We had an outstanding experience working with the Gretchen Coley Group, especially Claire Guentz…read moreand Julia Sawchak, on both the sale of our home and the purchase of our new one. On the selling side, Claire provided excellent guidance on staging and small touch-ups that made a big difference. Thanks to her strategy, our home sold in less than 24 hours after hitting the MLS. On the buying side, Julia was an absolute pleasure to work with--fun to tour homes with, highly knowledgeable, and refreshingly honest. She consistently looked out for our best interests, even steering us away from homes we liked when she identified potential red flags. Throughout the contract process, both Claire and Julia were incredibly communicative and made what can often be a stressful experience feel seamless and manageable. We are now happily settling in our new home and truly can't thank Claire and Julia enough for helping us get here. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home

Working with Kendall Bailey is really a misnomer-Kendall does all the work! After an initial…read morestrategy meeting-at which she was totally prepared-we decided on a price and I literally sat back and waited for the proceeds to arrive about 3 weeks later. I know the sale happened quickly not only through her marketing efforts but from her suggestions on how to prepare my home for showings. Kendall has great decorating ideas but doesn't stop there. She helped implement all her ideas by picking out replacement products. My home was modernized at an very acceptable price simply through her suggestions. And she does all the other things you expect from a broker but don't always receive: open communication, excellent response times, super negotiation skills and great market trend analysis. I 100% recommend Kendall because I know you will receive old fashioned customer service during the short timeframe it takes her to sell your home.

Tim was our realtor for two separate transactions and was the most helpful. His experience and…read moreexpertise were second to none. Our first experience was in 2022 when we sold our first home. He made the whole process a breeze and got our house sold for over asking within a week of it being on the market. We really put him through the wringer this time around while home searching. We were being really picky and saw an incredible amount of homes all over the triangle and Tim was always willing to set up a showing and walk us through each one with such detail no matter how far his drive. We really appreciated that he offered his opinion on pricing and what he would do in our position. We've now worked with Tim for both selling and buying during the real estate process and we'd recommend him for both to anyone we know! Also a side note, I don't think he sleeps because he's ALWAYS available. Text or email him at an odd hour and you'll get a surprisingly quick response which is always an added bonus.

In our journey he helped us locate and purchase our home. With his vast knowledge of the Raleigh area he provided an extra boost of confidence in us as newbies.

Bronwyn was absolutely amazing throughout our entire home-buying process. She went above and beyond…read moreto make sure we were protected every step of the way. We ran into a major issue when we found out the seller had not disclosed that the house was in foreclosure, but Bronwyn stayed on top of everything, communicated with all parties involved, and worked tirelessly to keep the deal moving forward. Her professionalism, knowledge, and dedication made what could have been a very stressful situation much easier to navigate. She always kept us informed, answered every question we had, and truly fought for our best interests. Thanks to her hard work and persistence, we were able to make the purchase happen. I couldn't recommend Bronwyn more highly to anyone looking for a realtor who genuinely cares about her clients.

These guys are amazing - if i could give 100 stars I would! As a first time home buyer relocating…read morefrom Texas to North Carolina I was very worried about getting a quality experience. Cory blew me away with his amazing service and attention to detail. After flying out and seeing some options from our short list we set our hearts on a perfect house in the Clayton area and were able to get (with Cory's fantastic help) everything we wanted in terms of reduction in purchase price, closing date and closing costs from the Seller. Cory was present at every step of of the process and seamlessly interacted with the lender, the Sellers agent and even recommending a great home inspector. I could not be happier with the care and service provided by Cory. He was patient with all my many questions and demonstrated his expertise in the housing market with each answer. I absolutely recommend these guys for any housing purchase.

We cannot say enough great things about this realtor. We worked directly with Christian Varela and…read morehe is the true definition of going above and beyond. We are first time home buyers, we knew some stuff, but definitely needed a lot of help, and Christian really took the time to make sure we understood every part of the process. He provided us with frequent updates, and we really could tell that he had our best interests at heart. He also made great recommendations for local services such as our mortgage broker (we looked around as well, but his recommendation turned out to the best and was also great to work with!), movers, landscapers, and they all had great things to say about him, too. You can tell he has taken the time to build up great relationships within the community. If you have been looking for the perfect realtor, stop looking right now because trust me you have found it here.

I had a great experience working with Jim Danna and his company, HomeVestors. Jim assisted one of…read moremy clients in a very delicate situation and from start to finish, he made the entire process incredibly smooth and stress-free. He purchased the home in cash, closed quickly, and most importantly handled everything with professionalism and care. Jim is extremely knowledgeable and did an excellent job walking my client through each step so they always knew what to expect. At no point did my clients feel rushed or pressured, which meant a lot given the circumstances. He was fair, transparent, and delivered exactly as promised. As an agent, it's important to work with people you can trust to take care of your clients, and Jim absolutely did that. I've worked with many investment companies over the years and HomeVestors is #1 on my list and my go to for cash offers. I've been very impressed with both Jim and HomeVestors and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, experienced professional who truly follows through.

I would not recommend Northside realty based off my experience with their realtor Sam Calvert and…read morehis broker Nick Nicolaysen. Sam Calvert was rude, condescending, aggressive, and completely unprofessional for months. I finally fired him after he sent threatening text messages to me for 2 hours from 9:44-11:47 on a Saturday night furious that I was unavailable to see a home on his schedule. He made inappropriate demands for access to my financial information several times. In the text messages he told me I was "bullshit", a "liar", inferred I was unable to afford the home, and said I was a bad daughter. Along with the termination agreement and explanation as to why I was firing him I also sent screen shots of all the 29 aggressive text messages to his broker Mr. Nicolaysen who took a few days to respond. I would not recommend this company to anyone.
