“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!”

“Anthony was instrumental in assisting my family with the sale of my mother's home upon her death. He was informative and knowledgeable about our area and the challenges we were facing with the condiiton of the home. He was in line with our thoughts and pricing which proved to be beneficial to all. Anthony maintained constant communicatoins with us throughout the process and made this difficult endeavor as smooth as possible. It was a pleasure working with him, so much so that I made an immediate referral to a collegue and he sold their property within days as well. They also are very pleased. I would highly recommend working with Anthony for your needs and would definitely work with him again should the need arise.”

I would call no other agent to assist us with the preparation and listing of an unusual size home for the area: one with a unique floor plan and a desirable lot. We very much needed an experienced realtor with precise knowledge of area market trends and home values for this transaction; Sue Simpson was fantastic.

Emerald Isle offers residents a charming coastal community with beautiful beaches, outdoor recreational activities, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere that fosters a high quality of life.
Emerald Isle delivers the kind of coastal living people daydream about: wide, uncrowded beaches, water as clear as sea glass, and a pace that invites you to breathe deeper. Set on Bogue Banks along the Crystal Coast, it blends small-town warmth with big outdoors energy. Anglers swap stories at the storied Bogue Inlet Fishing Pier, kayakers trace glassy creeks on the sound side, and families spend long, happy days at oceanfront accesses maintained by the Town of Emerald Isle. When you want to explore more of the shoreline’s personality, the official guide to the Crystal Coast maps out can’t-miss adventures and events.
Nature is never far away. Maritime forests and tidal flats host migratory birds, while the vast Croatan National Forest beckons with hiking and paddling. Favorite day trips include the family-friendly NC Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores and historic shoreline at Fort Macon State Park. Prefer a ferry-to-paradise outing? Untouched beaches await at Hammocks Beach State Park.
Families value the area’s strong academics and community support through the local public school district. Housing ranges from oceanfront cottages that frame sunrise views to quiet soundside neighborhoods perfect for sunset cruises and bike rides along the Emerald Path. Whether you’re buying your first beach place or preparing to sell, Agent Pronto can connect you with a proven real estate professional who knows Emerald Isle inside and out.
