• Location - We know the area extremely well having lived here for 15 years. My husband is a 4WD advocate and we have spent almost every weekend for years traveling the back roads of Watauga, Avery, and Ashe County - not to mention Tennessee. This has allowed us to identify and find the perfect locations for the ideal home. Tell us what you want - river, stream, view, privacy - and we can find it for you.
   
• Real Estate - Our record of sales for home listings is impressive! We can sell your home fast. We sold half of our listings in less than 3 months. We can’t always guarantee that your home will sell that fast, but we are aggressive in our approach about marketing your home to its best appeal and contacting our large client base for opportunities of interest.
   
• Investment Property and Rentals - This is the area in which we excel the most. We have a list of testimonials from our rental home owners that can attest to our superiority over other rental companies in the amount of income generated. We will be happy to provide you with rental income for most of our houses and generate a chart of projected income for any house that you choose. We are so sure of our performance that we will guarantee you an income at least as much as our competitor’s generate.
   
• Building - If we can’t find what you want, we can have it built for you. We will find the land and then find the builder for your perfect vacation home.
   
• Renovations - Having renovated over 15 houses, we have great ideas on what you can do to remodel a house to suit your needs. In addition, we know all the local stores and resources to help you with your project.
   
• Contacts - We will provide you with an extensive list of suppliers to help you outfit your house from the landscaping to the interior. Many of our local merchants offer discounts to our customers including linens, mattresses, hot tubs, furniture from leading manufacturers, and many more.
   
• Members - We are a member of the Avery Watauga County Board of Realtors and licensed by the NC Real Estate Commission, and Tennessee Board of Realtors. Also, we are member of High Country Host and Blowing Rock Chamber of Commerce.
   
• Advertising - Our philosophy is that the modern person is computer oriented. This would include buyers, sellers, and renters. We advertise extensively on Google, Yahoo, Pet-friendly travel, MSN, Rentalo, VRBO, FindVacations, SkiNC, and many other advertisers too numerous to mention. Whether you are selling, buying or renting a property, our advertising is top of the line.
   
• Whatever your real estate need, we can provide it!
