Carol Mercer, Broker-in-Charge, GRI
Working in real estate was always a career goal for me. I acquired my Virginia real estate license in 2001, kickstarting my journey as an Executive Assistant at a reputable commercial firm. In 2002 I decided to transition to my true love, residential real estate. I worked as an office manager in a small rural office and later put my license to use as a sales agent where I was able to assist clients in finding their perfect home.
My husband and I owned property on the Outer Banks, and when our daughter graduated from college, we made the Outer Banks our home. Within a few weeks I was working for Southern Shores Realty, the company who sold us our home. I immediately began the process of obtaining my North Carolina broker's license while working as an assistant and then Sales Office Manager.
In 2016 I earned the GRI designation and started to sell properties on the Outer Banks. This is a unique area and quite different from other localities, as most of our homes are second homes or investment properties. I have first-hand knowledge of the purchasing process, am very detail oriented, and have a network of professionals to assist in the buying/selling process. We would love to help you find the perfect Outer Banks home. Give us a call today!
