Steven & Luanne S.Buyer·November 2026★★★★★I discovered Bailey through a friend. I simply asked him if he knew a really good real estate agent to help us re-locate to the area since we weren't too familiar with Catawba County. He said Bailey Breen is your "go to". Since we had to sell our home in eastern NC, we just scoured the real estate apps in the meantime. Our home sold and literally the day after we closed, a house listing showed up in Catawba County that we were very interested in. I already knew that good properties go fast in this county and we had to act fast. I immediately contacted Bailey and this is where his expertise, local knowledge and experience kicked in. Because he was so highly recommended by my friend, I told Bailey that my wife wants this house and I turned over the steering wheel to him. He immediately went to work on our behalf. His communication with us every step of the way was amazing. On day 2, I called my friend and said where did you find Bailey, he's like a well oiled machine, we are super impressed. To cut the story a little shorter, we had an accepted offer by day 4 and we even had a late show prospective buyer and had to compete with another offer by them We discovered we were in a "bring your best offer" situation around 7:30 on the final night. He guided us through this process which I admit, was a little nerve racking. We had already made visits to the house and my wife was really wanting this home. Bailey advised me how to handle this situation and at 9:30 he called to congratulate us, they accepted our offer. The rest is history. We are moved in and we are extremely happy. Bailey didn't just stop at the sale, he also arranged a couple repair visits for me to handle some minor issues. Bailey Breen is the best Realtor I've ever dealt with, hands down. This was the smoothest home purchase I've ever made. I have thanked him personally many times but let this review also serve as my personal thank you to Bailey Breen and all you did for my family.
Paul & Celeste Smith★★★★★October 2026Bailey understands the market. He was extremely patient with us in finding the right house. He continued to keep us in formed throughout the whole process. He truly went the extra mile.
Bill★★★★★October 2026Bailey is always willing to go the extra mile. Honest, timely, courteous, tactful and professional.
Kris and Sarah Patton★★★★★October 2026From start to finish, Nolan was always easy to communicate with and quick to address our needs or concerns. He was patient with us as we looked at multiple properties and we never felt pressured to make a decision. He made the entire home buying experience easy and low stress. We would definitely recommend Nolan to our friends and family!
★★★★★October 2026Very smooth transition, Baily was very knowledgeable and always available to discuss next steps for our property purchase. Went out of his way to help arrange perk testing and met me at property on a few occasions to walk the property. Highly recommend
★★★★★August 2026Great communication with Nolan, even late night or weekend occasions of questions. He was always quick with response. I would assume to hear back Monday, next day. Not at all. He's getting recommended from those I know. Quick with the whole process too. Very professional. Young man. Good Luck With your New Baby Too!

Steven D.★★★★★July 2026Bailey & Nolan are young, dynamic marketing professionals who are particularly knowledgeable and experienced with 7-figure priced properties...even more so on lakefront properties. They were laser-focused on getting us quick activity and did extensive pre-release work that resulted in an acceptable offer in 15 days. They truly understand the social media world and use it to our advantage, and they do so ethically. Their counsel was always spot-on. Won't hesitate to recommend them.

James & Alexandra Kurts★★★★★July 2026From the day we asked Bailey to sell our house to the day we closed, Bailey worked professionally and diligently with kindness, patience, and enthusiasm. We couldn't have picked a better agent, and I would recommend him to anyone I know who is in need of a realtor. Thank you Bailey!
★★★★★March 2026One of the best home sale transactions I've ever had. Bailey is absolutely amazing and did everything to make sure that the sale of the house went very smooth. Very competent and open to help in anyway to move things along. I had no problems and I would recommend Bailey and Nolen to anyone needing to buy or sell at home in the Hickory area.
★★★★★November 2025We work mostly with Bailey. Nolan is great at his profession as well and very knowledgeable. Bailey will work hard and persistent to sell your home. From his previous history in the motor-cross circuit, he is accustomed to the serious disciplined needed to help many customers across the housing spectrum.

Robert and Vanda Freeman★★★★★September 2025Bailey and Nolan did a great job in advertising our house. They were very responsive to answer our questions. They provided us with good recommendations for transporting our second car to Boulder, finding a reasonable person to crate our pool table and most important finding a moving company that was very competent. We highly recommend them.

