Testimonials


It was a great experience working with Heather! My house was under contract in less than 24 hours of her officially listing it and closed less than 30 days later. She is very responsive and knows what’s she’s doing! She helped make the process easy for us since we couldn’t be there in person and living in another part of the country.

- Jared Cook

Heather was very professional and amazing throughout the entire home buying/building process. She has your best interest at hand and her advice to us was a big plus! She did a great job in preparing us for our newly constructed home - from making our selections, dealings with the developer, right through to closing. She definitely knows the area and her knowledge and experience was a tremendous help. I would recommend Heather to everyone I know

- Heather P.

Heather represented us in the extremely complex purchase of a historic home in northeast NC. The house was an estate sale with multiple seller parties and significant legal entanglements. In addition, the house had major structural issues a that made it impossible to purchase under a conventional FHA, VA, or even private mortgage loan, such that we had to pursue the super complicated FHA 203K Home Renovation loan. It took nearly 9 months to achieve a fully ratified contract, then another 4 months of renovation plan development and intensive post-inspection negotiations to close. Heather literally spent hundreds of hours working the multi-phased negotiation, opening the house for inspectors, appraisers, and contractors, and updating our contracts and other paperwork as our closing date slipped again and again (not her fault). We cannot overstate how lucky we are to have met Heather; it's hard to imagine any realtor being more thorough, more dedicated, more responsive, and more effective than she was in helping us buy our dream home. If you're in the market for a realtor I would urge you to give Heather a call - you'll be glad you did!

"If everyone were like Heather, this world would be a better place. She is kind, patient, and always on top of things. There were issues on our end multiple times, that weren't really her problems to solve, but she bent over backwards to assist us in taking care of those issues so we could continue. She was easy to reach whenever we had questions, via text, phone, or email. She even checked in on us while she was out of town to make sure things were going well. She was great to work with, and whatever property needs we have in the future, she will be the first person we call."

- Tony Rippon, Buyer

Heather is awesome to work with. Extremely knowledgeable in her craft and makes the selling/buying process simple. We listed and were under contract in less than a week. Super smooth process and well worth hiring her. Listing had awesome photos as well as perfect description for potential buyers.

- Mike C

Heather was awesome throughout the entire process. She showed us several homes and was not pushy at all. Finally one of the homes we had looked at was reduced in price and she advised we move quickly, which we did. We could not be happier with the home we bought. Heather is a very professional, experienced and resourceful agent. We highly recommend her!

- David C

We have worked with Heather through 2 house purchases and 1 sale, most recently, over the last 4 years and have referred her to COUNTLESS friends for their real estate needs who have also purchased and sold with her. Heather is always right there when you have a question via text or email and is so good about explaining processes and keeping you in the loop anytime there is a next step or hold up. My favorite aspect of Heather is her honesty. She never holds back her honest opinion which is invaluable when buying or selling a property. She has become a friend to us outside of the real estate business and will always be the one we go to for advice or for buying/selling property! Highly recommend Heather Whistler!

- Missy M

We moved to NC from out of state and were very fortunate to have found Heather. She listened to what we wanted in a property and came up with a good list for us to choose. Not only did she show us the types of property we were looking for but she also helped us with all the small details of a relocation move from who to contact for utilities to showing us around the area. Heather is very responsive and goes out of her way to be helpful. She is a true professional and always has your interests in mind. I highly recommend this agent!

- Sally B

My husband and I just moved to E city last summers transfer season and we started to talk with Heather about what we wanted and she was right there with us from the start since we ended up buying a home. My husband and I were very picky as to who we we're gonna use since we had a bad experience with real estate agents in the past but once we found Heather I can honestly say that I would for sure recommend her to the fullest. She gave more than 100% of her time to us and we trusted her knowledge and expertise when it came to what we wanted. She does work with a lot of military families that move to E city so I for sure would recommend to anyone that moves out here to use her.

Heather Whistler and I met back in September when we first began our house search. From our first phone call she listened to everything we were looking for. When there was a house we were interested in she got us in there to check it out the same day or that week. Heather was beyond accommodating especially with the fact I had to do the entire process alone with my 3 kids because of my husbands’ work obligations. She would always hold my kids if they needed it so I could actually focus and look around the house. If I had any questions no matter the time of day she was available to answer them, and we honestly don’t have enough great words to say. We closed on our home in January ‘16 and couldn’t be happier. We are so thankful that we had Heather there for every step. If you are in the Elizabeth City, NC area and need a real estate agent, Heather is your girl!

- Katelyn G, Coastie Wife

We were lucky enough to have found Heather when we were looking to purchase a home. She listened to what our wants/needs were and found us great homes to look at, some multiple times. Fast forward one year, we were transferred and decided to sell, of course we call Heather. She listed our house on a Friday and it was under contract in less than two days! Both experiences were amazing and we would highly recommend Heather for all your buying and selling needs.

Coming from another state and not knowing the local market I lucked into a realtor named Heather Whistler. SHE WAS AWESOME!!! Always available for us and tireless in her efforts to find us the house that fit our wants. The best realtor I have come to know in all the homes I have ever purchased in my lifetime. A total start to finish and beyond realtor. She genuinely loves people and would recommend to everyone."

- Tony H

“Heather Whistler is the absolute best in the business as a realtor for the northeast NC area, including for those in the military moving to/from the region. Her knowledge, effusive personality, honesty, down-to-Earth mindset, and constant responsiveness made our home-buying experience as efficient and easy as possible for us. Heather recommended the neighborhoods she thought we’d enjoy the most and was able to fit us in to multiple showings, regardless of if they were short-notice. Further, her knowledge of numerous points of contact for the entire home buying process helped us in so many ways both during the home inspection and post-closing process (e.g. locksmiths, HVAC, electricians, plumbers, etc….). We cannot recommend her enough, contact Heather now!

- Kalen and Melissa Kenny, March 2020

Heather Whistler deserves the highest marks in every category I can think of. When my wife and I first starting looking at homes Heather showed us a few and we decided it just wasn’t the right time for us to purchase. She was very professional, told us she understood completely and that she hoped we would call her if we decided to start looking again. We found a house we liked a few months later and within 5 minutes of texting her she had a showing scheduled for the next day. We looked at the home and decided we wanted it on a Friday. Heather worked through the weekend, always only a call or text away, to put our offer in on the house. She made sure we knew exactly how to negotiate, what to offer, what to ask for, who could perform appraisals or inspections, and what our next step was. I cannot stress enough how helpful, friendly and approachable she was, at any hour of the day, any day of the week. She would always update us as soon as anything happened, and always made sure we were happy with our decisions and completely understood what was happening and what it meant. She upheld these impeccable standards throughout the purchase of our home. If we ever need a realtor again, for any reason, Heather will be my first and only call.
