When I asked a trusted advisor who to use as the realtor for the sale of our mountain home in Highlands, he said that there was only one choice....Judy Michaud. He said to turn everything over to her, step back, and watch her work her "magic." I did so and his advice proved to be true and accurate! She is the best.

- Erin Phillips

When we began searching for a second home in the Highlands-Cashiers area, we quickly narrowed our search to working only with Mary. She was very patient with us, as we were not 'under the gun', and knew exactly what to show us. It was during a period of limited supply and plentiful buyers, but she found us a house we have been in since. We consider Mary and her family to now also be friends of ours.
"
- Patrick Hutzel
"
John has done a great job for us in our purchase of the Doe Falls Home. He has gone the extra mile to ensure we were happy and our questions answered. I would refer others to John and in the future would personally use him again to buy or sell in this area.

We met Katy when we made a cold call on, I think, a Sunday morning in late June. We stopped in Highlands because a friend said it was a nice town. Katy made arrangements for us to see a house that day. She was so nice! We did not buy that house but Katy stayed in touch. We came back about a month later. She helped us arrange for a place to stay. We saw so many houses - at least 15 in one day. We thought we might want to be on a lake. Then we thought we might like to be in a golf community. As she got to know us she realized we would be happier not far from the town of Highlands. She found the house we bought on Foreman Road. She called it "the surprise" because she had not told us about the house. We walked in and fell in love. She has gone out of her way to help us through inspections, and contracts not to mention helping us get familiar and settled in Highlands! She is a lovely lady! We now consider her a friend.

Rachel was great to work with! She made the buying experience so easy for us. When we couldn’t be at an inspection, she went. When we had any issues, or needed attention, she was right there with answers or actively finding the answers and solutions.
We couldn’t have been happier with our buying experience!

Joy was great to work with. She was friendly, professional and was very patient with us. We did not feel like we were being pressured by Joy during the whole process. We made several trips to North Carolina during this process and Joy was always on time with a smile on her face. I highly recommend her. Not only is she a great real estate agent but during the process she became our friend.
"
- Lawrence Dudney Jr
"
Rachel was incredibly knowledgeable and considerate from start to finish. She is very organized and kept us updated throughout the process which was especially helpful because we do not live locally. She knows a lot about the area and can help with just about anything. But above all, if she doesn't know the answer, she isn't afraid to say so and find out. We found that to be very refreshing.

Mary was amazing. We live 3 hours away and she met us on a weekend to show us several houses. She kept in contact about what was going and and even helped coordinate the fixing of some issues we had at the house. Even after the sale was complete she has helped me answer some small questions about alarms and thermostats etc. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home in the Highlands/ Cashiers area.

Mary Abranyi was an Excellent realtor for our family home. She did whatever she needed to do in order to sell our home. She helped with staging and small repairs to help appeal to more buyers. She studied the market and found where to best market our home. She was always available to talk or answer questions. She is genuine, friendly, factual and so easy to deal with. If any of our family were to want to buy a home in that market again we would definitely want Mary to find us that special home.

My family has worked with Judy for more than twenty years on buying and selling homes in the Highlands/Cashiers area. You won't find a realtor who knows the area better than her.

Our experience with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Meadows Mountain Realty, and specifically with Ms. Teresa Seay, our realtor, was exceptional. Although it took us awhile to purchase a home in the Highlands area, Teresa was always available and willing to assist us in our search. She is very knowledgeable about the Cashiers/Highlands area and expertly guided us through our many visits, tours and showings. We highly recommend Teresa and give her 6 stars!

I can’t say enough good things about Sherman Pope, our realtor who helped us acquire a condo in Sapphire Valley. He was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and so easy to work with. He made this purchase seem almost effortless on the part of me and my husband, and he continues to guide us as we transition into being NC homeowners. Highly recommend!
"
- Katie Morgan
"
Dinah was great to work with, as someone experienced in real estate, or not, she is a wealth of knowledge on the process and on the local market. She went above and beyond in supporting me through my purchase, ultimately finding me an area that wasn't even on my radar, but met all of my wishlist items, and then locating a piece of property that wasn't even on the market through her connections! i would highly recommend Dinah to anyone shopping for property on the Highlands Plateau!

