We wanted to thank you for your help selling our land and finding our beach house. We love it! The location is great. Thanks for making our experience with buying a second home so enjoyable and smooth.
Sincerely,

Once we had property for sale in Manteo and he brought a buyer. The next he, acting as our agent, found and sold us a property in Duck. The last transaction was he sold our condo in Duck. He always exceeds our expectations. He is a lovely man to do business with and we will continue to call on him for our OBX needs. We have already recommended him to a friend for the sale of her condo.
Sincerely, Tom & JoAnne Bell"

2011 Testimonial: Our friends live in the Village year round and recommended Karen DelVacchio, who they knew and trusted. We spoke with her, told her what we wanted and she gave us lots of information to review. She told us to get pre-approved and to look in to several insurance companies, settlement companies. It gave us a better understanding of beach rental and ownership. She kept us up on all the listing and comps. Doing what Karen said saved us so much leg work and stress. Having all our loan work approved before helped us get a great deal. When we came back down we knew what homes we wanted to see. Karen had a few more she thought we should see, one of which was the one we purchased. I referred others friends to her who bought and feel she really knows what she is doing. --Dani Boyd, Gaithersburg, MD

Sarah Spencer hails originally from Richmond, Virginia. While attending college at James Madison University, she spent summers on the Outer Banks. Longing for the beach, she and her husband returned for good in 1997. Sarah's fondness of real estate and home building started at an early age. Her father was a custom builder back in her hometown of Richmond. Sarah can remember tagging along on walk-throughs and helping with punch lists since the age of nine.
Over the past 13 years, Sarah has distinguished herself as sales leader on the Northern Outer Banks. Since 2006, Sarah sold more property in Corolla than any other agent and has been in the top 1% of all sales agents in Duck and Corolla. :
In response to recent market challenges, Sarah has become an expert in short sale transactions. In fact, in the past two years, she's sold more homes through the short sale process in Duck and Corolla than any other agent!

2011 Testimonial:
"Sarah, you're the best real estate agent by far I've ever had to pleasure of working with. From the beginning, your professionalism, guidance, advice, contacts, knowledge of the game, and ability to read my mind made my house hunting effortless and fun. Even now, in the post-sales phase, you are a great help. You made Kathy and I feel like family and we feel like through your being on our side that we got more house than we could have expected. We can't wait to make our changes to our new house and spend time in Corolla. Thanks a million!!" ~ -R. Mihalik
"Sarah Spencer did an outstanding job end-to-end. Best experience ever with a real estate professional!" ~ R. Peloso
"Last spring, we purchased a 2nd home in Corolla, NC (Outer Banks area) with the help of Sarah. Our goal was to utilize this home as an investment for rental income. The home is located, 2 ½ hours away from our permanent residence and therefore created some unique challenges in the purchasing process. Sarah was able to help us overcome all of these challenges and made us feel comfortable and confident with our purchase. Sarah consistently delivered exceptional customer service by going above and beyond through out the entire process. For example, Sarah, on her own accord, went through the house and created a "punch list" of items that she recommended completing prior to placing the house on the rental market. This list enabled us to communicate to contractors remotely about what needed to be completed. We were very pleased with Sarah's exceptional customer service and we highly recommend using Sarah." ~ Short Sale Buyer, Corolla

"Thank you Matt Myatt for being the best real estate agent ever ! You totally deserve Sales Agent of the Year! I am forever grateful!" ~ Lynn C.
"Working with Matt was a wonderful experience. After years of dreaming about owning a beach house Matt helped those dreams become a reality. During an initial conversation Matt asked several questions about what we were looking for in a home. He used that information to select several properties he thought we should see. We had several conversations about the houses and met with him the following weekend. He took us to see several properties and we ended up writing a contract, and purchasing, the first one Matt had suggested.
We now consider Matt a friend and would highly recommend him to any potential buyer." ~ James & Claire H.
"We were very pleased with our experience with Matt. I had originally contacted him via email and we continued to correspond via email for a few months before we actually traveled to the OBX to view properties. He was always very prompt and complete in his responses and was very knowledgeable of the area. I was particularly impressed that he spent so much time with someone he never met and didn't even know was serious about buying property or not. He made an effort to work around our schedules to show properties and was with us every step of the way during the negotiation and closing process. He was invaluable to us during the closing process assuring we had all the proper inspections taken care of and personally went to check on the house after the hurricane. Post-closing, Matt has continued to be a valuable resource which has been great for us since we are new to the area and don't know anyone else in the OBX. I would highly recommend Matt to anyone looking for a realtor in the OBX." ~ Alan & Sue K.

