“Jeff was excellent in achieving the sale of a large 58.3 acre family property in NC. I would recommend Jeff, his team and Century 21 to anyone wanting to sell property. He was able to manage and negotiate all aspects of this sale I thank his entire team.”
“After Liz spent two years helping us find our ‘unicorn’ home, there was no one else we’d trust to sell our beach house in Surf City. Working with Liz feels like having a close friend in your corner rather than just an agent. She brought the same incredible patience and expert advice to this sale as she did to our purchase. Liz made the whole process feel effortless and kept us confident every step of the way. I’m so grateful for her support—she truly is the best and we would recommend her to anyone we know looking to by or sell.”
“Chris Roper was absolutely outstanding and exceeded all of my expectations. As a first-time homeowner, I was unfamiliar with many aspects of the home-buying process, but Chris went above and beyond to guide me every step of the way. 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.”
“Neil is great! He is very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. I will definitely refer him to anyone that asks if I know a local agent.”
“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!”
“I highly recommend Pam Wooddell for all your real estate needs. Her expertise, professionalism, and dedication has always exceeded my expectations. She guides one through the process with ease and achieved fantastic results. A top-notch realtor who goes above and beyond for her clients.”
“Bea Desmond was exceptional! Extremely knowledgeable about the market, always responsive to the many questions we had & always the utmost professional! We could not have asked for a better agent.”
“Oscar was great to deal. I will use him to buy my next home.”
“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!”
“Dave Robertson was very patient and got the job done! He was very positive and professional throughout this experience!”
