-Kyle Randall
"Kenny was amazing! Not only did he help us sell our condo, but was able to find us a house to buy and helped schedule both to close on the same day. Kenny has many contacts to help with home inspections, HVAC inspections, and any repairs or upgrades. He helped us with staging and was there all through the negotiations. Before we purchased our new home, my wife and I were looking for land in which to build. Kenny was patient and knowledgeable regarding land, building houses, and good locations in western North Carolina. After we decided to buy an existing home, Kenny spent many hours with us to get an understanding of what we wanted, then spent a day driving around and looking. Overall Kenny is positive, communicative, and dedicated. His number one priority is to help find people find the home they want. I would recommend Kenny for anyone looking to buy or sell a home."

"We had a wonderful experience working with Kenny and buying our first home. He made a stressful, drawn-out search feel relaxed and enjoyable. I would highly recommend him and Looking Glass Realty to anyone in Asheville and beyond."
-Christie Strong
"We had such a great experience working with Kenny Crowley and Looking Glass. We worked with Kenny last year while looking for a home. We were nervous about being from out of state and trying to buy a home in such a competitive market but Kenny was amazing. He was so responsive, patient, and knowledgeable. He did everything from booking showings on the same day to taking extensive videos for us to view when we couldn’t be in person to see homes. He also has an excellent eye for renovation potential or possible red flags with a property and ultimately he helped guide us into what is our current home and we couldn’t be happier."

"We are from out of state and were looking to buy a home. Mr. Kenny Crowley worked around our schedule to set up in person showings while we were in North Carolina on vacation. He's very knowledgeable about the area. Kenny listened to what we were looking for. He provided the back story for each property we viewed, and exceeded our expectations! Kenny also helped us navigate through the offer process. If you're looking for a realtor who cares about what you want versus just trying to sell a home, I highly recommend Mr. Kenny Crowley!

His experience also gives him the ability to communicate and negotiate skillfully with inspectors, contractors and other real estate professionals. Not having any background in these areas myself, I took tremendous comfort in Kenny's keen eye and expert advocacy.

"I truly can't say enough great things about Kenny. He is sincere, kind and down to earth, but more than that, he goes above and beyond in taking care of everything. He had the answers before I even asked the questions. Finding out the details, contacting all the right people for information and quotes, as well as inspections. He also has a construction background, which gives him great insight as to structure and quality of a building. I have to say he gives 120%. If I could give him more stars I would!"

"I am an out of state investor looking to invest in Burnsville, NC. When I first started looking, I called 4 different Realtors including Kenny. Kenny was the only one that called me back. Since then, he has been very communicative about the market and its trends in that area. I have seen quite a few properties with him and he always gets back to me regarding any questions in a timely manner. Along with knowledge, communication is a rare quality among Real Estate Agents so if you find that important, I highly recommend working with Kenny."
"For the past 6 months, Mr. Crowley has been assisting me in my search for a specific property in and around the Asheville area and I am very grateful to have his expertise. I am a detailed person with a busy schedule and Kenny has been very prompt and direct in responding to all my questions. It has been a challenge, and he has been patient, diligent, and has really listened to my needs. He has a broad knowledge of the region and has shown me some really unique properties that I would have never found on my own. Since I am likely looking to build, it’s an added bonus that Mr. Crowley has a strong background in construction. He’s certainly an asset and I’d highly recommend his services!"
