“We had a great experience using Jeff Lesley and his team for the purchase of our prior home in Carolina Beach, so we did not hesitate in working with them again for this home. Jeff and his team were responsive to our request, on short notice, to view this home, to expeditously arrange for the required due diligence, and to prepare and execute all of the necessary documentation. Jeff and his team have also assisted us with post-closing matters, such as identifying maintenance vendors and renovation contractors. We would definitely recommend Jeff and his team to our friends and family.”

He took the time to explain everything clearly, showed incredible patience, and made the entire experience feel manageable and stress-free. I would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking to purchase a home. He is kind, knowledgeable, and truly exceptional at what he does.”

“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!”
