Outer Banks Real Estate

Testimonials

A few years ago, my husband and I decided to buy a house in the Outer Banks: till then, we had been renting via Twiddy & Company and had been very happy with the help and service it always provided. So after a few months of being swamped in our own attempt to search the perfect house on the water via internet, we naturally turned to Twiddy for help!

You all know how stressful and difficult finding the “house of your dreams” can be! Well, for us, the whole experience has been totally the opposite: call it fate, luck, God’s Hand, but we were blessed enough to have Jane on the phone the first time we inquired about our OBX adventure. In one single week-end, we had found a real gem on the sound and were able to settle right away at the peak of the market and on a Sunday, thanks to Jane and Glenn’s professionalism, reactivity, dedication and ability to make it all happen in a glimpse...

Not only that, but Jane and Glenn’s unusual kindness, thoughtfulness and character lead us to not only acquire the famous “house of our dreams” in no time, but also to have new “friends for life”, and you know how hard and rare this is past one’s College years!! I have zillions of examples in mind illustrating how sweet and efficient Jane and Glenn are, but there is one I want to share with you as it shows also a great sense of humor on their part:

Once the deal was done, Jane and Glenn did not just say goodbye, they went out of their way to help us in any ways you can think of (local businesses; addresses and phone numbers for all the services we may need; tourism; etc) and continue to do so till this day. But a few weeks after we signed the contract, I had an email from Jane who was worried, because the ex-owner wanted to keep a few items in the house: this owner had been fantastic with us and he just had a little list of personal items he wanted to keep including sweet & low and a bottle of vodka almost empty. Of course, both my husband and I were totally comfortable with this, but impressed by Jane’s integrity, we both responded and joked via separated emails that we did not mind except for those 2 items that we actually really wanted! So next thing we know, we arrive for the first time in the house since we bought it and here, awaiting for us, is a Welcome basket including treats for the kids, a picture of the house... and a box of sweet & low ... and a mini-bottle of Vodka!! I laughed so much when I saw that and thought that these guys were truly unusual!

That week-end I came down with my then-9 year-old daughter to look at the house remains one of the best memories I truly treasure thanks to Jane’s gentleness and ease. Now our OBX home is the theater of many fond memories to come for us and the children, and Jane and Glenn are fully part of the picture...

I’m very excited about “truly” owning our house now…I’ve been there for the past two days trying to clean it and make it our own and I’m still not done…hopefully one more day, but as soon as I do, you and Glenn are the first ones we want to invite over for dinner. Just being there for the past two days makes me want to live there all the time! WE ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! We can’t thank you enough for making our dreams come true! “SHORE SOUNDS PERFECT” is simply the perfect house for us and our family! Thank you again for helping us find our dream home, and on top of finding the perfect home for us we were also very fortunate enough to find friendship amongst two wonderful, caring, and honest people in the process!!! You both are the best and we are happy you were/are a part of our lives! Can’t wait to get together soon!

My wife Stef and I had been vacationing in the Outer Banks, with our kids, for over 10 years. We finally decided to take the plunge and purchase but were nervous about finding the right home at the right price. We were lucky to have Jane and Glenn Jungen navigate us through the process. They got to know us, what we were looking for and most importantly what would work for our family. We live outside Philadelphia and couldn't go looking at houses every day but it felt exactly like we were. Jane and Glenn updated us continuously on the changes in the market. They provided only the relevant homes for the size, location and pricing that would fit our needs. We were no longer nervous when the settlement date arrived. Even in this turbulent marketplace we knew we got exactly the right home at the right value. Their attention to detail, knowledge and advice was of the highest caliber.

We don't consider the Jungen's our real estate brokers, we can honestly say that they are now our friends.

We absolutely love the house you and Glenn helped us find. Having enjoyed the house for our first summer, we have discovered the location to be even more ideal than we originally thought. We hope to recruit more friends to purchase homes in Duck, and will be sure to send them your way. Mike and Ashley Lanier
