    About Steve Payne

    Hi, I'm Steve! Once upon a time I took a road trip down the east coast and ended up in Raleigh. I fell in love with the area, the weather, and the people and knew I'd found home. I purchased my first home shortly thereafter and started getting my hands dirty in real estate (literally) with renovations. I later purchased an investment property and received my MBA, which inspired me to turn real estate into my full time business. When I'm not with clients you'll find me grabbing a beer at the newest local brewery, searching for the next hidden gem restaurant, mingling at Cars and Coffee events, or exploring trails with my wife and our two dogs. If you are feeling nervous about relocating or purchasing your first home, searching for that diamond in the rough, or just looking for a great new local spot to try, I'm your guy!

    Steve is a great realtor to work with! He is knowledgable, trustworthy, and provided wonderful guidance as we purchased our first home! He took us to several properties throughout the Triangle and helped us narrow down which area was best for us!

    Steve was amazing! He helped us understand what we really wanted in a house and even showed us the home we ended up buying. He was there for us throughout the entire process. He made sure that we could get into the home we wanted. As first time homebuyers we knew basically nothing about the process but he helped us through all of it. 1000/10

From start to finish, Steve was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly dedicated to helping me find the right place. Steve took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and was always available to answer questions, schedule showings, and offer honest advice. His deep knowledge of the Raleigh market and attention to detail made the entire process smooth and stress-free. He was proactive, communicative, and truly had my best interests at heart every step of the way. Thanks to Steves expertise and persistence, I found a home that I absolutely love. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Raleigh areaaEUR"hes a true professional who goes above and beyond for his clients.

    Steve is absolutely the best realtor in town. He made the home buying process seamless. I regret that I only have 5 stars to give him. Steve negotiated a fantastic price and made sure everything was in place to close on time.

    A Truly Trustworthy and Caring Agent! This was my second time working with Steve, and I couldnt have asked for a better experience. He originally helped us buy our home, and even after closing, he kept in touchaEUR"always thoughtful, sending little gifts and even a memorable one for our home. Unfortunately, I got sick and had to sell, and Steve was there for us every step of the way. He not only helped us sell when another agent couldnt but also checked in on me personally throughout the process. Due to our financial circumstances, we had to do a short sale. He made sure we didn't have to pay anything out of pocket and helped with that as well! His kindness, dedication, and expertise made such a stressful time so much easier. If youre looking for someone who truly cares and goes above and beyond, Steve is the agent you want by your side. Highly recommend!
