About Travis
Builder's Precision. Broker's Judgment.
I work Northeast NC — Currituck, Camden, Pasquotank, Chowan, Bertie, Hertford, Gates, and now Martin County — and I write these buyer's briefs in the evenings because I got tired of sending out-of-town buyers long emails about what a place is actually like to live in, and started writing it down instead.
Martin County is a different animal than the coastal counties I usually cover. It's rural and affordable, but it's also a genuine regional hub — the Senator Bob Martin Eastern Agricultural Center and Martin Community College's equine program make it a real destination for land, farm, and horse-property buyers who've been priced out of that kind of acreage everywhere else. Williamston sits right at the US-17/US-64 crossroads on the Roanoke River, with a manufacturing base and a walkable downtown. This site is built around those three buyer types, honestly, without pretending the market is something it isn't.
I'm a licensed NC Real Estate Broker (#334264) and a licensed NC General Contractor (#99504), which matters here more than most places — a lot of this county's housing stock, from Williamston's older homes to farm outbuildings, benefits from someone who can look at a structure and tell you what it will actually cost to fix, not just whether it appraises.
Skip the contact form if you'd rather just call — my number sits at the top of every page, and texting usually beats waiting on an email back. Every chapter here stays open to read whether or not you ever hire me.

What Clients Say
We were introduced to Travis through a friend and we're thankful that we got to work with him on our search and ultimate finding of our new home. Travis is a wealth of knowledge about the area and shared lots of information with us during our search that helped us in finding the right house for our family. He made appointments for the houses we wanted to see and showed us several he had found so we could compare different areas and styles. He was very patient with us and all of our questions. He shared his knowledge and suggestions in every house that we viewed. He is very responsive with his communication and willing to take the time to talk through our questions and concerns during the day, at night or on the weekends. Once we chose our house he worked closely with the selling agent and the mortgage company to keep the process moving along smoothly. We truly enjoyed our time with Travis looking at all the different houses and purchasing our home in our new hometown. He's the best and we would confidently recommend him to anyone that is looking for a house.
