Hiring a buyer's agent in NC typically costs the buyer nothing since most sellers agree to pay the commission even thought your buyer's agent is representing you. Find an agent you like and is knowledgeable and work with them instead of jumping from agent to agent. Not only is is easier and more efficient to use one agent, but if they've helped you with all showings, they get a better sense of what you like and don't and more effectively help you find the right home.

List with someone that knows the market really well and has a true marketing plan. Some people list with someone that's a friend or because the agent is reducing their commission. A good REALTOR like a good surgeon. Experience matters, so hire the best.

My team and I have helped thousands of buyers and sellers over the past decade, so we've seen it all before and know the market well. Whether you're a first time home buyer, an investor, or anything in between, we're able to help.

My team helps about 200 buyers and sellers each year, so I'm not sure that I have a favorite. For me, it's about building those lifelong relationships. I enjoy keeping in touch with my sellers and buyers, so it's flattering to me to get repeat business and referrals from past clients. To me, that's the greatest compliment.

I joined my father, who is a REALTOR and had more clients than he could handle. Team Gale gradually grew out of that and now has about a dozen agents across Southeastern NC working as neighborhood specialists.

In addition to lots of real world experience, continuing to further my real estate education is important to me. As a result, I have more designations than just about any REALTOR in town. I do this because knowledge is power and I want you to have the best REALTOR possible.
