David Ide Real Estate Professional Agent in Biltmore Park, One Town Square Blvd, Suite 140 Asheville NC 28803

team member since 2019

About Me

I fell in love with the mountains of Western North Carolina in the late 1990s after moving to Asheville from snowy New England, and I have never looked back. I am a graduate of the University of Vermont, where I earned a BA in Political Science and Environmental Studies while also playing varsity soccer. More importantly, this is where I met my wife Rachael, to whom I have been married since 1992. Rachael, a classroom teacher for more than 20 years, and I have two boys who attended both private and public schools in Asheville. Both sons now attend Ole Miss in Oxford, MS.

Experience

Give me the opportunity to earn your trust. It is my goal and pleasure to make the process of buying or selling your home as stress free and fun as possible.

My passion for customer service led me to become a full-time REALTORⓇ at Beverly-Hanks. After college, my wife and I owned a wings and ribs restaurant for over six years. Through that business, I not only became a connoisseur of wings, but became obsessed with providing the absolute best customer first experience to each and every one of my clients. I brought that same spirit to sales and executive sales management positions at several manufacturing companies in Asheville. And now I bring that passion to each and every home buyer and seller I work with.

If you are looking for a REALTORⓇ who will work tirelessly for you, or you just want to find out where you can get the best wings in Asheville, give me a call. It would be my honor to help you with your real estate needs.

Testimonials

As in my previous comments, Dave is an outstanding agent, and were I to need an agent in the future, Dave would be my only choice. I would highly recommend Dave to anyone thinking of selling his property!

Pat Dennis, 12 HooletCt. , Candler, NC

David Ide is a gem. We had not had luck with realtors. Nobody ever called us back, and we missed out on several showings because of it. My frustrations were talked about at work, and a co-worker told me that I should call David. I did, and then the very next day we were out looking at a house. He was always there when we needed him, and it always felt like he would drop everything to get us to a showing before a home sold on us. We dragged him outside of his usual stomping grounds to look at homes in Marion, Rutherfordton, Morganton and Nebo. He was always the first to say "let's go look at it" when I'd email a link to him, or show interest in one that he sent us. When things didn't end up being what we thought, I'd apologize profusely, and he'd tell me to stop. He never seemed bothered. I would highly recommend David. Aside of being extremely polite and professional, he's also an overall great guy.

Karen Hoag, Nebo

David was always great—patient, communicative, willing to go the extra mile. We will use him again and highly recommend him to anyone in the Asheville area looking to buy or sell.

Rachel Palmer, Stamford CT

David Ide provided superior service to us in our remote search for a home in Asheville from out of state. He was able to preview homes for us to save us time plus prevent unnecessary sudden trips to town. Our overall plans changed mid-stream, and he pivoted immediately. He kept our focus on the key elements we were seeking, and helped us hone in on what eventually became our house. His tremendous knowledge of local experts kept the process moving and helped our negotiations. We couldn’t have done it without him!

Greg & Virginia Lawrence

Goes above and beyond to make sure his clients are satisfied and happy. David is very patient, trustworthy and friendly. You can depend on him to get you the best result and safely guiding you to become a homeowner. Also, he has excellent communication skills.

Patrice Willis, Asheville

David went above and beyond to help me manage the sale during a difficult transition. Aside from helping me negotiate a great sale price, David was there at every step of the way to help me prepare for the sale while I was out of state, and then from the house itself once I arrived in Weaverville. Scheduling repairs, finding a consignment shop to offload furniture, helping bring boxes to Goodwill: without David I'm not sure the sale would have been possible. Thank you!

Jason Grinblat, Berkeley

Having to sell a home of a dear relative was a gargantuan task. David came in, gave instruction, and even helped us get it all together. Not only did we have the house to sell but shutting down a loved one's life was hard. David offered everything we needed to get the job done. The marketing plan and photos were great. While the area of our home was a very desirable neighborhood, great marketing is important. David presented a comprehensive marketing plan and executed it as well. I needed resources and help with household goods, moving, and repairs. He was able to offer resources for that too. in less than three weeks, the house was photographed, marketed, and sold! He could not have been more knowledgeable and helpful. Thank you so much for all your hard work.

