About us

ARC Realty was incorporated in 2012 with a single mission: to bring a personal touch back into the Birmingham real estate market. Ten years later our market has expanded, but our goals and culture are still pointing due north. Naming their company as “A Relationship Company” ARC’s four founders Tommy Brigham, Beau Bevis, Mechelle Wilder, and Dale McIntyre set out to shake up the status quo that the Birmingham market had acquired. While unified in their goals, ARC’s founders bring significantly different cultures and experiences to the table. This melting pot of leadership has created an incredibly open and integrated environment where agents feel comfortable not only in their workspace, but also in their ability to speak up and be a part of the company’s operations. ARC’s history is short, but its story is just beginning. It took two years to gain 100 agents, four to double that, and five years to become Alabama’s largest privately owned real estate brokerage. With a bias for action, willingness to evolve, and a dedication to personal relationships, the sky is the limit for what’s next. OUR MISSION To ease the home transaction experience for everyone involved To develop relationships that go beyond the sale To provide a home for agents where they feel welcomes, appreciated, and comfortable To create an environment that encourages collaboration To give our agents a competitive advantage through technology and services To play an active role in the growth of the communities we serve To curate a brand that better positions our agents to grow their business To remember that life for all of us goes far beyond these walls

Blake is the best!

Blake is the best!

We originally met Blake through a referral from my mother-in-law who worked in real estate her entire career but had retired. We originally were only in the exploratory phase of considering a new home back in 2024 but Blake was patient with us, and by 2025 we were closer to ready to buy. Blake helped us navigate what was a very tricky "seller's market" in the neighborhoods in Birmingham that we were interested in. We ended up in several bidding wars for houses that we ultimately lost but Blake was always there for us every step of the way and when we finally found the house we ended up buying, Blake was able to help make sure the offer was just right to win against multiple other offers. Likewise when we went to sell our existing home Blake's approach was extremely thorough and high-touch. He likes for a seller to have their own home inspection prior to listing the house, give them the opportunity to fix everything in advance, and greatly smooth the selling process once the home is listed. In our case we also wanted the home staged, which Blake was able to help arrange. By the time our listing went live, we had steady foot traffic and a full price, no contingency offer in less than 3 days! Even coming up with a strategy for how to price the house Blake pulled comps from around the area and also got feedback from other experienced realtors he trusted to help us price it right. Mission accomplished on all fronts! Blake is a great choice for buying and selling the biggest assets most people will ever own.

Dedication and Persistence

Dedication and Persistence

Blake is an outstanding agent in every respect. I reached out to him in late March to ask him about a property where he was listed as the seller’s agent, and I was so impressed with our conversations over text that I asked him to be my buyer’s agent. My wife and I live in Georgia, and we were looking for a secondary residence in Birmingham, so Blake did a significant amount of scouting and analyzing properties for us. For over three months, he called, sent videos, and answered countless questions via text; and he was always helpful, cheerful, and professional—even though we had several deals fall through. My words won’t adequately convey just how incredible Blake and his team are at helping buyers navigate the Birmingham real estate market. We ended up with the perfect downtown condo, and Blake’s skill in handling the negotiations ensured the deal happened. I give Blake and his team the highest recommendation possible.

Streamlined process that should be the standard to follow.

Donna showed exceptional knowledge in buyer trends that helped me in remodeling. She made the entire listing process very easy to navigate as well. I enjoyed getting her insight and felt it was drawn from many years of experience in this field. Overall I was very pleased by her character, work ethic, and dedication to making my sale work for me.
