How I help buyers & sellers in WNC.
Two complete playbooks, one set of values. Honest pricing, real communication, and the local knowledge to make every transaction go smoothly.
I work with sellers
and buyers across WNC.
My practice started buyer-heavy and is intentionally shifting toward listings. Both sides get the same attention to detail and the same honest read on the market.
Listing your home or land.
Pricing, prep, marketing, negotiation, closing. In a thin market like WNC, the difference between the right list price and the wrong one is weeks on the market and tens of thousands of dollars.
- Honest CMA backed by live comparable sales — not a Zestimate
- Pre-listing walk-through with a concrete prep punch list
- Professional photography, drone, & floor plans
- Targeted online & MLS exposure via eXp's 80,000-agent network
- Showing coordination, written feedback, and weekly check-ins
- Offer review with line-by-line negotiation strategy
- Inspection & closing coordination start-to-finish
Finding your place in the mountains.
From pre-approval to closing day. Every WNC town has its own buyer story, its own quirks, and its own pace — I'll help you read all three.
- Discovery call — budget, climate, timing, must-haves
- Pre-approval intros to local and national lenders
- Curated MLS feed and town-by-town fit analysis
- In-person or video tours, with honest reads on each property
- Offer strategy and contract walkthrough
- Inspection, appraisal, and due-diligence coordination
- Vendor referrals — surveyors, septic, well, contractors
Everything I help with — start to finish.
If your situation isn't on this list, ask — chances are I've seen it.
Mountain land & lots
My specialty. Mountain acreage, riverfront lots, and unrestricted land across Franklin, Macon County, and the wider Smokies. I know the terrain, the zoning, the perc-test reality, and the access questions every land buyer should be asking before falling in love with a parcel.
Browse land 02Florida → NC relocation
I lived this move. I help out-of-state buyers — especially Floridians — navigate insurance after Helene, the property-tax vs. no-state-income-tax math, healthcare, climate, schools, and when to plan a long weekend trip vs. when to wait. Includes a custom relocation timeline.
FL → NC guide 03Residential home buying
Family homes, mountain retreats, and everything in between. From your first showing to the closing table, I keep you in the loop and out of the rabbit holes. First-time buyers get extra hand-holding through inspections and closing costs.
Buyer's guide 04Residential listing services
Pricing strategy, professional marketing, negotiation, and closing — all coordinated for you, with weekly check-ins and written feedback after every showing. eXp's 80,000-agent network gives your listing real reach.
Seller's guide 05Mountain cabins & second homes
Cabins, chalets, and second homes across the Smokies — from cozy retreats near Bryson City to private hideaways outside Franklin. I know what to look for in mountain construction, access roads, and the seasonal road conditions that can affect a property's usability.
Explore areas 06Off-grid & homesteading
WNC is one of the best regions in the country for off-grid living. I help buyers find properties with the right combination of acreage, water access, solar potential, and privacy — plus the county-by-county zoning, septic, and well realities that make or break a homestead.
Off-grid guide 07Property valuation & CMA
A real comparative market analysis for homes and land across the Carolina Smokies — backed by live comps, not algorithms. Free, with a 24–48 hour turnaround.
Request a CMA 08Investment property
Short-term rental cabins and long-term residential investments across WNC. I'll walk you through the local rental market, regulations by county and town, and what's currently performing best — including the towns where STRs are restricted.
Discuss investmentA simple four-step process.
Discovery call
A real 30-minute conversation — not a sales pitch. We talk goals, budget, timing, and whether we're a fit. Free and no pressure.
Plan & strategy
For buyers: town shortlist + lender intros + a curated MLS feed. For sellers: a pricing strategy and a prep punch list with concrete actions.
Execute
Showings, listings, photography, negotiation, inspections, paperwork. I do the chasing so you don't have to.
Closing & beyond
I'm a phone call away long after closing — for contractor referrals, market updates, or just to say hi when you're up in the mountains.
Two free conversations.
One real plan.
Discovery call for buyers. CMA call for sellers. No fees, no pressure — just an honest read on your situation in the WNC market.
