"Valerie goes out of her way to make the transactions go smoothly. She is very knowledgeable and I would recommend her without any reservation ????. We had a contract on our home within a week. Before we listed the home Valerie made recommendations to “show” our home. I think we had about 5 showings the first week and had a contract very soon."

What can I say that would really tell anyone how amazing Tyler is?!? He's has helped us through selling a home, and buying twice, and we will for sure be using his services for any future home transactions! If you are looking for a honest, funny and dependable realtor, give Tyler a call today! He's become someone we actually enjoy hanging around, even without having a contract or listing between us!

Amy was very patient with us as we selected our new home. She listened to all our "must haves" for a new home. She only showed us the homes that contained our "must haves" within our price range. Amy is very attentive to details and was very helpful during the entire process.

I would recommend Ty the Realty Guy to anyone in the market of buying or selling a home. We met Ty at an open house and instantly loved him. We had previously sold and bought two other homes under another realtor and their level of service and professionalism was no where near the level of Ty's. He helped us not only selling our home, but then buying a new one. While selling our home he walked us through the process step by step. He was very open and honest about everything along the way. We never felt pressured to do anything. He told us the pros and cons of everything and then respected and supported our decisions. He paid for a professional to come take photos and offered suggestions on how to improve our home without spending a lot of money. Within days of doing these upgrades, our home was under contract. While buying our new home, he was patient and answered every question we had, no matter how crazy we may have seemed to him. He worked hard for us and was able to get both closings in a time frame that worked best for us. By the end of the process, Ty became another member of our family. Ty is a true professional that will work hard for his clients. He was in constant communication and would answer questions within hours, if not minutes. He made a very stressful process so much smoother. He is honest, hard working, and has a great sense of humor. We love our Ty and would recommend him to anyone!

Tyler is an amazing realtor! He helped me sell 2 homes and buy my dream home and also helped my parents buy their home. He really got to know me and understand what my needs were at different stages of my life. He is a good listener, a great advocate, and a hard worker. He is hilarious, but serious when he needs to be. He is great at offering a calm voice of reason during a stressful time. He will help you with whatever you need!! Highly recommended!!

Amy Huff Fann was my agent during my buying process, not only was she amazing though the overall process of dealing with me and the seller, but she did all this professionally through an ongoing pandemic crisis.

"Tracy listed my home and we received 2 offers within the first 48 hours on the market!! Tracy also helped me with the purchase of my new home. She was instrumental in arranging all inspections and provided me with resources to assist in having all necessary repairs completed. She was very prompt in answering emails and text messages and kept me informed with everything going on with both my sale and my purchase. Tracy knows the market in this area very well and truly cares about making sure her clients have the best experience possible when selling and/or purchasing their home.

Amy was absolutely wonderful! This was actually the second house we've purchased with her. She's quick to answer and never makes you feel like you're bugging her.

"Thank you Tracy Riba for all your help and working so hard to make this process so smooth! Yall, if you're needing a Realtor, this is your gal! From the planning to signing the house away she made the process easy. She gave great advice and feedback. Her diligent work paid off big time! While we were readying our house for listing, she was putting the word out that it was coming. We had our first showing within 6 hours of our listing going live and first offer in less than 24 hours. In 4 days, we accepted a full price offer. It truly was a smooth process that almost felt to good to be true. The Lord worked it all out from putting us with Tracy."

Amy was fantastic! She was very knowledgeable and incredibly active throughout our process. She gave plenty of needed advice and reassurance through out.

If you are looking for a realtor that does her research, is flexible and willing to work with you, is honest and responsible, and truly listens to you in order to assist you in buying or selling your home or land, Amy Huff Fann is the realtor you want on your side. Amy is extremely professional, but also cares deeply about her clients. She is extremely knowledgeable regarding the buying/selling of property or land, current market values, and she knows the "ins and outs" of how to find what her client is looking for all while keeping them in budget. As a first time home buyer, Amy was easy to talk to, walked my husband and I through the entire buying process, and she also made herself available whenever we had additional questions or concerns. Amy followed our journey from the first day we started looking at houses to the final day where we sat together for closing. It took a while for my husband and I to find our first home. Amy's persistence and sheer determination not to quit found us our dream home. You won't find a realtor better than this lady! 5/5 in all categories. A+++++ service. If you want to buy or sell, give her a call. You will NOT regret it!

