"Stephen Keith is everything you want in a realtor, responsive and proactive before, during, and after the purchase.  And in a competitive market, that's the edge that'll help you land the right home at the right price. He often lined up showing within hours of new homes hitting the market. In the house I bought, he connected me to the HOA head to answer my questions and because I live remote, he would help with appointments I couldn't make. If you're looking for a realtor that's willing to go the extra mile, then Stephen's the one for you."

"Could not have been more impressed with Bishop Glover from Boone Realty! She was extremely hard working and helped guide us through each step of the home buying process. You can tell she genuinely cares about her clients. Great experience!"

"We lucked out finding Mark Mashburn as a realtor! He was so patient and educated us on the nuances of mountain realty, as we live a few hours away. We found a true business partner who was balanced in helping us get what we wanted while finding a good investment. We now have a perfect cabin on the river that we will enjoy for years to come! Thank you Mark!!"

"We most highly recommend Scott Warren of Boone Realty. Scott is a veteran realtor and specializes in Boone and surrounding area which is a critical distinction for selling or buying property in the area. I've purchased/sold 4 homes across the country and Boone has unique factors that I’ve never encountered in any other town. My husband and I inherited a home in Boone NC which we rented out for 14 years. We live in California and haven't seen the place since. We started talking to Scott over a year ago as he guided us through the various considerations to get the house sold in this ever-changing market. Scott checked out the house and provided recommendations on every aspect of the sale including the “do’s” and “don'ts” on improvements to the house, time of sale (tricky with a rental), and even suggested we raise the rent before the next cycle (new tenants, new lease) as it was undermarket price. We immediately felt at ease. As we progressed through the process, Scott was super responsive, assisted with every request, and always made us feel like we were treasured clients even though our house was far from "high-end". As we neared the time for selling, the pace picked up. Scott's expertise and experience were invaluable as we encountered various "local" quirks, one being that we had a shared road with multiple neighbors with no shared maintenance contract. He handled every obstacle with ease. We closed on the sale much faster than we expected and within our expected price range. We feel certain had it not been for Scott, we would have had a very different (negative) outcome. As we got to know Scott (virtually), it was clear he's noble, honorable, and cares greatly for friends, clients, and community. We're thrilled we found him. It was an honor to do business with him."

"Scott was the listing agent for a property we were looking at, but decided not to purchase. However, Scott found us a fabulous property that meet all our wish list items. Scott helped us negotiate a great price and close in a very short time frame, which was important to us. Scott was the most responsive agent we have ever worked with, not pushy, just responsive on our time frame. We do not live in the area, but Scott was extremely helpful scheduling home inspection, pest inspection, etc, that worked for our needs. We have another property in Boone that we are going to sell, and without hesitation we are using Scott to sell that home. If you want a honest, hardworking, down to earth, responsive agent, with great local knowledge, look no further than Scott."

"Hi Roxanne,

---

"Scott represented us in selling our home and we were very pleased with our choice. He has a thorough knowledge of the Boone area real estate market and gave us sound advice in the process of listing and negotiating. He was very responsive throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!"

Angel & Todd

---

"This isn’t our first rodeo—we’ve bought and sold a number of homes and investment properties and have worked with a variety of RE agents. By far, Scott Warren is the most knowledgeable and responsive agent we’ve worked with. Not only did Scott help us list and sell, but he guided us thru a purchase. He didn’t bat an eye at last minute requests to see properties, he learned our preferences and we trusted him to view homes on our behalf, as we shopped from out of state. Scott didn’t complain when we asked to root around crawl spaces and dig down to confirm locations of septic and gas tanks! He went above and beyond, and he’ll be our go-to guy when we look for another home. It’s nice to come away from a real estate transaction with an agent who’s now a friend."

"Scott/Boone Realty helped relocate our family with two small children back to the high country. They know their stuff, and always made themselves available for questions. Went the extra mile multiple times to make sure we got the house we wanted. Has great connections throughout the community, which is helpful."

Bradley & Emily

"Scott is exceptional to work with. We were listing our 2nd home in Todd, NC and with us being located in Charlotte, NC, I knew I had to have someone I could trust and count on. Scott met that criteria and more! He was always prompt in getting back to me with any questions we had and is extremely knowledgeable with Todd, NC and the surrounding area. He was able to market our unique property and we were under contract in 1 week of listing. We closed in 30 days. I would highly recommend Scott Warren and Boone Realty for their excellent customer service!"

