Kevin and The Sold by Starkey Team could not have been more accommodating, professional, and thorough with the entire process. They understood us, our search, and timing. They responded to questions in a timely manner, knew the market, knew the needed vendors, and oversaw every step of the process. Sounds cliche, but they truly went above and beyond for us. This is a tough market for buyers, and they made our purchase happen. I highly recommend Kevin and his team for buyers and sellers, alike.

Kevin and Amanda combined with their support make an incredibly responsive and knowledgeable team! I would recommend them to anyone.
The Sold By Starkey Team was so helpful when it came to selling our first home and buying our next home. The Sold By Starkey Team helped us buy our first home and it was such an easy experience, they took care of everything for us! This is the reason we called The Sold By Starkey Team when we were thinking about making our next move. As Kevin began showing us houses on the market, Amanda was helping us get the house ready for showings, she even staged it for pictures! In the market we were selling in, houses were selling fast and we knew had to find one before we put the house on the market, timing was tricky but that didn’t stop The Sold By Starkey Team from getting it done! We were looking at several different cities and dragging Kevin all around town, sometimes with our two young ones and he was so pleasant every single time, even when I asked a ton of questions. In the end, our first home went under contract in less than 48 hours and during that same time frame we also went under contract on our new home! Throughout the process, Autumn and Kevin helped us with the paperwork and timeline of everything. We closed on both houses successfully with no delays or issues. It was truly an amazing experience and I cannot recommend The Sold By Starkey Team enough, they are the complete package!

I’m so glad that I have Kevin and the Sold by Starkey team on my side when I do business in real estate. Kevin always listens to me, helps me narrow down exactly what is important, and find what I want. We searched five counties (!!) to find what I wanted and landed the perfect home for me, in my price range, and in my deadline. He is patient, kind, and always available when you need him. I trust his judgment when it comes to where to make an investment and when to walk away. I’m a return customer and a customer for life!
Kevin and Amanda are awesome! Selling a house can be stressful but this team takes care of every little detail and helped us make the right decisions. They were always accessible when we had a question and offered suggestions that highly paid off! I'm going to miss talking with them now that the house is sold because they have become friends! Kevin helped us find our home 8 years ago and we learned then how committed he was to his career! The Sold by Starkey team is second to none. God blessed us tremendously with Kevin, Amanda and Autumn.
We were under contract quickly after the house was listed but the buyer terminated for personal reasons. The first day the house was back on the market we had an offer above asking price and we were immediately back under contact without missing a beat!
I would 100% recommend the Sold by Starkey team to anyone I know. We have worked with several of their agents in the past, but this time was Kevin. The market is so weird right now, and Kevin helped us navigate it. Trying to sell a house was not as hard as buying a house, and Kevin was there for every step of the way, every frustration, and every question. He was always courteous, and reassured us we weren't bothering him.
The Sold By Starkey team is fantastic, they tell you the truth even if it may not be exactly what you want to hear, but it is the reality of a situation. They advocate for their buyer or seller and work so hard for you.
Kevin and Amanda were awesome to work with. They were detailed about everything from start to finish. They were professional at all times, accessible any time day or night, and did an excellent job marketing our property. I would recommend them to family and friends!
Friendly, understanding, patient and calm not only during the move but the pandemic surrounding this move. We felt we could trust them and that was the number one consideration we had. We wanted to be understood and we wanted things explained to us. They did that every step of the way. As we were a military family this is the longest we have lived in one place in our life. It was a huge decision for us - we couldn’t have done this without Kevin and Amanda.
Autumn Kennard was fantastic! Helpful friendly kind on top of everything each week. Always let us know where we were in the sales process. Awesome team!
Kevin, Amanda and the entire staff are truly amazing. I felt at all times they had my best interest at heart. Kevin worked from the first contact until closing and beyond making sure I understood all that was happening. I never felt slighted or cheated. He is truly one of a kind. I know if Kevin and Amanda I have dear friends for life. Meeting them and going through all we have gone through these past few years has been wonderful. I will never think of working with another team. I know I can call Kevin anytime to run something by him and he will always be professional. They are both exceptional folks both in and out of the office. I'm very lucky to have them in my life. Thanks Kevin and Amanda for making this process so easy. I am forever in your debt for helping me make my dream come true!
Kevin and Amanda were great to work with again. We and Kevin had worked together once before when Kevin was with another agency. We interviewed a couple other agents, but Kevin and Amanda came in with a definitive game plan to sell the property. They were more prepared than the others interviewed. Having a good prior relationship helped also. Autumn was great to work with and answered any questions I had promptly and handled everything efficiently. Sold in 10 days with 5 total offers. You couldn't ask for more. They obviously knew what it took to sell our home. Great job team!
Shout out to Kevin Starkey and Amanda Fuquay Starkey for helping us get through this since day one. This was super spontaneous and we needed everything to happen quickly. Yall! I can’t recommend them enough!! They made this process so easy for me. It’s pretty confusing buying a home but they broke everything down, and kept me organized. This is our second purchase using them and our experience each time was excellent! They are knowledgeable, efficient, and prompt. They make the stress part of buying a house fun! Kevin was here every step and made sure all my concerns were taken care of. If y’all need a realtor- Kevin is your guy!! His team is amazing!

