I cannot recommend Kate Steadman highly enough. We came to her as first-time buyers with lots of confusion and questions. After our first meeting we walked away armed with invaluable information, and feeling like we had met the right realtor for the job. We ultimately decided on a new construction home, and Kate was with us every step of the way- she attended every meeting, took notes and pictures, asked important questions and never missed a detail. While our home was being built Kate checked in often, and was always available to call/text if we had a question. Most importantly, we felt like she was a great representative for us- always looking out for her clients and speaking up if something seemed amiss. Buying your first home can be nerve-wracking, but Kate made this process so much less stressful. If you are looking for a realtor who is kind and warm, but will also fiercely advocate for her clients, Kate is the realtor for you.

family and I were challenged with. She understood our needs and ensured that
everything was taken care of it. She was extremely friendly and helpful in everything;

Brenda helped us sell our home earlier this year and she did a fantastic job. She
was very knowledgeable about the market and made what is typically a stressful
time, very stress free. She was always available to answer any questions. She is
very thorough and fought hard to maximize our sale. I will definitely be using her
again to purchase and sale again.

"I was actually surprised at what a relatively painless process this turned out to be.
Again, I think this had a lot to do with our good fortune in finding a great agent. You did
an excellent job all around in finding our 1st home. This is especially true given that we
changed our criteria several times during the process. As a first-time homebuyer, Nil was
a blessing. She was never at a loss for time to assess our needs and find the perfect
home."

Sara assisted us during our process to build a townhouse. She was incredibly attentive and answered as many questions as she could or got an answer for us through the 11 month process. It honestly felt like we were her only client during the entire process. Sara made the process less stressful through the numerous issues a pandemic can cause.

When advice immediately come to mind. Throughout one's career there are a select few individuals who stand out from the crowd and make a lasting positive impression; Jim is definitely part of that elite group for me.

I recommend Jim without a second of hesitation and I'm happy to discuss at any time, please just contact me.” Joe Tarulli
Never once did Jim treat my sale in any other way than a million dollar sale. I know he had other clients he was working with, but as much effort as he put into getting my house sold, I would have bet a hundred bucks I was the only one he was working with. He answered every call or called back very quickly, responded to every email, answered any and all questions, and even got me an attorney's name and number when I was having problems with my tenant.
I could not of hand picked a better person to work with; both personally as well as professionally. I would gladly trust the purchase and/or sale of any other home to Jim!
Sincerely, Mike Clark

Dee was very helpful on every step of the home buying process. We purchased from out of state and she never hesitated to go to the house to check on things. That really put us at ease. She lives and raised kids nearby which meant that she could give us great insights about the area. It really made us feel like we were there. Her communication skills are fantastic and she'll never leave you in the dark.

The realtor we have here in the Midwest is nothing compared to Cathleen. She so spoiled us for any other realtor. Cathleen was always looking for any edge she could find to sell our house. We knew there was nothing more that could be done. Our disappointment with the current realtor is her marketing and staying on top of what she says she will do. Cathleen would have NEVER told us that the ad for our open house didn't make the paper because, all though she got it to the secretary by the deadline, the secretary "loaded" the adds early so, so sorry, it didn't make the paper. THAT WOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED WITH CATHLEEN!!! It would have been there early. Cathleen O’Hannigan is the best realtor I ever worked with, and I have worked with between 50 and 75 realtors when selling employee houses for my company, in addition to the 7 houses I have bought and sold for myself. Her assistance in finding quality, reasonably priced contractors to do repairs to our house was absolutely priceless. Cathleen is the first realtor that I feel provided full service for the commission we paid her. She earned every penny. I would never consider for sale by owner if I had a realtor with her skills, service and timely responses.

I highly recommend Cathleen.
Cathleen is professional, experienced, knowledgeable, and works her tail off!
My family and I moved from out-of-state and it was refreshing and helpful to have the assistance of someone that knew the area so well and guided us through the legal process of buying a home. We were in great hands!
I really feel as thought she took the time to get to know us and find out what we were looking for and we found a dream home in a neighborhood my whole family loves

I have hired Nil to sell my house in Chapel Hill. She values her work as she put herself in
the situation as if she is doing this for herself. She ıs so personable to work with and you
feel this closeness. As a result, she tries to find all the possible opportunities and solutions.
The customer is first in her work. Never late to her appointments. Provides information
that she searched for marketing and design a plan to be successful. Being punctual and
expected are great. I would hire her again and recommend her work to my friends.”

