My realty experience with Julie McNichol was nothing short of professional and results oriented. Her insights wer incredibly helpful & prescient. She was and continues to be thorough during my real estate search. Her attention to detail and conscientiousness was evident from the start. I will be happy to recommend her to any perspective buyers or sellers. To me, she was the "Babe Ruth of Real Estate Agents". Thank you, Julie! 2024
This is the second time working with Julie and I could not be happier. Julie has both sold a home for me and helped me purchase within the last 18 months. She is helpful, knowledgeable, and kind. Julie will always be my go to realtor in Moore County. 2023
Julie and her team are beyond the word amazing. We looked at over 30 houses. Not once did we feel like we were a burden to her. She always let us know that finding the perfect home can take time and we can see as many houses as we need. Her and her associates patience is exceptional. We appreciated Julie being so honest about things at homes she would see that could be problematic, require costly repairs, or a lot of work to fix so that we could make the best decision possible. Her experience and knowledge far exceeded our expectations. She isnt about just a sale either. She is about making her clients happy and helping them find the perfect home. Julie and her entire team made things so easy from start to finish during this process. She and her team were diligent and timely with everything. We would recommend her to anyone we know. 2023
Julie made selling our home so easy and stress free. She was always available, quick to answer, and took care of any issues that came up. It was a joy to work with her and am forever thankful that she made our transition so easy on us. 2022
Julie and her husband, Shawn, were amongst the first to welcome us to North Carolina and what a great start to our familys new adventure!
Coming from a family of Realtors, choosing the right match was essential to our home buying process. Julie came to us highly recommended by not one but multiple well-respected colleagues. As out-of-state buyers, we first met virtually and she won us over.. Not only did she entertain our toddler (who is now OBSESSED with Miss Julie) but she knew the areas we wanted to search based off the initial meeting and were happy to report, she was spot on.
Every obstacle we faced, she helped us overcome and we made it into our new home on time and couldnt be happier! She never hesitated to find time for us or help us with whatever was needed.
We will forever be thankful for everyone who led us to Julie, Kelsey and their team, as well as Susan (lender) for getting us into our new home. These are the people you want selling and helping you purchase your new home! 2022
Absolutely terrific! Very punctual and professional! As a first time home buyer her expertise, experience, and knowledge on what to look for and cater to what myself and my wife wanted was phenomenal! The level of competence displayed by her and her team is literally unrivaled ! 2022
Matt Ziolkowski, Lumber Bridge , a buyer from Lumber Bridge, NC
Julie was amazing throughout this whole process. I will recommend her to anyone looking for a new property from here on out! Julie made moving across multiple states a lot easier for us and we can't thank her and her team enough.
Julie McNicol and her Dream Home Team were excellent to work with. She responded quickly and professionally. I wasn't here locally when my home came up for sale, but Julie knew that I'd love it. She made the process efficient and easy. It was obvious that Julie was experienced and knowledgeable. I love my new home and thankful for Julie and Kelsey making it happen!
Julie is great! Very knowledgeable about the area.
Brenda Monse Royal Palm Beach, FL, a buyer from Pinehurst, NC
I would recommend Julie to my family and friends for many reasons. She personable, professional, flexible with her days and time, polite, caring, knowledgeable of the area, and if she didn't know how to answer a question about the property, she followed through by finding the answer which is important to us. Thank you, Julie!
Julie was awesome and made selling my home easy. She took care of a lot so I could focus on what I needed to. Highly recommend Julie to anyone looking to buy or sell. 2022
Our parents, having lived in Pinehurst for 20 years, passed away. Their four children, who lived in California, Washington, Vermont and Maine, became the owners. Julie McNicol was outstanding in not only representing the four owners (who were not onsite) in the sale, but also provided crucial on-site information to us during all parts of the sale process. Julie went the extra mile from beginning to end. I can't imagine another agent willing to give so selflessly to help a seller. Her communication skills were outstanding.
Having someone who is familiar with the military was a major bonus!
Ryan S., Pinehurst, NC, a seller from Pinehurst, NC
We met Julie McNicol during my familys last transfer from Washington DC to Pinehurst in 2020. My wife and I contacted her because she was a military spouse and understood the transfer process of buying a new home remotely. After meeting her though, she completely won us over. She had all the knowledge and expertise youd want in a realtor. But what really made the process so great was that Julie genuinely cared about us and made every effort to minimize the stress that she knew came with a long distance move. When I was transferred again in 2022, we did not hesitate to call Julie to sell our home for us. From start to finish she made the process as easy as possible and was there for us to answer any questions that came up along the way. Julie is an AMAZING realtor, but an even better person!! If I had to do it all over again, Id call Julie 100 out of 100 times. Shes the best and I recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Moore County! Thank you, Julie!

