Clients Share the Love

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars for Asha Hertel! 'I thought my house was actually Asha Hertel’s property!' I blurted this out to Asha one day. She blushed and said, 'Thank you!' And I meant every word. Asha and her wonderful colleagues took exceptional care of my beloved Arts & Crafts bungalow in Asheville, North Carolina, both while I was living there and after I moved to my new city, Austin, Texas. Asha and I weren’t simply a real estate agent and her client. We were teammates, working together to sell my bungalow. I chose the initial asking price, and Asha was my trusted advisor throughout the entire journey. She respected my decisions, offered her professional wisdom, and never lost sight of our shared goal. When negotiations became tough, Asha and her team never wavered under pressure from the buyer’s real estate agent. We stood shoulder to shoulder, locked arms, and held our ground! What I appreciated most was that Asha never treated my bungalow as just another property listing. She cared for it as though it were her own home. Asha Hertel is not only an outstanding real estate agent but also a wonderful friend. Five out of five stars! I couldn’t recommend her more highly." 

“I had such a wonderful experience selling my home with Asha. She expertly priced, listed, and managed the sale of the home where I raised my children. I appreciate the way she coached me through the entire process and the way she was able to talk me through any concerns I had during the process. We listed for more than I thought it would list for, and it was under contract in 3 days. I highly recommend her to be your agent."

"We just bought our first house, and we genuinely couldn't have done it without Asha. From our very first meeting all the way through to the days after closing, Asha was clear, responsive, supportive, and thoughtful. As first-time buyers, her guidance around the logistics, as well as what to look for in a new home, was invaluable. We were especially appreciative of how she took note of what was most important to us during the due diligence process and worked quickly with trusted professionals to address any issues. Not only did she go above and beyond for us, but she is an absolute dream to work with – she made this potentially stressful process fun. We would recommend Asha to anyone in the Asheville area looking to buy a house!"

“Asha and Jessica were wonderful and so helpful. Cannot recommend enough!”

“Asha was wonderful to work with. Asha's breadth of knowledge is phenomenal. From advising on structural and drainage issues to identifying local plants for our son, her expertise was invaluable. She was our confidant, negotiator, and friend over the weeks we worked with her. I'm sad I'm only able to buy one house; otherwise, I'd do it all over again tomorrow. A fantastic experience.”

“It is an honor to write this testimonial for Asha Hertel. Asha recently represented my husband and me in the purchase of a historic home in Montford, and subsequently with the sale of our home in Montford. After working in the real estate and legal fields for over thirty years, I can truly say that I have not met anyone who comes close to Asha in terms of her knowledge, support, responsiveness, acumen, and reliability. Asha is incredibly professional, smart, and supportive. She was available at all hours to answer questions, solve problems, and guide us through every step of what could have been a very stressful process. I credit her guidance and market reputation with securing our purchase of a unique and beautiful historic home that had multiple offers. Likewise, her impeccable staging, marketing savvy, and pricing strategy directly resulted in the expeditious sale of our existing home, including multiple offers and a contract the first week it went on the market. Even when an unexpected and thorny circumstance arose, she remained eminently calm, positive, and completely focused on finding solutions. Equally impressive is her depth of knowledge. She understood the inspection process inside and out, often catching details herself and even conducting independent assessments and boots-on-the-ground inspections to ensure nothing was overlooked. She is definitely not afraid to literally get her hands dirty. She also has an exceptional understanding of the Asheville market, especially Montford, and her relationships with inspectors, contractors, attorneys, and other professionals made every step of the transaction smoother. Beyond her expertise, Asha is simply a joy to work with. Her optimism, can-do attitude, and genuine commitment to her clients made each and every interaction a positive one. We always felt that she was advocating for our best interests and going above and beyond what we could have expected from a real estate agent. If you’re buying or selling a home in Montford—or anywhere in Asheville—we cannot recommend Asha Hertel highly enough. She is exceptional, and we were, and remain, incredibly grateful to have had her by our side for both transactions. Should anyone wish to discuss her qualifications, we would be happy for Asha to provide our contact information as references."

“Asha is great to work with. Knowledgeable, attentive, and very responsive. She is an all-around great person. For any future property transactions in WNC, we’ll be using Asha without a doubt.”

“Town and Mountain Realty is great to work with. Asha Hertel was a fantastic agent for us throughout a very lengthy search and a supportive partner as we navigated a few hiccups along the way. She is a good communicator and works hard to leverage her extensive network of real estate and related service professionals. Asha and the rest of the team at Town & Mountain are highly recommended if you need real estate expertise.”

“Asha is the best! You can tell she loves her job. She is a wealth of knowledge, has a great personality, and a positive attitude!”
