About Tony Baca
“Tony Baca is truly one of the best real estate agents we have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He had our home sold the day BEFORE it was even listed. He took numerous beautiful pictures of our home show casing its many features. He found errors which were made 15 years ago in city records that no one else had bothered to check. We had our home listed for a over a year with another realtor and did not have any offers. He kept us up to date with every aspect of selling home and is extremely through. It is unfortunate our second home which we live in and will be soon putting on the market in not in his selling area. I doubt we will be as fortunate with the next realtor. We would highly recommend him to absolutely anyone without reservation.
Tony, thank you for all you did. We both really mean this from the bottom of our hearts.” Many regards — Thomas Umphlett and Susan Kienitz
About Ron Ryan
Excellent service and professionalism by Ron during the two years we searched for our perfect beach house. Ron was always very flexible with timings and availability. He was honest with us and never once pushed us into a decision we didn’t feel comfortable in making. Ron was very familiar with all areas of the Northern Outer-Banks, including Southern Shores, Duck and Corolla. We would highly recommend his services.” — Kevin and Becky O’Connor
About Brim Silver
“My wife and I grew up coming to the Nags Head and we always dreamed of having our own place to share with our children. When we finally made the decision to look for a house or a lot to build on, a friend recommended Brim. She was great to work with – patient, extremely knowledgeable, and she knows everyone! We scoured the beach for the perfect spot and with Brim’s contacts and inside knowledge, we found the perfect location along Cottage Row in Old Nags Head. We couldn’t be happier with our house and can’t thank Brim enough for helping us find it.” — Patrick G. Trask
About Kelly Gorman
“A few years ago my husband and I moved here from Northern Virginia in search of a full time rental. We found a home for sale and called the realtor on the sign, Kelly Gorman and asked if the owner would be interested in renting it to us. Kelly arranged a meeting with the owner and facilitated a rental between us. After 10 months of renting we were ready to look for our forever home. We called Kelly and he was ready right away with about 10 homes to view. He listened to what we were looking for and found us our perfect place. He made the buying process easy and seamless, always available anytime we called or emailed to answer any questions we had. After moving in Kelly painted the Montauk Lighthouse, (my favorite) and gave it to us a housewarming present. Kelly still keeps in touch, calls us to wish us happy holidays and just to ask how the family is doing. Kelly Gorman is a kind person and a great realtor.” — Roy + Allyson Price
About Ellen Heatwole
"We would like to thank and commend our realtor Ellen Heatwole for helping us find our perfect beach home in Corolla. By chance she was the first realtor to respond to an inquiry we had on a house we had seen online. From the first time we spoke on the phone with Ellen, we knew we had hit the jackpot. Working with a client that lives 10 hrs away, is a first time vacation home buyer and has very limited weekend time to come see homes can be a challenge. Ellen researched homes that met our requirements and sent us listing updates almost daily. Within a few days notice she always able to set up 8-10 houses for us to view over a weekend. When a house of interest came on the market and we were unable to make the trip down, Ellen would go tour the home and send us video. She picked up very quickly on what our needs, taste and style were which really helped in our search. We always felt as if we were her only client and that 100% of her time was dedicated to us alone. She never seemed bothered or annoyed with the countless calls, emails and texts she would get from us almost daily. Ellen started as our realtor, but by the end of the 3 month process became our friend. If we ever sell or buy again, she absolutely would be our realtor again and would give her the highest recommendation possible to anyone looking for a realtor. A heartfelt thank you Ellen!" — Karen & Tom Dockman
