The office is nice and clean, and all of the staff very friendly. We have been in our home for 2 years, and Debbie still sends us Holiday cards, and checks to see how we are loving our home. We recommend her and Coldwell to anyone looking to buy. I only don't give them a perfect review because I wish they managed rental properties.

After Hurricane Florence here on the NC Coast, my former (rental) home had to be gutted and the prospects of finding a new home (or even storage for my belongings, because of the unique circumstances of the hurricane devastation) were dismal, according to other agents. Nevertheless (this is a true story !), one call to Margaret Hitchcock allowed me (through her efforts) to purchase a new home within a matter of hours of its listing and her follow up services were amazing (she handled everything incredibly efficiently and with minimal cost for me). Within 30 days I was relocated in my new home (delighted with it) and ... well, what else can I say ... truly amazing. I really can't say any more than that. Highly recommended is putting it lightly !

When I started looking for a second home at the coast I contacted Brooke Brown-Pollard purely by…read moreaccident. There was a home that I was interested in and when I called Brooke to discuss it she was attentive and asked a number of questions. What shocked me is that within hours she went to the home and conducted a webcam so I could review this house. Her thought was that I shouldn't waste my time driving to the coast just to review one. UNBELIEVABLE SERVICE!!!! She never tried to "sell me" a home but was more interested in finding the right home for me. Very refreshing to find a realtor that understands service and is more interested in her customer being happy than just trying to earn a commission!! I would highly recommend Brooke to anyone looking for a home at the coast!! Mike Verian; Holly Springs, NC

We went through Cannon and Gruber to lease a vacation rental. I told the Cannon - Gruber rep. that…read morewe wanted to make sure that we leased a nice clean place. The place we leased was filthy. There were numerous problems, such as no WIFI. I spoke with the Cannon - Gruber rep. and she told me that  somethings couldn't be fix because it was the weekend. She also told me the best that she could do, to fix the WIFI, was to give me the instructions. She said that she would email the instructions. Which she never did. Why should I have to fix their WIFI? The only thing that she tried to fix was the missing blind slats in the master. For us, this was a one time shot weekend and the rental didn't even come close to what we expected.

I expect a professional who will engage with me, listen to my needs, know when to educate and how to seize the moment for the right deal. Because he is so knowledgeable on many levels, he made it a seamless experience. The seamless experience includes his network. I do not think he ever met a stranger, and he pulls his network in to go over and beyond with service even after the close. I flew in and had to work the same day and instead of being stressed Ric had set up my internet ready to go with password. He made sure it was professionally cleaned and anything that needed tweaked for my liking completed by his professional resources. I not only gained a beautiful new home, but a friend in Ric and all his friends too! Now, all that underscores Ric is a unique professional, so is there any reason you don't deserve all that personable professionalism too?