Emily Richeson, Pinehurst NC, a buyer from Pinehurst, NC
Julie made the process of buying and selling properties in Pinehurst seamless. With her guidance and expertise, we were able to sell our home quickly and purchase a home navigating an incredibly competitive market. Julie's realtor skills are top notch- from market research, to professional photography, to clear communication and accessibility- I would recommend Julie to any buyer or seller in the area.
Kevin and Nicky, Pinehurst, NC, a buyer from Pinehurst, NC
We recently purchased a house in Pinehurst, NC with Julie McNicol working as our agent. The fact that we resided 3000 miles away at the time did not bother Julie at all. From start to finish Julie ushered us through the process. After discussing our needs and desires she set us up to get alerts immediately on houses that matched our criteria. If something caught our eye Julie would immediately go walk thru the property providing us feedback and additional photos about it. Julies knowledge of the market and area is second to none. Despite being outbid numerous times over a 6-month search Julie remained positive and found us our Dream Home. We wholeheartedly recommend Julie McNicol as a real estate agent! We think anyone would find her engaging, understanding and easy to work with.

Julie is amazing! I specifically sought Julie out after reading reviews about how helpful she has been to military families PCSing from out of state. We were completing a cross-country move and knew we would not have any opportunity to see potential homes in person. After our first discussion with Julie, we were absolutely sure we found the perfect person to assist in our home search!
Julie was fantastic in all our dealings. She wrote many offers for us in such a competitive market. Additionally, Julie connected us to a local mortage lender who was much more responsive to our needs than the national lender we had started working with. Julie was persistent in following up with the sellers on every offer we submitted.
I cannot say enough good things about Julie. We have already recommended her to multiple families who will be relocating to the area in the future. She is truly kind and wants the best for her clients. A cross-county home purchase, during covid, with limited inventory was extremely stressful. Julie was able to navigate both the market and our anxiety as a pro.
Paul Capstick, Mililani, HI, a seller from Aberdeen, NC
Julie is an exceptional Realtor. She is extremely knowledgeable in the local area and the sales process. Julies knowledge led to an accurate listing price resulting in several over asking offers within days of listing. She guided us through the entire sales process and handled everything on our behalf due to geographical distance to include repairs. She was professional and communicated efficiently and timely. I absolutely trust Julie and her team with my real estate transactions and will continue to utilize her in the future and recommend her to others.
Selling our home in NC while living in HI seemed overwhelming at first until we found Julie. She came highly recommended from a previous colleague. Julies knowledge within the local area aided in setting an accurate list price that resulted in several over asking offers within just a few days. She was professional and communicated effectively and timely throughout our entire transaction. Julie went above and beyond in marketing our home to include listing photos and staging. She handled nearly everything on our behalf to include repairs due to our geographical distance. I will absolutely turn to Julie for all future real estate transactions and highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell! 2021
Lauren & Darren Ziolkowski - Raeford, NC, a buyer from Southern Pines, NC
Julie McNicol took us under her wing and never lost hope given market circumstances. It was easy to trust her; knowledgeable and responsive. Although it was a business transaction, she made us feel like family and that our best interest was at heart. I would recommend her time and time again.. everyone deserves peace of mind and comfort when making such a decision, and that is exactly what she gave us.
Julie McNicol was fantastic to work with as we purchased land to build. So when we decided to sell our existing home we didnt think twice about engaging Julie!
Stress free, straightforward sale handled with utmost care and professionalism by Julie McNicol!
Sara & Bill, Pinehurst, NC, a buyer from Pinehurst, NC
Julie was highly recommended to us by close friends who had purchased a home in Pinehurst earlier this year. She truly was amazing! Julie is one of the hardest working people we've ever met. She was committed to finding the right home for us and to making our experience as easy as possible. We cannot imagine how we would have purchased our home without all of her help and support. We would not hesitate to recommend Julie McNicol to other friends and family looking for an real estate partner.
Brett & Kelly Buehner, Evans, GA, a seller from Pinehurst, NC
Julie was recommended to us by several of our military friends. Being out of the area, Julie went above and beyond to make sure the sale of our home was an easy process.
