“As a first time home seller, Nichole Boyd expertly guided me through the entire process to a quick and successful sale. I never felt uncomfortable relying on her knowledge and connections, and I cannot overstate how responsive and communicative she was.

“Sue Simpson has been a trusted, proven professional that my wife and I have had the opportunity to work with on three occassions over the past 22 years. 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. Thank you - Scott & Emily Easton PS - It's really hot in Florida.”

“Terri i Parrish is no longer my Realtor....she is my friend! She "held my hand" through a difficult process for me as I am older and not as strong as I have been. She brought me coffee on the days the gas had been stopped and not restarted. She helped me move my belongings to storage! She returned every one of my frantic calls and soothed my concerns. She made sure every i was dotted and t crossed on every document. I must say that if one needs compassion in a Realtor and skills to sell, call Terri. I have one more to sell and she will be the listing agent!”

Surf City offers residents a vibrant coastal community with beautiful beaches, outdoor recreational activities, and a welcoming small-town atmosphere.

Surf City pairs easygoing beach life with everyday practicality, offering a community where sunrise surf checks and after-school bike rides share the same calendar. The town’s signature high-rise bridge frames sweeping water views, while locals cast lines from the storied Surf City Ocean Pier or launch kayaks at creeks that lace the sound. Family outings gravitate to concerts and markets by the water, and conservation comes alive with a visit to the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehabilitation Center, a beloved stop for residents and guests alike. Year-round services, public beach accesses, and thoughtfully maintained parks are supported by the Town of Surf City.

Schools are a standout. Served by Pender County Schools, Surf City Elementary and Surf City Middle anchor a strong pipeline to Topsail High School, backed by robust arts, athletics, and STEM options. Commuters appreciate how quickly US-17 connects to Wilmington and Jacksonville, expanding career and cultural choices without giving up the salt-air lifestyle. The town spans both Pender County and Onslow County, with neighborhoods ranging from classic island cottages to newer mainland communities with sidewalks, trails, and community pools.
