Morgan Castillo, Jacksonville, NC, a seller from Jacksonville, NC
We worked with Chip while purchasing our house from out of state and he was amazing through that process, we didn't even consider using someone else when selling our house.
Chip took the time to explain the contracts/negotiations to us even with all our questions and always had our best interest in mind.
Chip was professional and friendly and was always available for any questions or concerns we had.
Chip was amazing through the entire process and made sure we understood everything as we moved forward. He was always available for any questions or concerns we had, and we had a lot of them! I will definitely recommend Chip to anyone who asks and we will 100% use him again when we move back to Jacksonville!
Chip is outstanding and extremely knowledable in his profession. I've gone to Chip before with questions and he's always there to answer them. He made if feel comfortable and informered with the purchase of our new home !

It was awesome working with Chip.He did a great job showing different houses.
It was a pleasure dealing with Chip. He knows the area well and has many connections. We also built this house with Chip and he was just as helpful in that process.
Troy Riley Jacksonville Fl., a buyer from Stella, NC
Chip Ruff was the ideal realtor to work with. This guy helped us get into the house we really wanted and got us an amazing deal while working with the seller. He then helped get our other home sold even when we ran into so many hiccups he never lost faith and kept the drive going. It's no wonder he is great at his job.
Chip Ruff was truly professional at all times while handling the sale of my house. His advice was always timely and complete; rarely did I need to ask follow-up questions. Because of this he quickly earned my trust. I would recommend Chip to anyone of my friends and family that needed a conscientious and professional real estate broker.
Blake Pauly, Richlands, a buyer from Richlands, NC
I would highly recommend Chip Ruff to anyone. He was knowledgeable and made my first home buying experience smooth. Chip knew the area and was able to get me into the right house for me. Coming from out of state is normally difficult to buy a home, Chip worked with me every step of the way and was quick to respond when I had questions. 10/10 would use Chip Ruff in any type of home purchase again.
Chip was an amazing help. Always available, even late times, he made the process far easier than buying a home was ever expected.
He went above and beyond through out the process. He was always timely and went out of his way to make sure everything was taken care of. He answered all our questions, and helped us accomplish anything that needed to be done.
We truly believe that without Chip we would not have been selected by the sellers for our new home.
We have referred him to friends in the area and would seek his help for future purchases or questions.
Chip worked above and beyond getting us our proceeds to our new address. We had offers before it was it the market. We look forward working with him again!
Very reachable person! We felt like we had 24/7 service with him. He constantly updated us on the process and we felt more than welcome in sending him a message if we had a question.
Chip is a great person to work with especially for first time buyer/sellers!
I gave Chip Ruff all top remarks because he honestly deserves it. It's not everyday when you meet someone truly enthusiastic and caring about their profession and Chip Ruff made my families experience extremely smooth and welcoming! He deserves it!
Dedric Davis, Marion Texas , a seller from Jacksonville, NC
Chip Ruff exceeded expectations from the home purchase to the home sale. He is professional, polite and easy to talk to. He is a straight shooter and not trying to paint a picture better than it is. My experience with Chip Ruff was nothing short of spectacular and I would highly recommend him to all potential homeowners and those looking to list their homes for sale. Thanks Chip, was a pleasure working with you and becoming friends!
Pvt Lynch, Murrill Richlands, a buyer from Richlands, NC
Amazing to work with.
Extremely great to work with. Straight forward to you as the buyer and to the seller. We closed on our house in 2 weeks. Communication is excellent. Always replies to you as soon as he can even after closing on the house. Im glad we got to work with him and build a connection. He was more worried on getting my wife and I a good quality house rather than just making a sale.
I wasnt able to go and look at the house before starting the buying process. Chip Ruff helped out a lot with getting a house worth it.

Shelby Whitaker, Jacksonville, a seller from Jacksonville, NC
Chip Ruff was extremely professional and helpful. He made this process seamless and I will be forever grateful for his hard work and dedication. He is truthful and transparent throughout every step of the process and maintains timely and clear communication. I will have no doubts about referring potential buyers to him in the future. He was friendly, honest, and superior in his line of work.
