“Carly was very responsive and hosted multiple open houses. Her photographer took gorgeous pictures showcasing our house.  As out-of-town sellers, we were grateful for her willingness to personally handle all inspections and contract repairs. She helped us through a complicated buyer situation with success.”

“Carly is the best! She showed me several properties, both for investment purposes as well as a primary home (which I just closed on!). I was apologetic about making her see so many that didn't pan out and she did not mind at all. She is an expert on the local AVL real estate scene. She has excellent people skills and answered all my dumb questions with grace, so if you are nervous about the purchasing process, she can guide you through it very smoothly. She's responsive and knowledgeable (and funny!). She cares about more than just making the quick sale and will steer you away from bad properties - she talked me out of pursuing a few that with hindsight would have been poor decisions. She helped me make an offer that got accepted about 25k under appraisal, so she literally helped me start the process with 25k equity. So I definitely have zero complains! She is awesome and if you need a realtor I recommend her 1000%” 

“Carly Esslinger of Town & Mountain Realty recently helped us sell our home of 16 years in Asheville. We knew when we interviewed her that she was our choice. She was quietly thorough both in what she did and how she explained next steps to us. We always felt prepared and supported during this complex process. Our home was sold very quickly, and Carly was ready at every step to keep things moving. Every exchange with her was pleasant, thoughtful, and sometimes even fun. We highly recommend Carly Esslinger and Town & Mountain Realty.”

“Carly Esslinger was our agent, and she was fantastic. We tried working with two other agents before we found her. It was meant to be. She was the only agent who truly listened to our real estate goals and guided us until we were able to find our dream property.”

“Carly is the absolute best! I’m on my 10th house, so I’ve got a little experience, but never had an agent so dedicated to making it happen. Asked for her by name.”

“Absolutely phenomenal experience working with this agency. Buying a home with Carly as our agent was truly one of the smoothest and most enjoyable experiences we could have hoped for. Purchasing a home in North Carolina while living in Florida felt overwhelming at first, but Carly made the entire process feel manageable and surprisingly stress-free. From day one, she was incredibly responsive and proactive, and she always made us feel like we were her priority. No question went unanswered, and she consistently went above and beyond to make sure we felt informed and confident every step of the way. Even from out of state, we never felt disconnected from the process because she communicated so well and handled details with care and professionalism. What stood out most was how personal the experience felt. Carly genuinely advocated for us and made it clear that she was working in our best interest, not just trying to close a deal. That level of trust and dedication is hard to find. If you’re looking for an agent who is knowledgeable, responsive, and truly invested in helping you find the right home, I cannot recommend Carly highly enough. I honestly don’t think you’ll find a better agent. Thank you for making such a major life decision feel exciting instead of stressful.”

“Working with Carly Esslinger was an amazing experience from start to finish. Buying a house can be stressful, but she made the entire process smooth, straightforward, and actually enjoyable. She was always responsive, patient with all of my questions, and genuinely had my best interests in mind every step of the way. What stood out most was her knowledge of the market, attention to detail, and dedication to helping me find the right home — not just any home. She guided me through negotiations, inspections, and closing with professionalism and confidence, and I always felt supported throughout the process. I’m incredibly grateful for all of her hard work and would highly recommend Carly Esslinger to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. You won’t find someone more trustworthy, hardworking, and committed to their clients. She is just absolutely wonderful!” 

“Carly Esslinger worked with us for over a year and a half to help us find the right home. She is competent, patient, hard-working, and resourceful-we highly recommend taking advantage of her expertise! Very happy with our experience with Carly and Town and Mountain Realty. In the future, we will buy and sell with Carly.”

“Carly Esslinger was amazing. She went above and beyond what we expected of a real estate agent. We looked at multiple homes in different areas, and Carly was always willing to travel. When we found the house we loved, she walked us through the process from start to finish. I highly recommend her to anyone interested in purchasing a home. She is very experienced and handled all aspects of the home buying process- from the initial offer, inspections, and closing in a knowledgeable and professional manner.”

“Carly Esslinger did a tremendous job helping us purchase our house. She went above and beyond during the home-buying process, because we not only had limited time to find a home but also had to complete the closing process out of state. She personally went to the property when we could not, and she followed up regularly with other parties to help ensure we closed on time. We also appreciated the time she took to get to know us as a family, and she was awesome with our 3-year-old son. We could not have asked for a better agent to represent us.”