Jennifer

"Scott couldn't have been better to work with. He was exceptionally professional, efficient, and on top of things from the beginning to the end of the purchase process. He is also very personable and thoughtful. I recommend him without reservation."

Kathy & David

---

"Scott Warren is professional, responsive, and knowledgeable. While those characteristics are great, what sets Scott apart from others is that he is honest, trustworthy and you can depend on him to do what he says he’ll do."

Cyndy & Bruce

---

"We had an excellent experience using Scott as our listing agent. He is knowledgeable and forthright, easy to work with and responsive. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again, buying or selling."

Ann & Mark

"As a single, first-time home buyer I greatly appreciated Justin's assistance. He was patient and thorough in answering all my questions, and never made me feel any pressure when making decisions throughout the process. He went above and beyond in advocating for me with sellers and his building sciences knowledge was very helpful in understanding the condition of properties I was viewing. He's also just a really nice guy. Would definitely use Justin again!"

Audrey

"Scott Warren is very knowledgeable, honest, detail focused, and fair. I would highly recommend Scott for any real estate transaction/relationship. I have been on both sides of many real estate transactions and have dealt with many excellent agents over the years. I rate Scott among the very best.

Wahoo! Mad negotiating skillz!!!

"Scott was truly the best Realtor we have ever come across (and we are in our 60's!). He does his homework and explains his data to you. He understands the local market. He is a straight shooter and will tell you what needs to be done to get your house sold. He referred us to a superb jack-of-all-trades who shepherded us through a major repair project and a whole lot of smaller projects. He is a master negotiator. And best of all, he gets back to you quickly when you contact him with a question or concern. Due to my husband's job situation, nearly all the work of repairing/renovating and listing our out-of-state house fell to me, and Scott was invaluable. He patiently dealt with my stress and questions. The proof is in the pudding - we had a cash offer 5 days after our house was listed in a difficult market. I recommend Scott wholeheartedly."

"Justin exceeded our expectations. He had a lot of patience showing us homes and zeroing into what we needed as seasoned buyers. He then was invaluable in following up inspections and negotiating the purchase price. We would easily choose him again on the future"

David

"Scott was our buyer's agent when we purchased a home in Todd, NC. He is responsive and easy to work with, and he is great at tactfully and effectively negotiating with sellers. We appreciated his help coordinating inspections, insurance, etc. to ensure a smooth, on-time closing."

Amy Sue Love

"I worked with Justin to buy a home from out of town and I was delighted with his experience, knowledge, and assistance through the process. He truly went above and beyond what I ever could have expected. There is not enough I can say about my experience with Justin. This is not the first home I've purchased, but this is by far and away the most positive experience I've had buying a home and all of it happened as a result of working with Justin. I could not have felt safer and more protected based on his detailed and painstaking work finding out everything there was to know about my new home. I would recommend Justin to anyone and know they will be well cared for. I know this description may sound over the top, but Justin's support deserves this kind of recommendation."

"Scott came highly recommended to me by a friend and I was not disappointed. He helped me list and sell my home and then helped me find the perfect new place. Thanks Scott!"

"Justin cares about his clients and getting them the best information and the best deal on property. One specific example involved our consideration of a house with an oil fired heating system. Justin suggested testing the ground around the oil tank to make sure it was not leaking. We would have never thought to do that on our own. It turned out that the tank was indeed leaking and had been for quite a while. It would have cost us thousands down the road. We were grateful to Justin for helping us avoid this."

