"Thank you Looking Glass Realty. We had the best experience purchasing our home from one of your realtors - Nan Long. Nan was very professional and represented us as a buyer. She was always ready to answer questions and give us information. We really appreciate the top notch job that Nan did. Not only did we find a great realtor but we made a friend. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a house/property in the area."
-Becky Dobbins
"Nan Long was my realtor for the house that I’ve been in for seven months now. After selling a home in the mountains due to a divorce I was lost on where to go from there. Nan was patient and understanding with my situation. She sent me daily listings for the Transylvania/Hendersonville areas. When I saw a possibility she made herself available to show it to me. She always responded to my inquiries and never pressured me to make a decision. It took me about nine months to finally find my house. Nan gave me referrals for inspections and contacts for people she has worked with in the past for various projects.
I don’t plan on moving, but if I ever do, Nan will be my realtor."
-Max Manthey
"It was an absolute pleasure to work with Nan. She worked tirelessly to make sure we were not only fully informed and comfortable with all the twists and turns of negotiations & offers, but also all the legal requirements. She made an otherwise overwhelming undertaking quite easy & comfortable. She is an amazing asset to have on your team!
Al and Olivia Fillastre."

"When we decided to sell our house we chose an agency that we had not worked with before and the agent assigned to us was next in queue so there was the element of chance and in this case luck for us. We definitely knew we did not want the two recent (5 years) agents/agency we had worked with when moving into the house we were now ready to move on from. I say luck because if we had exercised all of our best efforts at attempting to find the very best agency and agent for us we could not have been more pleased. So it really was serendipitous. If you are reading this review, consider it your good luck to have us recommend Nan Long & Looking Glass Realty with the highest regards to not only the professionalism they provide but the caring personal touch during what is typically a stressful time. She was in our home within 24 hours of our making the phone call to the agency. Nan walked and talked us through the entire process in great detail and made herself available to us no matter how many concerns or questions we had. I kept thinking that I wished I had been able to have her as our agent when we bought the house, not only as the selling agent but the buying one too! She demonstrated to us exactly how things ought to be done for the well being and utmost respect for all parties involved. Until having her at our side for this sale I had not realized how high the quality could be in the way everything was handled. I would only recommend her and her agency personally to anyone, especially my friends and family. And if ever I find myself in need of buying or selling a home she will be the one I call."
-Stacy Sartain
"Our realtor Nan Long is truly a gem. She was patient, knowledgeable and easy to work with. We were buying from out of town and were quite unfamiliar with the area. She was able to steer us in the right direction to find our dream retirement home. She never made us feel rushed even though this process was a couple of years in the making! My husband and I were extremely happy with the service that Nan provided and we highly recommend her.
