Pirate’s Cove Realty – We serve sellers from Manteo to Corolla
In 2011, Elizabeth earned her real estate license and hit the ground running. Noticing her early success and utilization of technology, Pirate’s Cove Realty recruited her in 2012 to join their real estate company. Elizabeth restructured and revamped the sales department, and one year later, quadrupled their sales and services. Recognizing her need for help, she formed The Gamiel Team in 2014. Team member Kristine Bergin brings her own energy and style to The Gamiel Team and Elizabeth is proud of her success.
In 2016, 2018, 2019 and 2020 Elizabeth ranked in the Top 1% of OBX Agents.
Many think Pirate’s Cove agents only serve the Pirate’s Cove Subdivision. Nothing is further from the truth. In fact, due to their growth and expanding market, they opened a second sales office in Kill Devil Hills. Today, the sales department is staffed by smart, knowledgeable and hungry agents that serve their clients with integrity and class.
About Elizabeth:
Elizabeth is from the foothills of North Carolina, hence the “twang” in her speech. She was raised in Lincolnton – home of the “Apple Festival.” She graduated from UNC-Chapel Hill (Go Heels!) and later earned a Master’s Degree in Communication Disorders from NCCU. She moved her family to the Outer Banks because she loves the culture, the heritage, and the food from the local waters. She has three children who are… well, children and all that entails.
What I Consider Essential in Today’s Market:
Comparative Market Analysis (CMA)
A CMA is the MOST IMPORTANT step in determining the value of your home. A few quick queries, scratches on notebook paper is inefficient. An indepth, competent CMA is the first step in listing your home.
Marketing Plans Are Written Specific to Each Property
I do not use a boilerplate marketing plan. I analyze your property, take notes, review the property history, research the neighborhood, and make recommendations specifice to that property and its location.
