"Adam responded to us any time of day, and his responses were detailed and very helpful. We both felt he had a great personality, knew his business, and would get answers if he did not know something. He is the best!"

"Shane and Adam were courteous and professional, and we thoroughly enjoyed working with them throughout the buying process. They stayed on top of it and helped us with every aspect, which was a lot given we are new to the Outer Banks. Maybe it is the OBX way, but it felt like we were the only people Shane and Adam had to worry about, and I know that is not true. We felt like they were part of the team. It made it all that much more enjoyable to make this investment and chart new territory."

"Shane Collins (and Adam Burkhimer, once we were moving through the purchase process) was great. He took our wish list into account and delivered on what we wanted, 100%. When we went to OBX to look at houses, he showed us options that were just outside of our comfort zone so we could see many options that were within the range of what we were looking for. He was no frills, straightforward, and honest. I plan to work with him again in the future when we are ready to purchase another vacation rental."

"Again, Adam is so flexible and attentive to us. We have changed locations and budget since our original ideas, and Adam just rolls with it. To the point that I say, “I’m sorry I changed my mind again, but I promise you will get the sale!"

"Shane created a route and spent a full Saturday with us; he was extremely prepared, and as a result we were able to make a decision—he makes it look easy, but I’m well aware that it took a lot of time/energy—much appreciated! Hands down the most responsive and knowledgeable realtor we have ever used!"

"Shane made the entire process effortless. He was ahead of me every step of the way, looking out for me to make sure that the transaction went smoothly and was right by me both financially and lifestyle-wise. He made me aware of any risks to the homes that we viewed. For my next home purchase or selling my current home, I would use Shane as my agent."

"Shane is one of the best realtors that I have had the pleasure of working with. I work for a custom home builder in Raleigh, NC, and I wish every realtor were as good as Shane and Adam. They are a superstar team and communicated so well that I never had any worries or doubts throughout, and they were so knowledgeable during our search as well. Without Shane and his knowledge, I may not have even made a purchase after just one weekend visit."

"The team was dedicated and professional throughout the entire buying process. All parts of the real estate transaction were transparent. Our agent was dedicated and working for us. His vast knowledge about the area, history, rules and regulations, building codes, and process made us feel comfortable. He was always in communication to let us know what we needed to do and the reason behind each request. We could not have had a better agent."

"My wife had a lot of questions about schools, school zones, and education on the island in general. Shane put my wife in communication with his, as she has tons of knowledge in that area. It takes a special person to open up your family to others when you have never truly met someone, and we will always be appreciative and feel like we have friends for life."

"Shane is very honest and knows how to explain things that some people may have a hard time hearing in a way that is easier to digest. Buying and selling is very personal, and he is respectful to both parties. Adam is excellent with the numbers and detailed property information. They are both very available and quick to reply, which I can imagine is extremely difficult given all the tasks, behind-the-scenes work, and other people they’re working with. They are very thorough and make a great team!"

"Shane and Adam simply listen to what their clients’ needs are and perform at the best of their abilities to find exactly what they need and not what the realtor thinks they need, and push properties just for a sale."