The Sold by Starkey Team did an excellent job for us. Kevin Starkey guided us to neighborhoods and houses based on our original criteria, and was very flexible as we changed the direction we originally were taking. I really appreciated his flexibility and patience.
Kevin always made himself available whenever we had a question and had the knowledge needed to answer our questions. He even made himself available to Facetime with us as our house was being built when we were still living out of state.
As we went through the process of having a home built, Kevin made good recommendations based on his experience, but he was okay if we didn't always do what he recommended.
Overall, we were very happy with the service provided and would recommend the Sold by Starkey Team. We love our new home and the neighborhood that it's in!
We interviewed 10 realtors before deciding to work with Kevin Starkey's team. I am extremely detail-oriented, and it was important to me that the realtor we chose was trustworthy, understood the local market, had reliable connections with other people throughout the process (contractors, lawyers, etc), and was able to understand and adapt to our needs.
Kevin and his team were patient, informative, and never made us feel like a burden despite the fact that I asked hundreds of questions and we viewed more houses than I remember over 7 months. I felt they had our best interests at heart, and were never pushing services that were unnecessary. They were generous, inviting us to events they held for their clients. Kevin always let us know when he would be out of town and introduced us to team members who could help while he was out. In fact, we put in an offer on a house with one of his team, looked at homes with a member of his team, and also had yet another member of his team check out a home for us while we were all out of town. Can't get better teamwork and service than that.
We would love to stay in touch with the Starkeys and have them over at our new place soon. We strongly recommend the entire Starkey team for any real estate transaction (and hope they aren't tired of us in case we have to sell one of these days)!
Kevin was very helpful through the entire process. He had all the answers we needed and guided us the whole time. We are very thankful to have had the help and support from the entire team. I would recommend the team to anyone looking for professional help in selling their home. We couldn’t have done it without them.

The Sold By Starkey Team was truly a dream to work with. This was our first experience selling a house and Kevin (and Amanda) went above and beyond to make sure we were informed, comfortable, and prepared every step of the way. When we first inquired about selling our home, we were unsure of our timeline. Even with this knowledge, Kevin treated us as if we were his best and only customer. We truly did not know where to begin in preparing our home to list and Kevin expertly guided us while making us feel empowered to make the choices that were best for our needs. His patience and attention to detail are unmatched and he made what could have been an extremely stressful process flow as smoothly as possible. As a result, we had multiple offers over asking price on our first day of listing! Doesn't get any better than that.
When anyone is contemplating on selling or buying a home, trust and an honest hand that leads you to your goals is what I think most are looking for. Kevin, and the entire Sold By Starkey team, provided my sister and I with thoughtful direction, honest insight, and was available whenever we had questions along the way.
Throughout entire process, from first getting an idea about how to get our home prepped for a showing, to closing on the transaction, excellence was sustained, which is something my sister and I appreciated a great deal. Sold By Starkey made a plan and executed it to precision. We got an offer in just a couple of days of showing the property.
We are grateful for their efforts and would recommend this team to anyone interested in buying or selling a home. Thank you all!
Kevin did an excellent job helping me find my home! There's not enough room about the good things that I could say about his professionalism and knowledge. I have and will continue to highly recommend The Starkey Team. Kevin, I appreciate you making this home buying process easy for me!
We had an A+ experience with Sold By Starkey. I knew Kevin was very familiar with the area, having grown up here, and having known Kevin for a few years I also knew that he possesses several personal qualities that make him incredibly well-suited for the job -- including trustworthiness, patience, diligence, and empathy. Throughout the entire process, we were so impressed (but not surprised) by how well Kevin and the Sold By Starkey team took care of us. They made our experience as first-time homebuyers easy and seamless. We would definitely give the Sold By Starkey team our highest recommendation to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!
Sold by Starkey is a great team who obviously enjoy their work and take interest in determining the individual needs of each client. They provided timely, accurate, and thorough communication with me throughout the sell of my previous and purchase of my new homes.
We checked into the realtors that buy houses as they are without repairs and into some that appear on the surface to charge less commission. We did a considerable amount of research on those places and decided we wanted to go with a traditional realtor. We wanted our house to show well and we needed assistance in deciding what repairs or updates would be necessary. Once we made the decision to go with a traditional realtor there was only one we would consider. We have known Kevin Starkey for many years and have watched him grow as a very successful realtor.
I can’t say enough about the Sold By Starkey Team. They are the best!
Kevin and Amanda helped us every step of the way. I cannot imagine doing this move without them. They gave us suggestions and encouragement (it’s not easy moving at 70). They were knowledgeable, responsive, and explained anything we didn’t understand. We had our offer above the asking price by 2 PM on the first day it was on the market. Can’t get much better than that!
The track record of the Sold By Starkey team is extremely strong as they are an honest and customer service oriented business. Their record led us to the selection of them as our listing agent.
We had no reservations about following the advice of SBS on updating and getting our house in order to sell. Their suggestions were discussed and weighed together and we developed a plan. Once the listing agreement was completed, the team started to work by preparing a timeline of tasks necessary to make the targeted date to hit the market. A market analysis was done and a sale price was decided. Everything seemed to happen easily through their professionalism and knowledge as experts.
Patience is a virtue and Kevin and team were great to walk us through every question we had, simple or complex. We are very happy that we listened to their advice throughout the process, beginning with getting the best show version of the property through negotiations that brought a sales price much higher than we thought possible. I honestly cannot think of anything that should have happened differently. The Sold By Starkey team is a well oiled professional and integrity filled team with a heart for its customers.
I cannot imagine having a better experience with any other realtor. The direct result of having the Sold By Starkey team handle the sale of our house was 17 showings in the first two days on the market with multiple offers. The team is amazing, accessible, responsive, knowledgeable, creative, thorough, respectful, and respected. I would recommend them to anyone buying or selling a home. They are the best!
