Mary Cates

I'm a Southern California native and a graduate of the Pepperdine University Graziadio School of Business. During a family visit to friends in North Carolina, we discovered the beauty and tranquility of the Piedmont Triad--and instantly knew we had found our happy place. Making the move from the West Coast to the East Coast can feel overwhelming, which is why having a knowledgeable, dedicated real estate professional makes all the difference. My own experience with buying and selling homes inspired me to pursue a career in real estate. Since becoming a licensed Broker/Realtor, I've had the privilege of helping a wide range of clients, from first-time homebuyers and relocating families to those upgrading, downsizing, or moving in and out of state. Each transaction is unique, and I bring a deep understanding of the process along with a full set of tools to guide clients every step of the way. I'm known for my attention to detail, clear communication, patience, and calm, professional demeanor. My passion lies in serving others, and I'm committed to making the real estate journey as smooth, informed, and successful as possible for every client I work with.
