There are not many people you can trust to be your eyes & ears on the ground - but Eric Layne was exactly that for us! As we were living overseas throughout our house hunt - Eric sent his commentary, videos & even entertained our mothers by bringing them along to viewings in search of the perfect home for us. The scary thought of purchasing a home we hadn’t seen in person was mitigated by the strong relationship & trust we had with Eric. Eric knew what our specific needs (and wants!) were, how we would react if we were there in person and exactly what we would love when walking through the front door. We trust Eric whole-heartedly & are so thankful to have the opportunity to have worked with him for our home purchases. Read Less

Eric continues to exceed all expectations and provide the highest level of real estate expertise in this market. Always an absolute pleasure to work with Eric Layne!

I wasn't in a real rush to purchase a home and I told Eric that ahead of time. He spent so much time touring properties with us over the course of several months that I just felt really guilty about how much of his time I was using. That being said, Eric was over-the-top patient and friendly, continued to send me leads even when I would pass on several after visiting them,... Read More

I wasn't in a real rush to purchase a home and I told Eric that ahead of time. He spent so much time touring properties with us over the course of several months that I just felt really guilty about how much of his time I was using. That being said, Eric was over-the-top patient and friendly, continued to send me leads even when I would pass on several after visiting them, and he was quick to say no on a house I was interested in because he thought I could do better... It was like buying a house with a friend and not an agent. He never pressured me into anything. And then when it came time to actually put down an offer, he negotiated a deal that more than paid for himself (ex -- if I had used Redfin to purchase the home, I actually would have paid MORE based on the deal Eric got me). On top of all that, he made recommendations for lenders (who I ended up comparison shopping and finding out that Eric's recommendation had the best rate), inspectors, contractors, and all of the above who all exceeded my expectations. I can honestly say the entire experience was better than I could have ever imagined. We toured so many properties that I'm confident I found the best place for me at a great deal and it's all thanks to Eric. Read Less

Eric did a fantastic job selling our home - within hours of hitting the market, over asking price. We would definitely use him again! He was clear, direct, and professional about what we needed to do to reach our goals; coordinating help in services when we needed it. We would highly recommend Eric Layne!

‐ Julie Balzer; Charlotte NC

Hands down, best agent you’ll have the pleasure of working with! Eric was able to immediately identify problem areas that had previously prevented us from selling our home. Not only that, he was able to use his unique “vision”, professional experience, and vast network to quickly make repairs and ultimately get us top dollar in the sale of our home!

Hands down, best agent you’ll have the pleasure of working with! Eric was able to immediately identify problem areas that had previously prevented us from selling our home.

As first time home buyers, Eric Layne made the whole process very easy. He was responsive to calls/emails, extremely knowledgeable about the surrounding Charlotte area/market and was very patient with us throughout the entire process. He helped us find the perfect home and we could not be more grateful! We would highly recommend Eric to anyone looking to buy a home.

‐ Diana Albert, Charlotte

Given how difficult the process was to close our transaction, without Eric's experience, patience and guidance we would have pulled out of the transaction. He was a consummate professional and re-assuring trusted adviser throughout the process. Thank you Eric!

‐ Jerry Wells, Matthews

Eric has a great understanding of the Charlotte market throughout, which is large and varied. He is also very knowledgeable on the various options available to buyers: new construction, rent, buy and improve etc. Eric is great at considering the current value of a home and the potential value and the cost benefit associated with those decisions.

We have known Eric for over 7 years. We wouldn't trust our business to any other agent. Over those years he has become, not only our agent, but a close friend. Being absentee landlords on this particular property we relied heavily on Eric. From advertising to making sure the property was clean, freshly painted and presentable to prospective customers, open houses, and so much more Eric went far and beyond what you would expect an agent to do. Helen Adams stands for quality, and Eric Layne is the embodiment of that quality. Read Less

‐ Nancy & Richard Hickey, Fairhope, Al

Eric was far and above more knowledgeable than his competitors. We couldn't have found a better realtor. If you're considering "For sale by owner" or considering using a realtor other than Eric, DON'T! I certainly wouldn't want Eric on the other side of the negotiating table.

‐ Meagan and Tyler Risdon, Charlotte

Eric was awesome to work with throughout the entire process, but what really set him apart is that he helped us even after closing. He was willing to recommend and help arrange painters, cleaners, etc. He truly went above and beyond and we trusted him to help us find the right Home.

‐ Laura, Charlotte

We've worked with Eric on past home purchases and he continues to provide excellent customer service as well as incredible market knowledge. Our home was well priced and we received an offer the first day it was on the market. We really appreciate all his hard work!

Eric was extremely helpful as we worked through the process to purchase a new home and sell the old home. The process was as seamless as it could be, understanding things always come up that may be unexpected. We appreciate Eric's diligence and professionalism. I will certainly be referring him to others looking to buy a home.

Marcel and I have been investing in real estate for the past 3 years, during which time we have been guided by Eric Layne. Prior to meeting Eric, we had worked with other agents who had been, frankly, disappointing. Eric worked hard to gain our trust and our business. As a fellow investor, he fully understands what we are looking for and strives to find us suitable properties all the time. We have found him to be deeply committed to providing the best possible service. He is honest, trustworthy and has become a valued friend through our transactions together. There have been times when things have not gone to plan and Eric has always been there to support us and help us deal with whatever the issues are. He works diligently for all his clients and I have had no hesitation in recommending him to others. Eric is not just our agent of choice; he is an integral member of our “Power Team”, helping us to find the right property, negotiating the price, advising on work needed, recommending contractors etc. and ultimately finding a buyer for the property. We could not do this without his help and we appreciate him very much. We hope to work with Eric for many more years to come. Read Less

Without him, we would not have gotten the house we wanted. His help thru the process made it easy and gave us a lot of faith on getting the deal done.

I've even talked with other realtors and when I told them I was working with Eric they all said the same thing..."He's the best out there." I can say that we will refer a TON of business to Eric and use him again if we move or need to get another house in the future. Read Less

I don't believe there is a better real estate agent in Charlotte. Nancy and I have had Eric as our agent since we moved to the Charlotte area in 2010. We have purchase and sold 5 residences and 2 investment properties with Eric's help and expertise. Couldn't have done it without him.
