We recently sold our family home of 39 years with Elaine Main and Tammy Main, and I can't imagine having gone through the process with anyone else. From the very beginning, they were knowledgeable, responsive, and incredibly patient. Selling a home you've lived in for decades is emotional, and they were always there to answer questions, calm my nerves, and guide me through every step of the process. They did an excellent job marketing the property, communicating throughout negotiations, and helping us navigate inspections, repair requests, and closing. They were honest, professional, and always had our best interests in mind. Even after closing, they have continued to be available to help facilitate communication when needed, which speaks volumes about the level of service they provide. If you're looking for Realtors who truly care about their clients and will work hard from start to finish, I would highly recommend Elaine and Tammy Main. I'm so grateful for everything they did to help make this transition as smooth as possible.
From the beginning of the process until the house was sold Emily Isenhart was attentive and supportive. She has excellecnt communication skills and patiently explained areas I was unsure about. She was knowedgable about the current market which helped me in settng a price.. The house sold within 2 weeks and was very close to asking price. I would highly reccomend her!
We recently purchased a home. Lugean Hogan was our realtor. We wanted a real estate agent who would guide us, be responsive when we needed help and make us feel like we were not just another buyer. She came highly recommended. Not just from previous clients, but from other realtors as well! She is highly respected in her field. Lugean not only met all of our expectations, she went above and beyond. We have worked with many real estate agents over the years and this was, by far, the best experience we have ever had. She worked tirelessly to make sure we were getting the right home while staying on budget. Lugean is kind, generous with her time, and truly knowledgeable. We cannot recommend her enough. Thank you, Lugean, for the stress free experience you provided. We could not be happier!
Vanessa knows the market and is very proactive in her communication. Her updates were often, and she made a sometimes stressful selling process easier than expected. If you are either buying or selling, I highly recommend Vanessa Justice!
We took on the daunting task of moving from states away and Sara made the whole process virtually seamless. While her job was to help us find a house she made it her mission to find us a home that fit our families needs. Once we were under contract, Sara stayed on top of everything to make sure it all progressed smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better agent!
Christi Stallings did an amazing job for us as a realtor. We are moving to NC from out of state and were only in town for a couple of days to look at the area. Our original realtor had to cancel at the last minute due to an emergency and Christi stepped in. She did an awesome job finding us houses that fit our needs and we ultimately found our forever home on that trip. And Christi’s assistance didn’t stop there! She helped us every step of the way which wasn’t always easy since we are out of state. She also helped us find a house cleaner, someone to take care of our yard until we move in and people to help us unload some of our household goods. If you want someone who really cares about you and your family during the house buying process then Christi Stallings is the person to call!!
Ryan was a great communicator. He kept us up to date frequently. It was a very smooth transaction thanks to his work ethic.
Sharon is very responsive to communications and questions. We interacted many times over the several days of our negotiations. She demonstrated market knowledge by know what similar houses sold for in our area of interest and this was helpful in price negotiations. She was also very helpful in getting a house inspection and following up with services that could address our concerns. The next time we need an agent we will be calling Sharon Stroupe.
Selling a home from out of state can be stressful, but Vanessa made the entire process easy and worry free. She kept me informed every step of the way, handled issues that came up locally, and always responded quickly to my questions. Her knowledge of the market, professionalism, and attention to detail gave me complete confidence that my property was in good hands. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Vanessa to anyone looking to sell a home, especially if they are managing the sale from a distance.
Vanessa made selling our home easy and stress free. She kept us informed throughout the process, answered our questions quickly, and helped us get a great result. We highly recommend her!
