This was our first experience buying a property in North Carolina, and we needed to find someone who would be able to tour properties for us so that we could make an informed decision from out of state. Fred was very knowledgeable about the area and knew what signs to look for as far as potential issues with the properties. He was always available, forthcoming with any new developments and went above and beyond helping us evaluate and purchase this property. I couldn't recommend Fred enough!

Fred went above and beyond for us while we searched and built our new home. There were many times over the last year where things did not go accordingly and Fred was always there with a professional attitude and new plan of action. He is a pleasure to work with. He actually cared about our families needs/wants and would inquire how things were going. Fred would go out of his way to make sure checks were deposited, forms were signed, or even that the house-building was progressing as expected. We thoroughly enjoyed working with Fred. Most importantly we trusted Fred had our best interest in mind throughout the whole process.

I was buying the house from a distance (moving from out of state) and could not have made this move without Fred's help. His local knowledge (general area info, understanding the local market and what to watch for in properties) was invaluable. His willingness to attend the inspection and walk me through the issues found was also super useful, especially since some of the aspects I had never had to deal with before (well, septic, general drainage issues) and I couldn't attend in person (out of state)! And he kept me on track with what needed to be done and when throughout the whole process. Couldn't have done this without him.

I selected Fred because he was the most considerate and had the most knowledge and went above and beyond any of the other brokers that I had spoken with… He helped me through the process every step of the way unwaveringly… Even things that I didn’t think of he brought to the table and made it happen for me… He never stopped and he was very diligent and making this deal happen. I would highly recommend him over and over again for anybody who wants a superlative real estate agent. There’s actually not enough great things that I can say about Fred. Because I live in Miami currently… Fred made this deal happen for me. He went above and beyond to make sure that I was comfortable in every stage of the transaction. Fred was all of these things and more… After speaking with two other real estate agents I knew he was the one.

Fred Schofield worked tirelessly to help us find and purchase a home in 2020/21 in an unprecedented, fiercely competitive market. Since we were new to the area he showed us houses in a variety of areas so we could figure out what areas suited us best. He was unfailingly cheerful and encouraging, even when we were confused and frustrated. We knew we could absolutely depend on Fred to cross the t's and dot the i's. He responded promptly to our requests for background on a property and to set up a visit. [Since there were no open houses he had to work a lot harder so we could view the properties.] Fred's background allowed him to point out potential red flags so we could take the expense of repairs into account so we could more fully understand the real cost of a property. Fred crafted a cleverly structured bid on the home that we purchased. The owners disclosed an issue that needed to be resolved. During a fairly short due diligence period, at a time when competition for engineers and contractors was intense, Fred researched, contacted, and gently but persistently followed up with many professionals so we could have an updated report from a structural engineer and a bid from a qualified contractor, both of which were used to renegotiate the final cost of the house. He continued to support us after the final contract was negotiated, and even after the closing has stayed in touch to help us with a few minor lingering issues that need to be addressed as we move in. Fred's representation of his values and approach on his website are absolutely true. He is genuinely motivated by the desire to help people find a home they can afford where they will be comfortable and happy. Thank you Fred!

Fred's excellence is unparalleled in any professional relationship I've ever had in my life. He was proactive in solving problems, and went beyond the call of duty to get our house ready for the market after an especially difficult rental situation. We are 400 miles away, and he took the extensive project on with the gusto of a General Patton heading toward Berlin.

Fred is the *consummate* professional with an incredibly personable approach. He is infinitely patient, funny, thoughtful, considerate of the needs of his clients, and someone we'd actually want to spend time with outside of this professional relationship. His knowledge of home construction, interior design, renovation possibilities, and landscape/drainage needs made the home search, negotiations, and due diligence period so much easier. His recommendations for inspectors/others (including pancake houses!) spared us anxiety and saved us money and time. In other words, Fred went above and beyond what we would have expected in coaching us and teaching us about the process of searching for, negotiating for, and purchasing a home. In what could have simply felt like a transactional relationship, Fred made the process feel like we were doing this together. It meant a lot to us. Thank you, Fred!

We contacted our HOA president and she referred us to Fred whom came highly recommended. We were extremely pleased with the outcome. Fred was a true professional all the way. We were so impressed with him that even prior to our closing, we referred him to some of our friends that also wanted to look for property in the area. I would like to share with you a note I sent Fred. It is as follows; Hi Fred, I was getting ready to write you a note and mail to your office but decided on the electronic route as you may not be going to your Beverly-Hanks office during these COVID times. With that being said, we want you to know that we truly appreciate all your efforts in helping us acquire the Swannanoa property. Your professionalism was duly noted throughout the entire process. Thank you again for the certificate to Oak Hill Iron and Wood as it is the perfect gift for us to use during the renovation of the cabin. Also knowing Catherine’s connection to the owners adds another level to your thoughtfulness. We enjoyed getting to know you. Take care! The Fishers Fred was very accommodating with the logistics of the purchase from the surveyor to the attorney and kept us in the loop with all from start to finish.

