    Sold a Townhouse home in 2013 for approximately $225K in Cary, NC.
    Our daughter and son-in-law sold their house using a Listing-only service and the financial advantage was obvious, but it did leave them with a lot of the follow up work to do for themselves. When subsequently we decided to move, we decided we would need a little more guidance than they did . We first of all approached a local realtor who offered a low fee / full service but were put off by their initial tardiness. After a week we had not made contact with a real person, and we felt that if that was the standard of their service before we signed up, what could we expect subsequently. We therefore searched the web and came across Don Anthony Realty’s site which offered the same service but at a still lower fee. Somewhat skeptically we telephoned and spoke to Don Anthony himself who quickly summarized the scheme and apologized because he was only able to get an agent to meet with us in two days’ time. Dan arrived on the appointed day and talked us through the contract and sorted out the photos and details for the listing. Our listing went live and that same day we received our first offer, albeit a lowball one. Showings occurred very frequently after that, and within two weeks we had accepted one of two further offers that had been made. Andrew from the support team talked us through the negotiation process and answered all our questions either by phone or email often late into the evening. There was also a very good Question and Answer database online which took us step by step through all the procedures related to the sale. The contract was checked by the team before we received it, and we were constantly updated about the buyer’s appraisal, home inspection, etc and given positive advice about our options. Our HUD settlement statement arrived via Email two days before closing, again with comments from Don Anthony’s team, and this gave us plenty of time to check the figures before we went to the attorney. We arrived in the certain knowledge that had there been anything untoward, Don Anthony’s team would have made us aware of it. Closing went without a hitch, and before we knew it we were on the road to our new destination just two months after listing. So if like us initially you are skeptical about the service, put those fears aside because we can report that we received a 110% service from this fine team and trust their presence in the area will be significantly increased.

    Sold a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $250K in Pineville, NC.
    I would highly recommend Don Anthony Realty for anyone thinking of selling their home. Don and his staff were very professional and responded to calls and emails almost immediately. Once our house was under contract, Don and his team worked with me on a daily basis to make sure all of my questions were answered. I am so glad we chose Don Anthony Realty to sell our home!More Less

    Sold a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $250K in Charlotte, NC.
    When we decided to sell our home we knew we would be counting every penny to be able to get in to our new home. I researched online and looked for discounted realtors and found Don Anthony. The listing process was very simple and everything we needed. Very quick and to the point. We listed on Tuesday morning and were negotiating between 4 offers over the weekend. Don Anthony was on the phone with us Friday, Saturday and Sunday night talking us through the process. Could not be more pleased with the outcome. We also decided to buy our new home through them and saved an additional $500.More Less

    About Don Anthony Realty

    Add personality to your profile! Tell the community about yourself, your home, and your profession.

    Don sold more homes over the last 2 years than 99.3% of the agents in the Charlotte Region. He perfected a low cost yet full service discount MLS listing program that revolutionized the way people sell real estate.

    Don Anthony Realty is a hybrid real estate brokerage where we use the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), blanketing Internet exposure, and professional signage to effectively market and sell property for a low flat fee up front and a small percentage when the property sells. We are a locally owned and operated independent brokerage, yet are a part of a nationwide network of like-minded real estate professionals. Since forming Don Anthony Realty in 2006, we have quickly become one of the top agents in the Charlotte Region. Our inventive and highly successful home-selling program is creating raging advocates that are feeding our business with referrals. Our goal is to change the way people buy and sell property, and our $499 flat fee, full-service listing program is doing just that!

    Specializing throughout the entire Charlotte Region, Don Anthony Realty is pioneering the volume based real estate model. Times are changing and the Internet is feeding information at an increasingly rapid pace. Buyers and sellers are no longer in the dark, yet the real estate industry is slow to change. Offering services that cater to savvy consumers, Don Anthony Realty has innovated a program that affords sellers a full service agent while giving them the ability to pay no buyer's agent commission at closing. Many sellers are selling their properties for just about %. Work that out with today's pricing, and the savings could mean a family vacation! Instead of sending your agent to Hawaii, why not take your family!


    What People Have To Say About Don Anthony Realty...

    Thank you so much for helping me sell my home. You definitely have the golden touch! As you know, my house was on the market for 6 months with Coldwell Banker. One month with you, and I am signed, sealed, and delivered! The difference in commission was substantial. I would definitely recommend you to anyone who is buying or selling a home. Thanks again for all your help!
    - Karen Childers

    We really appreciate the excellent service that you have provided to us. When we decided to put our home on the market we were expecting a lot of stress and headache. That is so far from what we received! The quick and efficient help that you offered to us was a true life saver. With having two small children and demanding jobs, there was not a lot of time to waste. I will recommend your company to anyone that is in need of buying or selling a home. They will be as free from stress and impressed just as our family was with this experience. Again, we truly appreciate you and your company for making this milestone in our life one to remember with happiness!
    - Chad and Kelly Crouse

I would not only use Don Anthony Realty again but would strongly suggest my friends and family use them. I actually already referred my Aunt and Uncle! The whole experience could not have been easier in what had the potential to be very stressful. I have the utmost confidence in Don Anthony Realty!