Michele Perrera, Asheville

From start to finish it was a seamless experience due to David. The buying of our property at Biltmore Park and the sale of our property in Brevard. Could not have had a better person representing us. David happened to be at the office the day we stopped by. Took the time to really get to know us and our needs. Could not have asked for a better result due to his diligence. This was a quality experience due to David. He was the best broker we have ever dealt with.

George and Deb, Biltmore Park

From the start of the transaction to and beyond closing David Ide continues to provide exceptional customer service. He provided us with recommendations for various vendors often meeting them at the unit in our absence. He has guided us through each step of the purchase so we always felt comfortable and completely in the loop.

George and Deb Tibbetts, Brevard, NC

Having known David for some years, we were confident in his professionalism, attention to detail, work ethic, and care for his clients David did impeccable work from start to finish. He was there for us at every step. His work during negotiations created a very positive outcome for us.

Andrew Lammers, Asheville, NC

As a friend I have known Dave Ide for several years. Because of his great character and positive demeanor, my sister and I chose Dave to sell our Mother's home. This was my first experience of selling a property. Dave explained everything thoroughly and was super patient with our often repetitive questions. Dave was also very accessible with prompt replies to texts, emails, and phone calls. Dave was absolutely FANASTIC!! As sisters often do, we did not always agree, but Dave was super patient, informative and always followed our wishes. As a former teacher I would give Dave an A+ rating!

Kim Buckner Leicester NC

David Ide is incomparable when it comes to other agents I’ve encountered in other cities. He is responsive, smart, gives great advice and referrals. He knows the area and wants what is best for his clients. Davis is extremely personable and genuine in every way. His follow through is exemplary and he did way more for us in purchasing land than we expected. He worked hard for us. We are so appreciative of his help, his talent, his hard work. We will never forget all that he has done to make our forever home a priority and a dream come true.

Rita Lyle, Mississippi

David Ide epitomizes professionalism and any buyer or seller wishing to work with someone that continually has their best interest in mind, is adept with impeccable and timely communication, is the model for integrity in an agent, a drive to accomplish his clients’ goals regardless of any consequences, and is always on time should put their trust in his hands.

Rhett Flowers

It was such a pleasure to work with David Ide at Beverly-Hanks Realtors! Moving from out of town, he made the process of buying our home so enjoyable! David is informative, has his clients best interests at heart, and makes himself available for any questions you may have. He is professional, organized and goes above and beyond for his clients. I would recommend David to anyone looking to buy or sell! Thank you for the outstanding service!

Jennifer Meyer and Robert Mirsberger, New Orleans

David is extremely knowledgeable about Asheville and surrounding area which was a great plus for us. He is very pleasant and easy to work with, he always has a smile on his face. He is very punctual and gave us personalized house tours with detailed information printed out. He also helped us in weighing the pros and cons of each house. He understood our needs and requirements pretty well. He answered all our questions without any hesitation. And when we found "the house", he made sure to stay on top of things and took care of all the paper work. He was able to arrange house inspectors and complete all the necessary actions in a timely manner (even during a pandemic). He always kept us informed and followed up regularly. He made our FIRST house "hunting to buying" journey very exiting and memorial. We would love to work with David in the future, he is very trustworthy and reliable.