"Nil Basu is an extremely organized, punctual, courteous, and always easily reachable;
very knowledgeable about the local market and its dynamics. An ideal seller’s agent -
we truly felt our best interest was Nil’s priority. She had many important timely suggestions
and showed excellent ability to react to an unpredictable market. As people we know
get into the market, we would not hesitate to give Nil the highest recommendation."

Absolute superstar. We were investors from out-of-state and Kate was as good of an agent as you could ask for. She is responsive and clearly is a hustler in terms of seemingly not taking days off! We would ask for a video home tour and she would be working on Saturdays and Sundays, responding late night, etc.
We are working towards a second home with her and cannot recommend her enough. She is experienced and will be a consummate professional.

Taylor was our real estate agent that helped us find our next home for our growing family. She was always very responsive, making us feel like we were the only client, knowing she had several others. She was there with us every step of the way, including in selling our previous home. Anything we needed, any questions we had she was always there with the right resources to make the home buying and selling process so smooth. We could not be more grateful to have had Taylor on our side. I would highly recommend, no matter what your real estate needs, partnering with Taylor as your agent.

Kate is an absolute pleasure to work with! I highly recommend her as a real estate agent. She is extremely professional, very knowledgeable, responsive, and goes above and beyond to make the home buying experience as easy as possible. As an out of state investor, Kate led the charge, always informed me of what to expect, and proactively anticipated any issues that may arise. She was a great resource in recommending a local lender and was always happy to answer any questions or concerns that I had. Kate truly is an outstanding agent and partner and I look forward to working with her again in the future!

"The process of buying a home can be a stressful one, especially if it is your first home,
and you have to buy the home from across the country. After that first phone call with
Nil, we knew we were in good hands. She took us on and stood by us through the whole
process, showing us every option available to us. Anytime things got a little crazy she was
right there with a solution, and it always ended up on track. She introduced us to an
amazing team, and if it were not for Nil and the team, I do not think my husband and I
would be saying we have a home that is ours. Nil is a true blessing and more than we
ever expected. The moment we stepped off the plane in North Carolina, she was right
there, making us feel right at home. She could have just shown us some houses and had
it said and done, but that is not Nil. She took us in, helped us find a home, scheduled
inspections and meetings, and showed us around our new hometown! All of this in a
matter of 3 days! She was right by our side from the beginning to the end. We really felt
as though we found more than a realtor in Nil. She was there for us in every way, sought
out our needs, and always made us feel as if we were a priority. We are now new
residents of the triangle area, and we don’t know many people, but one thing is for sure,
if we come across anyone who needs a realtor, without a doubt, my recommendation
for Nil would be given. Plus, no matter where my husband’s job take us, I really don’t think
we could ever find a realtor to compare to Nil".

I am so happy I used Taylor as my real estate agent to buy my first home. She is detail-oriented and incredibly responsive. She was also very knowledgeable about local vendors to use for all of my home projects. I would highly recommend reaching out to her to begin your home search. I was anxious about my first purchase in the highly competitive Raleigh market, but Taylor was on top of everything. I am forever grateful that she helped me find my dream home.

Sara was wonderful to work with. She understood what we were looking for, and carefully selected homes that met our criteria. She also made helpful observations about each home that we might not have noticed, which helped us develop pros and cons about each property.
Once we selected a home, Sara was an excellent liaison with the sellers' agent to ensure repair requests were completed satisfactorily and the home was in proper condition before closing.
After closing, upon request, Sara recommended experienced contractors to make minor improvements to the home to better suit our style.
Sara did an awesome job!

My name is Brad Simpson and I would like to express to you my appreciation for the work Jim Laudate did in selling my house. ( 4201 Mardela Spring Dr. , Raleigh ) After a few months after my house was put on the market, I moved to California . Jim was always there, anytime of day, to take care of things, like repairs to the house, that I was not available to take care of. He made the closing effortless for me, and I am over 3000 miles away. I couldn't have done it without him.

