I arrived in town and had to start a job the next day. I was staying in a motel as I began my employment. Once I started looking for a place to stay, real estate agents came at me like seagulls to a loaf of bread on the beach. Everyone wanted to take me for a ride on Saturday to look for my next home. I told them I just needed to get out of the motel. They wouldn't listen, Julie did. She found an affordable apartment that I could rent while I looked for my home. The apartment complex was set up to help me with the lease, so--when I found my home--I would be able to move without paying an expensive buy-out. Judy listened when others wanted to talk. She helped me with what I needed, when others had their own ideas of what they wanted to help me with.
As my wife and I searched for our home, we came to appreciate Julie's ability to listen to her customer's needs, pay attention to the details, and find those that matched what we needed most. She reads the market extremely well, but, more importantly, she reads the customer well, too.
We went from home to home looking at positives and negatives, and Julie was clear on those. She spotted and noted every red flag along the way. She was a good advisor and counselor to monitor our goals and keep us on track. She paid attention to the details of our wants and needs, so we didn't have to.
We are now more than satisfied with the home we purchased. It was affordable for us, and it met all the criteria for our family's needs, as well as providing the most important bonuses we were looking for, given our budget.
After we moved in, we had an issue with air conditioning, and were weren't getting the service from the home warranty we needed. Julie, long after the time for her services were over, helped us get through that trouble, not only with advice; rather, with immediate intervention not required from her at all. She truly goes the extra mile for the people she serves.
Julie's knowledge of the local Wilmington area market was stellar. She knew the ins and outs of the economics, locations, and amenities of each section of the area we considered. She has the market connections to find everything, and the experience and expertise to sift it out to provide the right places for her customer's to view on site. I don't see how anyone could do a better job for you if you are moving to this area and looking for a home.
You will not be sorry if you choose this person to find your new home for you. I'm certain of that.
My best . . .

when we first used Julie Chappell to purchase our home in Leland NC I drove down from Asheville to see what she could find for us. She spent the better part of the next 17 days taking me to see about 100 homes that would be possibilities, we put in offers on two of them only to find that they had just just gone under contract literally only minutes before we put in our offer. We then found another home that we made an offer on and the seller was very interested in it and we were to get together the next day to finalize everything.. We got a call from the realtor at 9:00 the next morning telling us that the seller had had a severe heart attack the previous evening, was in very serious condition, and could not make a decision for the next 18 days. So, Julie and I start looking at other properties.
We then found another home that was on the market in Brunswick Forest, and we were able to but it.
To say that Julie was patient and determined would be a gross under statement. And despite the long process, she continued to both very kind and very professional. So, 2 years later, when we decided to move to South Carolina, naturally we again called on Julie to represent us in selling the home, which she did in very little time and with her same pleasant and professional demeanor, despite the fact that our neighbor was also a very competent realtor .
Julie is a gem, and we still consider her a friend. Were we ever to come back to North Carolina, Julie would be the first person we would call.
Sincerely,
Danny and Dolly Lester

Julie Chappell was the listing agent for our house/property in a very unique neighborhood in Wilmington, NC. She is definitely a full service agent.
During a very busy post hurricane time, she was able to find us a qualified contractor to handle our repair list and she made sure that all prospective buyers got to know our home as well as our neighborhood.
I would recommend her as your agent for any residential property in the Wilmington/Cape Fear Region.

We found Julie through the USAA homebuying service and we are so thankful we had Julie representing us. We are new to the Wilmington market and once we spoke and she knew what we were looking for she communicated with us almost daily sending us listings that matched our requirements. When we hadn't been able to find anything Julie reached out to her network and found the perfect house for us that had not been listed. Julie is professional, pleasant, knowledgeable and was genuinely happy to find our dream home for us. Highly, Highly recommend Julie Chappell!!!

We were looking to buy and resettle in the Wilmington area from New Hampshire and were connected with Julie by USAA Buyer's Advantage. After a couple of phone chats to give her some ideas on what we were looking for, my wife and adult daughters met up with Julie for the first time on the day after Thanksgiving. I was very impressed right from the beginning with her intuitiveness for what we were looking for and what our budget was. No attempts to sway us to buy higher and all of the homes she showed us that day (6 I think) were possibilities. We found a place and put an offer in that did not materialize. After advice from Julie we moved our search a bit and very slightly upped our budget to 'cast a wider net', but never felt like we were being pushed into anything we didn't want. Flew back down two weeks later for a Saturday afternoon house hunting trip and Julie put us on 3 great houses. We made an offer and have just closed on a beautiful home. Best of all, Julie was a very strong negotiator and provided my wife and I very good advice on the initial offer and negotiating through due diligence. We actually ended up buying more house that we thought we could get, in a great neighborhood with a big lot....for less than our ORIGINAL budget. We found Julie to be a very pleasant person with a lot of style and grace, but also very down to earth and extremely capable with a tough side when it came to our negotiations. We give Julie our highest recommendation. You cannot go wrong with Julie.

Julie was amazing to work with! As first-time homebuyers, my fiance and I had no idea where to start, but Julie really helped us to narrow down what we were looking for, and helped us secure the perfect home! She was always available to answer any questions we had and was super prompt in all her responses! Not only did she have superior knowledge of the areas around town we looked at, she was so knowledgeable about the ins and outs of the homes we viewed. She was there every step of the way, and we are so grateful for all she has helped us with!

I think it takes a special kind of person and skill set to welcome folks that are being relocated. It is an incredibly stressful time when big decisions need to be made and the client needs an enormous amount of information in digestible pieces. Julie is a master at that balance and absolutely glows when she talks about Wilmington. She made the process so much easier and more enjoyable. She really honed in on what we wanted/needed, was incredibly responsive and patient with us, and got us matched to the home of our dreams in no time.

Julie Chappell was extremely knowledgeable of the real estate market in the Wilmington and surrounding area. She was unbelievably patient, efficient, honest, reliable and in touch with us all the way through our house buying experience. We were new to the area. Julie listened to our must have lists and our so so want lists. When we couldn't find a home that fit our family Julie declared, "I will not stop looking for you". We are happy to say we found our house, which is now our home. Julie even helped with an AC situation 4 weeks after we moved into our home. We highly recommend Julie Chappell for your realtor needs. She will get the job done.

It has been a true pleasure working with Julie Chappell. I am a first time home buyer and Julie was patient, knowledgeable and very thorough when explaining all of the different phases of home buying. We started looking at pre-existing homes in March of 2017 and then I decided to go with a developer that built my home. Julie stood by my side through the entire process from reviewing documents, all of the home walk-throughs and closing. We worked together for six months and I could not have done this without her. She is a gem and I highly recommend her to other future home buyers.

I had the great pleasure of meeting Julie when I fell in love with the house that we currently own. She is a very nice, professional, dedicated and above all commited agent. It was my first time buying a house, she guided me thru the whole process, I must say that I wouldnt be owning my house if it wasnt for her. She guided me and stood by me during the house inspection, while I was getting quotes, in the closing checking each and everything I was paying for....she is really wonderful!!! I would recommend her to anyone because eventhough there are really good agents out there, its hard to find a person that has everything in one package. Thank you so much Julie!!
