Looking for an Asheville Real Estate Agent?

"Ashley was a fantastic realtor. She never pressured me, understood my needs and was always available as needed. I would highly recommend her. She was patient and I always knew she was looking out for by best interests. She has become a friend."

"Best choice we EVER could have made was to have Ashley Dotson help us sell our home! Ashley gave us all the time and energy we needed to get the information and answers we were seeking. Her communication was extremely timely and professional and she gave her opinion when we asked for one, yet gave us time to think when we needed. Under contract, she was a true liaison between us and the buyers and she never missed a beat. Other realtors did not provide the same level of attention and patience. Thank you Ashley!"

"What can we say? She previewed it 4 times in 2 days; we received 3 offers, 2 above our asking price. It never had to go on the open market -- no signs, no parade of people. The buyer proved to be high maintenance, but Ashley handled all the curved balls she threw us very professionally and managed to keep us from wringing the woman's neck -- no small feat. We think she did a terrific job for us and would recommend her to anyone. She did an excellent job in all respects. We especially appreciated her ability to give honest, objective advice when we asked for it and her positive and reassuring attitude in the face of our frequent frustration with the buyer's demands. We'd recommend Ashley Dotson in a heartbeat. She's knowledgeable; she listened well and responded appropriately to all of our questions and concerns; she provided sound guidance throughout the process; she was always on top of every detail and very prompt in providing all of the information and/or documentation we needed at every step; she's very supportive, and, best of all, very easy to work with."

"Ashley was recommended to us after we were giving up on interviewing agents to sell our home. She loved our home as much as we did and understood our goals with the selling. She was our eyes and ears for our home when we already moved out of our home and into another state. We really appreciate her patience with us as we were selling our first home. The transaction was very smooth and quick! Thank you!"

"I have had a couple of transactions with Katie. One was with a home where we discovered some problems with moisture. She was very diligent in getting qualified inspectors and contractors there on my behalf to assess the situation. We did not move forward with the purchase and I am very grateful that she helped me do the appropriate homework so as not to get into problems that were not readily acknowledged by the seller. I have looked a few other properties with her and am now in due diligence on another one that she found for me."
 

"I have been part of quite a few real estate transactions over the last 20+ years (I'm an investor), and the detailed binders she provided to me were without a doubt the most comprehensive and organized that I have ever received. Her professionalism is outstanding and her keen eye for style and potential are a real plus."
 

"Katie is extremely professional and we loved working with her! Because of our rental situation at the time, we decided to purchase a home with only a very short amount of time to find one. Katie went above and beyond to show us as many houses as possible, and made herself available whenever I called or emailed to answer questions about the process. If we weren't able to be present for inspections etc., Katie was there on time in our absence and called to give us a play by play/next steps right after."

"She also has a great reputation with other local professionals who were able to assist with various tasks needed to close on or inspect our home. It was great working with her!"

"Katie Wangrin provides excellent customer service to those seeking a new home and I highly recommend her. My husband and I had been seeking a new home for nearly a year when we were connected to Katie. She was always kind, empathetic and exhibited a tireless dedication in assisting us to find a home that was right for us. Katie is wonderful to work with!"

"We can't speak highly enough about our experience working with Katie. As first-time home buyers, we were completely unfamiliar with the process of buying a home, and she was with us every step of the way. She was always prompt about responding to phone calls, messages, and emails, and offered solid, impartial advice when we asked for it. She was knowledgeable and savvy. We really appreciated her help and will definitely use her again in the future!"

"From the start, the exceptional photos and 360 video to really showcase my property, I felt brought out the best and most serious clients. She eagerly provided an update to the many showings and worked diligently to make sure the property was staged for a positive show. Once a buyer made an offer, which was a very short time from the listing date, Katie, put us at ease through the closing process. Providing her exceptional professionalism from start to finish, I would recommend her to all that are selling or buying. I felt I was in good hands throughout my entire selling experience."

"I highly recommend Katie Wangrin for all your real estate needs in Western North Carolina. She did a fantastic job of merchandising my house to get a maximum offer and handled all the details of the sale flawlessly. Katie provided constant communication during the entire process and immediately got back to me when I had any questions or concerns."

"Emily is an excellent agent. She showed me numerous properties and was with me every step of the way from touring the homes to obtaining my mortgage to the closing. I would highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a home in the Asheville area and will be referring her to all of my business and personal contacts. She is very knowledgeable and an expert in her field. Thank you, Emily, for your guidance and superb customer service! I couldn't have done it without you!"
 

