| About Myself |
Originally from Charlotte, I earned my Bachelor of Arts
degree from Duke University. After founding, (and serving as
president of), a sales and consulting organization for over twenty
(20) years, I obtained my real estate license in 1996.
In February of 2003, after decades of sales and marketing
experience, I joined the staff of First Carolina, REALTORS, in
Havelock, NC, an organization widely noted and highly regarded
for its experienced professional staff. Five of its Brokers have
earned the CRS designation from the Council of Residential
Specialists. Less than 4% of residential Real Estate Brokers in
the United States have earned this designation. First Carolina,
REALTORS is a member of both the Neuse River Region
Association of REALTORS Multiple Listing Service (MLS) and the
Carteret County Association of REALTORS MLS system. Currently,
I serve on the Board of Directors for the Neuse River Region
Association of REALTORS (NRRAR) Multiple Listing Service.
My love of sailing and the desire for waterfront living drew my
wife and me to the coastal area of North Carolina and in 1996 we
made the move to become permanent residents of the area. My
wife works with the at Craven County Public School System as the
Administrator of Federal Systems for North Carolina in Craven
County. We share our waterfront home with our ninety-four pound
black lab, Star, and eighteen pound peek-a-poo, Nicky. The
boss, to no one's surprise, is Nicky. |

Good Day Sir,
I would like to start by saying Roberta and I are very sorry for taking so long to tell you how much we appreciate your assistance in the purchase of our new home. Buying a home, especially a first home, can be an extremely stressful event. However, in our case, it was not so.
Your professionalism and easy-going nature made our purchase very easy. I am so grateful for your patience and understanding. You were there every step of the way.
Roberta and I are much wiser for knowing you, and I would highly recommend your services to anyone looking to purchase a home.
I have found it hard to find a person in business that has that personal touch. Know that you have set the bar for service in our book. We not only gained a home, but a friend as well. I hope you and your family are healthy and have a happy New Year. Please stay in touch.

Dear Al, I cannot thank you enough for all that you have done. After living abroad for over 6 years, it was so pleasant to come "home" to someone so willing to help. Wanting to purchase my first home, you made the experience so easy. Your vast knowledge, and impeccable customer service skills assisted me from "Start to Finish" in every way. You were always available to answer my questions, address any concerns that I had, and "ALWAYS" worked with my best interest in mind. I am so very grateful for all of your long hours, and hard work on my behalf. Respectfully,
Stephanie McPherson

To Whom It May Concern, Kris and I want to thank Al Padgett for all of the hard work that has been done to help us find, and own, a home. Al has been there for us on weekends, holidays, evenings and any time we have called upon him for assistance. He made it clear that he was available whenever we needed him, and he was. Buying a home can be a bit frightening, but Al was there helping us through the process at all times. There was not a single time when Al didn't answer our phone call immediately, or return our call within the hour. Al and I have spoken on the phone almost daily for the past month and a half, and to tell you the truth, I'm going to miss it because he was always so warm and polite. We had a great first home buying experience, and we thank you for the timely and efficient service you have given my family. Thank You,
The Donalds

Al, We can't thank you enough for how awesome you were when we were buying our first home. It was an entirely new experience for us, and you walked us through every step of the way. Being a new family in a military town, we didn't have our friends and family here to give us advice and guidance. Fortunately, you provided all the help we needed. After we bought our home, you checked up on us on occasion, and you blew us away with your kindness when you dropped by on Christmas Eve to bring a gift for our soon-to-be new family addition. When the time comes for us to leave Havelock, we look forward to having you sell our home. Thanks for everything, Al! God Bless,
Ryan, Katie and Faith Brown

Prospective Buyer, Many times, the hardest part of purchasing a new home or investing in property is the initial first step. One of the first decisions to be made is, do we list with a real estate broker? A broker who is professional, knowledgeable and truthful is of the utmost importance. Al Padgett certainly meets all of these requirements. After years of searching the Beaufort area on our own, we met Al Padgett, who graciously spent several hours with my wife and me, answering all of our many questions concerning the purchasing of property in The Moorings subdivision. His knowledge of the area clearly was a major factor in aiding us to make the decision. I cannot speak highly enough of my dealings with Al Padgett who, in his professional, knowledgeable manner, helped my wife and I make a major decision concerning a retirement move for us. Sincerely,
John Bedford

To Whom It May Concern: Al Padgett of First Carolina, REALTORS, supported us through every step of the buying process. Al listened to our needs and desires, and correctly assessed our situation quickly. With Al's help, we were able to find a home and make an offer within a day. His knowledge of the local area, builders, and local contacts helped guide us through the construction and closing on our new home. He was there for us for the initial MLS listing search, contract negotiations, inspections, walk through, and closing. Every time we called, Al listened with personal concern, and offered sound advice.
Matt and Stephanie Sieber
