After many successful years as the General Sales Manager of a large local real estate company, Jeff Scott decided to start his own company. The doors to the current Marketplace Shopping Center location opened in late 2002 and the team has been helping people from there ever since. Jeff's goal was to have a company where everyone worked together to better serve each client. This business environment focuses on the needs of the consumer while fully utilizing the different skills of each real estate professional. It allows the agents to focus on their strengths and obtain an exceptionally high skill level while enjoying what they do best. The result of this business model has been very happy clients in both the marketing and selling of local real estate. In fact, all of our respondents to our customer service surveys state they would use this firm again. F Jeffrey Scott Jeff has been helping people buy and sell Outer Banks real estate since 1989.