"Honest and always available. Tracy Riba worked diligently to market and sell my home. After experiencing poor service with another agency Tracy and Carolina Realty showed me how clients should be treated. Once I listed with Tracy I had showings on a weekly basis. Tracy exceeded my expectations by assisting the buyer in getting a loan after the first lender failed to close the sale. She not only knows the market but also knows the importance of communication with her client"

Nerisa offered my family and I the best experience as first time home buyers! We were apprehensive about the daunting process of home buying, yet, Nerisa made us feel at ease and excited about the whole process. She really listens and pays attention to detail. Her calm demeanor matched by her professionalism truly made our whole process effortless. She answered all of our questions and would go beyond her duties to find answers for us. Nerisa made our home buying experience simply put...easy! I would highly recommend Nerisa without hesitation! We were truly blessed to have found her. Thank you Nerisa for going above and beyond!

Amy was great to work with. She is very through and gives you all the information needed to make the best decision for your situation. We had an unexpected situation arise with our buyers and she was very good at negotiating and giving us our choices and ultimately helping us to decide to relist our house.
She is also very knowledgeable about the area and a wonderful advocate and liaison in the building process of new home. I highly recommend her : )

I had a lot of questions and a situation that is not typical for most people who are buying a home but Amy knew all of the answers or found someone right away who could help to find the answers!

I would highly recommend Ty to anyone looking to find their forever home in the Raleigh area. Ty was very attentive throughout our entire home search, making himself readily available to show a home or work with us on an offer. During our final walk through on our new home, he was present for our walkthrough and serve as an extra set of eyes to make sure everything was just right! He spoke up and voiced his stance on issues that he felt should be fixed within the home, which served us well! He dealt with our lender and really took care of the whole process. It was wonderful to have the realtor cover all the details!! Searching for your new home can already be exhausting, family, work, kids. No one has time to do their realtors job too, with Ty that would never happen. Truly went above and beyond!

I have worked with Valerie Dupree in both selling and buying capacities. She has been consistently knowlegable, helpful, responsive and effective. When I have reached out, she has responded very quickly. She has a great grasp of the pricing strategies that will sell your home quickly. Our first home sold in five months with her in a poor market, our second home sold in less than a month in a better market. In addition to being a very professional and effective realtor, she is a wonderful person! I feel so happy and grateful that we have worked together to sell two homes and purchase two homes over the past ten years. Anyone would be very fortunate to work with her!

Since we were coming from out of the area, she was priceless in helping our home choice and purchase happen, always responded when asked anything, has extensive knowledge about her area covered and was always a pleasure to deal with. Amy told us her valuable opinion when asked and would even stop by homes listed and tell us honestly what shape it was in. she even did a visual walk thru with her phone for us to see, live what shape the house was in. would recommend her to anyone looking in Amy's area.

I used to think I wanted to be a realtor...until I became a home seller and buyer! Christine Stilley helped me more than I can put into words. She set up THE best photographer, did multiple open houses, actively marketed on Facebook and social media, and I even saw her sweeping my driveway one day. Not to mention that she brought me a cash offer with a fast closing!
Being a single mom and first time buyer of a home on my own, I had no idea where to go for lending. She sent me to Kea Blivens with Homespire Mortgage. Within a week I was approved and all set!! Me!! Approved for a loan on my own!!
If you are thinking that is all she did for me...wait for it...there is more. As a home buyer I had zero clue what I was looking for. So in a seller’s market, house shopping we went (and went, and went, and went). I am embarrassed to say that I had her write seven offers on homes before the right one worked out. SEVEN!!! No offer I could make in this market would go through. Until we found the right one. Standing in the kitchen during the showing I had goose-bumps all over and I knew it was THE one. She walked me through the offer and within 30 days I have sold and bought a new home.
I cannot express in words what Christine Stilley has done for me and my family. My life is in a better place due to her persistence, dedication, knowledge, and her professionalism. She is the most amazing realtor I’ve ever met.Thank you, Christine, for everything!!

Amy was an absolute pleasure to work with. I am the type of person to ask lots of questions and want the play by play of the entire process. She was always on top of everything, responded quickly every time, was always friendly, very knowledgeable of the market, and sincerely cared about us! The home I had my eye on, and what we are now living in, was in a very desired neighborhood where homes sold within hours of being listed. She made sure we were ready with our offer and had great advice to get our offer noticed! I could not be more pleased with Amy and would recommend her to anyone!

From the very start of the process of selling our home, we were impressed by Nerisa’s knowledge of the area in which we lived.
The pictures she took of the house were very professional. Her advice on the selling price was perfect, as we sold our home to the first prospective buyer. We had so many questions during the process. She was always available when we needed to contact her, and quickly responded to our calls and emails. Nerisa was amazingly patient and kind to us through this whole process. She is very bright, professional and thorough. She is now working with us as we purchase our new home. We highly recommend her services in buying or selling a home!

