From the start, Katie’s number one priority was putting us first. She quickly got a feel of the style of house and the qualities I was looking for as I was buying a property living across the country. She never wasted my time, only showing us properties that met our needs. Once she helped us find our dream home, her negotiating and communication skills were top notch and her attention to every detail in the contract was to ensure we got the best deal with our home purchase. Above everything else, her demeanor and her personality exudes sweetness, friendship, professionalism and likability. That should fool no one because she will fight like a tiger for a client every step through the process. She is THE BEST!
Dora was the best realtor we’ve ever worked with — she made finding and buying the property easy and stress-free from start to finish. I would recommend Dora to anyone searching for a home in Asheville and beyond anytime. This was a great experience all around — Dora has strong knowledge of the local market, excellent communication, and great negotiation skills.
Tyler, Olivia, and Ryan were so great helping us purchase our first STR. They helped us figure out what market was really for us and find a hope that we will love ourselves as well as renters. Experience over all was exceptional.
Team knew the market well and worked hard to get a deal across the finish line
Tyler and his team did a great job of helping us find the perfect house to transform into an STR. They also helped connect us with the network of people to work with to help bring it to life. Looking forward to finding our next property with them!
Brian helped walk the property before building began, offered fantastic advice through the building process, then sold the developed property in a tough market. There are realtors and there is Brian. I’ll go with Brian every time.
Landy was referred to my husband and me, and from the very first meeting we understood why she came so highly recommended. She sat down with us and carefully explained the process of getting our previous home ready to sell. She gave us clear direction and helpful suggestions on what we needed to do to prepare our house for the market. We followed all of her advice, and thanks to her knowledge and guidance our home was successfully placed on the market looking its best. We also wanted Landy to represent us when purchasing our new home. From what we understood, it is not always common for the same agent to handle both the sale of a home and the purchase of another. When we mentioned this, she asked if we were sure. That moment actually made us trust her even more, because it showed her honesty and professionalism. Right then we knew she was the right person to guide us through both the selling and buying process. Landy was extremely knowledgeable and always willing to answer every question we had. It had been over 20 years since we last purchased a home, and many things had changed since then. She was patient with us and took the time to explain everything so we felt comfortable and confident with each step. Her communication was excellent and she always made sure we understood what was happening. She also knew the different areas and neighborhoods very well. When we looked at homes, she approached it as if she were searching for a home for herself. She paid close attention to details and truly cared about helping us find the right home. Landy also protected our interests during negotiations. She made sure selling agents did not take advantage of offers on our home, and she worked hard to make sure we asked for what was needed on the home we purchased. This entire experience was wonderful, and we are so grateful for her help. I would highly recommend Landy Swain to anyone who is looking to sell their home and purchase their next forever home.
We loved working with Lori! She was there for us all through our selling and buying experience. She answered every call and text with no hesitation. She is so knowledgeable, professional and a great negotiator. We cannot recommend Lori Ledford enough if you are looking for a great agent! You won’t be disappointed.
We’ve purchased three homes in the Asheville area with Tyler Coon, and we wouldn’t work with anyone else. Tyler isn’t just a realtor—he’s a true partner who understands our vision, our goals, and the STR market inside and out. He brings honesty, insight, and calm confidence to every deal, and we always feel fully supported and well-advised. If you’re looking for the GOAT of STR realtors, Tyler is it.
Brian helped this project from the very beginning. Giving excellent advice on how and where to build. Despite a tough market, he offered great ideas and got the property SOLD for a fair price. Couldn't be more grateful for his expertise and patience through the process. One property after another, Brian always comes through. Thank you Brian.