Harsha & Snigdha Middela, Asheville NC

I contacted two real estate agents. Both were friendly and professional, but David Ide outshone the other by far. He knew EVERYTHING about the property and sent me accurate and detailed information, including floor plans, measurements, pictures (beyond what the website showed). He was endlessly patient with my one million questions. My friends all told me they had never heard of a real estate agent that good. All this was especially important since I bought my Asheville home sight unseen, while in Texas. He is the best in his profession, I'm sure. David sent all documents promptly, spent hours on the phone with me going over everything, did a Facetime walk around my new neighborhood, and took steps to ensure that I was wiring my purchase funds to a legitimate account, with no danger of fraud. I felt totally secure working with him. David was here at my parking area waiting for me when I arrived after my three-day drive from Texas. My car was packed full -- every single inch occupied. I had two cats, and one was 19 pounds. David helped me empty my car, carried my heavy kitty inside for me, and had flowers and a card waiting on my snack bar. I was truly overwhelmed by his friendly welcome. I dropped in to pick up some papers David had left me. Everyone was welcoming and professional. My experience could not have been better. I hope your company values David Ide; he is the finest. David did many things for me way beyond what was required. I felt truly valued.

Sally Henderson, Asheville, NC

I have done many real estate transactions and David is one of the best I have ever worked with!

Don Bell Biltmore Lake

David Ide is the most professional and thorough real estate agent we have ever worked with. His knowledge of the market and communication abilities are off the charts. He is absolutely the best!

Bill Ballew, Arden

Very professional It is stressful to move. David took away the stress with a constant calm and did not make us embarrassed to asked again and again for information. He clearly shared the info again knowing we were not always listening. David also quickly accessed what our needs were in a new home. He did not waste time showing us homes that did not fit our price or needs. We truly could have moved into any house he showed us.

Jane Corbin Hendersonville

I have known David for around 10 years now, he and I worked together at a previous job, where he was actually my supervisor. I enjoyed working with David everyday! I knew when I decided to sell my home, David would be the only person I would trust. I knew him, I knew his work ethics. David was amazing to work to with! Always accessible, helpful and very knowledgeable!

Robin Harrell-Shook

David made a challenging sale process go as smoothly as possible. From day one, he worked above and beyond to help me sell this property, including navigating several legal issues with my property. He was professional, always available when I needed him (even from three time zones away where I live,) kind, compassionate, patient and understanding. He is also an excellent listener and communicator. I always felt like he really knew me, and was doing everything he could to advocate for me and get he best results out of the sale. I only wish he lived close to where I live now because I would absolutely return to him for any future real estate matters. I couldn't recommend him any higher!

Edmund Harris, Seattle

David came highly recommend by my daughter-in-law as he was her former coworker and supervisor and we could not have been more satisfied! David went above and beyond helping us through the entire process. He eased our minds when we had worries and concerns, especially with closing which came about the time of Covid 19. David was always professional and extremely knowledgeable. I would recommend him to anyone looking for their next home or property. Great communication, very patient! All around wonderful experience

Geri Putnam - Asheville NC

As a former coworker and supervisor, I knew that David puts his heart into everything he does. I knew using him as an agent would be no exception. I have bought and sold several homes over the years and have always been disappointed in the service I received. David provided the best experience I have ever had. David was always professional and there exactly when I needed him. There were several occasions I asked him for help on short notice and he never hesitated. After closing, he provided me with a binder that documented my full buying experience. I will never had to look for another agent again. David is now my go to guy!

Leanna Craddock, Asheville, NC

David was a previous business associate and friend of my husbands. We knew him and trusted him with our first home buying experience and we were very satisfied! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. David went above and beyond helping us in the whole process and answering all questions we had. He even eased our minds when we had worries or concerns about the property and buying. We would recommend him to anyone looking for their next home or property.

Sashank and Deidra Chennupalli

David was extremely polite/always available/easy to communicate with. There was nothing negative I enjoyed working with David!!!

Peggie, Mills River

David understood what kind of house and environment my son needed. He got my son a full year pass to the bolt more estate and even got myself a glass blowing class even after I just mentioned it once! He was always calm and collective even when I was worried about situations which kept me extremely confident in him. He was very calm with taking us to multiple houses and only gave his feedback when it was necessary. He never pushed anything on me. I was 5 hours away while the house was closing and felt extremely comfortable leaving everything to David to get taken care of! He always explained everything in detail so I could understand it and would also explain it to my son as well. I have dealt with many real estate agents and no one was half the person David was. I can’t thank him enough for everything he did for me and my family!

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.
