Vanessa Parra

Buying her first home was more than just a milestone for Vanessa - it was the spark that launched her career in real estate. That experience showed her firsthand how exciting and rewarding homeownership can be, and now she’s dedicated to helping others feel that same joy, especially first-time buyers.

Vanessa brings a strong background as a Paralegal in both personal injury and immigration law. Her legal experience sharpened her communication and organizational skills, giving her the ability to guide clients with clarity, patience, and attention to detail. She knows how important trust and consistency are in building lasting relationships, and she carries that into every real estate transaction.

Raised in Willimantic after moving from the Bronx at age seven, Vanessa knows Eastern Connecticut inside and out. She still makes frequent trips back to the Bronx to visit family, but Connecticut is where she and her husband are raising their energetic three-year-old son. Family time often means visiting local farms, fairs, or exploring restaurants across the state in search of new flavors.

Outside of real estate, Vanessa enjoys camping (Lake Champlain is a favorite spot), traveling both near and far, and diving into books—Atomic Habits is currently at the top of her list. She has traveled to Italy, Mexico, Jamaica, and across U.S. cities like Boston, Atlanta, and Las Vegas. A lifelong learner, Vanessa also plans to pursue a professional degree in law in the future.

Bilingual in English and Spanish, Vanessa is passionate about making the dream of homeownership accessible to more families. Her motto is simple but powerful: “Just do it. Don’t fear the next step — every action moves you forward.”

Vanessa chose to join Carl Guild & Associates because of the mentorship, support, and culture of growth that helps new agents thrive. Inspired by Carl’s videos and the brokerage’s reputation for innovation and guidance, she’s excited to start her journey surrounded by a team that’s as committed to client success as she is.
