Frances listed and showed my property, helping me price it right and get the most value out of it. It sold in just a few months and we got our asking price. I would highly recommend her to anyone selling in her area.

The best! She walked us through each step and was always available for questions. Her sales experience and knowledge was exceptional as well as advertising and selling the property.

Frances is so good! She makes sure every step of the process is on time and ready! She did everything she said she would. We would highly recommend her and her team! 5 Stars!

I originally approached Frances about 6 months ago to discuss the market for renting vs owning. She gave me some keen insight. 6 months later I decided to list and we reconnected.... she referred to her notes from our original conversation immediately and I knew she was a PRO! She is responsive, collaborative, and knowledgeable. This was my sixth real estate transaction and she is the best!!!

This is the second time we have used Frances in the selling of our home. From start to finish she was very responsive, candid, provided great feedback, helped explain clearly all details and managed the actual sale negotiation brilliantly. She was extremely responsive to every one of our questions, no matter how small. We knew as we moved forward with buying a new house we wanted to partner with her again and have her help navigate us in the right direction. She is truly the best. She knows how to get the job done.

Great agent to have on your side. Was with me every step of the way and the communication was great. Even checked on the house right after a hurricane went to make sure it had survived. Had a email after the contract was signed that explained all the steps necessary for closing. Worked hard to get the deal closed after a couple issues poped up last minute. Would definitely use her again.

Frances was wonderful to work with. She provided outstanding expertise and guidance in our purchase of our property on Ocean Isle Beach NC. I highly recommend Frances Warner Real Estate Group for your next purchase on the Southern Coastal Area of North Carolina.

Frances helped us look for property several years ago and we remembered that she was very knowledgeable and great to work with, so we contacted her about listing our property recently. She gave us excellent advice, listed it, and brought us an offer the next day! She smoothed over the bumps along the way to closing. We could not be more pleased!

Frances Warner is the best real estate in the area, hands down. She is experienced, knowledgeable, caring, and 100% professional. She looked out for my best interests throughout the entire process, and was right there with me the whole way, even at closing. I highly recommend Frances to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. You can't go wrong!

Frances was a tremendous asset during the sale of our home. From our initial conversation about pricing, timing and marketing ideas through the closing, she was a true professional. Her knowledge of the market was invaluable during the negotiation process and she really helped guide me to make the best decisions regarding feedback on the inspection and appraisal. Also, she has a wonderful office staff who helped keep up with all of the details associated with selling a high-end, oceanfront property. I highly recommend Frances and her team to anyone thinking about selling or buying a house in Ocean Isle Beach!

We were lucky to find Frances Warner when we began the process of selling our rental property! She worked for us from Day 1 until the final document was signed, and beyond! Frances is a top producer on the island & it is easy to understand why given her responsiveness, professionalism and work ethic. We were able to close on our sale in less than 90 days after listing with Frances. Highly recommend!
07/09/2018 - djtoal
Frances and her team are top notch. Every aspect of our property sale was taken care of with care and professionalism. Francis is a top real-estate performer for OIB - and you can tell why when working with her. Very satisfied with the results and will use Francis and her team in the future.
07/09/2018 - chrischeek02
We have bought and sold 6 homes in 4 states and the purchase process of our vacation home at Ocean Isle Beach with Frances Warner was the best experience so far..by far! Frances was a true advocate for us, her clients. She and her team lead us through the
entire closing process to include the mortgage and insurance nuances associated with an oceanfront home. I would HIGHLY recommend Frances and her team!
07/01/2018 - Michelle Dewitt
The most agonizing and stressful experience we have ever had in selling a home
Doesn't Listen!
Ignores criticism, doesn't apologize for mistakes
Does NOT work in the customers interest
Primary concern is maintainence of a high sales record
This is just a taste of the 90 day ordeal
Read ratings on OIB Coldwell Banker site
We didn't and we paid dearly
Wow - I have had 84 reviews with 5 stars (one review with 4.5 stars) and out of all of these reviews, I have this one with a rating of "one". As we all know, you can't please everyone!! I believe my sales record shows that I am doing something right. I wish these clients the best as they move on to the next chapter of their life. My reviews below speak for my record.
06/04/2018 - stblaise5
Frances was consistently updating us on all matters. The house was shown almost every day, sometimes more than once a day. She is very personable and caring.; we felt that she was working for us as a friend. The final sale price was exactly as she predicted. Working with her selling our fifty year old beach house was a pleasure.

