Hi, I am Allen Brasington, III, a native of Darlington, SC, and a proud transplant to Western North Carolina since 2008. My commitment to public service shines through in my work in the community and especially as a Real Estate Broker. In my years here in Asheville, I have worked diligently to make our community a better place through community involvement, just as I work to be the best at my job as a Real Estate Broker!
I have long been a Rotarian, and I practice the Four Way Test of Rotary in representing both Buyers and Sellers. #1: Is it the truth?, #2: Is it fair to all concerned?, #3: Will it build goodwill and better friendships?, #4: Will it be beneficial to all concerned?. Buying a home can be a daunting experience, and my goal is to make it a smooth and equitable transition for all. Not only do I have a comprehensive understanding of the markets within the various areas of Western North Carolina, but I also understand well the nuances of our different towns and communities across the region and how that affects you. This unique understanding pairs me well with those who are moving to the area for the first time or looking to right-size locally.
Growing up in a Military family, I understand the applicable benefits that service entitles. I also work well with seniors looking for their spot in the mountains, first-time home buyers taking the plunge into homeownership, investors wishing to secure their future, and families of every description seeking the perfect place to call home. Please feel free to reach out, and I'll gladly discuss your distinctive situation and how I can help. I'm only ever a call away! 828-575-7865 is my cell. Thank you for taking the time to review my profile.
