I chose Caroline because I have seen her work for the past 18 years. My daughter bought and sold many homes using Caroline in the past. Caroline has always gone above and beyond in every aspect. When our children were small before a showing Caroline would come and help us tidy up before hand. She has always been prompt in all correspondences. Our house was listed on May 1, 2024, we left Wilmington to relocate to Ohio. We had our security cameras still active in and outside the house. Just before we listed our home, we had to leave for Ohio. We had a backsplash we had not had a chance to do. On our indoor cameras we saw Caroline installing our backsplash at midnight!!! I do not know of any other realtor that would be putting up a backsplash AT MIDNIGHT. She staged our home beautifully , at no additional cost. They made sure our house was perfect for every showing. Her entire team is STELLAR! This team is the best of the best. The entire team is hands on. We highly encourage everyone to call their office. They will always have your best interest in mind.

Caroline Dugas is a remarkable One Of A Kind amazing realtor and co-owner of Living Seaside Realty. She has constantly exceeded my expectations whether I was buying or selling any of the homes I’ve lived in since moving to Wilmington. As my needs have changed during the past ten years, she has always gone above and beyond in guiding me toward what’s best for myself. I continue to be extremely impressed with her hard working, tireless commitment to her clients from start to finish, her caring attitude, cheerful personality, extensive knowledge, professionalism and 24/7 accessibility along with her incredible support team of Tania, Myra and Shane. Caroline and her team are extraordinary…the Best of the Best and will roll up their sleeves to help in any capacity that’s needed. With each of the four homes that she’s sold for me, we priced them at the high end of their market value and they quickly went under contract at near or above asking price because of her staging talent, attention to detail, problem solving, marketing expertise, patience and calm demeanor. With each of the homes that she’s helped me purchase, she had the patience of a saint while negotiating my offer to the seller. Meeting Caroline Dugas ten years ago was a blessing to have found someone I could trust implicitly with my real estate needs and she has continued to be the epitome of trustworthiness as long as I’ve had the privilege to know her. I respect her, admire her, appreciate her and love her for the blessings that she’s brought to my life. Wish I could give her more than the 5 maximum stars because that’s not nearly enough for her level of excellence!!!

We worked with Caroline a few years ago and did not hesitate to reach back out for her assistance with another property. Caroline is extremely knowledgeable about the market, down to very specific neighborhoods and what they offer. She makes sure she understands what you are looking for and what is most important. Besides her market experience she knows how to connect clients with other reps such as insurance and more.

It's rare you run into someone who is a literal expert at what they do...many are good, and few are exceptional. Caroline is just that. She knows the market, the buying and selling processes, inspections, appraisals, financing, closing, moving, staging...every aspect of real estate, and knows excellent resources in the associated fields to refer one to (her mortgage team is also THE BEST!) We felt supported, informed, and represented to the fullest extent across the entire selling process. KUDOS to Caroline!

Caroline has experience and knowledge of the Wilmington area and has great insight on builder quality, including functionality and characterized details of the home. She was amazing, kind, and super fun to work with. I appreciate her diligence and efforts in finding the right fit for our family. We are forever grateful for her and so blessed to have been connected with her immediately upon our search, moving from Charlotte to the Wilmington area. She helped make our big move less stressful by connecting us with the right people and places to accomplish our dream! She is simply the best!

I met Caroline and her staff several years ago when my husband I sold our home and bought a new one with her help. I have recommended her to other people and she has sold their homes. Her ability to stage a home is absolutely amazing. Her knowledge of the market is spot on. She works very hard for her clients and is very honest with them. She is the only realtor that I will work with or recommend to my friends.

Fantastic service and wonderful experience

Caroline was an excellent agent for me: beautiful staging of the house, tactful and professional handling of negotiations, and extremely pleasant to work with. She gets an A+ in my book!

Caroline is, without a shadow of doubt, the most dedicated, educated, thoughtful, and wonderful agent you can ask for. She went above and beyond during our home search, always taking care to notice the smallest details and making our experience less stressful. She was always on top of everything including communicating with the other agent and bank and anyone else we worked with. She was readily accessibility to answer our most silly and annoying questions at anytime. By the end of the sale, she feels like family! We can’t recommend her enough!

Caroline and her team were amazing! I had a really good experience and would highly recommend her representation. She stayed on top of things, kept me informed, and always responded promptly with sage advice. She greatly helped me navigate my home sale during a tough time in the market. I was well-informed and felt confident in my decision making process with her at my side. Additionally, as I was an out-of-state home owner, she and her team helped make extensive repairs and upgrades to my home at very reasonable costs. She also provided great staging (at no extra cost!) and knew just what my home needed to look its best during showings. I can't give her enough kudos for her hard work. She really went the extra mile for me and made my life easy throughout the selling process. She will forever be the yard-stick I measure other agents by. Thanks, Caroline!

Caroline did an amazing job representing me as a buyer. Each of the houses we visited had features that were on my list of criteria. She has an eagle eye to spot things sellers are trying to hide, and her knowledge about what needs fixing far surpasses that of realtors who represented me in the purchase of my last two homes in Colorado and NJ. She stays on top of all the details and made the home buying process so easy for me! I recommend Caroline without any reservations! Her skills are impressive -- she highly professional; she knew far more than my previous realtors regarding neighborhoods, risk of flood, and which physical issues were deal breakers as opposed to those which I could handle. Caroline knows all the issues and does a fabulous job of explaining terms, explaining the process, and sharing her thoughts and expertise on improvements. Caroline made the home buying process really fun and incredibly easy. I recommend her highly!

Caroline Dugas is not only a consummate professional, she is also a kind, caring and empathetic individual. She recently assisted us in the sale of a home, and all of her advice and suggestions were spot on. In a newly challenging market, the house sold for full asking price (which was actually more than I’d hoped for) and quickly, within two weeks. Communication with Caroline was always great - most texts were responded to instantly, and she was always patient and understanding with my nervous queries (I’m the anxious type). And the few times I needed to communicate with someone from her team, I experienced the same promptness and professionalism. Caroline always made me feel that our house was her sole focus, and I truly felt that our best interests were uppermost in her thoughts at all times. I recommend her enthusiastically and wholeheartedly - you will never find a better Realtor.
