Goes above and beyond

I’ve been working with Steve and Ashley for years now. They’ve helped us with personal property and investment property. Very knowledgeable and helpful. We love working with them.

Prepared and thorough

My first impression of Stephen was, "Wow, this guy is prepared!" He came to our first meeting having done research, and set my expectations well. Stephen was easy to communicate with and always seemed available when I needed to ask a question. I would 100% work with Stephen again.

Best first time homebuying experience...

Ashley Nilsen was sooo amazing. She is very knowledgeable and what she didn't know she directed me in the right direction. The process of buying a home can be overwhelming, Ashley walked me thru each step and was always available. There also was so many occasions that she was literally in my head. Always on the same page. I would definitely recommend her services and utilize her again if I am able to purchase more property in the future.

Stephen is Professional & Knowledgeable

Stephen was professional, very knowledgeable about real estate and made the process of selling my home a good experience. He was always available in person or by phone to answer my questions or to get things done. My house sold in a few months and I am very happy with Stephen as my agent. I would certainly use him again in the future. I highly recommend Stephen as your agent if you’re selling or buying!

An absolute advocate

A good realtor is worth every dime is what I have learned. It felt fantastic to have someone who was willing to answer any questions and keep me updated on every move being made as it related to the property. My wife and I would without doubt choose him again if we were to purchase or sell another property. 5 🌟 He has a ton of market experience in my area and did a lot of showings on my behalf. Professionalism was always on display in our interactions and every member of my family enjoyed their interactions with him. He would frequently communicate with me by all methods text , email , and phone . He would always say " when it's convenient for you" when it was time to discuss anything related to the property.

Great Experience!

I really can't say enough good things about Ashley Nilsen. She picked up on our style and taste quickly. She diligently showed us everything we were interested in. It was a long process but we finally made it to closing. She was a saint working with the other realtor that was hard to get along with. Ashley was very professional and gave us great advice on that professional level. We would highly recommend her and her team to anyone who needs a good realtor.

Great Experience

Stephen went above and beyond selling our home. After helping us set the price, we had an offer withing days, for the full asking price, with closing just five weeks later. We had moved out before the offer, and Stephen kept us fully advised of the sale and also helped us when we required some local help to take care of a few small items. This was not our first home sales or purchase, and Stephen truly went above and beyond for us. We cannot recommend him enough.

Beyond Expectations!

Beyond Expectations!

Last year, during a very tricky market, we were simultaneously selling our Swansboro home and buying a home in Greenville. Here is what makes Steve a cut WAY above the rest: 1) Honesty/integrity- he wasn’t just trying to quickly sell us a home. Rather, he was always looking out for us to make sure we got the right home at the right price. 2) Communication- if you text or call Steve, he will always get right back to you if he can’t take your call. I don’t think we ever waited more than an hour to hear back from him, and most times, it was immediate. 3) Coaching (for lack of a better term)- Steve coaches you through the entire home buying process. Buying and selling a house can be overwhelming, but Steve is so helpful in moving his clients from a state of overwhelm to an attitude of, “I can do this!” I have known a lot of real estate agents over the years, and I can honestly say, there is simply no one better in this industry than Steve Nilsen! If you are buying or selling a home in eastern North Carolina, look no further!

Steve is an essential part of my team. He’s guided me through many transactions over the past six years. There’s no one I would trust more to advise me in purchasing or selling real estate. He is a very knowledgeable, no pressure advisor.

Communicative and helpful

Stephen helped sell my property quicker than anticipated; it was in a more rural area and there were three tenants to coordinate with but he was very communicative and helpful

Excellent Service

Excellent Service

We were extremely happy with our service by Steve. We had a very tough sale based upon our home's unique remote location and no similar homes like ours nearby. Steve presented a creative strategy and approach in having our home marketed and exposed to potential buyers. Him and his team took excellent care of us as if we were family! They made sure all visitors respected our property while on the market whether they were buyers, agents, service people or other professionals. He ensure we received all offers and provided we placed consultation along the way. We really enjoyed our representation and would definitely use Steve again in the future. Thank you again Steve for an excellent job well done. Much love and appreciation. ~The Trent's / Corey's

Steve and Ashley were wonderful right from the initial meeting. Very down to earth and relatable. They took the time to listen and understand everything that was going on with selling our family home. Steve went above and beyond when unforeseen circumstances happened. Estates can be messy, but he guided my family and helped us make the right decisions. The home sold quickly and smoothly and he was always there to answer any crazy questions or concerns I had. I highly recommend the Nilsen team for selling a home. They'll be right with you all the way! Thank you both so much!
