If you’re looking for a quiet but very active community with lakes for fishing, swimming, boating, etc.; golf; hiking; social activities and so many other amenities and organizations, look no further.  We wanted a new community where we would have many opportunities to meet other residents and we believe Connestee Falls will provide that. We are excited about this new chapter in our lives and we are so thankful for Nolan Riess’ help in making it happen.

After studying and visiting lake communities in five states and extensively in North Carolina, we decided Connestee Falls was definitely the best community for us.  At the beginning of this three-year process, we met Nolan Riess and he started telling us about all the amenities and natural wonders of Connestee while also keeping us posted about possible homes.  Nolan has patiently and cheerfully worked with us all this time and with his consistent but never high-pressure help, we recently purchased a beautiful home on an amazing lot on Lake Ataghi. Nolan is enthusiastic with a positive outlook and we are blessed to have gotten to know him.  He was always happy to show us any property we wanted to see, and he was responsive and knowledgeable about houses and the community. Nolan has been helpful to us in so many ways beyond being our realtor, even after we had purchased the property. We highly recommend Nolan and the community of Connestee Falls and we can’t wait to move into our new home.

I was recently asked if I would recommend my realtor to someone interested in looking in this area. I had no hesitation at all in recommending Nolan. He did a great job for me! He was attentive, knowledgeable, professional, super fun to go house hunting with, and I really think he was as happy as I was that we found my new home. Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Nolan also was someone I trusted right away. He was always upfront and
honest, realistic in his approach and definitely more of a “service” type of realtor. I knew he wanted to help me find the perfect place for me, not just make a sale. I was not the easiest client. It took me 3 years of looking and working things out in order to make this move, and Nolan was infinitely patient and as enthusiastic when we looked at the last group of homes as he was when he showed me the first. Throughout the whole process, (even on the frustrating days), Nolan always made it fun and was confident we’d find my new “nest”. Sure enough, we did!

Over the years, I have learned how imperative it is to work with just the
right realtor - someone with knowledge of the product, of course, but one who also has the utmost integrity so that you know that they really are working on your behalf. I got that and more when I worked with Nolan Riess to find my new home in Connestee Falls. Nolan not only has a great working knowledge of available homes and the surrounding community, but he also has an amazing knack for remembering all kinds of little details about the homes which came in very handy. That was not a small task when it came to how many homes we saw together, and I was just one of his clients!
