What Our Clients Are Saying
She thought of all the things you may not think of when you are trying to view a house in a short time period.
“Anne was fabulous! She searched with us for 6 months and boy was it worth the wait. We found our dream home! She advised us to see every house that came on the market so we would know when it was the right one, she was absolutely right. She was always very knowledgeable about the homes, neighborhoods, and answered all our questions. She always inspected around the property to ensure proper drainage, checked basements for water, and thought of all the things you may not think of when you are trying to view a house in a short time period.
We not only gained a house but a new friendship as well. Anne became a great friend and we will miss seeing her on a daily basis. I would highly recommend Anne to anyone moving to the Raleigh area or anyone looking to find their next home.”
— Lauren V.
Anne made what could have been a stressful process pretty fun.
“There are so many wonderful things I could say about working with Anne. I just purchased my first home thanks to her help and expertise, and I can confidently say I could have never done it without her. Being new to the area, and as a single woman, this can be an insane market to even attempt such a thing.
Thankfully, I found Anne, who made me feel supported and cared for throughout the entire process, and made what could have been a stressful process pretty fun. She's also incredibly patient! Anne always made herself available to answer all of my (many) questions, was super responsive, and was the best advocate every step of the way. Her experience of the Raleigh market is unparalleled, so if you're looking for the best realtor to buy property in the area – look no further. Anne is the way to go!”
— Joyce P.
We really appreciated Anne's genuine passion for Raleigh and knowledge of the area…
We had a positive experience working with Anne Godwin during the entire process of buying AND selling our home in this fast-paced market. Anne ensured that all of our needs were met, and diligently worked with us to provide the smoothest transition of buying, selling and moving. Thanks to Anne, we even got to close early on our new-construction home!
In addition to Anne's professional experience in real estate, we really appreciated Anne's genuine passion for Raleigh and knowledge of the ITB/Downtown area as she is a local herself. Thank you again Anne, we couldn't have done it without you!