Nil is AMAZING to work with! Nil sold my townhouse in Apex in 9 days!!!! As for buying a new home, she listened to our needs and wants and absolutely delivered. She negotiated with the builder so I didn’t have to. From tracking down the builder, finding us a lot to build on, picking out fixtures and colors, to helping us negotiate with the contractor to store our storage unit on site before move in! She fought for us every single step of the way and we are so grateful. We couldn’t have done it without her expertise and knowledge! Thank you, from the bottoms of our hearts!!! We will absolutely be using her realtor expertise in our next move!

Top Qualities: Great Results, Personable, High Integrity
While this note is overdue due to circumstances out of my control, I would be remiss if I didn’t pass along my sincere appreciation for Jim’s invaluable assistance in the sale of my father’s condo at 220 Eyam Hall Lane in Apex back in August. Having known Jim through a different association about 15 years ago, I thought of him immediately when my 92 year old father was finally ready to sell his condo and move to a retirement facility. Even though I had not seen Jim for years, he was my only consideration to contact for assistance with the sale because of Jim’s standout qualities which included his integrity that is his core and that’s who I wanted representing my father’s interest.
As my father is hard of hearing and I am legally his POA, I explained the situation to Jim who verified my POA status from the document I provided. This impressed me right away that while Jim knew me from years ago, he was being hired in a professional manner and therefore was professional in ensuring that I could speak on behalf of my father. But there was another aspect of Jim that I recalled from those earlier years and that was his genuine warm caring nature. And while professional, he was also the Jim I remembered – what a combination – integrity, professional, caring! Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could be so fortunate to have all the people representing us in the many life situations with that basis of support!
Jim worked with our limited schedule when we needed to meet with him initially to understand the process and later to sign the agreement to hire Jim to represent us as my Dad’s realtor. Jim was quick to get things going and demonstrated why you need a realtor when selling a property – I had no idea there were so many places that properties could be advertised! He set it up so that I got weekly updates on the traffic hitting the websites the condo was listed on as well as the input from potential buyers when the property was shown. When a buyer came through with an offer, Jim guided us with what would be a reasonable and fair counter offer and provided us with a handyman to assess the costs of repairs the buyer was requesting.
I have been under unusual extreme overtime with my job for several months and I simply do not know how I would have been able to negotiate through the process without Jim’s experience and advice throughout. I was fortunate to have known Jim to know before hiring him that he was someone I could trust and the peace of mind that brought me during a time that I just couldn’t give my full attention to my Dad’s condo was invaluable to me.
So while overdue because of my work schedule, my gratitude is no less felt and I wanted to pass along my heartfelt thank you for Jim’s attention to detail, his professionalism, his level headed calm approach when I was stressed and for his heart of compassion. While years may separate people, we remember such admirable qualities forever and it was wonderful to discover that my memories of Jim were still accurate after all these years. He is who I will recommend for the reasons I have stated when I know of someone needing a realtor!
Thanks, Jim!

Andrew helped us purchase out first home. He was very prompt, detailed and explained every step of the process. He assisted us in finding an inspector, a home mortgage and guided us through the unknowns of the first-time home buying process. I felt very comfortable trusting him in finding us the perfect home especially in the crazy market the RDU area is. I would highly recommend Andrew’s services.

I would highly recommend Ashley Denny as your next realtor. Ashley took time to learn what we liked and didn't like. She worked hard to find us the right house that met all our needs and in our price range. She offered advise when houses would or wouldn't comp by knowing the market. She handled all the negotiations flawlessly and closing was easy. The biggest plus is that she has a great personality.

Ashley was excellent at helping us move along the home purchase by keeping in touch with us throughout the entire process. Even when our lender dropped the ball she was there to follow up for us and make sure things got done. We put in a bid and closed very quickly due to her using electronic signatures for everything so we saved a ton of time on getting paperwork done.

Dee is a knowledgeable, energetic, and diligent agent who you want on your team! Our home-buying process started smoothly because Dee is lightning fast when it comes to communication. When it came time for showings, she was generous with her time and showed us every property we requested, even if it was last minute. We successfully bid on a house after just two days of touring because Dee provided savvy advice on pricing and timing. She then scheduled us with a top-notch inspector for three days later, and found us a closing attorney right away. We closed on time in just three weeks because Dee made sure all the other parties kept pace. She even managed to draw seller concessions (in a seller's market, with an "as is" contract) because she is a fierce advocate for her clients. If you are an ambitious buyer, Dee is your agent. We are very grateful to have worked with her. Thank you, Dee.

