About Gary Traflet

<p>As a lifelong North Carolinian, Gary has been fortunate enough to have lived in several cities throughout the state from the mountains to the coast. Prior to real estate, his career was in big box retail store management. Upon graduating from East Carolina University, he joined Wal-Mart stores and was transferred to Elkin, NC. Soon after he worked in Hickory, NC and later became the store manager in Taylorsville, NC. After successfully converting that store into a supercenter, he took an opportunity to join Target stores and relocated to Jacksonville, NC and then on to Wilmington.<br /><br />He still remembers his first house hunting trip that happened in late October. His wife and him took some time to walk down to the beach only to see everyone in their bathing suits enjoying the beautiful weather. He felt like they had switched seasons as back home the leaves had already turned, and winter was well on its way. He remembers thinking to himself "I could sure get used to this place!"<br /><br />After a successful career in retail and collaborating with people to build and ensure customer satisfaction, real estate became a natural fit for him. He thinks the best part of real estate is that he can exclusively focus on the needs of his client. He strives to form a partnership where he listens to his client's desires and work to anticipate their needs. The best way to make this happen is to simply put himself into their shoes.<br /><br />His wife is a teacher at Masonboro Elementary school, and they have two daughters Caroline and Lauren. Lauren is an athletic trainer at Carolina Family Practice & Sports Medicine in Holly Springs, NC and Caroline has graduated and followed in her mother's footsteps as a 1st grade teacher here in Wilmington at Bradley Creek Elementary. He is very in tune with school related issues and always advise buyers to make this a major part of their decision-making process. Resale values will fluctuate from one district to another as parents strive to keep their children in the school system that they feel most comfortable with.<br /><br />Now that you have read about him, he looks forward to having the opportunity to get to know more about his potential client. Contact him today so that they can get started! </p>

Gary went above and beyond for us during the purchase out-of-state purchase of our new home. Every communication with him was pleasant and unrushed. He helped us navigate the selling/buying process. He answered all of our questions with his wealth of knowledge, and even provided insight on financing and suggestions on the sale of our last home. Gary is informed on the history of home building materials and processes, builders and developments in the area. He identified significant pros and cons that never even crossed our minds. Ultimately, the property we purchased was exactly what we were looking for and exceeds our expectations in every way. It is not an exaggeration to say that if Gary was not our realtor, we would not have landed this property. We are forever in his debt. Furthermore, while coordinating our sale, purchase and relocation, Gary even offered his own home to let us store some large items we were needing to move ahead of time. He anticipates any issues and provides a solution. If you are in the market for a realtor, Gary is your man! We cannot praise him enough.

Gary is an excellent agent. He goes above and beyond on every sale. He keeps in touch throughout the process so you know how things are going and what your next step is. Gary helped us buy the house in 2008 and then sell it this year. Best realtor I have worked with.

We definitely made the right choice with Gary! We needed to sell quickly, and quickly we sold! He was extremely responsive and helpful where we needed it, from helping us with photos for the listing, to providing us with names and numbers for people who could help us get photo-ready and move-out-clean. He was extremely knowledgeable about the area, and walked us through the whole process, making sure we understand every document we were presented to sign. I would recommend him to anyone looking to sell their home in Wilmington.

Gary is the best. We purchased a home with Gary 13 years ago and cant imagine going through the process of selling a home or buying a home without him. He is a wonderful agent and goes beyond expectations with help all along the way. He walked us through everything from clearing out the house to sell as well as putting us in touch with others who could help us have a successful sale. You cant do any better than having Gary as your agent on either end. We feel extremely fortunate to have been led to him. Marty and John Denison

Gary is a true professional. We would strongly recommend Gary for your real estate needs. His knowledge of the entire purchasing process was extremely helpful. He answered all of our questions in a timely manner and if he did not know the answer, he was able to research and provide us with the correct information. This was the smoothest purchase that we have been a part of.