"Scott was indispensable through the entire process of selling my home in Foscoe. He helped me prepare the property by suggesting improvements that would be important to buyers and he provided names of trustworthy resources in the area...from painters and handymen to window replacement! When it came time to list he created a thorough listing with lots of pictures and got it active immediately. He gave very honest and conscientious pricing and negotiation advice. My house sold in less than a week with multiple offers. Scott's communication during the process of the sale, due diligence, and eventual closing was flawless. I can't thank Scott enough for all his help and for a great experience! "

Karen Kendall

"Scott did an outstanding job in selling our families home. Even after a few complications arose, he continually communicated and advised us about the options, ultimately leading to a successful sale of the home in record time for a fair amount. Highly recommended. "

Tom & Silvia Summers

"My husband and I worked with Scott to buy some real estate and the process couldn't have gone better. Scott is honest, hard working, and very knowledgeable about the area. We highly recommend him! "

Lora & Derek Eggers

"Scott Warren is hands down the best Realtor I have every worked with. I am a professional builder and picked Scott out of a long list of agents to sell my personal home. His market knowledge on pricing is spot on. He sold my house in one day! This was the first time I had ever had this to happen, and I have sold a lot of houses. This happened in part to Scott recommending the best market sale price for the home, which I agreed with, and then sticking with that price. It turns out that I got my asking price and a fast sell. Scott has a great personality and a confident professional attitude that has made him my first choice as a Realtor in the High Country."

"Scott was our agent for the purchase in 2015 of a vacation home in W. Jefferson. He's incredibly knowledgeable about real estate in the High Country and from start to finish, we felt very secure having Scott as our agent. He quickly responded to and answered all our questions and his advice was spot on. All that and he's a very nice guy! Highly recommend Scott. Any High Country real estate activity we do in the future will absolutely involve Scott as our agent. "

Jeff & Leah Hill

"If you want a stress-free sale or purchase of a house contact Scott Warren! From the first point of contact, Scott had a plan that couldn't miss. Scott explained plainly and understandably all the little details of what to expect."

Jaime Duffy

"Scott was extremely knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire process. Very down to Earth approach but also a hard worker who helped guide us through the process."

Aaron & Susu Westphal

---

"Scott did an amazing job helping us find our dream house!! We changed houses mid-process, and he helped us keep our original closing date. He also helped us get a great deal in Blowing Rock!! I would absolutely recommend Scott to anyone looking for a new home. He brings a great attitude and a contractor's eye to every house, giving you a great perspective on the home. "

Joe & Kate Candillo

---

"He is approachable, honest and of the highest integrity. He responded quickly to all of our questions, and kept us fully informed throughout the purchasing process. I would use him again and would recommend him to anyone."

Kathy and Bill Ligon

"Scott helped us find and buy a vacation home in the mountains. In the beginning, we weren't quite sure where or what exactly we were looking for, probably a realtor's worst nightmare. Yet Scott was extremely good--and perseverant--at suggesting a broad range of homes in the area. Scott's background in construction and architecture, along with his wealth of local knowledge, was critical in helping us understand and navigate the many choices we had. After showing us 8 or 9 houses, we finally had a good idea of what we wanted. After our offer was accepted, Scott was diligent in setting up the necessary inspections and surveys. We had lots of questions and Scott was diligent and timely with the responses. We had an unexpected hiccup with the sellers, and Scott took charge with urgency and professionalism to keep the sale on track. Since the sale closed, Scott has continued to keep in touch, offering whatever help we need. I'd highly recommend Scott with absolutely no reservations. "

David and Sheila

"Scott is very knowledgable about home building and pointed out things, both positive and negative, in homes we looked at that we otherwise would not have noticed. He has an appreciation for the region and a commitment to environmentally friendly features that you don’t find in many realtors. We looked at quite a few homes in a fairly broad geographical area and Scott was always helpful and patient with us! He has also been extremely helpful in connecting us with local resources needed for our new home. Scott has a friendly, professional demeanor and I highly recommend him for your real estate needs."

Beth & Rob Fiske

---

"I recommend Scott without hesitation. His knowledge of the local community proved invaliable throughout the entire process of buying my home. Not only was he attentive, prompt and professional, but he took his time getting to know me and my families' needs which ultimately saved me time and energy during the buying process. Scott is laid back and easygoing. He never rushed me or made me feel like an inconvenience. I'm certain he genuinely cared about finding me the right property. Also, being a longtime resident of Boone, he has many resources to help with each of the incidental, unforseable hiccups that come along with a new home. I chose Scott Warren as my realtor, but he turned out to be a good friend too. "

Robert Leon

---

"Scott is helpful and has a warm and sincere personality. He was always prompt when responding to questions or requests by email. Scott is our go-to realtor for any purchases or sales we may make in the future and I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Boone area."