The sales campaign for our property was excellent. We met with Fred a couple of months before we were ready to list. During that time, the property was professionally measured and photographed. . .all at no cost to me. Within 3 days of listing, we scheduled 11 showings and received 5 offers. Our property was in a location that had a history of slow sales cycles so we were surprised and delighted at the speed in which it went under contract and the final price we received.

We were grateful for the referral to Fred. He is an exceptional Realtor who made us feel as if we were his only clients. It was clear that he has a passion for learning and readily shared his knowledge and experience as it related to our desire for our next home. Fred has the natural ability to effectively pair his kind, warm personality with the professional skills required to navigate all aspects of the real estate transaction. We highly recommend Fred Schoffield and are grateful for the opportunity to work with him. Fred, simply stated, is a top notch Realtor! And especially of importance is his ability to keep a calm and reassuring demeanor particularly when the process toward closing becomes stressful! There’s no better choice than Fred.

We spoke with a couple of brokers, but liked Fred personally, and liked his easy-going approach. We also felt that his association with Beverly-Hanks was an advantage in finding movers, contractors, etc. Fred was incredibly responsive and was always on top of everything. He always let us know the status of everything as soon as he knew. We felt we were in great hands at all times. Fred was unbelievably patient with us, always perfectly polite and professional, and we trusted him absolutely. I can't say enough about his professionalism. And communication-wise, he was amazing. He never hesitated to respond to us on his day off (sorry Fred!), and he took great pains to make sure we understood everything.

Fred Schofield provided exemplary service in our search for property in the Asheville area. He went Above and Beyond supplying us with homes and land to view, answering a plethora of questions, always being available when we came into town and schlepping us around for hours, and all with great knowledge of the area and a wonderful sense of humor. He is a true professional, researching what he didn't know, providing us with timely answers and a wealth of information. I highly recommend Fred for your real estate needs.

Fred was professional to the “t”. He answered any questions that we had as first time homebuyers and anticipated our needs. Fred also helped us after closing to ensure we were satisfied.

We wanted someone that would support us but also be cautious for us. We also wanted someone that made us feel like we were important to them and our story is important to them. We wanted someone that valued our checklist for what a home should provide. Fred made our transition smooth. He was also very diligent about answering any of our questions and being available for us when we needed him. He was also determined to find an answer to any question that we had and he heard us when we had concerns. He was very respectful of his boundaries and jumped in exactly when we needed him to. It also felt as if he was there to protect us and make sure that we were being taken care of. Fred was an amazing person to work with! I couldn't think of anyone better to help us buy our first house! It almost felt like we had known him for years. He was supportive, kind, and guided us when we needed it. He was just overall excellent! The Broker staff was super helpful! They were clear about what they needed.

He did an excellent job identifying what my needs were and addressing them in a supportive manner. Fred demonstrated excellence in timely communication and thorough investigation of the property we purchased. I cannot stress enough the importance in trusting your Realtor, Fred's expertise and calm demeanor made it easy for us to do just that.

My wife and I decided in September 2018 that we wanted to relocate from a home in the California suburb of Oceanside, CA to a condominium downtown Asheville. We also had an aggressive timeframe of moving in at the start of 2019. Fred helped us accomplish our move to Asheville by finding us a wonderful condominium one block from Pack Square. He sent us listings based upon our criteria and then showed me our top choices on a four day visit to Asheville in November. On my final day of that visit Fred submitted an offer on our top choice which was soon after accepted by the seller. Then Fred thru the resources at Beverly Hanks helped us obtain a mortgage loan and put us in contact with relocation services that helped us with a successful move. He even took measurements of the odd shaped condo so that we could be sure our furniture would fit. He always returned our many anxious calls promptly and answered our questions or identified where we could get those answers. All thru this process Fred helped us overcome many obstacles and made sure our move went as smoothly as possible. I am not sure that we could have done this without Fred. We highly recommend him!

Fred Shofield was most helpful to me because he was sensitive to my needs, he was able help me understand the process, he realized how important this sale was to me, he understood the situation I was in and he was kind. There was no high pressure. Things worked the way he told me and this was of great benefit to me. I can not say enough about Fred and his professionalism, knowledge, complete dedication to his job. I thank him for all of his help and kindness. (And for your information, the sale was made within one day. It took a few more days to get everything completed as required.) Fred is an outstanding representative of your firm. Employees like Fred are hard to find and I would recommend him highly. I never came to the office. I only dealt with Fred. I feel honored to have met Fred Schofield Fred worked very hard (many late hours) and he was available when I needed to ask a question. I have lived all over the world, with the government and never had someone who was not arrogant and did not treat me as If I was ignorant/dumb. I was pleasantly surprised to have such a gentleman help me through the process.