As a first time home buyer I was unsure about nearly everything. But Kate was sure. She gave me great advice and now I am typing this review in a comfortable house that I feel is also a great investment. I couldn't be happier. We hit some snags during closing, but Kate completely put my mind at ease and navigated them seamlessly. In addition, she's also hilarious and a delight to work with. Can't say enough good things about her.

I am so grateful to have found Kate through a referral. She was knowledgeable, professional, SO efficient and responsive and very client service oriented. She helped me purchase my first out of state property and first property in general and I was able to confidently rely on her throughout the whole process. She was always very honest when showing properties via video--this was very important to me since I was never there to see the properties in person. She also connected me to other professionals from lenders to General Contractors, etc. whom all have only wonderful things to say about her. She really goes above and beyond and will go beyond her job scope to assist with anything that she can. I would highly highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home in Raleigh or anywhere in NC for that matter. Thank you so much, Kate!

Cathleen's work on the sale of our home was tremendous. Her relationships with competent and affordable service people had great value to us. Cathleen generated traffic in terms of showings for our home as well as ultimately finding buyers as we had two strong offers in a relatively short period of time. She is a terrific communicator and always accessible. We would highly recommend Cathleen to anyone looking to sell their home.
We also consider ourselves very fortunate to have been able to work with Cathleen to purchase our new home. We were looking in a very desirable neighborhood and she guided us well through a multiple offer situation and managed to negotiate a purchase price for $10,000 less than another offer! Cathleen represented us extremely well. Anyone working with Cathleen is in good hands!

I just wanted to let you know about my experience with Jim Laudate.
He was kind enough to help me with finding a rental in the area and frankly, I;ve never had a better experience. His level of professionalism and concern for my needs was not simply a business ploy- it was genuine, from the heart and incredibly sincere. Formally in a few companies that provided direct customer service, I thought I was rather skilled in helping my clients and took quite a bit of pride in developing my rapport with those who literally put food on my table. Frankly, I learned a few things about how to treat people from Jim - what an exquisite individual. He could run workshops on the topic.
All this to say that I'll likely be in the market for a house in 2014 and Jim is person I want on my side.

Kate is an outstanding realtor in regards to her local knowledge of homes. She took into account the specifics and interests of the kind of home we were looking for , she made sure she found just that. Kate has excellent negotiating skills and she got us the best deal for our home in the shortest time possible, Time was not on our side but Kate was able to sell our home within a week of listing and within a month we were able to close on our old home and close on our new home on the same day. She does her research ahead of time and is very knowledgeable and confident in her dealings.

things about her, she listened and absorbed everything we said, she noted them not only
paper and on her head, even if we forget what we want she reminded us when we
made a decision. She did sold our town home while the new town homes were still
building around us. Her marketing ideas helped us to sell in three months, which was the
time that all the mortgage market was down. Best of all we did not lose any money while
we were selling just because her right move at right time. Also when we are buying the
house she was very helpful. Right now if we need to buy a house again, we can just ask
Nil to buy us a house and we can just go to closing without hesitating what she picked for
us. We are so certain that she knew what we want what we like and what we need. We
did really enjoy while working with Nil. We never felt like we were alone. She was always
available and had time for us. She clearly explained everything while we are selling and
buying. She is an honest person that we could trust. Now we are getting ready to move
our new house without any questions or worries in our head. We would like to thank Nil all
of her professional hard work. Thank you".

We were recommended to use Ashley through a close friend of mine and I couldn't think of anyone more perfect to go through the journey of purchasing our first home! She was extremely helpful and sat with us through days of inspections (we went under contract with 2 houses - the first fell through). Through the long process, which seemed like a roller coaster, Ashley went from being our real estate agent to becoming a close friend. She understood exactly what we needed in our first home and made our dreams into a reality. We've now been in our home for almost a year and we still speak with Ashley on a regular basis. We thank you for all of your help along the way and can't wait to spend many more years in our home!

