About Me

I was born in Louisville Kentucky. As a child I was fortunate to have adventurous parents that enjoyed the outdoors. We travelled a lot and Western North Carolina was a common destination. I started college at Montana State University in Bozeman and eventually graduated from the University of Louisville with a Bachelor's of Fine Arts. During this time I spent several summers working at Camp Mondamin in Tuxedo NC, which I also attended as a kid. This is also where I met my future wife.

After the summer of 2001 I moved to Asheville and spent a lot of time pursuing a lifelong passion: whitewater kayaking. This eventually led to several jobs in the Outdoor Sports Industry where I worked as a designer and in sales. I then transitioned into the furniture business where I did sales and delivery. In search of more opportunities, I got my real estate license in 2009 and dove into a declining market. This forced me to learn many aspects of the real estate world and I quickly learned that this can be a tough but very rewarding endeavor.

I now have 2 young boys and an amazing wife. I try my best to instill the same sense of adventure in them, that I received as a child. We spend as much time outside as possible and enjoy hiking, biking, paddling and skiing. We live in an incredible place with numerous opportunities and I enjoy sharing that with other people.

Experience

I have been a licensed Real Estate Agent in North Carolina since 2009. I started my career with a small local firm but decided to broaden my horizons in 2018 when I joined Beverly-Hanks & Associates. The additional support, brand recognition, and access to an award winning marketing department has proven to be very helpful to me and my clients.

Couldn't have asked for a better realtor / person to help me buy my first home. Without him I'd still be renting. I highly recommend Caleb!

Caleb Coaplen has helped me buy/sell 6 houses. I keep going back to him because of his specific knowledge of the local market, his unwavering dedication, and his professional yet still very personable demeanor. I too am a real estate professional and have worked with many agents over the years, and Caleb stands out far past the masses. He truly is the only WNC agent that I recommend to others.

Caleb was friendly and approachable. He was accessible by text and phone when I had a question or concern, and attended inspections that I was unable to make since I lived out of town at the time of my purchase. He was referred to me by a friend, and I would certainly refer him to others.

Caleb is an excellent agent. He went above and beyond for us, and continues to be a source of knowledge when questions arise. We recently moved from Austin, TX and had concerns about the ability of a “new to us” agent meeting our needs as well as our TX agent did. Caleb met and exceeded our expectations, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to our community. Caleb was essential in helping us to navigate some tricky negotiations, and we are so thankful for his expertise, sense of humor, and patience throughout the whole process.

Caleb is an awesome real estate agent. I was recommended him by multiple friends who have worked with him in the past and I must say working with him was phenomenal. He was always ready to view a house no matter how last second it was. He would go above and beyond to find out any tough questions I had about properties. He was always on time to our meetings and is very knowledgeable when it comes to buildings and local codes. He made my first time buying a house go by like a breeze. I would use his services again if I ever buy another house. 10/10. Great job Caleb! Caleb was able to negotiate the price and work a huge deal in where the seller made a major repair. He stayed on top of things for me and made my home buying experience awesome. I’m very happy with my purchase and wouldn’t have found this property without the help from Caleb. Caleb is easy to work with. He is laid back and has a calm demeanor about himself. He was always on time, always professional, and was just in general a nice guy. He can help you with all your housing questions or talk to you about last nights football game. He is great at what he does and will find you the dream home you’re looking for.

MStrauss, Asheville

We met many agents in the course of our house search process, but we ultimately asked Caleb to represent us because of his integrity, calm and attentiveness to the kind of house we were looking for. We are new to the Asheville area and had only an inkling about the various locations around town we preferred. A mountain home with a well and septic tank? He walked us through the plusses and minuses. When we found homes we wanted to look at, he was very frank about the areas in which they were located, sharing the positive, negative and possible issues that might arise. When he found out about a development project that was planned for the area adjacent to the home we were interested in, he let us know right away, and we were able to add that into our other considerations. He walked us through the bowels of houses we liked, and, as we didn't want to deal with major renovations, pointed out plumbing, HVAC and electrical issues or non-issues that were pivotal in our choice of a final home. Caleb is also a heckuva nice guy! He always made time for us, and got back to us quickly about questions we had. And we always looked forward to meeting him at whatever property we were visiting. Many of the real estate agents I have worked with in the past were mostly salespeople. We never got that sense from Caleb. We always felt that his first priority was finding us a home we would be happy with on the closing date - and for as long as we were in the house. We couldn't recommend Caleb more enthusiastically!

We had a very professional and friendly buying experience with Caleb Coaplen. He has a very calming and approachable demeanor with an enjoyable and engaging personality; he was even kind enough to laugh at our bad jokes! Caleb’s intimate knowledge of Asheville provided a great deal of wisdom and assistance to our first home buying experience, too. He showed us multiple houses over a course of months, and was very quick to notify us of potential listings in the area. Caleb responded quickly to questions, as well as recommended and helped to arrange services required for closing that were also professional and excellent to work with. We recommend Caleb to anyone that is looking to buy a home in the Asheville market!

How is the tax bill of a home determined in North Carolina?

Real property is appraised at 100% of market value and includes land, buildings, structures, and improvements. State law requires counties to reappraise every eight years, but many counties reappraise every four. A bill can be a combination of tax rates. For example, a home inside the City of Asheville and Asheville City School districts will have three separate tax rates represented on a bill: the Buncombe County rate, the City of Asheville rate, and the Asheville City School rate. All rates are totaled to calculate the total tax liability. Tax rate estimates for our mountain communities can be found on page 127 of the Allen Tate/Beverly-Hanks Welcome magazine.
