From our initial conversation with Caroline, my wife and I knew her search for the perfect house…read moreand our purchase of a new home in the High Country was going to be a wonderful experience, and she did just that. Caroline's knowledge of the area was very impressive and extensive. Being from out of town, she took it upon herself to go view homes for us, take a a video and send to us. This is dedication and willingness to work with you. We cannot express our sincerest thanks to Caroline for her many hours she put in to find us what we were looking for. One other great trait was her communication and walking us through every process smoothly with complete enthusiasm and utmost honesty. We highly recommend Caroline as you next Realtor. P.

My latest listing contract expired in October, and never heard from them. I emailed and phoned my listing agent Katelyn several times but have heard nothing. Last Thursday I emailed my original listing agent Kimberly, And she did respond by providing me the phone number for the owner/broker. He called and explained that he could not understand why Katelyn had not responded and said she had recently married (so????). But he said he would make sure she reached out. I type this one week later, and I've heard from NO ONE! So, who needs this company? Not me. I will make a point of sharing with whom ever I can that this company is useless. Katelyn, Kimberly and Ray, thanks again for nothing.

Pro: 1. good…read morelocation, walking distance to most stores, downtown, restaurants, hospital, and gas station. 3. Reasonably priced, unfurnished. 2. Maintenance guy is super friendly, sweet and helpful. He is the least appreciated person by the owner of the property. 3. Relatively safe, although I have heard gun shots followed by police cars before. 4. Neighbors keep to themselves. 5. Water cost is included for now. 6. Comes with adorable stray cats, most neighbors feed them, while the landlord expressed hatred toward these defenseless souls. Con: 1. House feels weathered. I had leaky window and faucet when I first moved in. The walls are thin, there is little privacy even though this is a town house. The floor was so dirty that after 6 months of living here and moping the floor everyday, the water still comes out black. The carpet is old with stains everywhere. 2. No pet policy, nothing at all, not even if you want to look after your friend's hamster for a few days. 3. Sketchy neighbors. The place asks everyone to pay $25 for background check, but I doubt they do the checks, because even the rats living in my attic can tell some of them were drug dealers. 4. Condescending owner who is always on the defense when talking to you. She always assumes her tenants are either retarded or taking advantages of her. 5. I kept reporting water leakage in my apartment and the only time she sent someone to fix it was when they realized their water bill was off the roof. Property owner doesn't even bother to hire a professional when the water pipe broke, the poor maintenance guy had to fix it by himself. Or they stopped the water on purpose to keep the water bill down, who knows, the owner is not that trust worthy. 6. No recycle bin, stray cats come feast in the dumpster all the time. Overall: It is decent place for a temporary stay if you want to save money. Semi-family friendly, not pets friendly (not sure if I trust people who cannot love animals), not environmental friendly. You are stuck with rats as pets when you move in and free alarm clocks when neighbors wake up at 4 or 5 AM for work, and you'll never be late for work. It is very hard to find apartment in this area. I suggest you look at Hickory. I have also noticed it is almost impossible to get a good deal on Internet in Lenoir. If you work in Lenoir, the drive from Hickory is still totally worth it.

We most highly recommend Scott Warren of Boone Realty. Scott is a veteran realtor and specializes…read morein Boone and surrounding area which is a critical distinction for selling or buying property in the area. I've purchased/sold 4 homes across the country and Boone has unique factors that I've never encountered in any other town. My husband and I inherited a home in Boone NC which we rented out for 14 years. We live in California and haven't seen the place since. We started talking to Scott over a year ago as he guided us through the various considerations to get the house sold in this ever-changing market. Scott checked out the house and provided recommendations on every aspect of the sale including the "do's" and "don'ts" on improvements to the house, time of sale (tricky with a rental), and even suggested we raise the rent before the next cycle (new tenants, new lease) as it was undermarket price . We immediately felt at ease. As we progressed through the process, Scott was super responsive, assisted with every request, and always made us feel like we were treasured clients even though our house was far from "high-end". As we neared the time for selling, the pace picked up. Scott's expertise and experience were invaluable as we encountered various "local" quirks, one being that we had a shared road with multiple neighbors with no shared maintenance contract. He handled every obstacle with ease. We closed on the sale much faster than we expected and within our expected price range. We feel certain had it not been for Scott, we would have had a very different (negative) outcome. As we got to know Scott (virtually), it was clear he's noble, honorable, and cares greatly for friends, clients, and community. We're thrilled we found him. It was an honor to do business with him.

I was referred to Tried and True Roofing from a business that I had previously done business with. I contacted Phillip Oliver and he came by that day to measure, and gave me an estimate before he left. He was 25% of the cost of the next closest estimate, AND he was responsive thoughout! With his estimate being so low, one would be wary of the quality of workmanship. Since the business that recomended him is top notch, I had few reservations. Admittedly, much of the work that was estimated by others was unnecessary. Within 3 weeks of my first contact, my repair was COMPLETE! Phillip and his crew were professional, prompt, dedicated, hard working, efficient, and completed the work in a day and a half! They did a great job with cleanup too. He requires no money up front, and offers 100% satisfaction. I can't recommend him highly enough!