Christine has been the greatest realtor. She has gone ABOVE AND BEYOND for us! You will never find another realtor as responsive and hard working as Christine Stilley.

We used Mrs Fann to sell our home in Benson NC. from the start she was attentive and knowledgeable of the local housing market. She was easy to communicate with and returned inquiries promptly. When the sellers bank wanted outrageous demands she ran interference and handled all the time consuming details. She even went to closing to allow us to focus on our own employment. Amy was great and we highly recommend her!

Nerisa was impressive from our first meeting, and remained very insightful and helpful throughout my recent home buying experience. She listened carefully to what I wanted, and to what I did not want, to help me find homes that were good uses of my time. Instead of Glen Laurel, she helped me find a rare gem in the equestrian community of Portofino. Once I was settled on the home and ready to make a firm offer, Nerisa was timely and accurate in communicating questions and important clarification and negotiation points with the builder and builder's realtor. She was about as excited as I was to find this beautiful new home! Very highly recommended

Amy has sold a house for us previously and also, negotiated the purchase of a tract of land prior to this transaction.

Where do you begin with Valerie Dupree?? She is by FAR the best realtor our family has ever used, and unless we move far away is the ONLY realtor we will ever use. She is so professional from the first moment you interview her for your listing, all the way to closing. She is easy to reach when there are questions, and she is so knowledgeable about real estate it's great comforting to get sound advice from her. The first house we sold with her sold in less than three weeks. We have also retained her to help us buy two other houses. We are currently retaining her to sell a second house, and know it will go smoothly!! Please do yourself a favor. Stop looking for other realtors in the Clayton/Raleigh area. Hire Valerie Dupree!!

TY did an amazing job at selling our home!! We thought starting out this was going to be an easy sale but once we got into it, it wasnt :( everything that could go wrong did go wrong and Ty stayed calm and held our hand as we walked through the process.

Valerie Dupree is a consumate professional who loves the work she does and the clients she works with. She has exceptional people skills and leaves no stone unturned when helping her clients. She worked with us to find a home in the Raleigh/Clayton area for over a year and finally convinced us that the only way we would be satisfied is by building our own home.
Valerie was correct. We now have the home of our dreams and we are thankful that she suggested we consider this option. We moved here in January, 2014 and still keep in touch. My husband and I recommend Valerie Dupree without reservations to anyone looking to buy or sell their home or land. Having lived here all her life, she has a strong sense of what each client needs and can provide the knowledge of the area and resourcefulness to fulfill her responsibilities.

Positive: Professionalism, Responsiveness
Several years ago when we bought & sold our last home, I thought we had a good experience with our realtor then, but after having gone through the process with Christine I was floored by everything she did, not just to help us sell our old home, but to get us into the new home we loved. She had an answer for all our questions. She had wonderful contacts for anything we needed done, from movers to inspectors etc. She was the perfect person to have on our side.
Christine is beyond words! To say we are happy or impressed is an understatement.

I have known Christine for several years and always loved her enthusiasm and people skills. When it came time to sell our big house and find a slightly smaller one in a neighborhood we wanted, I immediately thought of Christine as our agent. She flawlessly helped us purchase and close on the "new" house and I have every confidence she will work tirelessly to find a buyer for our home. Coming from a career retired Navy family, we have bought and sold numerous homes over the last 44 years and dealt with many realtors, but Christine has impressed me the most. She even helped me bury St. Joseph by the for sale sign in our yard.

Christine is a true professional. She has been so patient as we have wanted to see so many different homes. This is our first house, and even though we haven't found :"the one" yet, I know with her guiding us, we will.

Amy was an absolute pleasure to work with. I am the type of person to ask lots of questions and want the play by play of the entire process. She was always on top of everything, responded quickly every time, was always friendly, very knowledgeable of the market, and sincerely cared about us! The home I had my eye on, and what we are now living in, was in a very desired neighborhood where homes sold within hours of being listed. She made sure we were ready with our offer and had great advice to get our offer noticed! I could not be more pleased with Amy and would recommend her to anyone!

Valerie Dupree has helped me sell and buy two homes. She is attentive and helpful, and she always goes above and beyond to help her clients. She is available to answer questions and provide advice, and she is very knowledgeable about all of the ins and outs of real estate. She has helped many of my family members buy and sell as well, and everyone has had a positive encounter. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell!

Amy Fann is simply the best ! I cannot say enough WONDERFUL things about her. She is honest , extremely attentive , and down to earth. We have used her to sell three houses and with each sell ,she showed the same professional but personal attention to every detail. It didn't matter if it was a small house or a large house, she showed the same amount of attention. I never texted or called her that she didn't respond immediately and always made me feel like I was her only client , even though I know she is always crazy busy. It is so obvious that she loves her job and she loves people. Working with Amy made selling my houses a joy. I can honestly say that after working with her over this last couple of years, I consider her a friend and I would never consider using anyone else .