Andrew Kirk★★★★★September 2025Their knowledge of the present market , very concise, trustworthy , listing process , document compilation from initial contract to negotiations / closing. Yes , I’d “ hire” them again Ty….
James Crowe★★★★★August 2025Bailey Breen guided me all the way through the sales process. I could not have been better advised on Market conditions, local values, and the whole process to closing. In addition , since I was selling the house and living some 700 miles away Bailey handled many of the due diligence items , such as securing contractors, showing up at the house to inspect their work and keeping the buyer informed along the whole process. Would highly recommend Bailey and Nolan for their knowledge and follow through. They know their markets , kept me informed all along the way and

Bill★★★★★April 2025Thank you guys even with some details out of your control, we pulled it off smoothly for the customer. On to the next one. Home builder-
W Walker★★★★★March 2025Great professional Proactive approach Organized
Daniel Weese★★★★★March 2025Bailey and Nolan were very thorough in their listing of our home. The photos and videos showcased the home well and we had an offer in a week. We should have listed the house for $150k more than we did, but an offer in hand is better than no offers at all! We're moving back to Tennessee, but if I was buying or selling a house in this area, I would use them again.

Jerome & Francine Stabile★★★★★December 2024These gentlemen made the entire process of selling our home an amazing experience. Upon our first meeting with them, it was apparent they spent a great deal of time collecting data on comp listings and came prepared. They literally spent hours with us addressing all of our questions and concerns. In addition to the standard photography and matterport used in typical real estate sales, they had the most highly sought out individual to take these photos AND create a video of our home that was incredible. Each being interviewed on key highlights of our home by the camera man. They speak well, are educated and so impressive to just watch. I was in awe of their talent and even more so of how our home was displayed to the public! We have sold 6 homes in our lifetime and these young men by far were the most knowledgeable, professional, thorough, patient and 'current' in today's real estate market and digital world with a creative approach that will make any homeowners sale a smooth transition. We were beyond pleased with them. Their tireless and unwavering support is second to none. Don't miss out on the opportunity to work this AMAZING duo. Their knowledge of the market is so impressive. They will forever have our heart-felt appreciation and will always be recommended by my husband and I as top-notch realtors. Francine Stabile
Firmino & Loretta Silva★★★★★November 2024Bailey and Nolan are an excellent team and did an excellent and outstanding job. We appreciated them getting back to us in a timely fashion when we had questions or how the progress was going on the sale of our home. We would definitely recommend them and plan on using TruNorth in the future.

★★★★★October 2024I highly recommend Bailey and Nolan from my recent experience using them to sell my house. Great preparation, planning, communication, and marketing. They also know the market very well. They understand the headaches and hassles involved in selling a house and that this is not something most people do very often, and they were very helpful to guide me through the process and to make it a very pleasant experience.

Devin Graf★★★★★September 2024A friend recommended working with Bailey as we were going to be new to the area and didn't have a lot of knowledge of the market around Hickory. We are SOOO glad that we made the call. We had so much more confidence in the buying process knowing he was in our corner. He advocated for us and represented us on numerous occasions when we couldn't be present for something in person. Bailey went above and beyond and we are so grateful!
Cynthia Maier★★★★★September 2024I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Bailey & Nolan! From the very first meeting, they were incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely invested in helping me acquire my property. Their attention to detail and understanding of not only the county rules and regulations, but also those of the Homeowners Association was impressive. They went above and beyond, providing insightful advice and guidance every step of the way. What really stood out was their exceptional communication. I felt supported and informed throughout the entire process, and any questions I had were answered promptly. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home or land. You won't be disappointed!

