"Dear Louise, I can hardly find the words to than you enough....Your support, thoughtfulness & great guidance made this a wonderful new chapter in my life a reality. I am sure without your help this dream would not have come true."
Much Love, Suki Roth
"Louise, I just wanted to thank you for your calm, professional assistance during our recent transaction. Truly, we would not have had the outcome we did without your knowledge and suggestions. It was a genuine pleasure to work with you, and I would look forward to any future co-broker opportunities."
Diane Dissell, Broker, Howard Perry & Walston, Durham
"Louise, Thank you so much for all your help & support in my relocation to Raleigh. It was so difficult to leave my house in Chatham & such a blessing to have your compassionate, accepting energy around me. Thank you so much for all you've done to help me."
Rochelle
"Louise was knowledgeable, creative, passionate, and committed when selling our property.She didn't tell us what to do but rather presented us with the information we needed to make an informed decision. Louise's interest in our land and dedication to the project ultimately enabled me to trust her and allowed me the freedom to go on with my life while she shouldered most of the responsibility for the development and the decisions that resulted."
Carolyn Lloyd / Shotts Farm, North Chatham County
"Working with Louise made the difference between my buying a house or waiting several years more to buy. I'm so glad I bought when I did! She's both smart and honest."
Jackie Allen, Carrboro
"I worked with Louise in both selling my Pittsboro home and buying a new home in Graham. I found her to exceed expectations on professionalism, knowledge of process, sensitivity to needs, and ability to maneuver with grace through all the potential hazards of home buying. Louise was extremely sensitive and intuitive about the type of property that would interest me. She was respectful, listened carefully to my desires and advocated tactfully but adamantly on my behalf."
Barbara Averitt, Saxapahaw
"Louise was excellent as assessing our needs and quickly matching us to a property. She found us our dream spot."
Dorothy Hammett, North Chatham County

"Dear Gary, As Kristine and I begin our adventure and the process of making the farm our own, we wanted to thank you for all your help from beginning to end. It has been an illuminating process and I am grateful for your creative spark and wise counsel."
Jerome & Kristine Levitt, Silk Hope
"Dear Gary- Once again, I can't tell you how grateful I am that you're my Realtor and friend. I hope you will be able to put this giftcard to good use. It's so small compared to what you did for me. I just hope you know how much your help meant."
Molly Matlock, Bynum
Don Basnight
"Thank you for your continued support of the Orange County Rape Crisis Center. You did a wonderful job as our auctioneer by keeping the audience's attention and helping us to raise over $70,000."
With Great Appreciation, Shamecca Bryant, Development Director
"I strongly recommend Don Basnight at Weaver Street Realty. When we bought our house, he was with us every step of the way, explaining everything and giving tons of support and good advice. He hooked us up with other very down-to-earth and knowledgeable people to help us through the process. Don has lived here forever and has an amazing amount of information in his head about the area and the process of buying and selling land and homes. On top of that, he is a great guy!"
Kelly Fuller, Chapel Hill
"It's been a pleasure working with Weaver Street Realty in the selling of my house. I'm especially grateful to Don Basnight, who from the very beginning educated me in all the ins and outs of real estate, made many helpful suggestions for making the house more sellable, and has become a good friend. I would also like to commend the staff for their friendliness and efficient handling of the showing of the house. It has been an amazingly stress-free experience and I thank all who were involved."
Dot Lineberger, Chapel Hill
"Don Basnight's incomparable familiarity with the Chapel Hill market, seasoned professionalism and good nature made listing and selling my home a pleasure. Don could not have been more helpful in guiding me through the entire process and looking out for my interests. The result — a quick sale very close to the listing price — clearly reflects his skill and experience as a realtor. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to work with Don again or to recommend him to family and friends."
Merrill Wolf, Chapel Hill
"Don has handled several real estate transactions for me over the past four years. One was a land purchase in Chatham County and then the subsequent sale of that property. Recently, he represented me in the purchase of a house. He knows the Chapel Hill and surrounding area market very well, which made my search process very easy. I have great trust in Don as a real estate agent and in his personal integrity — he is forthright, fair and honest. I highly recommend hims as a knowledgeable agent and one who is very easy to work with. He's great!"
Sarah Wooten, Chapel Hill
Gail Crider
"Dear Gail- It was a pleasure working with you. Your great patience helped make the transaction go very smoothly — and patience was certainly needed with some of the issues that arose. Together we got through it! I would welcome the opportunity to work with you once again in the future."
Ann Jacobi-Brown, Broker, Howard, Perry & Walston
"We had looked for property and homes on our own. Only later did we realize how much time we wasted. Once we called Gail, she was able to translate from my vague descriptions just what we wanted. She emailed us descriptions and pictures (we've lived hours away). Then called with what she described as "just what I think you're looking for." She was right. We made an offer that day and just recently moved in.Gail helped guide us through the home buying process with her thorough descriptions, suggestions for service people, calls on our behalf, calls to calm our nerves and too many other details to mention. I hope I never have to move or buy a home again, but if I do, it would only be with Gail!"