Chip is exactly the realtor I was looking for. He advised me on what to look for in a home based on my desires, and advised on good locations for me. He helped find a house that was in my price range without trying to get me to buy anything more expensive. His handling of inspections and lawyers during closing was smooth and simple from my view, and it made the home purchase simple.
Chip is great! He was down-to earth, knowledgeable, and competent. We knew we were in good hands from day one! Hopefully we wont be selling or buying again for a long time, but if we do, Chip will be the guy we call!
Felipe Rodriguez, Jacksonville , a buyer from Jacksonville, NC
Chip Ruff made my process of buying a home awesome and fun! Throughout the whole process chip was always 3 steps ahead. I recommend Chip because he is a Marine veteran and completely understands the military life style. Chips knowledge and experience made my journey easy and stress free.
Dayton Aud, Bedford VA, a seller from Richlands, NC
Once again Chip Ruff did an amazing job again I appreciate everything he did for us
We really appreciate Chip and how much he helped us with purchasing our first home, it was a scary step but he made us comfortable and put us at ease with how knowledgeable and well he knows what hes doing. Every question we asked was answered immediately. We will always recommend Chip
Isabella DuBray, Burgaw, NC, a buyer from Burgaw, NC
Chip is personable and has a great work ethic. He was always available by phone while looking at several houses and took our busy work schedules in to consideration when looking as well. Chip consistently kept us updated on what was going on from Day 1 of making an offer until we officially closed. We sought out his advice frequently throughout the process, which was helpful in decision making and getting a better deal in the end. There were several issues that came back on the inspection and appraisal, which he handled professionally and we were able to get everything we needed before closing! We are appreciative that he listened to our needs, and was able to get the house functioning before moving in. A basic need, but the seller made it difficult. I would definitely recommend Chip to family/friends if they are in need of a realtor in the future!
Hunter Wilkes, Richland NC , a buyer from Richlands, NC
Chip was an outstanding Realtor. Very pleased with the amount of help he has given me!
Brock Joseph, Motta Sant'Anastasia,, a seller from Jacksonville, NC
Chip did a fantastic job of helping to sell the house at a reasonable price and in a timely fashion.
Chip was recommended by a friend and was professional and personable throughout every bit of the process.
I decided I needed a beach home around April 2018. Things had drastically changed in my life. I mentioned it to Chip Ruff. A few weeks later (it wasnt sooner as he knew I had a busy few weeks) he had a couple places he thought I might like. Before I even looked I said I have a few things that are musts. It must be on topsail island. North topsail but the southern end of north topsail. I also said I wanted a B lot so that I have some protection from storms. I wanted a B lot with its own private access to the beach. It needed to have 5 bedrooms. And of course it had to be pretty!! I wanted open and full of light. A lot of things happened between April and when I had time to look at homes again. I was out of town until November. He narrowed down HIS list to match my musts. And there were 2 left. I looked at both online, and I only wanted to look at 1 in person. We came to the home. After looking through the home we sat in the common area....for what ended up being nearly 2 HOURS!! He never rushed us to leave. When we left, my friend and I realized how long we had been there. Then I realized I was at peace....a feeling I had not had in months, actually it was the best feeling Id had in a full year!! I called chip and said to put in an offer. With a little back and forth I was able to close on my beautiful saltwater therapy January 2019!! If you are looking for a realtor you cant find one more vested in his Clients.
Chip Ruff was recommend but family members who had used him in the past and he did not disappoint! To start we gave Chip a list of thing we wanted in a house and within 48 hrs he multiple places for us to start looking at. We bought sight unseen, which is a big risk. He went back to the house multiple times to take pictures and videos of different things we asked for. He worked at all hours of the day because we were on a 12 hr time difference and always got back to us in a timely manner. He handled all inspections with the upmost diligence. If youre looking for someone to trust, Chip Ruff is your man.
Juanita Padrick, Jacksonville, a seller from Jacksonville, NC
Chip was a personable, professional and friendly young man.
We recently purchased a new home and Chip was the agent that worked with us and was considerate of needs.
We felt comfortable with Chip as our selling agent.
Kevin Phillips, Hubert NC, a seller from Hubert, NC
I am impressed with how Chip handled our sale. I never met Chip in person because I was out of state when I was selling my house, however, he accomplished everything in a timely manner and was great at explaining the process to me. When I needed to make contact with him he was great about getting back to me the same day and was always open-minded to anything I suggested. I would highly recommend Chip if any sales needs!