Working with Valerie Dupree was a great experience! She was always pleasant to be around, and she was very patient as I navigated the process of buying a home for the first time. I highly recommend her to anyone in the area looking to purchase a home!

When we were trying to sell our home and buy one at the same time we were really worried how that could even be done. Then we found Ty on FB... he made both processes smooth as silk. He kept us calm and was available basically night and day. If you want someone to help make a stressful process smooth and has your best interest in mind look no more. Ty is your guy!

I highly recommend Ty. I stumbled upon his realty page on Facebook somehow (videos are hilarious and fun!) and knew he'd be the realtor for us. He adds humor to the process (which I like!) but at the same time provides the professionalism that you need when you need it. Also, the whole process was very smooth and easy for us from beginning to end (second time home buyers, but first time in the Raleigh market). We will be contacting Ty again for future sellings/purchases in the Raleigh area. We already have potential future buyers that we have referred as well. You won't be sorry with Ty! You will have a blast. :)

“We relocated to the Clayton/Garner area from New Jersey. After meeting with several local realtors, and touring many homes, we ended up very frustrated and disappointed. And then we met Tracy Riba. Tracy far exceeded our expectations. I can’t begin to describe her attention to detail, level of organization and knowledge of the area, subdivisions, builders, market conditions, and the entire home buying process. She not only found us the perfect home, but she was our advocate and represented our needs through the entire process. Purchasing a home long distance is stressful, complicated and scary…but Tracy made the experience exciting and worked very hard to make sure that we were happy every step of the way. She was always available to answer our questions and provide invaluable information. She even helped us get our utilities turned on, our children enrolled in school, and gave us lists of local daycares, doctors, dentists, etc. We were completely blown away by the personalized service that Tracy provided. She focused on our family and our best interests. She was always there, making sure that every detail of our new home was exactly what we wanted. She made sure that we were treated fairly and gave us the information and advice that we needed to make the best decisions. I absolutely recommend Tracy if you are looking for a realtor that is knowledgeable, organized, friendly, and focused solely on your needs and wants.”

What a blessing and what an honor to work with this amazing woman! My wife, our 5 children, and I were looking to sell our home and buy a new home at the same time. Amy drove long hours and met us at different houses until we found the perfect home. And we eventually did. We closed on our new home in Parkton NC on my birthday May 25th and we closed /sold our previous home in Coats NC yesterday June 1st.
Words cannot express how perfect things went working with Amy in a very imperfect situation buying and selling homes at the same time pushing and pulling from both directions.
We are now moved into our dream home with plenty of space for our growing family. I am grateful that the process of both buying and selling a house is finally over; Yet, I will forever be impacted and encouraged to put forth the same work ethic, trust, faithfulness, dedication, and hard-work that Amy has demonstrated while helping me and my family. Absolutely “no one else” better to help you and your family. Thank you Amy. You could have just went 1 mile with us as required; But you chose to go the extra miles to help and guide us. We salute you!

Valerie was of great help to us selling our home. From the very beginning of the process (what we should update or fix, how to increase curb appeal) and through the sale she was there for us every step of the way. I recommend her work to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Clayton/Garner/Raleigh area!

Carmen is absolutely amazing. Her personable nature and knowledge of Johnston County made a stressful process so much easier to deal with. She took us to see dozens of homes and kept notes of the things that meant the most to us. She helped us find our Dream Home and advised us through the negotiating process, which allowed us to get a great deal.
We then moved quickly to list our current house. She gave us pointers on things to showcase the features of both the inside and outside of the house. She prepared the perfect listing, resulting in a great response. We received multiple offers and went under contract quicker then we could've ever imagined.
I've dealt with other realtors in the past while buying land and purchasing & selling 3 houses. THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT IT, SHE IS THE BEST!

We have used Valerie Dupree for multiple home sales. She is available for questions, works very hard, and is very patient with all your questions. She reminded us constantly of things we forgot and always followed up. Responses were accurate and on time.

Amy was wonderful throughout our home selling process. We were kept informed, given great advice and she walked us through every step of this stressful endeavor. Amy is a real estate agent who lets you know you, and your home, are her first priority when it comes to selling your home. Please contact Amy if you want a positive home selling experience.