Mari Trosclair and Keith Buckley, Chapel Hill
"Dear Gail- I met a woman who you were working with to find a house and my heart swelled with gratitude for you helping me find my farm. I hope you're healthy & happy and great. I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate you!"
Martha Mattocks
Melanie Maxwell
"Melanie was tireless, enthusiastic, full of good information, and very friendly. Melanie went above and beyond the call of duty in helping me complete a sale in twenty-five days, which I am sure is a near record. I could not have done it without her, and I am very happy with my house. In these days of ever-increasing business competition, excellent service stands out and builds good relationships and great reputations. Melanie has made a customer for life, and I highly recommend her to everyone that I have met who is interested in purchasing a home. My thanks to everyone at Weaver Street Realty who helped make everything possible."
Nicholas Browning, MD, Hillsborough
"I chose Weaver Street Realty because I love "keeping it local." Moving from Ithaca, NY to the triangle area with two children, while completing a certificate in independent film making could have been a nightmare. But, I was lucky, and fortunate to have Melanie Maxwell as my agent. Not only did she listen closely to my odd list of desired characteristics in a home, she acted as the professional, clear visionary for helping me find just the right place. When the search for just the right home was frustrating, Melanie reminded me that "home" is out there, we just have to keep looking, and we'd know when we'd found it. And we did! Melanie is personable, patient, and fun and easy to do business with. I have told all of my friends about Melanie Maxwell as a lucky find and a blessing in what could have been a crazy search for a new house."
Zelda Lockhart, Extremely Satisfied Customer
"I recently concluded a very successful buying experience with one of your colleagues, Melanie Maxwell. She was a pleasure to work with every step of the way. She exudes professionalism, patience and fortitude. Her knowledge of the market and attention to details allowed me to purchase the home of my dreams at a very affordable price with an enviable percentage rate to boot.I could not have been happier with my experience. She is an asset to your organization and you will do well by me when the opportunity comes about to send future clients your way. Please congratulate her on a job well done!"
Timothy Grant, Chapel Hill
"We greatly appreciate Melanie's efficiency and professional expertise handling all the details of our purchase as well as her "above-and-beyond-the-call-of-duty" extra touches."
Susan & John McMichael, Chapel Hill
Marie Vanderbeck
"Dear Ms. Vanderbeck: I just wanted to let you know that I enjoyed working with you for the past several months in regards to the transaction on Lystra Road. You are a very dedicated professional. I look forward to many closings together in the future."
Eric Andrews, Principal Broker, Realty World Carolina Properties, Pittsboro
Bill Mullen
"We would like to express our gratitude to Weaver Street Realty for managing the sale of our house. We feel that the service your staff provided was exceptional, and on a satisfaction scale of 0 to 100%, we would rate ever aspect of the transaction well over 100%. Special thanks to our agent, Bill Mullen. Bill's knowledge and experience with real estate sales was evident even prior to listing and through closing, but his attitude, thoughtfulness, and friendliness played an equally important role in the smooth transaction. We always felt as if we had a best friend selling our house. Bill was always accessible, responded quickly to our inquiries, and gave us expert advice. We feel that the suggestions he made for getting the house ready to sell, and the extra efforts he made to make the house more appealing ultimately led to an unbelievably quick sale. Someone who is personable and trustworthy, a smooth transaction, and a quick sale — what more could anyone ask for in a real estate agent — it just doesn't get any better than that! Thank you Bill!"
Ed Siff & Diane Ramsey
"Dear Bill, We love our new place. Thank you for having found it! Despite our being very selective about what we were looking for, you figured us out quickly and consistently showed us places on the mark. You have a wonderful ability to listen and to understand and sense another's vision. Any your open and easy communication, your vast knowledge of the area and the people in the community, and your endless patience were true assets as the buying process unfolded. We really enjoyed working with you, Bill, and we thank you for all your time and hard work.
Kate Kessler, New Hill
"Bill, we really appreciate the help you have given us on the preparation and sale of our property. We think you've set a new record in the modern world for reliability and much of your work on our behalf, we feel, has been above & beyond the call of duty."
Rachel & Blair Hill, Hillsborough
"Bill, thank you for everything! Weaver Street Realty is lucky to have you."
Eddie & Karen Taylor, Durham
"Bill, you have been the best real estate agent imaginable, and have become a good friend as well. Thank you very much."
Jeff & Diane Pettus, Chapel Hill
"We love our property, Bill, and are very happy that everything all worked out. We were surprised to find ourselves so quickly in the whole processand relatively naive as first-time home buyers. However, I want to let you know how much your prompt responses and honesty alleviated concerns about the house. Thank you so much."
Mark Pandick, Chapel Hill
Jay Parker
"Jay, thank you so much for the extraordinary effort you made" in helping us sell our home. We "are especially impressed with your professional demeanor and the caring attention you gave the buyers when they needed extra careful handling. You did a great job."