"Dear Mr. Oakes,
We would like to write you a letter regarding Mr. John Register, our real estate agent for the purchase of two houses on the Outer Banks. We purchased these houses one on the sound side and one on the ocean side. The purchases occurred in 2009 and 2010. One house was a short sale and the other was in foreclosure making the purchase process challenging to say the least. Throughout the entire time, John was helpful, knowledgeable, honest, kind, with good humor and understanding. The guidance and help that Mr. Register provided us went way beyond what was required and encompassed not only the search and purchase phase of the investment, but also help and advice following the closing and the setting up of the property for rental.
When we searched for houses, John was very well prepared, informative and open about the pluses and faults of the different properties.
Even now, after the houses have been bought we are still in constant contact with John, asking him for advice and help. He is just as timely, conscientious and through with his responses after the sale as he was prior to the sale.
To say that we would use John in future real-estate purchases or recommend him to our friends who are looking for property is an understatement. He is not only our agent but has also become our go to guy and friend.
Mr. John Register is what an honest reliable friendly and professional real estate agent should be. We are very fortunate to have found him and we believe you are very fortunate to have him working in your organization."
Respectfully, The Feldman Family
"When my husband and I decided this past January to sell our home on the Outer Banks and relocate out of state, we knew the chips were stacked against us so to speak. Having bought our fisrt home in the real estate boom a few years ago, we knew that selling our home and moving our three children would take a-lot of hard work and thinking outside the box and we wanted an sales agent that would see past the obstacles and get the job done.
In my first phone converstation with John I told him we were willing to be creative and do whatever it took to sell our house. He made it very clear that he was looking out for our best interest and he wanted to make sure that we came out of the deal without losing everything that we had worked so hard for. However, with the plunging real estate values at the time, it seemed as though nothing short of a miracle would put a "SOLD" sign on our house.
Through a series of conversations with our lender, John was able to negotiate a "short sale " on our home and close the deal. Despite the articles that I had read that such a deal was drawn out and difficult, we closed right on time with no hassle. Not only were we thrilled with the outcome, but our closing attorney actaully commented that we were very lucky to have the reached the deal through such an aggressive realtor.
We love the Outer Banks, we miss the sand, and our children proudly tell everyone in our new town that they are "from the beach" In my conversation with John on the day of closing, I told him to call me if he ever came across a great deal on a little vacation home there. He is the only agent we would dream of working with on the beach. Not only do we know a great realtor on the Outer Banks, but we now have a great new friend." ~ Jill, Jimmy, Jacob, Hailey & Gray Midgett
" John sold my sister's home after she had been through quite a few other real estate offices. She had her home on the market for approximately 5 years with other Realtors. John was able to raise the price and have the home under contract in less than a month. The closing went smoothly and on time.
"When I decided to sell my home, John was able to list my home fairly and I was very happy with the selling price of my home. John took the time to show me quite a few houses, until I decided which one to purchase. I have now been in my new home for 11/2 years and my children and I are very happy." ~ Barbara Teague
"John is very knowledgeable about the area and an expert in real estate. I would highly recommend his services and do when asked by someone. He truly helped my transaction to closing without any incidents which is hard considering the market and lending restrictions currently being used." ~ Paul Farr
"I was very satisfied with Mr. Register handling the listing and sale of my property. He was very thorough in all aspects of the contract which resulted in a smooth and timely closing. I would recommend and use Mr. Register's services in future Real Estate business." ~ Mrs. Virginia S. Phillips
"To Whom It May Concern:
This is a letter of recommendation for John Register. We met John through a contact on the internet. He was extremely helpful and knowledgeable regarding the Outer Banks real estate market - both properties and houses. He spent numerous hours researching for us as well as spending time showing us houses during off hours. Within one weekend, we found the property and builder for our vacation home.
John continued to be of great support and assistance to us. He worked with us to find a lawyer and bank to handle the closing and finances. He closely monitored the progress of our loan paperwork and contract with the builder. He was available to us anytime, day or evening. He provided pictures of our property, and even checked on it during hurricane Isabel.
We continue to keep in touch and get together when we are in the Outer Banks. I would highly recommend John Register to anyone. He treated us like we were his only customer, and provided the excellent service you expect when purchasing a home." Sincerely,
Bernie Gibson