As a first time home buyer, I obviously had no idea I was doing and was feeling super overwhelmed. Luckily, I received a referral for Andrew services from my brother, who bought a house a few months prior to me. It was comforting having a realtor with experience, but also being someone within my age bracket, thus being able to understand my needs in a home more directly and personally. He had an open ear and had my best interest in mind. You can tell that he really wants to find you the right house and does not want to take you out of your price range if you don’t want to go there. Once the negotiating started, it was also clear that he knew his stuff, and if he didn’t he would find resources and information quickly. He is very responsive and understanding in communication, which was helpful for every step of the process and something I value highly. I am really glad to know that I have met a fantastic resource regarding home buying for life! Thanks for doing your thing Andrew!!

Ashley was so helpful while guiding us through the purchase of our first house! She talked us through every step of the way so we knew what to expect and what to be prepared for. Everything went off without a hitch! She's also very knowledgeable about the Raleigh area and neighborhoods. The market moves fast and Ashley was always quick to respond to my calls and was proactive working with our lender and closing lawyer. We are very happy clients!!

Danya McHugh is a joy to work with. She really cares about her clients as well as the community and neighborhood she lives in. She is like having a friend on the inside looking out for your best interest. Danya is able to ease your mind by being there every step of the way. She is extremely communicative and easy to reach - even for last minute calls when we had questions. We relocated from Baton Rouge, Louisiana to Raleigh, North Carolina and we reached out to Danya months before our actual move. She is very professional and patient, asking questions to get to know exactly what we were looking for in a home and community. She is very aware of the market and able to present several options and various neighborhoods in the Raleigh area. Danya is actively involved in her community and is very knowledgeable about the communities and surrounding areas. She even helped us secure a realtor to sell our home in Baton Rouge and maintained communication with that realtor making our transition easier. I highly recommend Danya McHugh to anyone looking to do any Real Estate transaction - buying, selling and/or relocating.

I highly recommend Danya McHugh. She was easy to work with and schedule shows when I found something i wanted to see. She also kept throwing me suggestions of homes that fit my criteria. When it came down to purchase my home, she got me a great deal. I felt confident she was fighting for my best interests and not just pushing things through. There was a period toward closing the seller & agent got a little aggressive and hostile. Danya remained very professional regardless how seller agent acted. So many options out there for Real Estate Agents, but I feel fortunate I found Danya.

Purchasing a house, especially when you are selling at the same time, can be an extremely stressful time. But that was not the case with Ashley. At no time was I stressed through the process. Ashley made the purchase process fun, easy and listened to what we really wanted! We found our house within the first few days of looking and immediately were able to put an offer on it. My daughter still comes home everyday saying "I love our new house". Ashley was amazing to work with through the process and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell!

I highly recommend Danya as a realtor and as a person. She helped me find a house in 2019. There were multiple offers due to low inventory at that time. She advised me in what I needed to do to submit an offer where I would have a great chance of having my offer chosen. It was a very competitive situation and happened quickly.
This was the first time I purchased a home on my own, so I needed her to take care of all of the details necessary to close, which she did.
She always had a smile on her face, enjoyed the details of her job, and
was responsive to my questions.

I started working with Kate back in April when I saw a small home my aging in-laws might be interested in relocating to from Ohio. That one never panned out, but Kate kept patiently showing me houses until we found the perfect investment property. We closed on the home in mid-July and I've already found a tenant!
Navigating the purchase of a home is never without the occasional glitch. But Kate's expertise, thoroughness and professionalism made my experience as a first-time investment buyer smooth and enjoyable. She's truly a pleasure to work with.

"Nil took such wonderful care of my fiancé and I when we were buying our first home
recently. Even before we had moved Nil was already on top of things, finding listings for
us and learning more about what we were looking for. Once we moved, she was eager
to set up an introductory meeting with us and we immediately felt comfortable working
with her, knowing she was on our side and was going to take care of us. Three days later
we met with her on a Saturday morning to go look at some properties. She took a very
objective approach, indicating details she noticed about the house, but always allowing
us to make the final decision to move on to the next property. When we finally found a
property, we were interested in, Nil again pointed out the details and quality of the
construction. She guided us through the entire process, and we had no hesitation when
we made our offer, knowing that Nil was taking care of us and wasn’t going to let us end
up in the wrong home. Her encouraging words and enthusiasm from searching all the
way to closing made this an easy and enjoyable process. She also negotiated a great
price for us! Thanks Nil!"

