Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty, Arizona’s leader in the luxury market, is honored to welcome Carla Anaya as its newest Director of Relocation. Having already spent 20 years as Vice President of Relocation Services in New Mexico for Coldwell Banker Legacy, Anaya is eager to foster relationships and serve those in the Grand Canyon state.
Carla Anaya’s ambition shines forth as she has a proven history of client engagement and relationship
building, sales and marketing, business development, overseeing operations, managing programs,
and revenue growth. In her previous position, Carla helped her team grow annual sales from
$30,000 to $1 million over the last five years. Carla and her team have also received national awards
such as the Cartus Platinum Designation and the coveted USAA Eagle Award.
A corporate leader with abilities to promote company vision and embrace change, Carla oversaw five different areas in Albuquerque and Las Cruces New Mexico, Midland, San Angelo, and El
Paso, Texas. She was also a member of the Coldwell Banker Legacy Leadership Team, Relocation
Directors Council, Employee Relocation Council, and the Coldwell Banker Large Office Group.
Carla’s designations include Certified Relocation Professional in 2007 and Global Destination
Specialist in 2018.
Family is a big part of Carla’s life. A twin herself, Carla has been married for nearly 30 years to her
husband Michael, and they have a 21-year-old son named Stone. Some of her hobbies include
watching football, both professional and collegiate, and golfing with her husband Michael.
I feel very fortunate and I am thrilled at the opportunity to be a part of the Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty Family! I am amazed by the professionalism of the management team, grateful for the support from the owners, and heartened by all of the warm welcomes from everyone at this wonderful company.