Cammi Smith, Pinehurst , a seller from Pinehurst, NC
Julie is the best!! She got us the best tenants and top dollar for our rental home, and did the same when we got ready to sell. We sold over asking and had a smooth closing all because of Julie. She really works for her client and is not afraid to bargain and negotiate.
Josh & Amber, Aberdeen, a seller from Aberdeen, NC
Julie was one of several realtors we contacted in the Moore County area, but she was the only one who reached out to us the same day. We knew she was the real-deal from the time of our first conversation; she's an expert in the area, the current market, and selling a home. She immediately had a plan for advertising and a timeline that would work best for our family.
Throughout the process, she always described in detail the next steps, what would be required of us, and always ensured there would be little-to-no impact on our daily lives.
She brought on a specialist to provide an accurate floor plan and dimensions for advertising, as well as an amazing photographer. I have no doubt that her preparation before going live with our listing contributed to an amazing and seamless sales experience.
Once it was time to sift through the offers (which in the current market, there were many...), she provided us with a comprehensive yet simple spreadsheet to display the key points of all the offers, and walked us through each individual one.
After accepting an offer, she always ensured that we were informed about the state of the transaction and coordinated everything required by the buyer in a way that had no impact on us.
Julie McNicol is not only a top-level agent, but her demeanor and attitude gave us confidence throughout the entire process and is overall an extremely pleasant person to be around! We HIGHLY recommend her to represent you!
Darren Brisson Fayetteville NC, a seller from Fayetteville, NC
Highly recommend Julie McNichol! She was there for us through the entire process and was always available if and when we had questions.
Julie helped my family navigate a stressful sellers market with patience and grace. We viewed dozens of homes before finding our dream home. Julie was considerate to the needs of all members of my family including the children and pets during our home search. She took the time to guide us through writing the perfect offer that won our dream home!
The entire transaction was managed well with clear communication and thoughtful attention to detail. She helped us coordinate tradesmen, utilities and all aspects of setting up our new home. She truly embodies the title of Dream Home Specialist. Julie puts heart into her role as a broker and understands that her clients aren't just looking for a house but a place for their families to call home.
Julie was fantastic! She was thorough and patient and did a beautiful job with the listing that was beyond our expectations. We will recommend her to anyone in need of an agent and will use her again in the future. Julie made the process painless and it was our smoothest transaction yet. Thanks again, Julie!
Elise Van Pool, Aberdeen, NC, a buyer from Aberdeen, NC
Julie was great. Her understanding of our needs and the market was critical. She was super flexible and always easy to get a hold of. It was a pleasure working with her and I would highly recommend her to anyone, especially military families moving to the area.
We thought we knew what we wanted to find in a new house but ended up being a bit scattered. Julie kept us apprised of new listings as they hit the market and really helped us to hone in on what we wanted. Her positive attitude is infectious and she is an expert on the area. I highly recommend working with Julie. She truly helps find your dream home! 2021
Julie was fantastic and we are so glad we met her!! We were buying in Pinehurst from out of town so not in all the time. Julie kept us updated on new listings and even went over to take video of the house we were focused in on. That house ended up being the one and even after we had a signed offer Julie was there for us, willing to go above and beyond. Already referred her to friends who are just as happy. HIGHLY recommend!!!! 2021
Courtney Hedrick, Cameron, a seller from Cameron, NC
Julie was amazing! I will recommend her to anyone and everyone. We will definitely use her again.
Julie is a phenomenal agent! Her work ethic is unmatched. Julie was referred to us by a neighbor. From the first meeting her, all the way to closing, she coached us throughtout the process ensuring we felt comfortable. She is relentless in her pursuit of quality, and her technical abilities are remarkable. We loved her passion for customer service. All of our needs were surpassed. This was our second time selling a home and Julie made the process stress-free. We recommend Julie to anyone. This may be bias, but we think she is the #1 realtor in the Pines!