She stayed on top of me and made sure we had everything we needed through each step of my home buying process. She went above and beyond to make sure my home buying experience was a great one! I highly recommend her! :)

Jim was great! He provided some efficient research tools as I looked for my next residence and was prompt, knowledgable and professional throughout the process. I really appreciated his expereince as we went through the house looking for potential troublespots - he even found one I never would have thought was a potential problem in the long term. A great guy and consummate professional at all times!

Mohamed was an amazing partner in helping me go through the steps in buying my first home. His commitment to his clients is outstanding. The advice he gave me was always helpful and made the process of buying my first home much easier.

Ally is an honest, fair, and hardworking agent! She has sold two of our homes in the last three years, both of which went under contract within 2-3 days! Ally is confident in her job and is a skilled negotiator. She works to get the best deal for her sellers and strives to be fair and reasonable.
She 100% takes the stress out of selling a home!

"I strongly recommend Jim Laudate as a Realtor. He agreed to meet with me the first day I called him. He was very thorough and followed up throughout the whole process. He could not have been more knowledgeable and detail oriented every time I met with or talked to him. Jim knew the answer to every one of my questions and fulfilled all of my requests. He even had great suggestions on every vendor I used and appliances that I bought. It was a real pleasure to work with someone whose primary interest was to get me and my husband into the house we wanted. Jim also went out of his way to accommodate my work schedule, which was really important to me. I couldn’t imagine choosing any other realtor. Thanks Jim!!"

As the sellers of an estate home, Sara was the absolute best to work with. She is organized, available, and efficient. Communication was a key, as she kept us up to date with every offer, answered every call, email and text, in a timely fashion. Due to it being an estate sale, there were 5 siblings involved, including a lot of work with legal documents and attorneys. Sara researched and stayed on top of every detail through closing. After dealing with multiple realtors in the past, we highly recommend Sara! We were very pleased with her photographer and the way she listed the home, too.

If we could give Kate 10 stars, we would! Kate was with us every step of the way and was so helpful and accommodating to us. She did an excellent job walking us through the process and on multiple occasions went above and beyond to give us information before we even realized we needed it! She was very thorough in giving us the history on all the houses we considered and made video recordings of houses for us when we couldn't visit them because we were moving from out of town. We actually never saw the house we purchased in person until closing day because we trusted Kate 100% to give us all the information we needed to make our decision.
We were so happy with Kate and would absolutely use her again as an agent, as well as recommend her to all our friends!

"We really enjoyed our experience with Nil. We felt that she listened and respected our
needs and helped us to find exactly what we were looking for. We enjoyed that she has
a great attention to detail with each home, quickly being able to point out things that
needed to be fixed or items that were not aligning with the selling point. She is extremely
knowledgeable in her field. We would, without hesitation, recommend her to anyone
buying or selling and home and would certainly use her again if we were to be back in
the market. Thanks Nil!" – (SOLD Their Home in 2015!)

I would and will absolutely recommend Cathleen to anyone who asks.
She helped me prepare my home prior to listing, had a stager come in, and upon occasion assisted me personally.
My home went into MLS on a Friday. Cathleen held an open house on Saturday and my home had 3 offers within 4 hours-2 over asking. This was mostly due to the extensive pre-marketing she does to target the right buyers before the home hits the market.
I just closed today.
I was exuberant with her skills all the way around.

"We had started with another agent and were unsuccessful in finding a new residence.
When we tried again, we chose to go with Nil Basu, who we had met an open house
months before. You were a much better fit for us, bringing a personal touch, and
keeping a professionalism and sense of trust that is required in such a transaction. You
were always there when we needed you, even taking last minute calls and
appointments when we were driving around and saw something that caught our eye. It
was such a pleasant experience, that you have helped inspire a career change for me. I
have experienced real estate before, sharing experiences with family, and came away
with an almost “car salesman” feeling. You helped me to see that it can be so much
more and that it is a great experience to be shared with someone. It can be enjoyed
and not as a mountain to climb. This is one of, if not the, most important
purchase/investment that anyone can tackle and you put the fun back in it, as it should
be. Our family just wants to say thank you and we will always remember you and how
you helped us in such an important time."

Working with Ashley to find my dream home was a fantastic experience! Looking for a home can be overwhelming, but Ashley and her team made the home buying process less stressful by walking me through each step and sitting in all meetings with me. Ashley took the time to get to know me and what I was looking for in my ideal home, and worked endlessly to find the perfect home for me. The housing market in Raleigh moves quick, and Ashley quickly respond back to my calls or texts ensuring I was able to see all houses I was interested in.

