“I would and have recommended Michele Wilson to anyone looking for a home in the Research Triangle. Having been a realtor for over 19 years, she is extremely knowledgeable of the area and was always available for any question. Not only does she know homes, but she has also been a referral source for several local contractors. She goes out of her way to assist clients! Thank you, Michele!”
“My realtor was amazing—knowledgeable, patient, and truly dedicated. Highly recommend!”
“Working with the Sold By Starkey team was an incredible experience! They worked tirelessly from the moment we began our search to the day we closed on our new home. Kevin truly understood what we were looking for and consistently guided us in that direction until the Sold By Starkey team found the perfect fit for us. Their deep passion for what they do and the clients they serve is evident in every interaction. I’m so thankful to have had the opportunity to work with such a trustworthy, patient, and compassionate team, and I would recommend them to any friend or family member looking to make a move!”
“Pamela began working with us and within 48 hrs we were under contract! She immediately translated our needs/requests into the ideal home and closed the deal promptly. Her communication, professionalism and ability to quickly understand what we were looking for were top notch. We relocated from NJ to NC and had very limited time to look at homes. Pamela narrowed out scope and effort and made the process simple for us. I Would recommend Pamela to anybody looking in the area and would use her again in a heartbeat! Thank you so much Pamela! We are grateful!”
“We really enjoyed working with Sue. She listened to what we were looking for and was quick to respond to meet us wheb needed.”
“Matt Hyduchak was exactly the agent for us. He listed our home for sale and I brought him on for the buying process of our new construction home. I like to be involved in the real estate process and Matt allowed me to do so with all the communication I needed. I had many suggestions and requests throughout the listing period and Matt took everything into consideration with professional expertise, knowledge and kindness. Selling houses during this time was difficult for everyone, so Matt went the extra mile to increase our showings and presence, all while encouraging our confidence in selling our home. Though we believe our new home is forever, we would definitely ask Matt to represent us again if we choose to sell.”
“She did everything i needed in an agent and more. A wonderful job.”
“Phillip was awesome to deal with and he was very informative. He was great on communication and was a delight to work with. I will definitely use him again and highly recommend him.”
“There is no other agent like Bre. She is down to earth, dedicated, and extremely knowledgeable. Would not have made it through the process without her.”
“Pj delivered an excellent job. Thank you again for all you did.”
“Nic was a pleasure to work with! He kept us up to date on all issues, returned calls, texts, and emails very promptly. Well Done Nic!”
“Leslie Smolkowicz was absolutely amazing from beginning to end. I told her what my needs were, my price range and she hit the nail on the head ! She did all the legwork, and found me the perfect neighborhood, the perfect home! She was there EVERY step of the way, through the inspections, the paperwork... She was so knowledgeable, and professional. We were so in sync, I trusted her completely , and boy did she deliver! Attention to detail was an understatement for her , she's sharp as a tack lol, nothing gets past her. Thank you Leslie Smolkowicz, there aren't enough words to express my gratitude. You are the prime example of the phrase of having a "passion for what you do, and you will excel" it certainly shows . God Bless”
“I suck at writing testimonials but she's good at being a real estate agent. If she can get me though the process of buying a house I'm sure she can help you too!”
