    Due to the pandemic, I was unable to travel to Tahoe to get my dated cabin ready to sell. Despite living in a different country, with Stephs help I embarked upon a remodel to update the house. She was instrumental in helping me transform the place and leave it looking better than ever. Her staging was absolutely above and beyond and really made the house shine. I am confident I got top dollar and couldnt have done it without her. Thanks Steph!

    See met Steph maybe 2 years ago when we first started looking for a potential place at Northstar. She was very friendly, professional and very knowledgeable with the area. When we saw another property we were interested this year, we reached out to Steph again. Even though the property was pending by then, Steph was still very willing to help show the place. We eventually found another place with Steph?s help. She checked on us after closing and also shared a lot of local knowledge and resources with us which is awesome as we are new to the area. Thanks Steph!

    Steph deserves 10 stars. My list of requirements was not an immediate fit for the inventory of the Tahoe area. Over 6 months, Steph introduced me to the area, provided background on the communities, showed me available inventory as it became available, and - importantly, provided able and timely support in getting information and making offers. Her willingness to abide my process of discovery and readiness for action were greatly appreciated throughout the experience. She was always available and accommodated my schedule of periodic visits to the area.