Kathy was amazing. I had made a decision to purchase a home in the area quickly, and she truly was the best thing I could have wished for in a realtor. Professional, knowledgeable, honest and helpful (not to mention kind and a joy to work with), she understood my needs and price range from the get-go and was extremely helpful in finding a home that is perfect for me in an area I absolutely love! She directed me to other sources needed in the process which helped make the entire process smooth, quick and efficient. I can't wait to come home every day! Thank you, Kathy! I love love LOVE my new home in Calabash!

Francis is a real pro and handled everything from offer to closing while we were on a cruise in the Indian Ocean 12,000 miles away and largely out of touch. We highly recommend her!
03/14/2018 - jr0KI
We couldn't have been happier with the service that Frances Warner provided us, pre and post, the purchase of our home. There is a reason various website rated her so high - Frances is simply the best in the business. Day, night, weekends - she was looking out for us. We would work with her again in a heart beat!
03/12/2018 - paulaqureshi
Shakil and I can not say enough great things about Frances and the whole team. Frances was always available day and night. Her assistant, Sharon was also very responsive and always prompt in her communication. Barbara was so helpful, especially with fishing tips.
03/02/2018 - jfrosemond
Frances and her team worked closely with us to understand all of our needs and tailored their actions to assure that they were met. She assisted us in preparing the unit for sale by managing contractors and assuring that everything was prepared for showing and eventually our closing. Her team did a great job in marketing the unit as was evidenced by a very high volume of showings. The communication level kept us well-informed the throughout the entire process and gave us great peace of mind.
02/07/2018 - swarner0025
I signed with Frances because she was professional and knowlegable.
She was realistic throughout the process. She followed up regularly and gave good, current information.
01/07/2018 - loronlyne7
Frances is by far the best real estate agent we have ever dealt with.
She was professional, knowledgeable and hard working. She made the process easy from beginning to end. We would definitely recommend Frances to anyone looking for a home in the OIB area!
10/26/2017 - gfhenley
Frances Warner is the consummate professional. She has a wealth of knowledge concerning the market and is just an all around nice person. We have both listed a home(5 years ago) and more recently bought a lot with Frances' help. She sold our beach house in a week's time! Wow!
Frances makes the craziness of buying and selling your home an enjoyable experience. I am honored to recommend Frances Warner.
10/23/2017 - leebollinger6
Frances worked extremely hard to sell our house. Beautiful promotion from day one. She was always available and responsive. She gives straight advice with an upbeat attitude. She earned every penny of her commission. Her support staff is first rate. Her Christian integrity is priceless. Glad she and her staff were in our corner. Thanks Frances and staff!!!

Frances has handled a home purchase for us and. Home sale for us. She is a top notch realtor who is knowledgeable, trustworthy and works extremely hard! I would highly recommend Francis with all your needs!
10/18/2017 - gpdhionis
I initially had another realtor/broker assigned to sell my beach home. One year later it was still on the market. I changed to Frances and she was able to sell the property in a very short period of time. One note- Frances and her office were in constant contact with me. I highly recommend her she was terrific!
10/04/2017 - ewadinger
Frances seems to be a highly capable and considerate realtor. She provided us with all the information that we needed and explicitly described all of the forms needed to complete our home purchase.
10/02/2017 - user02817405
Frances was excellent. She is extremely knowledgeable and worked very hard to find a house that served our needs. When my wife couldn't travel after a medical procedure, Frances allowed us to keep searching for the right house by going to houses and touring them while we joined remotely using face-time. What great service!
She also walked us through every step of the process and provided very helpful suggestions and recommendations and the necessary documentation that we needed. Her service was fantastic and she is so nice and easy to work with. My wife and I highly recommend her!
10/01/2017 - jbyers6204
She provide excellent advice on direction of purchasing certain homes and property and walked the line of supporting an interest vs steering away Very good with negotiating and dealing with issues. Also exceptionally responsive to inquiries and questions.

