You will find our background as a team is very diverse and our specialty is SERVICE, while creating lasting relationships! Throughout our real estate careers, Christine & I have been able to share many of our past experiences to entertain and enlighten your buying and selling experience. We strive to practice the same work-ethic, team concept, caring and attention to detail that we have used in a competitive, university athletic setting for years. We both have had the privilege to work in Athletics at the University of Southern California, University of Oregon, Michigan State University, University of Tennessee and Western Carolina University, located in the neighboring town of Cullowhee. It was in 2002, where we discovered and fell in love with the area, the residents and the culture. We made one of the most important decisions of our lives, where we chose to start our family in the mountains of Western North Carolina and are grateful for the memories and experiences we have each day.

In January 2007 we made the decision to purchase REALTY WORLD-Heritage after working as Realtors for nearly three years for the company. On February 2, 2018, we decided to embrace the family of Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate, where for many years, it has always been the brand folks already know. The national exposure for our real estate services, along with strong leadership & continuous evolvement with technology, strengthened & continues to support our established real estate success.

Needless to say, moving from Los Angeles, CA was a big move for us. The consensus of our big move has been a positive one and regularly attracts our friends and family. Over the years we have shared the true small-town feeling of friends and neighbors, becoming our extended family. Being able to be a part of many community efforts and organizations has truly made our mountain lifestyle more enjoyable and rewarding.

In working with our team, you will find, we greatly use technology to service our clients in many ways. For our buyers, we keep them updated on their home search, and for our sellers, we are able to communicate all the areas our online creative marketing efforts reach, in order to sell their home. Your experience with our team does not stop after the transaction completes. In doing so, we are grateful for our past clients' referrals and repeat business all these years. We feel having the right knowledge, service and guidance will help make your real estate experience in Western North Carolina a memorable and rewarding experience with our team.

Your dreams and investments are as important to us as they are to you. We tell people we meet, "Some things are better together in the Mountains of Western North Carolina". We look forward to the opportunity to meet you via text, on a call, online, or in person. Our team is always READY to start working for you. -Thomas & Christine Mallette Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Heritage Owners/Brokers