"Emily Short totally met all my expectations and needs. She helped me find and purchase a property as well as sell my previous home. Emily was respectful and personable with all persons we had contact with. When I had questions Emily Short would always get back to me in a timely fashion and find the information I needed. It was a pleasure working with her."

"I am so fortunate that I found Emily. Perfect house, great service, and a wonderful agent!!"

"Emily Short has a gentle and kind way about her. When things got stressful and a bit overwhelming Emily would assure me that everything was alright and that we were on track. Emily took care of everything that needed to be done. I was always able to contact Emily if I had a question or concern. Thank you so much, Emily, you are a gift from above!"

"Emily is an excellent agent. She showed me numerous properties and was with me every step of the way from touring the homes to obtaining my mortgage to the closing. I would highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a home in the Asheville area and will be referring her to all of my business and personal contacts. She is very knowledgeable and an expert in her field. Thank you, Emily, for your guidance and superb customer service! I couldn't have done it without you!"

"Emily is a very attentive, knowledgeable, helpful, sweet agent. She goes above and beyond while searching for the perfect property and always stayed in communication with us. While searching for our home we went to all areas of western NC and Emily was always available whenever I needed her. I would highly recommend Emily to anyone who is searching for their property."

"We have many friends who are Asheville realtors and we felt that Emily met our needs and worked best with our personalities. Her local knowledge and experience in our area were major factors in our decision. Emily went above and beyond our expectations!"

"I have to give my heartfelt thanks to your agent Emily Short for the wonderful job she did in selling our house in Candler. From beginning to end she kept in touch with us and guided us through the entire process with grace and professionalism. She was such a joy to work with. I have known Emily for several years, but not in this capacity and I'm so glad to call her my friend."

"We highly recommend Emily Short to handle any real estate transaction! She is professional, attentive and very personable. She has extensive knowledge of the area and goes the extra mile to provide quality service. She does an excellent job in all areas of the process—from listing to making the sale to closing. She will definitely be our agent for future transactions."

"Very knowledgeable and professional and her attitude and attention to detail was an overall great experience."

"Working with Emily was great. She delivered what she promised — even when on vacation! She was knowledgeable, competent, and professional. She helped us negotiate a fair price and worked well with the other realtor."

"There are so many things that can go wrong in a real estate deal. And nearly everything went wrong on ours. But it worked out in the end, thanks to the astounding persistence and professionalism of Jim Reid of Preferred Properties. Issue after issue popped up, and Jim was on top of it every time. He communicated with us quickly and clearly, explaining what was going on every step of the way. And he was great at answering our many questions. He worked with the seller, the seller's attorney, the bank, our attorney, the inspector, the closing attorney, and many other parties to iron out all the problems. Thanks to Jim, we are the proud owners of a new house. We honestly could not have done it without him."

"I have had the pleasure of working with Jim Reid on three real estate transactions. He orchestrated the buying of two homes and the selling of one home. Jim listened to every question that I had about buying and selling. I felt that he gave me wonderful sound advice in all three transactions. At times, I wondered if I was Jim's only client because he was ready to show me homes, answer phone calls at once, plans to advertise with ads, photos and online video, open house, suggestions on staging and he was 100 percent helpful in any way he could. I felt if you look up "Real Estate Agent" in the dictionary, you might find a picture and description of Jim Reid, a professional and caring real agent."

"Jim Reid listened to us about what we would like in a new home. We initially met Jim in the fall and told him that we would not be purchasing until the spring as we go south for the winter. Jim toured us in all directions around Asheville showing us a variety of homes and neighborhoods so that we felt comfortable in our final selection. He kept in touch with us during the winter months so that we were aware of the market which helped us to make a quick decision upon our return to Asheville."
 

"We had worked with Jim Reid previously and he was our first choice when we started our search. He is an excellent agent and his performance was professional and helpful at every point of our buying experience. We recommend him to others who are considering a real estate purchase. His experience in the area helped us find the best property and negotiate the price."

"In my previous dealings with Jim, I was impressed with his patience ( we were hard to suit) and his ability to locate properties that fit our requirements. He is such a kind and thoughtful person; I enjoyed working with him. Jim carefully read over the various contracts I had to sign. I appreciated his attention to detail and pointing out aspects I might have missed."

"Sandy was an excellent choice in my search for a home in Lake Lure. She did an excellent job researching the market and then showing me the homes that fit my criteria. She was always available to discuss various options and when we did find a home that would work for me, she was instrumental in negotiating a contract with the sellers that was very favorable to me. I would highly recommend Sandy as your agent."
 

