Bought a Vacant Land home in 2020 in Bolivia, NC

4/28/2020

Highly likely to recommend |5.0

We worked with Steve in January and February of 2020. He was outstanding to work with on our land and build purchase. Steve spent time getting to know us and what our property goals were for our North Carolina purchase. Steve was responsive, understanding, knowledgeable and very kind. We trusted Steve throughout the entire process, would use him again and highly recommend him!

Agent: Stephen Prokop

Bought a Vacant Land home in 2019 in Bolivia, NC

Steve was very informative and helpful in providing local information. He stayed focused on my request and offered both positive and negative feedback, which helped me make decisions. He steered me away from potential problem areas and showed me exactly what I was looking for.

Steve was very responsive to my many questions throughout the purchase process and he continues to stay involved, helping me through the design and build stages.

I have and will continue to recommend Steve to anyone looking to relocate to this area of NC.

Thanks Steve!

Showed home in 2022 in Wilmington

Me and my family just spent the weekend being driven around by Seth in an effort to explore the Wilmington, NC and surrounding area real estate market. Seth provided key data on community size, dates of build-out, builder info, and provided a comprehensive list of communities to review in lead-up to our visit. He was responsive on the phone, email, and text. With Seth’s guidance we narrowed down our list of choices from over a dozen communities to three, all of them being strong contenders for when we move. We will definitely seek to work with Seth when it comes time to purchase property.

Bought a Single Family home in 2020 in Carolina Shores, NC

My husband and I were thrilled to have Sarah Herald as our Realtor when buying our Carolina Shores home. She responded very quickly to every email, text and phone call, gave us great advice, and got us a great value on our new home. She works VERY hard for her clients and best of all, gets results! You won’t go wrong with Sarah as your Realtor.

Bought a home in 2020 in Belville, NC

The BEST! We got him by sheer luck! We were contemplating buying land and building. A year and half prior to buying. When we decided to get serious and look for houses, we had already looked around. My husband told me of one more house. We were at the house and saw a sign in the yard, called, and they sent Johnnie. He’s the nicest person you will ever meet. Honest, very helpful, not pushy, and knows the business!
We really appreciate all he did for us,
The Deans

Agent: John O'Conner

Bought and sold a home in 2021 in Sunset Beach, NC

We recently used Sarah for a sale in 12/2020 and a purchase in 08/2021.
She was excellent, always available and never kept you waiting for something. She was efficient and knowledgeable. With us being from out of state, she went above and beyond helping with the little things that needed to get done that were really outside the scope of what agents generally do. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great agent.

My husband and I have owned property in Brunswick Plantation

My husband and I have owned property in Brunswick Plantation for many years. Due to various circumstances, we never moved there and ended up in Arizona. We tried to sell the property two different times to no avail. A couple of months ago, we received a card from Jeff Lott and decided to try this one more time. We agreed on a reasonable price and within a short time Jeff had an an offer for our property. The timing was right and we were happy to proceed with the sale. Jeff has been an absolute pleasure to work with, a great personality, sales experience and competence. Thank you to Jeff for taking care of us. It has been a pleasure, and I would gladly recommend him for anyone needing a great realtor.

Bought a Condo home in 2021 in Calabash, NC

We met with Seth in 2019 when he showed us condos in the Calabash area. On that visit, we didn’t find what we were looking for. We never forgot Seth because he was great. He was friendly, no pressure and understood what we were looking for. We continued to look on line and in 2021 we found what we wanted. There was no doubt who we wanted as our agent, Seth Barbee. We were truly blessed to have found him, Seth is EXCELLENT at his job. We don’t hesitate to recommend him. You, too, will be pleased with his work and work ethic.

Bought a Single Family home in 2020 in Sunset Beach, NC

I love working with Sarah on the purchase of my house lot! She is very knowledgeable about the area, very willing to work on my behalf and is still helping me after the fact. I will definitely enjoy living in the neighborhood that she serves and I will absolutely be referring my friends to her!
