What clients are saying

We listed our home with Silver Creek Real Estate Group primarily due to its fine reputation and having previously met its President and Owner Jochen Lucke. We received contracts immediately. When we were experiencing closing problems Jochen stepped in behind the scenes and reached out to both the regional and state mortgage broker managers for assistance. This was a huge undertaking and one that could be accomplished by very few. Jochen is a remarkably influential person and his company, Silver Creek Real Estate Group, is tops in the real estate field.

We recently purchased a home in Lake Toxaway and could not be happier with the support and facilitation that Chuck and Riva provided. We were unfamiliar with the area and Chuck did a great job educating us on all the surrounding communities as well as some of the differences in buying real estate in NC. He is very personable and professional as well as responsive - which is critical in the real estate industry! Looking forward to enjoying our new home!

Julia Banner helped us sell some land in Lake Toxaway and it was a great experience. The pictures that were taken were breathtaking! She was able to get us an extremely good offer in very little time and the closing was pretty smooth (it all happened during the holidays). If we ever have any land in her area again, she will be the person I will call! Thank you, Julia!

Dan did a great job. He's very responsive, knows the market well, and knows people well. He's an experienced agent. This is the second time we've worked with him, and when we were ready to sell we he was the only agent bothered to call.

Bambi Famous Kaine was very helpful to my sister and I as we sold a lot in Sims Valley in NC that we inherited from my dad. Bambi used many of the resources in her office and her knowledge of the area to sell our lot. She was very attentive and stuck with us until our property sold. I would highly recommend her.

My husband and I had been looking for a home in NC for quite some time. We reached out to Debby Hall as she was a listing agent on a home that interested us. We liked her so much that we decided to use her as we continued our search for the perfect one. She worked with us through thick and thin, all while catering to our specific interests. 

She recommended a home that was not on our radar and we fell in love with it. She catered to what we wanted but also encouraged us to explore something we hadn't considered before.  

Now that she had found us the perfect home, we stumbled upon a few roadblocks after inspection. Debby and the Silver Creek team took the reigns and navigated us through the intricacies of our unique purchasing experience. 

Without them, we would have been lost and could have potentially lost the deal. We are grateful for the support and, ultimately, the beautiful home we secured. 

We had a great experience with Bambi. She is smart, knowledgeable, and was incredibly responsive. Plus, she had great resources available for all needed repairs and for our move.

Bambi Famous Kaine recently sold my home. From the initial meeting through the closing, I found her to be attentive, honest, detail-oriented, and knowledgeable. It was evident she understands the Sapphire area market and how best to show your home. She is also upbeat and a pleasure to do business with. I highly recommend Bambi and her team if you are looking for a professional to sell your home.

Jochen is in a league all of his own! We have dealt with quite a few Brokers over the years — buying and selling. Some brokers become friends; some friends become brokers. But Jochen stands out in his amazing skills, talent, connections, and sheer power of personality. Attentive, discrete, highly sophisticated, incredibly intuitive, calm, cool, and collected. Jochen inspires confidence and delivers quick results. He doesn’t sweat the small stuff and makes sure you don’t either. He immediately inspires trust and confidence and then goes above your highest expectations. Peerless!

Selling a home is never easy — especially in unexpected circumstances. Jochen not only sold our house within a week, he made the entire process — from listing to closing — totally smooth, easy and, most importantly, stress-free. We couldn’t be more appreciative, grateful and satisfied. End to end, it was a superb, painless experience. Jochen even helped and guided us in the purchase of our new home in another state, stepping in and filling in the gaps the local agents left. Truly above and beyond the call of duty!

Thank you, Jochen! You absolutely rock! YOU ARE THE KING OF ROCK! Thank you Izaak for the awesome photos and Delaney for the great write up. Most of all, thank you, Jochen for your professionalism, friendship, and genuine care. We’ll recommend you wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a property in the glorious North Carolina Mountains.
