“Moving from another state is a difficult process. Making a decision on a location for our new home was also difficult. Pamela Mundra was a pro! She had the local knowledge that we needed and was a pleasure to work with. She has helped our journey tremendously! We highly recommend her!”
“We originally connected with the Hines Team when we were looking to relocate to Smithfield, North Carolina. While that move didn’t end up being our long-term fit, nearly four years later when it came time to sell our home, there was no question about who we would call. From start to finish, Kirsten and Beth Hines handled everything—and did so with professionalism, precision, and care. The listing photos were beautiful, communication was clear and consistent, and our home was on the market and sold in under 60 days, which was incredibly impressive. Kirsten was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process, and Beth was a fierce advocate for us during negotiations, always making sure our best interests were protected. You truly feel supported every step of the way with this team. I cannot recommend the Hines Team enough. If you want results, strong advocacy, and a seamless experience, this is the team you want. You will not be disappointed.”
“I have worked with Vanessa numerous times in the past, and I'm currently using her to sell my existing home. She is extremely knowledgeable about the local real estate market and always goes the extra mile.”
“Sue Kerata's knowledge and expertise were exactly what we needed as we built our custom home. She is delightful to work with and always had our best interest in mind.”

“Michele was great! Not only was she extremely helpful with our search and purchase, but her experience and knowledge of the local housing market, inspections, fixtures, and comps made her assistance invaluable!”
“My realtor was amazing—knowledgeable, patient, and truly dedicated. Highly recommend!”
“Stephanie reached out immediately after you connected her with my information. She is very knowledgeable about the area we were looking. She was very responsive and helpful throughout the process. She often provided information we hadn't even thought of in the land purchase process. I would highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for land or a home in that region.”
“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!”
“Kelly Bossman was wonderful to work with. She made herself available for any and all questions and very supportive even when I was 'clueless' about the whole process. Very thankful to have had her at my side!”
“Rebecca was available and patient in answering all our questions and walking us through the homebuying process, from beginning to end. Her knowledge and experience were the keys to our success.”
“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.”
“Liz was my saving grace in a chaotic journey of selling my house. She was patient, communicative, and worked hard with marketing and communication with buyers agents. She was a recommendation of a friend who I have thanked 10000 times. I would recommend her in a heartbeat.”

“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.”
“Overall it was an excellent experience. Rocio was on top of everything since the beginning until the end of the process. Great job!”
“I was going through a divorce while selling the property and my wife at the time was very hostile. Mary had to jump through a bunch of hoops to make this sale happen. I would recommend her she was patient and got the job done. The house sold for $20k more than I was expecting and Mary did a great job jumping through hoops because I was going through a divorce at the time. But every problem that came up she found a solution to in a timely manner.”
“Ms. Dysinger has spent a great deal of time during the last 6 months on the phone and or texting me to keep me informed as to the sale of my property in Scotland County, NC. She has maintained a professional attitude that I find lacking today in America. I would have no hesitation in contacting her should I have need of buying or selling property in North Carolina!”
“Pj delivered an excellent job. Thank you again for all you did.”