Jeff & Leah Hill

---

"Scott was fantastic to work with! We really appreciated his excellent communication skills, and found him easy to get in touch with both electronically and over the phone. We had a tough close on our house, and he was there to reassure us every step of the way. He really knows the area well, and was fantastic about giving us options we may not have otherwise noticed. If we ever move, buy, or sell, we will definitely work with Scott."

---

"Scott went above and beyond researching homes that met our requests and that were in our price range. Once we decided on a home, Scott was great in handling the negotiation between ourselves and the buyer. He dug up all the paperwork we requested and had our well water tested for us. Would definitely recommend him!"

Heather & Will Mitchell

"Scott Warren is one of the best realtors I have worked with. He is extremely knowledgeable of the area. He listened to our requests and fulfilled them. We purchased a home through him and also sold a home through him. I highly recommend Scottfor your real estate needs in the high country of NC. "

Ellen & Bill Finch

"Great to work with. Went above and beyond. Scott checked on the condo on a regular basis. Made sure the water was turned off to prevent the pipes from freezing. The adds were great. I highly recommend Scott. "

 "Scott Warren was very helpful when we purchased a second home in Boone area of North Carolina. He listened to our needs and wants. It was obvious from the very beginning Scott was there for us , not just another sold property. Scott continued after the sale his work with us, responding to most simple of questions like what the weather in Boone will be for the coming week! We highly recommend Scott Warren for whatever your Real Estate Needs. Solid work ethic, good family values, someone you can trust!"

"Scott-

Kyle and I can't thank you enough for everything you did to help us during the recent purchase of our house in downtown Boone. As first-time home buyers we did not know what to expect but you guided us through the process and answered all of our questions (no matter what time we texted them to you!). Your experience in building and construction was especially helpful during the home inspection on our older home. One of the most frustrating parts for us was dealing with the lender and the waiting game we played, but you kept in contact with them and were able to keep us informed as things progressed. We couldn't be happier with our first house and thank you for all of your hard work helping us get it. "

Leah & Kyle

 "Scott's diligence in checking the market daily paid off when he quickly spotted a home that had been significantly reduced in price.  He enabled me to set up a showing and make an offer in less than a week before some other buyers even realized the home had been reduced.

 With the new lending restrictions the loan process can be a daunting one.  Scott continued to work hard to help me find the right loan agency and reassure the sellers as the weeks of paperwork droned on.

 Scott Warren's local knowledge, service connections, organization skills, and communication skills make him the best Real Estate Agent I have ever worked with.  I give him my highest recommendation without hesitation. "

 Edgar Peck

"As first time home buyers, new residents, and a family of four we were overwhelmed with finding our perfect home. Scott went above and beyond in helping to meet our needs, educate us on Boone market trends and provided us with all the tools necessary to find our dream home. We would without question recommend Scott to any future Home Buyer!"

 Jeff and Angela Bilyk

"Scott,

You were a pleasure to work with…we thank you so much for guiding us to our eventual home purchase in Blowing Rock. Our only problem since buying is not being able to get up in the mountains enough!

Anyone I hear about who is looking in the area, I send to you…thanks again."

Bill Wiseman

"Scott Warren has been working with us for about three years now trying to find the perfect retirement place for us.  He has shown us unlimited amounts of energy and diligence in that pursuit.  He is trustworthy and exhibits the highest level of ethics of any realtor we have known.  He is very knowledgeable of the real estate market, financing, and most importantly to us, house construction.  He is extremely capable and proactive in discussing construction issues if and when they arise.  We would highly recommend Scott to anyone!"

"My husband and I were convinced after spending time in the Boone area, that this is where we wanted to be.  Being from So. Fla at the time, this was a challenge.  I spoke with several Realtors in the area, not getting a "good vibe" from our chats.  I reluctantly kept trying until I by chance spoke with Scott, from Coldwell Banker.  I immediately felt he knew what he was talking about, not just home selling wise, but area history, pros and cons of certain regions, and the challenges certain properties would have for wanna-be "mountain folks" like us.   Armed with a big wish list, not so big budget, Scott found us the perfect first cabin, along with names and numbers for all the services we may need.  Well, he did such a good job we have since bought two other properties and sold one all within the following couple of years.   We have also, become friends...he's just a knowledgeable, hard working guy who will work until he finds what you need."

Thanks Scott
