“We honestly could not have found our dream property without Athena, and we are so grateful she was in our corner every step of the way. From day one, she truly listened to what we wanted and never made us feel like a burden, no matter how many questions we had. What really set her apart was how deeply she knew the property. She came prepared with details we never would have thought to ask about, and that knowledge gave us so much confidence going into the process. Athena also had wonderful relationships with the seller's agent and the closing attorney, which made the whole experience feel seamless and stress-free. You could tell people genuinely respected and trusted her, and that made a real difference when it came time to negotiate and close. If you want a realtor who is knowledgeable, well-connected, patient, and truly invested in finding you the right home and not just any home, Athena is your person. We cannot recommend her enough!”

“From the very first showings, Athena took all the time we needed and knew every aspect of every listing and highlighted the positives of each home expertly. Her knowledge of real estate law is encyclopedic. She was incredibly patient with two seniors who were anxious about the process.”

“Athena is an excellent realtor, very professional, capable, resourceful, responsive, and congenial.  She was thorough in her explanation of legal documents; she has a wide network of supporting staff, including carpenters, inspectors, and attorneys, etc., and she is, above all, highly sensitive to the needs and interests of buyers.  Athena was available whenever we needed a tour of homes or a follow-up, and she is very knowledgeable about the inventory in Western North Carolina. Even more, she has a keen eye for detail and quickly analyzes the potential of a home we are seeing for the first time.  She manages the itinerary and is always very patient when it changes, explaining market conditions and describing neighborhoods as we pass through different communities.  Lastly, Athena is a delightful partner in the real estate journey, which can take several months, and she tries to make it pleasant and agreeable.  She is an exceptional talent.” 

“My agent, Athena, made the entire process easy to understand and kept me updated. She was always one step ahead of the process, and I felt safe the entire way. As a 1st-time buyer, the process seemed endless, and I wouldn't have been able to make it through without Athena holding my hand, answering every call, and talking me through the seller of the ledge more than once. This is my 1st home and probably not my last. I will be recommending both Athena and Town and Mountain to anyone looking to sell or buy a home.”

“This was our second time working with Athena. She helped us buy our home, and when the adjacent vacant property went up for sale, we reached back out. We came up with a plan and waited (a year!) until the price made sense. Athena was right on top of letting us know about the latest price drops, and we were able to make a prompt offer and close quickly. It was a seamless experience, and we are thrilled with the results!”

“We are so grateful we found Athena to guide us through searching for our very first home! She really went above and beyond to accommodate us. She was helpful not only in viewing houses, but she also has a keen eye for spotting potential issues with properties, has great people skills (helpful when having to communicate with listing agents & sellers!), and helped point us in the right direction whenever we had questions about anything related to the very complicated home buying process. Athena also has a wealth of knowledge about programs out there designed to help home buyers make it happen. We will be recommending Athena to all our friends!”

“Athena was a fantastic realtor. She worked with us for over a year before we found our dream property, and we never felt rushed or stepped on. She is extremely kind and respectful, and very informed regarding the area and finding the perfect house. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home in the area, and I will be recommending her to friends and family whenever they start looking!”

“My experiences with Athena have been exceptional. I would never, in a million years, use another realtor. My sentiments towards Lindsay are the same. I trusted both of them and was not disappointed. Absolutely wonderful people and very good at their jobs.”

“It has been a pleasure working with Athena. As a first-time home buyer, I was a bit intimidated by all the aspects of buying my first home. Athena was always available to answer my questions, and her positive, upbeat energy didn’t make the process daunting, but exciting. She is clearly very knowledgeable, making me feel at ease and trusting the process. It was seamless! She didn’t rush me into anything at all, either, which I really appreciated, and then it all came together so smoothly! She provided me with to-do lists, reminders, resources, and support throughout the entire process. Not to mention, she is an amazing human who cares about the community. This, in itself, really made me feel comfortable trusting her. Thank you so much again for being by my side to guide me to this next chapter of my life! ☺️”

“This was not my first real estate transaction - I've worked with a number of realtors in multiple states. Athena Dygert of Town and Mountain really impressed me with her patience, listening skills, persistence, recommendations, and dedication. She drove me to fifteen properties across multiple counties, sent me information on countless more, discussed my needs and desires intelligently, and ultimately found me a house that I'm not just happy in, but actually thrilled about. She was top-notch, fun to work with, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. I recommend her highly!”