Ashley helped us buy and sell our home and helped coordinate a simultaneous closing for both buying and selling at the same time.. Talk about talent. She has still gone out of her way to remember us, wish us happy birthday with presents in our mailbox and was beyond helpful in the whole process. She is amazing!

Ashley was an absolutely amazing realtor. Our house had a full price offer in 7 hours and 4 offers in 3 days. Ashley made sure everything went smoothly throughout the entire process and was always available if we ever needed her. I would highly recommend Ashley as an agent. I cannot say enough great things about her. She is the best!!

"Nil found us a great home! I met Nil over a year ago; however, I was not ready to
purchase a house at the time. She kept in contact with my husband and me and sent us
email updates for houses that had come on the market. There was never any pressure to
buy. When we were ready, we contacted Nil and she started us on the journey to home
buying. She was very understanding to our needs and was able to locate houses in the
price range and areas of interest. I believe that Nil went above and beyond to find us
the perfect house. I would definitely recommend Nil to anyone who wants to make the
move to home buying. Nil did not only find us a house to live in but a place we both can
call Home! Thanks, Nil!"

Ashley listed our townhouse near NC state. It had a full price offer the next day! Her photographer did a great job - as did her stager and landscaping crew. She also provided valuable insight as to what the buyer would be expecting and advice on paint color. Highly Recommended A++ -Brian L. on 11/2/16

listed my house as a FSBO and Dee was the buyer's agent who brought me the eventual buyer for the house.
While on "opposite sides" of the transaction, Dee was super professional and responsive. With Dee's masterful experience and help, we were able to easily work thru all issues between her buyer and me. It all led to a super smooth closing at the end. I was super impressed and pleased with her help in getting my house sold. She did a great job.
Well done Dee!

Brenda was an amazing agent with a heart to truly serve her clients. She was very knowledgeable and used all the tools she had available to make sure we were fully taken care of! She was very responsive to our questions. We love our new 1948 farmhouse that she helped us buy and she also helped us sell our home of 12 years which was ONLY on the market for 14 hours. We highly recommend her to all of our friends and family!!!

Sara was our realtor for a new house we just closed on in November, 2020. She was outstanding in her day to day service, especially as it related to following up and ensuring all of the sellers to do’s were properly handled. She has an excellent eye for quality, which was key when it came to ensuring items on the inspection report were corrected. She also listens, so she can zero in on what you want as a buyer, so as to not waste your time. Overall, we had an outstanding experience with Sara.

Andrew was a HUGE help in helping us find our home. My husband and I didn’t always see eye to eye on some aspects we wanted in a home; and Andrew was a gem picking out houses that would satisfy the two of us. Once we got into looking at houses in person, we landed on a great home within two weeks. We owe a lot of that to him! He had our back and our best interests at heart; albeit some conflicting “must haves” between me and the hubby. ;-) highly recommend him to help you find your new home!! He’s the best!

We just finished purchasing our new home with Ashley Denny, and are a little bummed we don’t have an excuse to text her daily anymore. ;) Just kidding! But seriously, Ashley has been amazing. We started looking, then we took a break, then we suddenly found our dream house, and Ashley was available with fast communication and action no matter where we were in that process. Then we knocked out closing in thirty days, and again, Ashely was readily available to answer every question we had, and most importantly, help offer solutions and solve every problem that came up. This is our third home, and we’re here to tell you that you NEED a good realtor to help you through this process. No matter what, issues will arise for which you will want guidance from a professional. Ashley helped ease our minds at multiple points, and we are so thankful for her! We recommend Ashley Denny 100%!

Andrew Stark and his team are highly capable, very communicative, and were a result oriented asset who were pivotal to the marketing modeling and closing of our home (well above asking price!). Andrew’s negotiating skills and tactics not only helped us through whatever obstacles we faced, but also allowed us to have the flexibility to review multiple offers. With his wise experienced advice, he helped us to execute and close on the offer that most suited our needs as well as put the most money in our pockets.
Especially during the pandemic, selling your home can be a very daunting task but with Andrew’s virtual modeling of the house combined with his industry knowledge, great offers came pouring in immediately after hitting the market. In fact our buyer put in an offer based purely off of the virtual tour because it was that transparent and detailed. He allowed us to have a sense of control over the process while being available as a very competent resource through all the nitty gritty details involved in the sale.
I would highly recommend using Andrew as your realtor and know he will leave you as happy with the experience as I was.