I am an out-of-town real-estate investor who fell in love with Highlands, NC, two years ago. Faye Wurm helped me purchase my second investment property in Highlands. She is the epitome of professionalism and expertise in this most desirable town. Faye was responsive, communicative and detail-oriented, throughout the transaction. Faye is familiar with all the nooks and crannies, that is Highlands; that's exactly what I have been looking for in an agent. She is a well-seasoned real-estate agent who is familiar with the sales market, as well as the rental market in Highlands and the surrounding area. If you're looking for representation that is honest, receptive, accurate and efficient--Faye is the premier realtor and resident in Highlands, NC! Thank you, Faye!

Judy Michaud & Meadows Mountain Realty are beyond wonderful. A rating of 10 is just not enough.
I put my house on the market & placed an offer on a house on the same day in January & closed on the same day on both in May. Judy remained incredibly patient & enthusiastic throughout the entire 4 months. She kept me calm & positive the whole time which was not easy. She was always available & fiercely represented my interest every step of the way. She continues to take care of unfinished details. Everyone at Meadows Mountain Realty showed the same spirit of enthusiasm & assistance as Judy.
I cannot imagine ever using any other realtor. I feel truly blessed to have had her on my side.
Thank you Judy Michaud!

We recommend Rachel for her follow through, diligence and personal interest.

We have purchased several homes, and I can honestly say she is the best agent we have worked with! Thanks Dinah for all your help! If you are looking for an all-star agent, you want Dinah on your team!!

John Muir did an excellent job of selling our property. He was reliable, he worked hard hiking up and down our steep terrain multiple times. The round trips drives to the property were about 45 minutes each and he showed up ready to go! His conversations were professional and thoughtful. My wife and I highly recommend Realtor John Muir with Berkshire Hathaway.
"

I can't say enough about Dinah. Our deal had a lot of ups and downs and pitfalls that we had to walk through. She did more than we expected to keep the deal going and get us through to the finish line. On top of that she is as personable and pleasant as anyone can be. Highly recommend.

Dinah held our hand through the entire process and was invaluable in facilitating all of the moving parts during due diligence and recommending local contractors. As out of state buyers, her deep knowledge of the area made us feel confident that we were making informed decisions. On a personal level, she's an absolute delight!

We have bought and sold several houses over the years but working with Joy Rideout was by far the most rewarding experience we've ever had with a realtor. She never failed to keep us up to date with what was happening during the sales and closing process. She recommended several contractors to help get the property ready to sell and we had a good result from each of her referrals. We are convinced that because of Joy's knowledge and experience, the sales process yielded a result beyond our expectations. We would highly recommend Joy to anyone wanting to buy or sell property in the Highlands area. She is truly "5 Star" in our estimation. Thank you so much, Joy!

If you are looking for a real estate agent in the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau area, look no further and call Mary Abranyi! She is extremely knowledgeable about properties in the area, very thorough and always responsive. She is extremely patient and answers questions and addresses issues in a very straightforward way, but never with any of the 'high-pressure' tactics we have seen from many other agents. She did a great job in helping us market and sell our home recently, and she will certainly be the first one we call when we are looking to buy another property in the area.

Mitzi Rauers is very knowledgeable in the Highlands and Cashiers market. She has worked with us for several years now, finding personal and investment properties for us. We have purchased and listed properties with Mitzi and have had great success. She is constantly sending us new listings and price reductions. She is always willing to preview properties and send us additional photos. We have purchased over a dozen properties throughout the country, and I can honestly say Mitzi has been the best realtor we have worked with.

Sherman has — in about 4 deals we’ve done together— been a steady and knowledgeable source for us in real estate. We have appreciated his experience and advice, and his keen understanding of market forces. We have come to rely on his input, and we’ve always been glad when we listened. We consider him our realtor and friend, which is a bonus!

We have bought and sold 6 houses over the years and I must say, working with Joy was by far the best realtor relationship we have experienced. She continuously kept us aware of how things were progressing and her marketing advice was invaluable. We needed some work done to get the house ready to market and her contractor recommendations were outstanding. We would highly recommend Joy Rideout to anyone buying or selling property in the Highlands area. Without her experience and expertise, I doubt we would have had such a positive outcome. Thanks Joy!

Absolutely recommend her!
