The Gatewoods were able to accomplish the almost impossible in a soft market. Our condo sold the day after it listed. Their photographer took some of the most complimentary pictures of our unit I've ever seen and the consistency of help and answering questions was there from start to finish. Thank you Theresa and Jon for making this WAY easier than expected!

Theresa and her husband were an absolute breath of fresh air! They helped us for months to locate just the right mountain getaway for our family. Theresa was always available to answer any questions or help in any way possible. Both she and her husband’s professionalism was beyond any we had ever worked with. We will use Gatewood for all our future real estate needs. We highly recommend-5 stars!!

Theresa has helped us on two occasions and has been nothing but fantastic. She’s experienced, knowledgeable but also shares context when you ask a question. With that, she’s timely and responsive and just flat out gets things done.

I worked with Jon and Theresa as a buyer and they represented the seller as well. They were very professional, easy to contact and they always followed up on everything as promised. They know NC real estate laws inside and out and I highly recommend them for buying and selling.

Jon and Theresa are true professionals; they know the mountain area market very well and provided us insights that make our journey fun and easy. They always walked the extra mile to insure that we knew the completed reviews of each property that we visited. They guided/championed us through the initial contract action through closing - making our journey flawless. Hurricane Helene in September 2024 caused delays in our condo's construction and closing which required much more coordination and planning. Their professionalism was paramount throughout our journey. Theresa's support/advice helping my spouse select all the colors and available features for our property was outstanding. They aggressively worked with the seller agent to insure our interest were addressed and communicated with us throughout the process. Communication was their strong point as we were not local; our condo was under construction and they frequently went by to check on it. They gave us great advised on purchasing new furniture; highlights on things to do and see in this magnificent area; and local contacts needed to help make our new home complete. I whole heartily recommend Jon Gatewood Group Real Estate as they are the very best - caring, professional, completely knowledgable, and great people.
979 Spice Creek Rd Banner Elk
Jon and Theresa worked with us for several years searching for a home and land that met our criteria. At each turn they shared their knowledge of the area, positives and negatives of each property, and value-based assessment of the property for our desires. They also shared with us their book of competent service providers. Had it not been for them we might still be looking for property. We highly recommend Jon and Theresa Gatewood.

Lyn was great, I was looking for a pretty targeted purchase in the Banner Elk/Sugar Mountain area. We found a house very quickly and went under contract almost as quick. Lyn's local knowledge, personnel she brought in (inspectors, lenders, etc) all helped with a quick close. Lyn was very responsive to me calls and texts. I would highly recommend Lyn!!
303 Sugar Top Dr Sugar Mountain
Working with Lyn was nothing short of extraordinary! From the very first conversation, she brought unmatched professionalism, warmth, and expertise to the entire process.Lyn knows the market inside and out. She guided us with smart strategies that made us feel confident every step of the way. No question were too small, and she always responded quickly with clear, thoughtful answers. We felt truly supported. She didn’t just help us buy a home — she made the experience enjoyable and stress-free.

Traci is absolutely dedicated to finding the perfect property for her clients. It did not matter how many homes we asked to see, Traci always showed up prepared with all the important property information. Traci is also very deligent to help her clients get all the other additional home services they might need once the contract is ongoing to ensure a smoth and on time closing. Very pleased with this type of concierge service.
165 Keeth Drive Foscoe
Traci is wonderful. We are out-of-state buyers and thought this would be stressful. Traci foresaw all the items that needed to be done, she kept us informed via email, phone & text, made contact with all the inspectors/workers, was onsite for all everything, worked closely with the attorney and got everything done in a relatively short period. We traveled to North Carolina for the closing just before Thanksgiving and everything came together beautifully. On top of all of this, we found a very personal touch to Traci's work. She took an interest in what we needed to accomplish, acquainted us with helpful resources in the community, introduced our children to a DELICIOUS bakery, and continues to assist us after the close which is much appreciated. Traci is a delightful, knowledgeable, efficient and resourceful realtor. We highly recommend her.