As a single mom and first time homebuyer, I was rather anxious and also excited about purchasing my first home. Christine works hard to get to know exactly what you and your family want and need, and is so patient and honest with the shopping/purchasing process! She found me the perfect home and helped me keep my sanity while completing a goal that I wasn't sure I'd achieve... home ownership by 40!

Amy was recommended to me by an experienced realtor in another state. She proved to be a good choice -- tolerant of this buyer's offbeat criteria, patient when properties didn't work out, knowledgeable of communities and neighborhoods, and able to research property issues. She was unusually patient in negotiating with seller's "difficult" agent and helped pull off the sale when I didn't think it would work out.

Valerie is a professional in every sense of the word. Her experience and expertise made our home buying experience seamless. She kept us informed every step of the process, and was always quick to respond when we had questions. Valerie listened to what we were looking for in a house, and helped us find the ideal home. If you're looking to buy or sell a home, we would highly recommend Valerie Dupree.

Christine is awesome to work with. She is client focused, my fiance and I were first time home buyers she explained the process to us, and was fighting for us every step of the way. She is patient and truly trying to find the right house for you. I wouldn't work with any other realtor other than Christine!!

Christine has to be one of the hardest working agents in this industry. She has shown us many homes in a short period of time. Christine did not shy away from long days and searched out more possibilities daily. She shows a determination to find us the perfect home. We definitely would recommend her for buying or selling a home.

I will highly recommend Amy to any person needing to sell their home in a speedy and knowledgeable manner. She preforms her business with professional care and experience to get the results her client's need.
I was in a situation of working 200 miles from home and needing to quickly relocate my family near to my workplace city. Amy understood my concerns. She also was able to get the best price thru negotiation for my home with the buyer and agent.
Selling and buying a home is always stressful, as I have moved about every 10 years. Amy made this move as painless as possible, and we are grateful. She is an Ace! We were Lucky to have her!

Shirley Brett was our commercial real estate agent and helped us find a retail location for our new gift store in downtown Clayton. We were very specific about what we were looking for, maybe too specific, and there did not appear to be very much available. Shirley went above and beyond what we would have expected so she could find us the right spot. She called the owners of retail spaces that appeared empty and inquired about their availability, even when they were not being advertised. She asked around, listened to word of mouth, put her ear to the grapevine and found the perfect spot for us, much to our surprise and amazement. We have worked with other real estate agents, and none have put as much energy and effort into helping us as Shirley did. She found the perfect location for our business, and we are not only happy with her services, we are grateful. If you are looking for the absolutely best person in the area to help you with your real estate needs, you can stop looking because you have found her.

Christine was amazing to work with! My fiancé and I found out we’re expecting our first child and needed to find a home fast! We told her what our budget was and she showed us the best houses for our budget. She was very patient and listens to everything you say about a house. Your likes and dislikes are taken into consideration and she never makes you feel pressured to buy. She kept us very informed and was always available for questions no matter the day or time. She helped us find a perfect house in just a few short months! She will treat you like family and help accomplish your vision for your new home!

Amy goes above and beyond to make the experience absolutely stress free. Before I could even ask the my list of questions, which came on a daily basis, she had already answered them all. She is very informative and prepared for anything. I would recommend her for anyone trying to sell their home. We plan to buy a home eventually and our family is grateful to know that Amy will be their for us once again as our realtor.

Words can not express my admiration for Tyler Huff, aka Ty the Reality Guy. I am not a big review writer but this has significance if your looking for someone you can trust before, during and after the home buying experience. We had complications during the selling and buying of our new home concerning inspections, loans and all the other fun activities associated with reality. Tyler was called by my wife and I so many times with questions, concerns and emergencies and he always professional and went the extra mile to ensure everything was accomplished and our minds were put at ease. We liked him so much we used him to sell my Mother-in-Law's house which he did in three weeks. Recently I had an issue with my HOA and was having problems reaching someone who could assist me in a very short amount of time. Ty made some calls late that evening and everything was handled professionally the next day. I am very proud now that we have been in our new home over two years, we can still call Ty our friend. He makes things happen and we would never use or recommend anyone else concerning his profession.

Nerisa was the best part of our whole process. She was hyper responsive and wrestled our every concern to completion. Helping us to understand the process was key and she is without a question in the corner of the people she represents. She was an absolute blessing for us.

In moving to the area after living out-of-state for many years, Valerie Dupree was recommended to me as an agent who knew the area well and was someone I could trust to represent me well in the home buying process. She far exceeded my expectations! A true professional in every way, she was an expert in the housing market in this area and beyond, had excellent communication and negotiation skills, was always very prompt and responsive in communicating with me, and I always felt she had my best interests in mind during the house-hunting/home-buying process. She was a great pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking to buy or sell a home.
