Get to Know Irene Gaye

Born and raised in Boston, I lived in West Africa for more than 16 years with my husband and son before we returned to Chapel Hill.  I've worked for more than 20 years in accounting and financial management and have strong administrative skills.  My goals as a Real Estate Agent is to understand the most important assets of my job; which are the clients.  Meeting their needs and guiding them through the buying or selling process is the most integral component of my daily routine.

Activities in the Triangle community include my position as Treasurer on the Board of Directors for Haw Bridge High School, a Board Member of the locally based international fundraiser BAMP providing malaria prophylactics to Durham's sister city in Linguere, Senegal, and took part in the set-up of the accounting system for the Durham-based Forests of the World Foundation.  I am particularly proud of my work as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Africa, serving in Congo and Senegal.   I love walking the Greenways, especially Battle Park where I've participated in "Saving Battle Park" from being paved - or you might find me cranking up the heat dancing to salsa music.

 

My diverse background and experience, complemented by HPW training and sophisticated multi-media marketing tools, help me provide the highest standard of performance.  I am considered an excellent organizer, have excellent communication skills in both English and French.  My clients can be assured of my dedication, thoughtfulness, and professionalism throughout the process of buying or selling a home.  If you want an agent who will take time to help understand and meet your needs, utilizes leading edge internet technology and marketing tools, provides buyers up-to-minute listing info and offers sellers maximum exposure marketing their homes to stand out,  call me today and let's begin!

I had an outstanding experience working with Irene! I am a first-time homebuyer interested in relocating to Chapel Hill. With less than 24 hours notice of my visit, she volunteered to meet me early on a Saturday morning to search listings and view properties. She exceeded my expectations. Our meeting began with her educating me on the home buying process, followed by her sharing a wealth of knowledge about living in Chapel Hill and the Triangle area - including cultural and social activities, business, career and educational opportunities, and other attractions. I felt comfortable with her right away. She gave me a tour around the UNC campus and downtown Chapel Hill, then showed me a few communities. The last one we visited was a beautiful new community where we spent a lot of time touring their models and specs, which I loved. It was immediately clear Irene paid attention and understood what's important to me in a home. I lost track of time because I was so focused on the homes tour and asking the builder so many questions, we never even made it to lunch. Irene asked great questions on my behalf. Late into the afternoon, the whole Saturday spent, we (I) finally called it a day. I truly appreciated Irene's patience, guidance and felt very well taken care of in her capable hands. I have since put plans to relocate on hold; however, Irene stays in touch and follows up from time to time. Her customer service skills are top-notch. I highly recommend selecting Irene as your realtor.

Irene Gaye is a great realtor because she has a tremendous "grasp" of the market and possesses that intuitive feeling as to what a house is really worth and how well it will sell... in addition, she always has the facts available to back her up. Irene's knowledge of the housing market gave us great confidence in our purchase, giving us up to date market info was extremely important to us in buying our recently built home... Irene has that perfect balance of knowledge, drive, and enthusiasm that gets the job done.

Irene Gaye possesses the attributes necessary for being an excellent realtor and has my highest recommendation. She knows the local real estate market; she is diligent, responsive, and yet very patient with clients. Irene is both professional and personable and clearly takes pride in doing a great job. In our particular case as a buyer, there were many rough spots on the road to closing and in every instance Irene was a great guide and gave excellent consultation on how to handle each bump easily. It would be hard to envision someone doing a better job. We are very happy that we choose to work with her.

Irene Gaye worked tirelessley with me to find my ideal house, help me make an offer that couldn't be refused and negotiate my way through a completely new buyers system (I'm British). I was so impressed with her ways of helping me identify my pririties, her honesty and respectfulness. I think these qualities are rare in this field. I rate Irene at the top of her profession.
