Nate Kelly Asheville, NC Real Estate Agent Headshot

Nate Kelly

As a proud native of Western North Carolina, I not only sell homes but also share in the love for this unique and diverse region. From the vibrant arts and culture scene to the breathtaking outdoor adventures, I am not just your REALTOR®; I'm your local guide. My goal is to make your real estate experience seamless and enjoyable, leveraging my extensive network and market knowledge. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer, a seasoned investor, or looking to sell your home, I am dedicated to achieving your goals and exceeding your expectations. Let's embark on this exciting journey together. Trust me to be your dedicated partner in navigating the real estate landscape of this magical place we call home.
 
Growing up in Asheville, I have had the pleasure of watching our quaint mountain town grow into the haven that it is today. 
 
In my early 20's I was lucky to work under some great general contractors to assist them in building and remodeling a number of homes in the area. I also had the experience of working for a local nursery where I became enamored with all the amazing fonta or flora we have in these mountains and learned basic landscape architecture. 
 
After my stint in manual labor, I then transitioned into the service industry, where I spent the next 15+ years of my life. I was very privileged to work with some amazing chefs and restaurants, including Usual Suspects, Cafe Azalea, Simple Cafe & Juice Bar, and The Grey Eagle Taqueria. I also have been a small business owner opening one of the first food trucks in town, "The Lowdown", where we helped develop the first food truck court in Asheville, vended at many local festivals, i.e., Moogfest, LAAF, Bele Chere, Big Crafty, etc., and catered numerous events.
 
In 2018, I was definitely thrown a curveball. After developing some vision issues, I was sent in for an MRI, where the doctors discovered a softball-sized tumor in my frontal lobe. After a 13-hour procedure and an amazing surgeon, it was removed, thankfully determined to be benign, and I was able to make a full recovery, sans my sense of smell. 
 
After such a life-changing experience, I decided to re-evaluate my life and decided to pursue a career I had always wanted to pursue. It has been one of the best decisions of my life, and I love helping people in all aspects of real estate. In my free time, I love working in the yard, preparing meals for loved ones, bowling, watching sports, and spending time with my family, Cynthia (wife), Hobbs (son), Sawyer (daughter), and Otis the dog. 
 
Let me know how I can assist you with your real estate goals!

"Working with Nate was a wonderful experience. Being from Asheville, he knows the ins and outs of the city and every neighborhood. We worked together for months through many starts and stops, and he genuinely cared about helping me find a home that was right for me. When I finally secured a house that ended up being a challenging transaction, he went above and beyond to see it through to the finish line. I can't thank him enough and would highly recommend working with him. A gem!"

"Nate helped me buy a duplex in swanannoa and was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. He is very punctual, responsive, and communicative. He was super helpful in making an offer that got accepted and then negotiating down once some unexpected things came up in the inspection. Nate is the type of guy who truly wants to see people succeed and isn't just chasing a commission check. I will happily come back to Nate for any future properties I buy and would recommend him to anyone!"

We sure know that Nate is not only our real estate agent, he is our friend!"

"Incredible from start to finish. We were paired with Nate via Zillow, but little did we know we were about to be paired with the best realtor in the Asheville area. We were on a tight budget and saw a lot of properties with Nate that just weren’t right for us. When we finally found the place for us, we all knew it. The process was seamless and we closed in 30 days. Me and my family highly recommend Nate, he won’t let you down and genuinely loves his job helping others."

"My husband, Jack, and I were connected with Nate through a housing app, and could not have lucked out more. We were searching for a home from afar, and Nate did an amazing job of checking out houses and filming them for us. His videos were so detailed we felt like we were seeing the homes alongside him. Nate was always so quick to check out a home for us and was incredibly responsive. He answered all of our questions, gave excellent advice and negotiated in a way that allowed our first offer to be accepted! The overwhelming process of finding a home was way better with Nate because of his expertise, advocacy, knowledge, and kindness! Everyone should go with Nate!"

"As a seasoned realtor in Florida with over 30 years of experience, I am thrilled to share our outstanding vacation home buying experience with Nate Kelly from Town and Mountain Realty. Our journey with Nate began after being referred by Cindy Viehman of Tryon Foothill Realty. Within just three days of our initial conversation, I traveled to Asheville, where Nate showcased five incredible properties. It became clear to me that if we were to make a purchase in Asheville, Nate was the only agent I could trust. His professionalism, warmth, extensive real estate knowledge, and thorough understanding of the Asheville area were truly refreshing. Despite facing nearly 4 months and 3 rejected offers, Nate remained unwavering and kept our belief in the virtue of patience alive. Eventually, we found the property of our dreams and were under contract within 48 hours. Nate’s exceptional service to us as out-of-town buyers extended well beyond this point. He was instrumental in recommending a reliable real estate attorney, insurance agent, and home inspector for our closing. Additionally, Nate worked tirelessly with condominium management and board officers to address a few deficiencies prior to our closing. Throughout the entire process, I was thoroughly impressed with Nate. His promptness in addressing my queries, wealth of knowledge, and genuine concern for my best interests truly set him apart. The level of service we received from Nate throughout the entire journey was exceptional. It was evident that Nate genuinely cared about me and my concerns during the home buying process. Our experience was truly phenomenal, and I wholeheartedly recommend Nate Kelly and his team at Town and Mountain Realty in Asheville."

"Hurricane Helene hit in the very beginning of our closing process, and it was a very chaotic or confusing time in the area in general, but Nate guided us through everything brilliantly and did an amazing job closing and getting everything with the house checked out, even though it was harder than usual to source quotes. We were first-time home buyers and he did a great job explaining all aspects of the buying process to us clearly, helping us with all of our questions, and connecting us with other great vendors so that the due diligence period and closing process was as seamless as possible. He has extensive knowledge in construction or engineering and a great sense of humor, and was super kind and patient with us as we visited houses and figured out exactly what we were looking for. We both highly recommend working with him and his team!"

"Nate is a dear friend and a natural at what he does. I couldn’t have had a better experience and I’d put 6 stars for responsiveness if I could. I’m sure I asked him to do things that weren’t technically part of his job description but he enthusiastically helped out just because he knows the ins and outs of the biz and I don’t. Thanks Nate!"