Outstanding realtor. Friendly, knowledgeable, thoughtful and effective in the sale of my home. She is a great communicator, well known in the region and a can do realtor. Her support staff are also very helpful.
09/14/2017 - bdkbdorr
Frances recently listed and sold our home. She was tireless and treated us like selling our home was her most important priority. She as been the top selling agent for a number of years. She came to us with a database of potential buyers, was very knowledgeable of the market and the island. She followed up quickly after every showing, evidenced strong organizational skills. She used a coming soon video on her facebook page which had significant interest before the sign every went up in the yard! If you are looking for a diligent agent who is focused on selling your home for top price, Frances should be the agent that you call!
08/25/2017 - cautry57
Frances Warner spent time with us over the phone understanding our needs for purchasing a second home. She then provided us with an app that would give us updates on homes that either came up for sale or had a change in price. Since we did not live in the area, she provided a video walk through of the 1-2 houses that we liked. Upon our visit to the OIB area, she took us around to those houses where she provided supporting information about the area around each house. Finally, she provided a summary book of ask and sold pricing and house features to help us in the negotiation on our selected property.
06/08/2017 - stevegore
Frances is very professional and researches the property to maximize the value. She is a masterful negotiator and knows her market. I would recommend her to anyone who has a property to sell.
05/29/2017 - jthrift
Frances did a beautiful job of listing our house, making it extremely attractive to buyers. She carried us through the closing process, attending to every detail. We would recommend her to anyone wanting to sell a home in this area.
05/24/2017 - gstrickland72
Frances has extensive knowledge of the market. Was very helpful in helping me with my negotiations with the buyer. She helped me hold firm in the process
05/14/2017 - user79391367
Frances was wonderfull to work with. Always available and ready to help, as I had many questions while buying my first house. She knows the area very well.
03/15/2017 - lia396
. Frances is the only real estate person that I would ever use. She is the very best , so if you want results go with the best, and that is Frances Warner.
Frances not only sold our home, but responded to all our needs
as absentee owners, and handled all the many unexpected problems
as they developed quickly and efficiently.
In short, Frances was not only like an old and trusted friend, she
was like a Loving caring family member.
Gives Frances Warner, the highest recommendation possible !
03/07/2017 - Bill Marcella
Would you believe that (over the last seven years) my husband and I have purchased: not one, not two, not three but FOUR beach properties with Frances Warner's (and her support team!) assistance and guidance?! That speaks volumes for her repeat and loyal clientele. We are honored and privileged to call Frances Warner our personal realtor in OIB. She gets the job done!
03/07/2017 - mholoman4
We have worked with Frances on several properties. She knows the area, and works hard to make you happy with your buying or selling experience. A top notch professional, we highly recommend her.
02/15/2017 - robvanbrederode
I have purchased 3 properties on Ocean Isle Beach through Frances Warner over the past 4 years. Prior to any of the purchases, I worked with her for 2 years trying to locate "the right property". We now refer our friends that are also real estate investors to her. She is very savvy about the local market, and has helped me find the right investment property for the right price. I have appreciated her negotiation skills, and feel that I would never use a different realtor to buy a property in her area.

We've bought and sold many houses over the years. More often than not, the process can be frustrating. Our current purchase on OIB was just the opposite, primarily because of Frances. Frances was tireless and professional in working with both us and the sellers to help make our dream a reality. She was great on follow up and communicating each step, while keeping us informed throughout. She has solid knowledge of the market trends, the area, and has built great relationships with all folks involved (lenders, inspectors, contractors, etc). It helped make the process go smoothly and made the experience a pleasant one. We've been in our new place for a couple of months and Frances still stays in contact to see how things are going. Bottom line, our relationship didn't end once the sale closed. Thank you, Frances

Frances has helped us sell two OIB homes and purchase one. She is responsive and knowledgeable about OIB sales. She assisted us with warranties and repairs. I highly recommend her.

Frances brings integrity, trust and a wealth of information to the table. Our search for a beach property spanned a year(!), but she was very patient with us, kept us informed on the market, and was always available as we sorted thru opportunities. Even as we zeroed in on our ultimate property, she never pushed a sale. She brought 20+ years of experience and a host of specialist to bear to help us work through questions. She was there every step of the way thru the negotiation and close. Her contacts in that respect made it one of the smoothest closes we've ever experienced. Throughout, I always felt I could trust Frances; that she had our best interests at heart. She repeatedly said her goal was to make sure we were happy with our decision and never pushed for a sale. How refreshing! I would urge anyone looking at property on Ocean Isle to call Frances. She is all you will need!
08/18/2016 - millright2
Very prompt and detail oriented. Our property was on zillow within 24 hours of listing. All paperwork ready and available on-line within hours of notification. Frances made selling our house a pleasure.
06/08/2016 - zuser20140623192536132
Frances was extremely helpful as we were buyers from out of town. She answered phone calls and worked diligently throughout all hours of the day and evening. She negotiated very strongly and got us a great deal under market value. I have bought 5 homes throughout the country and she was the best agent I have had the privilege of working with. I strongly encourage any potential buyers or sellers to call Frances first…you will not be disappointed. Thanks Frances for all of your hard work.

We loved working with Frances! She is easy to get along with and a great negotiator. We have some experience in buying and selling homes and this was a great experience despite some problems with sellers along the way. It took a few tries to get the right deal but Frances never gave up on us!Frances was helpful, friendly and very knowledgeable. We'd work with her again any time!
