"Due to business commitments, our daughter was not able to be present during the selection, negotiating, and closing processes which were required to purchase her new home in the Wilmington area. The fact that we were required to act in her behalf created a unique situation for Brett Knowles, his assistant Heather Thompson, and his office staff. All of these representatives responded in a totally professional and competent manner to provide us with the maximum assistance in completing our purchase. Their friendly, courteous, positive, and timely reactions to our special requirements made us right at home in an unfamiliar environment. We were made to feel comfortable and well represented from the beginning to the end of our relationship with Mr. Knowles and his entire organization. We highly recommend Mr. Knowles and his company to anyone wanting real estate assistance from an exceptionally talented, hardworking agent who possesses not only noteworthy professional abilities, but also an outstanding knowledge of the city and a genuine love for the Wilmington Community."

"We have found the real estate service of Brett Knowles to be of the highest quality, value and integrity delivered in a very personable way. He's the best!"
-Darwin & Catherine Newton
"We have nothing but the highest praise for Brett Knowles. We had no thoughts of listing our home with any other real estate company because we knew Coldwell Banker Sea Coast was the best, and Brett would work diligently to get our home sold. That he did! In one week he had a buyer! We would recommend Brett Knowles if anyone has a home or property they want SOLD, not just listed on the market."
-Donna & Wilbur Arnette
"Brett took great initiative in getting my condo as much exposure as possible. It was imperative that it sell quickly...Brett wasted no time. After being listed with another Realtor for 6 months without an offer, Brett produced 2 offers in one day, after only having the listing for a month. Less than four weeks later, the cash was in my hand! Brett was also very easy to work with, and I highly recommend him to anyone."
-Dirk Smith
"Brett listened to what we had to say. We had previously looked at property through other agents. Brett did not waste my time. I think he is an excellent agent."
-Lynda Olle

"It was a pleasure working with Brett Knowles and Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Realty. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable on the entire area. He went beyond the "call of duty" by working hard while I was both here and overseas, even calling me a number of times overseas to close on the house. I felt fortunate to have found such a great agent! Thanks!"

-Greg Horne
"We needed to sell our home quickly due to relocation. Brett was very knowledgeable of the market and at what price he thought our house would sell. We were able to get our house under contract within 2 weeks and close quickly there after. I feel like I got more than my money's worth through market knowledge and support from Brett and his staff. I would enthusiastically recommend Brett and Coldwell Banker Sea Coast to my friends and family"

"Kathy and I would like to thank you for helping in selling our house. Being 2,500 miles away in Utah and never having met you, we put a lot of trust in you-and were not disappointed. You kept us well informed and did an excellent job of finding potential buyers - four offers in 6 months is quite a bit better than the single offer in 9 months delivered by one of your Wilmington competitors."
- Peter Kalish
"I just wanted to add my thanks, as well. It was refreshing to be dealt with as an intelligent partner throughout the process, instead of an added housewife who couldn't do anything without her husband. You were terrific about keeping me informed and soothing my fraying nerves across the country. Best wishes."

"This house was purchased 4 years ago as rental property. Brett was the selling agent and he compiled a list of homes that met our requirements, showed them, and completed the sale. He was most helpful. When we decided to sell we called Brett. He gave his recommendations for repairs and upgrades.

"Brett told me what he thought my house was worth and why, and stuck to his assessment even though it took 8 months of persistence and consistent showings, open houses and advertising through multiple venues. Brett explained that it was a tough market and that my home was priced correctly. He never pressured us to lower the price, in fact, he encouraged us not to. He knows the business well and has earned my trust. He bent over backwards to help our negotiations conclude in a sale. We came close and he closed the deal! We were glad to use Brett to represent us in finding and building our new home as well. Thanks Brett!!"

"Brett- I want you to know how much I appreciated everything you and your staff did during the process of selling my home. After my first and very disappointing experience with another real estate agent in town, you restored my faith in the real estate industry. First, the presentation you made of my home during our initial meeting was very professional. Second, I could sense your dedication to selling my home. Third, I knew my home would get all the possible exposure in the market necessary to sell it in timely manner. In addition, your assistant Heather Thompson, is a tremendous asset to your team. She was always available to address any questions or concerns I had. Also, she always kept me informed as to what was happening during the selling and closing processes. Please let her know how much she is appreciated. Thank you for a very positive experience in the selling of my home. I would certainly recommend you to anyone who is in need of a real estate agent. A heart felt thank you."

Brett worked all day Dec. 27th to make sure the deal would go through for the closing on Dec. 28th (problem with the Seller). He was always there to answer any questions!"
