About

Today, natives to Asheville have come from far and wide. The culture and mountains have a draw hard to resist. My family transplanted here in 1981 from the Midwest, but before that, California and Canada. Asheville quickly became home. 

I attended Asheville Christian Academy all 13 years, but my love for travel started at a young age. I have lived and visited all over the world. I feel this gives me great perspective of and appreciation for our beautiful Appalachian Mountains and diverse town of Asheville. 

I met my husband while working for the First Lady of Uganda after graduation at Covenant College in Lookout Mtn., GA. I was married there on the banks of Lake Victoria, and our first son was born in Uganda. 

We moved back to the states after 9-11 and bought a cute home in downtown Black Mountain.  We then started working at the Black Mountain Home for Children and continue to serve, now in our 20th year. Our youngest son, who is heading off to college this year, was born here. 

Over the years, my husband and I have fixed up homes to sell and had long- and short-term rentals. I have always had a love for architecture and design and, above all, for our ideal locations in these beautiful mountains. 

I have loved doing real estate, because it is where all my loves come together. I love serving clients and getting to know them, and I love finding the perfect home, location, and style to suit their exact needs. My familiarity with the area goes beyond geographical. I love to bring together experts in each field to bring about a smooth closing. My continued role as a residential counselor, or commonly called “House Parent,” has given me years of experience and training on how to understand, love, and help people where they are. This is also integral in the real estate process.

I have also always had a love for the law. Before God changed the course of my future, I was headed to law school after college. Real estate has refreshed this love and provided lots to learn.   

I always want to thank Keller Williams for giving me a solid foundation on the transactional side of real estate. But you will love my new team at Carolina Life Properties, who love what they do and work together to bring about successful transactions for buyers and sellers.

What Clients Are Saying

Rebecca was proactive to get my house sold quickly and as savvy as I could have hoped for. 

Jeff Poster

Rebecca worked hard to find the right propety and did a great job helping us wiht the due dilligent process. We highly recommend Rebecca!

We have worked with many realtors over the course of five homes. Rebecca exhibits exactly what we seek from a realtor and was one of our favorites to work with. She is tenacious, logical, reasonable, informed, an advocate for her clients, not timid, an excellent communicator, certainly not apathetic, passionate about her place (WNC), and knows her place (WNC). In the end we felt like we worked with someone who did exactly what they needed to do and earned their commission (which I can't always say from our experiences). We highly recommend Rebecca if you seek a masterful realtor.

Rebecca is highly competent and a real JOY to work with! Not only did she facilitate the entire repair after a large tree punctured 9 holes in the roof of our house we… had under contract; she got our asking price in spite of the set back! She is well connected! We were thrilled!

Rebecca helped us prepare and sell our home and also helped us find another home within a short period of time during the pandemic! She did a terrific job… negotiating the best price for us on both ends and was very professional along the way. We highly recommend Rebecca for your real estate needs.

Rebecca is innovative and intuitive... couldn’t ask for more in an agent if you want results that exceed your expectations and put a smile on your face.

Carol Wolf

 

Rebecca came into my life as my agent at exactly the right moment to lead me to a great new home in an amazing location! With Rebecca at the helm, I was under contract within 6 days after she showed me the house! She is very dedicated, sincere, and helpful with every step of the home-buying process. She kept it snappy and happy all the way through it as well. That means a lot to me, because I do not enjoy red tape! But everything went quickly and smoothly because she is a true pro and cares about her clients and their happiness. You should absolutely contact Rebecca when you need a realtor!
