What clients are saying

If you want a professional real estate agent to get the job done, list with Chuck Self. His integrity and level of work ethic are beyond any expectation you may have. Our experience with Chuck proved to be easy and pain-free. He sold our house DAYS after we listed with him. After interviewing other agents, we chose Chuck because we felt like he would work hard to get our property sold...he did just that and also became a dear friend in the process. If we purchase another property in the Cashiers area, it will be with Chuck as our agent as we feel very comfortable with him at the helm. He will surpass all of your expectations as he is a man of character, wisdom and simply someone you will enjoy being with.

My wife and I have moved many times in the last 30 years and dealt with a lot of agents. We have now dealt with Ray on many transactions and believe strongly that he is by far the best. His integrity, professionalism, and knowledge of the mountain market are unparalleled. We are glad we found him and more so appreciate his warm smile and good nature. He is the very best. If you are looking for a superior real estate agent in the mountains... he’s your guy.

We recently bought our lovely mountain home in Sapphire, NC. We were very fortunate to have Bambi Famous Kaine guide us through the entire journey. She is extremely professional, knowledgeable and truly passionate about what she does...and Bambi loves what she does...Real Estate! Even though Bambi is extremely successful and very much in demand, she made us feel as if we were her only clients. Bambi works tirelessly in all aspects of the buying process. She excels at identifying her clients' needs, showing the properties with excitement and zest! After choosing the one, Bambi went above and beyond sharing her vast list of service contacts to not only streamline the closing process but to set us up with good, reliable resources to help us run Whisper Wood Lodge, our mountain home, from Florida. On top of all of this, she was fun to be with and we look forward to growing our friendship. Anyone lucky enough to find the beautiful Sapphire and Cashiers area, make sure you seek out Bambi Famous Kaine! Bambi, you are the BEST!

There are real estate agents, and then there is Jochen Lucke. From the beginning of the search process until completion of our purchase, I have never worked with a realtor so committed to finding a home that fit our needs. His knowledge of the area allowed us to pinpoint specific homes to review, making our time with him much more efficient and comprehensive. He coordinated home inspections and all necessary steps during the diligence process, and even after we closed on our home purchase, Jochen was still readily available to answer any and all questions about things like power companies, preferred internet service providers and the like to streamline our move into the home. I could not be more satisfied with his representation of us, and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to find their perfect home.

My husband and I had a very stress free experience working with Jochen and Silver Creek while selling our mountain house. He is the ultimate professional. He always had a positive attitude and was ever available to answer my “way too many” questions. Jochen is a tireless Realtor.

Dan really went the extra mile to keep our land deal moving forward. As it was our first land purchase coupled with the fact that we are out of state buyers Dan’s expertise and knowledge throughout the process helped immensely. This was a very lengthy and complicated closing and my wife and I are very grateful for Dan’s perseverance and insight, without which this deal probably wouldn’t have happened. I would absolutely use him again.

Dan and Kathryn just sold our house on Lake Glenville and did an excellent job. They knew the local marketplace, were very responsive and went the extra mile. Our house was older so it needed several updates and Dan was able to work through this process with everyone successfully.

I recently purchased a property on the east side of Lake Glenville and could not of closed the deal without the help of Dan. I live out of state which made it difficult for me to meet with inspectors, contractors, etc. Dan stepped in and lined up meetings, met numerous contractors at the property, suggested certain things be inspected that I would not have thought of, etc... He provided info for many of his contacts to help with different projects. I felt that Dan really put our interest above everything else and wanted to ensure that we were comfortable with the purchase. Thanks Dan!

Dan is one of the very best realtors that we have ever had the pleasure of working with. His knowledge of the local market is current and accurate. His advice during the process was invaluable. He has a strong work ethic and consistently went beyond our expectations of service. He is an excellent communicator, always timely and on point. Our entire experience with Dan was seamless. He is a true professional.

Dan originally sold us the house. He is professional, honest, and reliable and works very hard for his clients. We are very satisfied with his service and expertise. We would definitely use him again.