Julie is awesome and I give her my highest recommendation for your realtor needs. She worked on behalf of my deployed son to find a perfect first house. She navigated communicating with my son in the middle east and me and my wife in California (two countries, 3 time zones) flawlessly--and far beyond a "normal" work day when I would text her at 8 p.m. PST! My wife and flew back to Moore County for two days of house hunting during the holidays where she showed us many houses in the area and helped to narrow down desirable locations and what we were looking for in his house. When we finally found the "perfect" house she helped create the perfect offer that beat out all other interested parties. We wanted an agent that understood the needs of an active duty military officer, a first time home buyer, that would be willing to work with parents out of state and that was genuinely pleasant and easy to work with. We were so grateful and blessed to have her as a Realtor!! Thanks Julie. 2020
Kent Rejholec Fayetteville, NC, a buyer from Fayetteville, NC
After having 3 other realtors. She did what they could not do and that is find me my dream home! She was so professional and helpful in every way. I know when you look for a house it can be stressful but to have Julie as your realtor. She takes the stress away. As a first time home buyer she and Keller Williams Pinehurst took my by the hand every step of the way,. I will be humbly forever grateful to them. Julie is truly 1st class.
Julie did a great job helping me find the perfect home, and I would highly recommend her to my family and friends! She was always accessible, answered every question with ease, was extremely patient, and clearly knows the area and housing market. Julie also helped with navigating the home buying process through the challenges of COVID-19, FaceTiming multiple properties when I could not be present due to the pandemic. I highly recommend her services - you will not be disappointed!
Julie McNicol is an excellent realtor that really cares about her clients. I am a government employee that was transferred from out of state and Julie made every effort to ensure the stressful time was as smooth as possible. Julie comes from a military family and understands how stressful these transfers can be. I could only come to town on weekends to look at houses and Julie never hesitated to give up her weekend in order to make sure we found the perfect home. She was always there for us and made this buying experience as smooth and painless as possible. Through this process she has become a friend and we would recommend her to anyone relocating to the Pinehurst area. Thank you so much Julie!
Nancee Cekuta, Fayetteville , a buyer from Fayetteville, NC
Julie has been an amazing support person In finding resolution through several challenging issues.
Julie has been responsive during the long distance transaction and always made me feel like I was a top priority for her.
Lauren Williams, Baker, Florida , a seller from Pinehurst, NC
As a military family we like to support other military spouses.
Julie is fantastic and responsive. Julie was professional and helpful throughout the process of the sale. She made sure our home looked perfect prior to listing. Julie went above and beyond to help with anything we needed. She even offered to help clean the house. She is knowledgeable and approachable.
Sold quickly, over asking! We couldn't be happier with the sale of our home.
We knew that Julie McNicol was going to be a great fit for us as soon as we met her.
Julie McNicol was willing to go the extra mile for us. My mother was selling the house locally but we were helping from out of state. Julie explained things in simple terms for my mother during the process and kept us up to date on everything as well.
It is a shame that you only have "Excellent" as your highest rating in most of these categories. Julie McNicol is a special person. She started out as our broker but ended up as our friend. This experience was a roller coaster with many highs and lows. Julie rode this emotional coaster with us, we laughed a lot but my mom also cried a few times and Julie was right there with her. My mother couldn't have gone through this process without Julie.
Jennifer Norton (New Jersey), a seller from Pinehurst, NC
Julie McNicol considered all aspects of the sale to move the property as soon as possible. She proposed a sale price that was fair and comparable to market value. She expedited matters by having the house property information listed quickly including photos and a virtual tour with a crafty and catchy description. She created postcards for the neighborhood(s) which helped promote word of mouth. And, Julie, took on other tasks to ensure the readiness for the property exchange/closing given I was out of state. She handled all necessary calls, quotes, scheduled appointments, money deposits and management of individuals that had to enter the home in my absence on behalf of my Father. Julie was personable, professional and prompt during what was a challenging, stressful and emotional situation.
Julie seemed eager and willing to sell the property and/or work with me. When I first contacted her, she rearranged her schedule to meet with me. She is extremely friendly and it was so easy to communicate with throughout the process; especially during negotiations.
Across the board Julie ranked high on her ability to be available, personable, empathetic and a pleasure to work with. These traits were a big contributor to the successful working relationship. She was able to navigate conversation with ease and propose solutions/recommendations when asked while bringing forth information as support. She kept me informed and up to date on matters. I did not have to reach out or reminder her of things as she proactively engaged me and kept things on track and moving along; especially during times which resulted in a need to revisit the plan. She had the end goal in mind for everyone and was the "glue"! It felt like she was really working for us and doing all she could while making it look easy. I highly recommend Julie McNicol to sell or buy your next home!
