Industry Experience(Years)
- Nolan of Carolina Plantations Real Estate should be the only agent you should be using if you are buying in the area of Leland, SouthPort, St James, The Bluffs etc. Nolan was extremely honest, very articulate and well versed. He worked well with both sides and made our buying experience very easy. Top ratings to him.
Michael Capobianco
- Nolan Payne from Carolina Plantations Real Estate walked us through the sales process and details of moving to NC from out of state. He was helpful, knowledgeable, patient and timely in answering our questions and finding out answers when needed. No pressure and we never felt rushed. We highly recommend using Nolan to find your dream home or property!

We are so grateful for all of the hard work you've done to not only help us sell our home, but to find our dream home as well. Your professionalism, knowledge, honesty and hard work ethic are much appreciated and respected. You were always available to answer our questions and always went above and beyond.

- It was an absolute pleasure working with Sabrina Williams. Her expertise and knowledge made the selling and buying experience less stressful. She went above and beyond what I believe are the expected duties of a realtor/broker. I will definitely use Sabrina again, and will recommend her to family and friends.
Carol Wormwood
- Pamela Albach was fantastic throughout our home search. She knows the market and communities well and truly helped us fill our martini glass. We are very excited to enjoy our new home and all the amenities in Brunswick Forest. Pamela went above and beyond to help us with the closing and inspections while we were out of town! We cannot thank her enough and have already recommended her to a couple of friends. Thanks Pamela, Sue and Gordon McIntire
Gordon McIntire
- Working with Nancy Boston was an exceptional experience. Her dedication and patience were truly remarkable as she guided us through countless communities, properties, and houses. We were initially unsure of what we were looking for, but Nancy’s expertise and deep knowledge of the market helped us explore all our options with confidence. She took the time to understand our needs and preferences, ensuring that we were well-informed every step of the way. Nancy’s commitment to finding the perfect home for us was evident in her tireless efforts and unwavering support. We couldn't have asked for a better partner in our home search, and we highly recommend Nancy to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and reliable real estate professional."

- We were very lucky to have signed on with Mitch & Sabrina Williams. It was a random phone call from Mitch responding to an inquiry I had put online. We met with him and the 1st thing he said is we shouldn't be looking for a house, we should first look for an AREA. Well, that's what we did. Mitch took us up and down the southern North Carolina coast until we found the area that would soon be our final destination. The amount of effort and time they put into walking us through the process was unbelievable. Mitch & Sabrina were always available to provide us with the information we needed. Every decision that we made, small or big, mattered to them. Obviously, making an informed decision is the most important part of buying a home. But personally, as being “emotionally” invested as well in buying a home, the trust they earned from us made it a simple and confident decision. They were always so candid and provided their own perspective of different aspects of each home that they thought would be relevant to our decision making based on what they had learned about us. I truly appreciated their input and relied on it heavily. This is an invaluable quality to have as a service provider and not everyone has it, but, Mitch & Sabrina do. It’s easy to push paper and get the signatures, but they are really focused on making sure people are satisfied through the process and with the outcome. As you can see, based on the above, Mitch & Sabrina went above and beyond (as I’m positive they do with all of their clients) and truly made us feel like we had a confidant/partner throughout. It truly makes me consider them not just an agent, but a friend. Overall, I would strongly recommend Mitch & Sabrina Williams to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. I would trust them with my eyes closed and their attention to detail and level of time/dedication to their clients is outstanding.

- I can’t recommend Sabrina enough for the wonderful job she did in assisting us in purchasing our new home in Calabash North Carolina. She worked with us for over a year to find the perfect place for me and my two disabled adult sons. She was so great listening to our needs and finding exactly what we needed In a home and a neighborhood. We are now living our best life in Calabash! Thank you Sabrina!
Heather Kane
- Just purchased my first house in North Carolina and what a wonderful experience it was! Pamela Albach did a wonderful job getting me everything that I needed to ensure that the process was seamless and easy. I do not live in the area so this made it a little more challenging. I can say that no matter what I threw at her, she was able to get back to me immediately and everything went through perfectly. If you are looking for property in Brunswick area, look her up. You won't be disappointed.
Dianne Baionno
- We first sought out Carolina Plantations in early February to discuss our goals for finding a retirement home and immediately felt comfortable with Rusty. Our intention was to not even start looking until this upcoming fall until he and Nolan mentioned that there was a lot of new construction in the area and we could possibly find something that would be ready in the fall. We had not even considered a new build, but were open to it and Rusty started sending listings to us for everything in the area so we could get a sense of what was out there. Three weeks later, we found the exact place we wanted on a golf course with a new home that ticked all our boxes just under framing on the lot. It was perfect for us and an incredible deal. We worked with Rusty for the last four months until our closing last week. He did a fantastic job guiding us through the process. We cannot recommend him and the team at Carolina Plantations highly enough—they helped us find our dream home for a new life!
