Hi, I’m Jody Whitehurst—a proud Apex local, KW Luxury Designated Realtor®, and someone who truly loves helping people find the home to complement their lifestyle.
Originally from the beautiful Finger Lakes region of Upstate New York, I made my way to North Carolina in 1999 and quickly fell in love with the charm and community of the Triangle area. I’ve called Downtown Apex home since 2007, and there’s no place I’d rather live, work, or play.
Before real estate, I spent a decade in hotel meeting and event planning, then launched a successful small business—Shaggy to Chic, a beloved dog grooming shop in Downtown Apex. When the pandemic closed my doors in 2020, I turned lemons into lemonade, used the time to earn my real estate license, and never looked back.
Today, I specialize in helping downsizers, empty nesters, and families relocating to the Raleigh area, including Apex, Cary, Holly Springs, and Fuquay-Varina. My clients know me for my down-to-earth style, clear communication, strong negotiation skills, and deep local knowledge.
Whether you’re buying your first home, selling your longtime home, or planning your retirement move to a 55+ community, I’m here to make the process as smooth—and even as fun—as possible. I was also honored to be named one of the Top Real Estate YouTubers to Watch in NC for 2024, and my channel (At Home with Jody) is packed with local tours, tips, and honest advice.
When I’m not helping clients, you’ll find me acting, digging in my garden, reading, spending time outdoors, or spending time with my family playing pool, with our rescue dog, Toby, hanging out at our feet.
Let’s connect—I’d love to help you find your place in the Triangle.