Nil Basu was extremely helpful, took care of my home just like her own and helped me
above and beyond just sales process. I will certainly recommend if a friend in need of
real estate agent. Thank you very much for selling my home. This was an unusual case
since I was overseas during the sales and listing period. I have never worried while I was
away since I knew my home was in safe hands. I was communicated about the market,
showing times and dates and buyer comments. Thank you very much for taking care of
sale of my home such professional and pleasant way.

Cathleen has excellent "buyers eyes" and knew exactly what would be key in selling my home. She used her unique strategies to have a record number of buyers at an Open House the first day on the market. She absolutely amazed me with the incredible offers over asking in a market where full price was rare. In purchasing my new home, her superior negotiating skills saved me $30,000 in that I never would have been able to get the builder to give. I purchased 4 other homes in other parts of the country and Cathleen is by far the most effective real estate agent I have ever worked with.

I cannot thank Allison enough for all her hard work she put into selling our investment property. She has a very sweet personality, is kind and understanding, but above all she is a true professional who cares about her clients. Her negotiation skills and her knowledge made the entire process simple from the listing of our unit to the closing. She was on top of everything and kept me well informed every step of the way. If I could give 10 stars I would. I highly recommend Allison to anyone looking to sell or buy a home. You will not regret working with her.

We just closed on our first home thanks to Kate! We could not have had a better experience from the first showing to the closing process she kept us informed and up to date during the entire home buying process. She informed us of what to expect from day one so when we finally decided to place an offer on our home there were no surprises. She came to every showing with tons of insight to each property and the community surrounding. She took into consideration our feedback after each property we viewed and even was accommodating when we made adjustments to our original budget. She was patient with our indecisiveness. She was always flexible with our schedules and made herself available to us at a moment's notice, nights and weekends included, it felt as if we were her only clients. She is so easy to get along and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home in the Triangle area!

"The most professional, friendly and highly effective agent I have ever worked with. Nil
provided total solution by working for the client truly and very dedicatedly in taking care
of every need. Including picking up mails, taking care of the house at the time you were
out, negotiating with the contractors for a better deal, continuously providing feedback
on the showings, followed up with the agents and prospective buyers for feedback, tried
her best to keep the listing price and bring the right value for selling, clearly stayed on
top of any issues and communicated effectively, worked with relocation are some of the
great service Nil had rendered in this more than a year long process of selling.
Nil has developed a great relationship with the entire family and is very well regarded by
every one of my family members. Sukanya, my wife, had a great partner in Nil during the
entire staging, scheduling and showing process. You can count on Nil to help you in
every stage of the selling process. Nil stayed persistently optimistic during the long selling
process and gave all her best in making the sale happen.
Nil was available at anytime from very early in the morning till late evening 11PM all days.
She was even made herself available during her vacation and that too while away from
USA. You can always reach her via, email, text, phone or any other way including face
book.
Nil is naturally very customer centric and has demonstrated very high professional abilities
in providing exceptional client services in the entire sales process. In fact I had initially
engaged Nil as my agent for buying an investment property. I was so impressed with her
abilities and market knowledge. You need an agent who can be an advisor when you
are new to the area and location. Nil can provide great insight on market, trends and
pricing. I never had hesitation to engage her when I had to put my house on the market.
Also because of her service and the relationship I went above and beyond to
recommend her as listing agent at the time when the relocation company was involved
in helping my home sale process. Keller Williams was not on the list of preferred agent but
now Nil through her great services earned the respect of everyone and had registered
Keller Williams with the relocation company that was involved in dealing with the sale of
my home.
If anyone is looking to buy or sell their properties and looking for an who can provide
total solution to the utmost satisfaction then I guarantee Nil can provide the best in class
service. I had explained in detail in the survey on her engagement in every bit of the sale
process. Truly a delightful person to work with. This is a difficult market, especially if you
are selling, and you need the right agent to represent and Nil is unquestionably the right
representative for you. Best Regards,
Venkat & Sukanya Narayanan
