Patty Masten was referred to us by a friend, as we were struggling to sell our 4 year old home. What a difference Patty made!! She took absolutely perfect photos of the house, both inside and outside. And she took the time to explain why she took the photos the way she did, and why she felt the pictures would help the sales process. In addition, Patty's strong marketing skills and sincere description of our home led to us selling it in less than 4 weeks!
Patty also treated us in such a polite and caring manner. She provided her thoughts and feedback, which we appreciated because of her knowledge and experience in the real estate field. But, she always made us feel involved in the entire process. She made us realize we did have a great home to sell, and she did it in a sincere and honest way.
Patty's effort and dedication can be summarized by explaining the first interaction we ever had with her, back in March 2007. We called Patty for the first time on a Saturday night, at around 6:30 pm. We explained that we had been struggling to get potential buyers to our home and we would love to have her come over as soon as it was convenient, which she said would be the next day, on Sunday morning. Well, that was timely enough, but Patty actually drove 20 minutes to our home on that same Saturday night, and dropped off at our front door a background piece on her, as well as a personalized marketing suggestion and strategy for selling our home. So, in less than two hours after first talking to her on the phone, she had the energy to prepare a package and drive it over. Now that is commitment!!
We would gladly suggest Patty Masten to anyone looking to sell their home. We have dealt with buying and selling three homes and no other realtor has come close to the commitment and personal touch that Patty provided to us.
We appreciate your hard work, dedication and especially friendship. You are the best!!!!

For over 30 years I have lived in an apartment or a condo and this year decided I wanted to own a house. I talked with one real estate agency, told them what I was looking for and was told they would be sending me some information on possibilities. I never heard back from them. I then spoke with Coldwell Banker and was fortunate enough to be put in touch with Patty Masten. From the word go she was one of the most positive and energetic people I have ever met. She answered all my questions and assured me that the property I wanted was out there (but perhaps not yet on the market). After looking a numerous houses and even putting a down payment on an old house that had all the markings of a “money pit” (Patty advised me to get out of that deal) I finally found exactly what I was looking for. Following her expert advice (she never let me down in this department), we negotiated an excellent deal and I am really happy and proud of my “new” house. She also handled the selling of my condo, getting the price I wanted and a contract within one month of putting it up for sale (in spite of the fact that there were three other condo’s for sale in the same complex). I am always impressed by people who are experts at their jobs. Patty is such a person. If you want someone who becomes a friend you can trust, who will literally never stop working for you, then I recommend Patty Masten enthusiastically and without qualification. She is a winner!

With your expertise and professionalism I was able to find the perfect house and location all in one day. The house is perfect for me and the whole buying process was so smooth and enjoyable.
I can never thank you enough for helping me and I will highly recommend you to anyone I know that is looking to purchase or sell a home. Jo Anne Fulk
Where to begin???? Mike and I wanted to thank you so much for all you have done for us. Never in a million years did I ever think we would live on a lake. The Peninsula is a beautiful place to live and raise Garrett. We love our home and all it holds in the future for us. Without you all of this wouldn't have been possible. You stuck with us through it all. Too big, too small, not enough water, no pool, pool, 2 car garage, 3 car garage...........should I go on? You honestly listened to our needs and wants for a particular house we were looking for. The process was painless and carefree. You made us feel like we were your priority from day one and appriciate that. Mike and I not only have the best agent in North Carolina but an amazing friend. I'm feeling the need for a cook out very soon. Thanks again for everything Patty! Much Happiness!!!!! Shelly, Mike, Garrett and Bailey
Both Pamela and I want to express our most sincere appreciation for the personal and professional services you have provided for us during the sale and most importantly, the closing of our house. Living in California and selling a house across the country in North Carolina could have proved to be a most stressful experience, but you were able to make our experience worry free. Just what any home seller is looking for.
Though we picked you up at a low point in the selling season, right before Christmas, you immediately began your aggressive marketing campaign that impressed the both of us. We were pleased and excited as this was not the type of marketing we were getting with our previous agent. So, it was no surprise to us that we had a sale pending with good solid buyers shortly after the holidays and New Year.
We are happy that the new buyers are as pleased with this transaction as we are. It is nice to see our house go to a nice family. Again, we just want to say thank you and we would definitely recommend anyone doing a long distance, or local sale for that matter, to use you for sure. Any seller seeking a true professional with personal attention would definitely appreciate your services. Keep up the excellent work and good luck to you in all of your future endeavors.

Words cannot express my gratitude to you, Patty. You treated me and my humble purchase of my little townhouse as if it were a million dollar home. In a business that is seen as greedy by most, you are an exception. You have integrity and are a true professional in every sense of the word. I was also impressed with all the wonderful professionals you affiliate yourself with. Whether mortgage brokers, contractors or handymen, they are all as honest and caring as yourself. You are one in a million. I think so much of you that I want to be your friend. You are blessed and a blessing. Thank you for all you did for me.

“Let Patty Masten Go the Extra Mile for You from Start to Finish!” It’s not just a slogan. It’s the way she does business. And we’ve definitely kept her busy this past year. After selling our rental house in May, we recommended her to our neighbors who needed to sell their house quickly. Within two weeks they had an offer. Several months later, we found out we were moving so, of course, called Patty again. She notified all the contacts that expressed interest in the neighbor’s house, but couldn’t get it since it was under contract. The first family to see our house bought it for the exact date we needed to close. We appreciate Patty’s resources and dedication to her job. We wouldn’t have sold so quickly without it.