"I received much-needed support from Sandy during this sale. As a first-time seller doing this on my own I needed a lot of guidance. It is important when your realtor recognizes that you need that extra attention and is willing to give it to you. Sandy was always willing to speak with me and attempt to answer my questions. I am grateful for this experience and would recommend Sandy Lindsey in the future."
 

"I want to bring to your attention the wonderful job that Sandy Lindsey did for us with the recent purchase of a house in Asheville. We had no previous knowledge of the area and Sandy was referred by a close friend. Sandy spent time driving us around to the various areas, arranged multiple showings on very short notice, and was delightful, engaging, and knowledgeable throughout the process. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Over the past two years, we have sold and bought four residences and have dealt with a number of brokers, Sandy stands out with her demeanor and helpful attitude. She reflects very positively on your office and organization. We are very pleased with the overall process and looking forward to the settling process in Asheville. Our very best wishes to you and the rest of the staff at Preferred Properties. Please give our thanks to Sandy for a job well done."
 

"Love working with Sandy. She's very knowledgeable about the area and she is not pushy. When we tell her what we want in a home she does not try to show us places that don't qualify. Sandy makes it so easy! We have used her for three transactions so far."

"Sandy Lindsey did a great job communicating with seller’s agent especially given the fact that owner lives out of the country. She handled all details in a professional and timely manner. Sandy made our buying experience smooth and uncomplicated. I would recommend Sandy and Preferred Properties to anyone who was looking to buy or sell."

"Sandy came highly recommended to us over ten years ago when we were considering selling our first home and buying another. We were amazed by her knowledge of the Asheville market. Sandy handled the negotiations so well and made the process as seamless as possible. When we recently decided to sell our home again, we couldn’t have imagined working with another realtor. Sandy is a great listener, excellent planner, and knows how to advocate for her client in the negotiation process. Her expertise and trustworthiness provided us with peace of mind. We recommend Sandy Lindsey!"

I live in Seattle, WA, and purchased a house near Asheville with Warrene’s guidance and assistance. Initially I felt skeptical about purchasing a house without being in town for the process. Warrene quickly put me at ease and made sure I see the properties via video, more than once if necessary. The communication was excellent and the follow through was stellar! Working with Warrene was top notch and I really could not have asked for anything more. Warrene was a great listener, laid back and yet constantly on the go on my behalf, and provided me with much insight and professional knowledge. She never pushed for more than I asked for. Her direct communication style is refreshing and upbeat. She is extremely trustworthy and truly goes the extra mile to make the search and transaction as smooth as possible. Warrene is well connected and highly respected in the real estate community. I feel very fortunate to have met Warrene and got the opportunity to work with her. If you are looking for a dedicated, honest, trustworthy agent with a great sense of humor and excellent listening skills, Warrene most definitely is the person you are looking for. Connect with her, let her tell you “I’m on it!”, and let her do her magic! You will be very happy! - A. Post

Warrene is an excellent real estate professional who stayed on top of every small detail from the offer I made on a property through the final stages of buying the home. I bought this home from a distance which made it more difficult but Warrene made this an easy process. I would highly recommend her as a real estate expert in Asheville. She is smart, knowledgeable, friendly and will keep you informed every inch of the way. - B. Pomeroy

Warrene went above and beyond in helping us find what we were looking for. We were looking for a "Lock and leave" condo as a weekend retreat. We originally thought about buying downtown, but Warrene advised us against that for our particular situation. We are glad we listened to her advice. Through Warrene's tenacity, we we able to close on our historic condo close enough to downtown - but with peace and tranquility. - J. Chambers

Warrene was an absolute joy to work with! She is professional, very knowledgeable, client focused, and trustworthy. Her expert guidance helped me secure the perfect place for my family that we will enjoy for many years to come. I really appreciate how she took the time to understand my unique needs as a buyer. She answered the "many" questions I had concerning the property (e.g., pros and cons) as well as the surrounding community. She handled negotiations in a smooth, responsive, and uneventful manner that put me at ease, especially as someone from out-of-town. I give her my highest recommendation. And I look forward to working with her again in the future! - O. Simmons

As an out of town buyer, I had worked with four other agents prior to meeting Warrene. She not only helped me locate my current home, but most importantly LISTENED to me. She was able to help direct me in so many ways, she is one in a million! She made certain that my out of own closing was without a problem, and was a major resource for information after the close. I'm pleased to call her a friend and I respect her professionalism. You'll have to go a long way to find anyone better than Warrene. - Armana