Hailey and Adam, Southern Pines, a buyer from Southern Pines, NC
Julie was amazing throughout our entire home-buying process. We could not be in Southern Pines during the process of viewing homes and buying our home, but Julie made it easy to view homes from across the country over FaceTime. She handled all of the small details that go into buying a home and made it so easy for us during a stressful time. She was so kind and responded immediately to all of our texts and emails, even with her busy schedule. We could not have asked for a better realtor and we are so grateful for Julie!

Janie and Brock Lynch, California, soon, a buyer from Pinehurst, NC
As a home buyer in Pinehurst NC, we could not have been happier with our agent, Julie McNicol. She was knowledgeable, professional, and negotiated a great deal for us. She stayed on top of everything from beginning to end, helped us find a lender in the area, and went above and beyond to make sure the process was smooth for us. We highly recommend Julie.
Betsy Quilling, had a house in Aberdeen, a seller from Aberdeen, NC
Julie was absolutely fabulous. She was there for all my questions day and night. The house sold quickly because of her input she provided to us. She is supportive and understanding as well as knowledgeable in the real estate world. I know she does her homework. I cannot say enough about her selling my house was easier than buying it.
Julie was amazing. She was patient, assertive, knowledgeable and extremely helpful. Not only was it a breeze working with her, it was a pleasure. Julie made sure we felt heard and made sure to inform us if we weren't making the right decision. She handles everything, even helped me deal with our lender. It really was just a pleasure having Julie assist us in buying our forever home, and I would absolutely recommend her 100% of the time.
Going to keep it short and sweet as that was my experience and also the amount of time it took from bringing to end. Minimal effort on my part and was advised greatly and taken care of. Definitely recommend her as she knows what she is doing and leaves the work to her. Im really hands off but if you prefer to be apart of every process she is more than willing to let you play apart in the process. Im a military town she is the one you want to represent your house. Whether you are still local or have already moved like me 2019
Michelle Williams, Pinehurst, a seller from Pinehurst, NC
Julie sold my home above asking in just a few days. She did an excellent job!
Julie came highly recommended from some friends of ours. We are a military family, and the fact that she is a military spouse ensured she knew exactly what we were going through. Her familiarity with the area was priceless to us.
It has been many years since we purchased a home, so we asked A LOT of questions about the inspection, repair negotiation, and closing process. Julie was not only patient with us, she also took the time to explain, the way a teacher would,
what each step of the process would entail. We could not have asked for a better experience. Julie truly is the Dream Home Specialist. Not only are we in our dream
home, but working with Julie was a flawless process.
Michelle Williams, Pinehurst, a buyer from Pinehurst, NC
Julie McNicol went above and beyond in helping us with our real estate needs and we would highly recommend her to others. She is knowledgable, patient, understanding and always in your corner!
Julie McNicol did not miss one detail in our transaction. I cannot think of one thing I could suggest that she could improve about her service to her client. I would highly recommend her to anyone embarking on a real estate transaction.
Erik Reifenstahl, Southern Pines, NC, a buyer from Southern Pines, NC
Julie McNicol was wonderful. She took care of us like we were family.
Julie was absolutely fantastic. We were out of state buyers looking to find a short term location before buying. Not only was Julie responsive, helpful, and accommodating, but she was able to setup a live tour of the house we ended up renting for us. In a world where everyone is in a hurry to collect a check, Julie took the time to work with us and make sure we were comfortable with what we needed. 2019
We purchased our home while living in a different state and Julie really took care of us. She was knowledgeable and great at keeping us up to date on what was happening during the purchase of our home. She always made herself available to contact her if we had any questions, even with a time change, she was aware of what was happening, great at explaining anything we did not understand, and just a true professional and lovely person to work with. We will definitely recommend Julie to anyone looking for a real estate agent.
We purchased our home while living out of state with Julie as our agent and she was amazing. She took care of all the things, if we had any questions, she was always available. Julie is knowledgable, professional, and made our house buying experience a great one. We were lucky to have her as our agent. 2019
Julie is an incredible real estate agent. She did so much more than we ever expected. My husband and I were on a quick timeline to find a house that fit our budget and we could rent later. Julie looked through so many houses to find us the perfect one, even looking into projected rental rates. She worked with the selling agent to get us an incredible deal and saw to all of the finishing touches like getting the house professionally cleaned and leaving us a beautiful house warming gift. Julie calmed our nerves and made the process so easy. We're so grateful to have had her through the house buying process. I can't recommend her highly enough! 2019
Julie's level of altruism was beyond what we ever would have expected from a real estate agent. She was available 24/7 and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process even though we were still living across the country. Strongly recommend.