Ronald Giordano★★★★★August 2024I am 69 years old and in all my years of building, buying and selling homes I have never come across two professional in the real estate market such as Bailey Breen and Nolan Johnson. These two gentlemen go beyond what you would expect in a real estate agent. I first met Bailey and Nolan in November of 2023 when they stopped by our home and introduced themselves. I noticed right away their professionalism when they first approached me. The way they stepped back and didn’t try to overcrowd me made me feel respected and at ease. Secondly I was impressed by the knowledge they possessed in what the market was doing all around me. They were very informed. They told me then that they could show me a strategic plan that would sell my home. I remember thinking to myself that these guys were taught well. I told my wife later that afternoon that I have found a couple of guys I felt could easily sell our home. FYI, We had tried to sell our home a few times through other agents without any succes at all. I know it wasn’t the home that was the problem. The home was a beautiful 6000 sq ft custom built home on a golf course with a view and access of the lake. They dropped by to check in with me again a few more times (these guys were persistent) and in late March we signed a contracted with them to sell our home. Over the next few weeks we started to prepare the house to put on the market. As I said earlier these two had a very specific plan to sell our home and it was implemented and executed flawlessly. Not only were they instrumental in selling our home but also buying a new one. We were able to close on both homes the same day. Love it when a plan works! Much thanks and gratitude to you both Bailey and Nolan! Excellent Job!

I would definitely recommend Bailey to anyone who is in the market to buy or sell real estate.

Stephen★★★★★March 2024Bailey was great to work with. He is very knowledgeable and professional. I would highly recommend.
Bobbie★★★★★December 2023Bailey had to work hard for his money. We live out of town. so he had to get quotes for contractors. Sometimes he got several quotes to get the lowest price and fastest person to do jobs. I appreciate that he was thrifty with my money!
Dan★★★★★November 2023We listed our lot for sale with Bailey because of his familiarity with the neighborhood. We had a buyer in short order, and closing was a breeze. Bailey works hard on his network and it shows. We will be listing our other property with him when the time comes.
Blake★★★★★November 2023Bailey was amazing, keep us in the loop! Sold our property in a short time! Closing was seamless!
Bill W★★★★★August 2023Quality communication. Sense of care. Great work ethic. Personable. Understands people.

★★★★★August 2023My husband and I enjoyed working with Nolan. We spotted the house we wanted, and he helped us seal the deal, even when he was scheduled for a birthday celebration. He took all the time we needed, and the sale went through without a hitch. Five stars all around. Can't say enough good things about out experience working with this great agent.

Buyer from Fort Mill SC★★★★★August 2023Nolan Johnson was responsive, professional, competent providing us the advice and guidance we needed to buy the house that fit our needs.
Frank Cantwell★★★★★August 2023From the first time on the phone until the first in person meeting Bailey has been a serious professional. From arranging showings to great information and references for so many things we needed for our long distance move. When we asked questions and he didn't have an immediate answer he always was quick to return with the answer. He has been a guy who always has our best interests at heart. He has truly provided everything we needed to make our purchase and following move a successful experience. With other family members following our move Bailey will always be in the picture. What a great guy to know and trust.
★★★★★July 2023Bailey knows the market and saved us a lot of time by being able to zero in on what we were looking for. I can't say enough about his attention to detail and his advice and flexibility. He's a pro!
★★★★★July 2023We appreciate all of Bailey's assistance in purchase of our new home. He was professional, responsive and ready to help or answer any questions. Smooth transaction from start to finish!
Daniel Erndle★★★★★June 2023Our experience with Bailey was outstanding from start to finish. We initially contacted Bailey to inquire about listing our lake lot, but immediately felt comfortable him and signed a listing contract. He then took charge and developed a detailed listing complete with drone coverage of the location and lake view. He also suggested economic enhancements such as a perk test and underbrush clearing that significantly increased exposure to potential buyers. When a purchase contract was signed Bailey provided almost daily updates on the process and calmly helped us through a number of delays on the buyers side. He even kept in touch while out of the country on vacation. A true professional, we most strongly recommend working with Bailey.
★★★★★June 2023Great job Bailey! I’d have you sell my property any-day !
Seth Lebeau★★★★★June 2023Bailey has gone above and beyond to help us and continue to help us with our new home. He was professional and personable with a wealth of knowledge to lend us. He continues to communicate and made sure our first home buying experience was perfect.
Brenda Welty★★★★June 2023I received a postcard in the mail and took a chance. That chance worked out very well for us. Bailey knew who to teach to get our property sold and listened to what we had to say and where we needed to be as far as price! The only thing was poor communication on his part. I am the one to always text him for information. Thought it should be the other way around!

Nolan would love to hear what you're working on — a first home, a move up, or just questions about the market.
