This is our 5th Transaction together! Johanna Holcomb is meticulous with handling every detail of buying or selling, and we’ve been on both sides of the transaction. My husband and I would trust her with anything as this point. She is warm in her manner, but professional in all her behavior. We would never go with anyone else. The first time we bought a house from her, about 7 years ago, we called the day before New Year’s at the last minute and asked to see houses the next day. She cancelled plans with her family to help us, and we bought our favorite house on the beach as a result. We’re forever grateful.

Johanna was a wonderful realtor that worked with us for 10 years to find that perfect home! She never gave up on us and worked extremely hard to find our dream home! Would recommend her to anyone in the market!

Our journey began back in September 2016 when we attended a function at the beach in Corolla, NC. While there, we thought how wonderful it would be to have a beach house of our own. On a Sunday afternoon, we stopped by the Coldwell Banker office, not sure if anyone would be working. To our surprise, we met Johanna, who welcomed us in and sat down to explain the realities of buying property at the beach. Her message was clear: you need to be financially ready—no one is going to wait for you to sell your house when buyers are lined up with offers in hand. We left knowing we had some homework to do and time to prepare before our dream could become reality. Over the years, we stayed in touch with Johanna, often calling to ask about one house or another. Without hesitation, she always made time to show us properties and keep our dream alive. Fast forward to May 2025—after years of saving and preparing—we were finally ready. With enough funds for a strong down payment, we reached out to Johanna with a long list of homes to see, and she made it happen. We placed an offer on a property losing out to a higher bidder. That pushed us to become more aggressive, and eventually, we found the home we truly fell in love with. Johanna could see we were ready, and when we gave her our first offer, she was honest: that’s not going to get it. We raised our bid to a number we felt comfortable with, and Johanna quickly prepared and submitted our offer. Within days, we learned we had won the house—and our journey was finally moving forward. From that moment, Johanna guided us seamlessly through every step. She coordinated inspections, lined up all the necessary paperwork, and connected us with Jamie Lavir, a mortgage loan specialist from Towne Bank Mortgage. Jamie immediately provided our pre-approval letter, ensuring our offer was solid. Over the next 35–40 days, Johanna kept everything on track until, at last, we received our keys on September 23, 2025. We are beyond grateful for Johanna’s dedication, honesty, and tireless efforts in helping us make this dream come true.

If you are looking for an all star real estate agent specializing in properties in the Outer Banks, look no further than Johanna Holcomb. We have worked with Johanna twice now and working with her each time was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Johanna has a deep knowledge of the local market, incredible attention to detail, unwavering commitment to her clients and goes above and beyond expectations on every aspect of a transaction to make the process seamless and enjoyable. When we were looking for a property, Johanna took the time to truly understand what we were looking for in a beach house and presented several options in an incredibly tough market to find the right fit. Johanna's ability to navigate the complexities of coastal real estate, including zoning regulations, property inspections and other critical considerations, was also invaluable. When we worked with Johanna to sell our property, Johanna provided insightful recommendations to prepare our home for sale. Johanna was especially helpful with the pricing strategy and putting together an exceptional marketing plan—including professional photography and targeted outreach—helping our home stand out among the competition (we got a contract in under 24 hours!). What truly sets Johanna apart though is her genuine care for her clients. Johanna treats her clients like family, operates with a fantastic sense of humor and positive outlook, is persistent and professional and was always available 24/7 to answer our questions, provide guidance, and advocate for our best interests.