Jaquavious Evans & Richlands,NC, a buyer from Richlands, NC
Chip is the way to go when looking for a home! He is patient and never gives up.
William and Tracey Painter, a buyer from Jacksonville, NC
We meet Chip Ruff through the Navy Federal Realty Plus program. We felt comfortable dealing with an agent that Navy Federal had vetted, and Chip exceeded all expectations. Throughout our home buying experience, Chip displayed a wealth of knowledge, and he shared our vision for our forever home and helped to make our dream a reality. Chip was responsive to our needs and remained in constant communication with us throughout the buying process. It meant a lot that he was with us every step of the way. If you are looking for a skilled, honest, and committed real estate agent, look no further, Chip Ruff is the right person to provide you with an enjoyable home buying experience.
Tabytha Wilson, Hubert NC, a seller from Hubert, NC
Chip was an awesome Realtor! We had so many questions about the selling process and he went above and beyond to make sure we understand everything! Im sketchy about who I hire but he was referred by a friend and I understand why. He was knowledgeable and understanding anytime we couldnt do something or when money was tight. He always made sure to find a way to make things affordable for us when it came to the selling expenses outside of the closing costs. Chip is awesome and if you havent worked with him, you should.
Chip made our home buying process extremely easy. We had little time to buy a home, but Chip got us the perfect home in a short amount of time. He paid attention to small details that we had overlooked previously. We have already recommended Chip to a friend and will continue to do so moving forward.
Chip exceeded every expectation we had for a realtor. We were first-time home buyers, walked in to his office and within 30 minutes he had us set up with a VA lender, pre-approved and already making walk-through appointments for 4 homes. I was constantly looking at listings and sending him homes I wanted to be in at all hours. He got us in to every home within 24 hours. He was incredibly available and accommodating. He listened and respected our wants and budget. We never felt pressured to put an offer in on anything we didn't choose. Our home search only took one week from touring a lot of homes to having an accepted offer. He took the fear and hassle away from buying a home. 2019
Chip was great to work with! He was a big health through the process of our new construction home. Thank you Chip!
Carlos Hernandez, Jacksonville, a buyer from Jacksonville, NC

Micheal Cummins, Jacksonville NC , a buyer from Jacksonville, NC
Chip was a professional and dedicated agent, helping every step along the way making sure no one step was left unattended and staying on top of the situation at all times. He displayed amazing dedication and made the buying process more comfortable and understandable for a first time buyer. Chip consistently pulled through and delivered excellent service every single day. I would refer chip to any one looking to buy a home in the area and will be using his services again.
If I ever need anything like this done again I will definitely go to chip hands down this went so smoothly for everyone and it was done in a timely fashion I would recommend him to everyone and I will definitely be back if I need to sell my home down the road
Thomas and Lynsey Timmons, Hubert., a buyer from Hubert, NC
Chip is a class act. Again he worked all day everyday to assist my family and appeared to genuinely care about our needs. Chip has our full trust and confidence and I will work with him in the future to sell my house. I cannot say enough good things about him and I really appreciate the time he sacrificed to help us buy our first home. I can recall a late night where he stayed up late researching a house we were interested in. He came back to us and stated the house was a bit over priced and speared headed the negotiations to lower the price. It did not work out; however, he continued to work diligently to find our home for us.
I stated a lot in the survey already. It tooks is several months to find the home we bought. We put in bids on serveal homes but they feel through in no fault of chip. However, we looked from Sneads ferry to Swansboro and chip knew them. We talked through issues and weighed pro and cons. We negoioted with builders and realtors. All to reach a great deal. Once complete, Chip follows through. He stays in contact on still works on our behalf with agreed upon fixes. A professional and friend. Great job chip
Chip is a professional person who is willing to work hoed for his clients. Willing to go above what is expected.
Whitaker Party of Three Jacksonville, a buyer from Jacksonville, NC
From start to finish Chip handled everything for us. He made what we thought would be a difficult process a breeze. We have been blessed by Chip not only for his patience, but because he truly wanted to help us find a home, not just sell us a house! That is exactly what he did!
