Ryan helped me find and buy an amazing house, sight unseen, from across the country (my first…read morehouse!). He was helpful, knowledgeable, and appropriately skeptical as we were picking houses to bid on. He knew how to structure offers that were reasonable but strong, given our situation. He guided us through negotiations around inspections and shoring up loose legal ends, and he even helped us with a raw land opportunity that popped up halfway through our purchase. I'd absolutely work with Ryan again, but it went so well I have no reason to for quite some time.

Ryan is awesome! I highly recommend hiring him to be your real estate agent. When my husband and I…read morewere first looking to move to the area I did a quick search for real estate agents on Yelp, Ryan's paged looked great and since it said he responded to Yelp messages typically within an hour (because who wants to pick up a phone?!) I figured I would reach out to see if he had any last minute availability to show us to a few properties and he did. Although Ryan's office is based in Chapel Hill don't let that deter you, we were only looking in Raleigh. He knows all the ins and outs of the Raleigh neighborhoods and can get here quickly when you need him. We went under contract only two weeks after working with him. He uses Patrick with a local home inspection company to do the inspection and he did a thorough job. After the great inspection Ryan said the only thing left he could think of was a metal detector test of the property, since the house was older and there was a small chance of an underground oil tank. We did the test not thinking much of it and turns out there was an underground tank and it had extensively leaked. Ryan and his assistant Karen headed up making all the appointments and getting the right people out there to deal with the issue. Sadly the seller didn't want to really deal with the issue so away that contract went. Since Ryan knew what we were looking for was kind of niche he sent us a property here and there and we kept our eyes open as well. When a house popped up on the market on a Thursday night we text him if he could meet us there the next morning to take a look. He did and we feel in love. We put an offer in that day and started the process all over again. The second time around we worked with Karen a lot and she is great to work with as well. We successfully closed on this house and love where we ended up. An additional note since Ryan works in a group with a few other real estate agents if you need to see a house in a hurry and he isn't available, he will coordinate with someone in his office who is. Team work for the win!

He helped a family…read moremember find a home about eight years ago, and when it came time for us to begin searching for a new home, we immediately knew he was the person we wanted to call. Justin is incredibly dependable, patient, knowledgeable, and hardworking. He took the time to really listen to what we were looking for and guided us thoughtfully through every step of the process. We always felt that he had our best interests in mind and genuinely wanted to help us find the home that was right for our family. His extensive knowledge of the surrounding cities and communities was especially valuable. Justin understands that finding the right home is about more than the house itself--it's also about finding the right location, neighborhood, and overall fit. His years of experience, along with his engineering background, also give him a unique and helpful perspective when evaluating homes and helping clients make informed decisions. Beyond being an excellent realtor, Justin is simply a wonderful person--kind, trustworthy, responsive, and incredibly dedicated. After knowing him for so many years, we consider him a family friend and feel very fortunate to have had his guidance throughout such an important process. We would wholeheartedly recommend Justin to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

He made the entire process incredibly smooth and enabled us to complete the closing virtually without any issues. He was always responsive, proactive, and available whenever we needed guidance. Most importantly, he was someone we could fully trust throughout the entire process.

His background as a contractor and engineer is a nice addition and brings valuable insights to the table. He gave us great advice about picking out a lot, with special attention to the location, orientation, and lighting. We're delighted with the way the house turned out! In addition to his expert real estate advice, Steve is a joy to work with. He has wonderful interpersonal skills and is an excellent communicator. He knows how to communicate a client's needs and did an excellent job of advocating on our behalf. Even though we were living out of state, he helped us keep track of the construction process. He was more than generous with his time and did everything possible to see the process through to completion. Steve Doyle came highly recommended through a trusted friend. We had high expectations going into the process, but he has far exceeded them. We have owned a total of six houses and have worked with excellent realtors in the past. However, Steve has been the best of the best. He has our highest respect and admiration.

My wife and I hired Steve Doyle to represent us in the purchase of a new home in North Carolina…read morewhile we were still living in Arizona. The prospect of building a new home without being physically present during its construction made us a bit nervous, so we picked our realtor very carefully. We wanted our realtor to vigorously represent our interests while we were out of state as if he were buying the house himself. We could not be more pleased with our choice! It was obvious that Steve had a lot of experience. His depth of knowledge was very impressive and eased our concerns regarding new construction. Steve's attention to detail was second to none. More than once, we were able to avert a serious problem because Steve noticed it early on while it was easier to address it with the builder and have it fixed. It was during these times that we were grateful to have a realtor that not only had an eye for detail but also the experience to know what to look for. Steve was also invaluable in our dealings with the builder; he has great communication skills and always gave us great advice each time an issue arose during the build process. I highly recommend Steve Doyle to anyone who is looking for a realtor in the area. I'm just sad that I can't hire him to sell my house in Arizona. We worked so well together that it felt like I knew him much longer than I did. He was always quick to return my calls and seemed to legitimately care about getting his clients the best outcome possible. Thanks Steve!

Three words to describe Masha - Best...Agent...Ever!…read more Seriously, she and April are everything you could want to help you through the process of buying and selling. They are incredibly knowledgeable on the Chapel Hill area real-estate market and trends, extremely organized and on-top of things. All of that you should expect from anyone.

Masha's commitment doesn't stop when you've closed on your house, though - she's still there, whether it's to help with finding appliance manuals, commiserating over best-laid-plans, or to find that one email with a critical piece of information that you can't find.

We found Graham on yelp and could not have been happier…read more We were first time home buyers and very leery on whom we wanted to help us find our first house. We wanted someone that would be willing to guide us when needed, but was also willing to stand up for us if and/or when problems arose. Graham went above and beyond, we couldn't have asked for anyone better. I think Graham is always working. No matter what time of day I contacted him he always responded immediately. He always had our best interests in mind and not once did we feel rushed or pressured into anything. I never felt like I didn't' know what was going on; the entire process was as smooth as can be. He was able to give use recommendations on everything we asked/needed but never pressured us into using them if we didn't want to. Even after closing he has kept in contact to ensure everything has been going well! If you need a realtor; look no further, you have found him!

There was no wheelin and dealin or no fakey conversations. Just real people that reflected the Carrboro vibe. Much appreciated. And to breezy I, I too worked with Gary; however, I found him responsive by email, text, and phone, caring, and willing to go the proverbial "extra mile" for me. He was my favorite part of WSR, I am sorry you had such a different experience. All that said, I will take my business back there again when I need to buy or sell in the area. Count on it.
