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.

Karen is a friend and fellow potter. She was very effective in evaluating my property and creating a realistic marketing plan then dealing with the various potential buyers. The property was undeveloped land and I needed a realtor who understood the potential for development and could effectively explain this to clients. Karen Black was perfect.

We knew Karen before hand and referred her to a good friends mother who was moving to town. This person loved her experience with Karen. When it was time for us to sell there was no question who we would use to list. Karen went above and beyond helping us with our house sale. When we needed help getting ready to stage she helped for hours to make it just right. She advocated strongly and strategically for us in negotiations and was very professional throughout the whole process. Would definitely refer her again.

Karen will go above and beyond for you. She networks in a lot of areas. She wants to know and understand everything about your home. To me that matters then I have less calls with questions. Karen has high integrity and is transparently with details and those qualities help with a efficiency to close on your home. If you want someone to understand and is very thorough with everything that is involved with selling a house then you want Karen to be your realtor. Karen cares and is proactive and doesn't drop the ball during the entire process Karen is very knowledgeable about the area and that helps a lot when some of the potential buyers are interested in the mountain range and need to be educated. I have bought and sold homes in other states with different realtors and I can truly say that Karen integrity and efficiency is superior. Ironically when we close on the house we were also dealing with a Hurricane 5 storm in Florida and Karen reached out to us and prayed for us and truly cared for our wellbeing and I will never forget that. We thank Karen for being so thoughtful and supportive during the entire process.

We felt that we were in very good hands with Hannah in all regards. Her ability to describe the property to promote interest was first class. The booklet that she put together was elegant and professional, as was the online advertising of the property. All communications were easy and professional. Whenever I got a little nervous about any negotiations, Hannah was always calm, professional and reasurring. She was quick to contact the prospective buyers' agent, always got right back to us with their responses and thouroughly discussed all angles we needed to consider. She never pressed us in any way to do what she thought was best. Rather, she presented pros and cons and warmly and professionally guided us towards making our own decisions. We could not have asked for a better realtor! Hannah really shines in regard to personal interactions. She "held our hands" at every step of the way, whenever we needed her. She never pushed us toward a decision. She simply and professionally laid out the options and gently helped us to make our own decisions. In addition, she was a total delight with which to work. She is warm, kind, understanding and comforting. She has a way of smoothing your stress and concerns. My husband and I can't imagine having had a better experience than dealing with Hannah. Big thanks to her and to Beverly-Hanks.

As with when she helped me buy, Karen consistently went above and beyond in helping me sell my house. One of the first things I noticed when I met her is how well she listens It's apparent that she loves this work, the nitty gritty detail part and the people part, and she excels at both. I can't imagine what it would've been like to go through this very stressful time without someone like Karen who was there for me every step of the way. I trusted Karen to take care of everything and she did. The stressful parts of the closing had to do with things that Karen had no control over. I learned that others were not as invested in their work as Karen is in hers. I was a crtical care nurse for thirty years and I prided myself on taking care of my patients like I would want myself or one of my family members to be cared for. This is how Karen treats her clients and why I will be recommending her highly to anyone who needs a realtor.

Hannah was on top of all details. She never missed a beat. We quickly came to trust her to execute necessary details and we valued her input in making decisions. Hannah is a caring, knowledgeable and trustworthy professional. She was a true pleasure with which to work. Hannah is honestly the best realtor we have ever worked with. She made the experience stress free and enjoyable. We will definitely use her again and will recommend her highly to our friends.

Karen went above and beyond to help me purchase the house of my dreams. Upon first meeting her the first thing I noticed was what a wonderful listener she is. She gave me the sense that helping me find and buy my home was the #1 priority in her life and was always available when I had a question, concern or needed help with something. It is also apparent that she loves this work, both the detailed nitty gritty part and the people part, and she excels at both. My husband of forty-six years passed away just three weeks before I met Karen. This is the first house I've bought on my own. I believe the stress of such a big undertaking at a time like this would've been way too much without Karen's expertise, guidance, support, and cheerful willingness to do whatever needed to be done, including crawling on her knees in white capris to get a good look at the underbelly of an older home. With the way she has watched out for me and my needs I feel like I got way more than just a realtor with Karen. I will be recommending her to anyone I know who is selling and or buying a home.

I cannot put into words how helpful Hannah was throughout this process. My husband and I were first time home buyers and I could not imagine the process going any smoother than it did. Hannah was so organized and had every next step lined up for us and explained to us in detail which was so nice considering this was our first time doing this. She was there for every inspection and would ask questions that may have been a concern to her, which again was so nice since we haven’t done this before and didn’t necessarily know everything to look for. Hannah was very efficient, respectful, and quick to communicate with the sellers or the lenders when needed and always got back to us by the end of the day to update us. She was honest, optimistic within reason, and extremely understanding of our wants and needs (big and small!) Not to mention the market the way it is, and the fact that we paid listing price for our new home AND got money back at closing… we could not have asked for a more knowledgeable, amazing realtor! We had heard horror stories about using the VA Loan and closing on time but thanks to Hannah we closed right on track! We are forever grateful for Hannah Bayles and look forward to working with her in the future!

My sister insisted Karen Black be the listing agent prior to her death. It was one of her final requests. I also agreed because her kind nature. Karen was very sensitive to the situation. She sold my sister's other home right before and went above and beyond expectations in helping with the move and running things to charities. This was why my sister insisted Karen be the agent. She kept our needs in mind rather than trying to just make a quick sale.

Hannah was great. She anticipated any questions that I had and answered before they were asked! The buyer's attorney and bank were very slow and did not communicate very well. Hannah was very diligent in making sure all lines of communication were open and that we were keep informed of everything.

My family has trusted Hannah with several real estate transactions. She has the rare combination of personality and professionalism which helps greatly during this process. Hannah has worked diligently to facilitate our goals and communication has been outstanding. Hannah’s commitment to her profession is exemplary and my entire family not only considers her our go to agent but a friend as well. Thanks again Hannah! Hannah priced our home higher then anticipated due to her knowledge of the local real estate market. We received multiple offers and could not be happier with the sale. Hannah has helped my family conduct several real estate transactions. I was highly impressed that she was able to exceed our expectations even though we needed resolution in a timely manner. Hannah listens and conducts herself with compassion and proficiency. It’s wonderful to know that your agent is truly an advocate and on your side! The staff were accessible, patient, and professional. Thanks again for helping me and my family during a difficult time. I recommend Hannah without reservation.

Hannah has been a pleasure to work with since the very beginning of our relationship. She was passionate, understanding of our needs, considerate of our budget and felt like someone we could really trust and confide in. We truly loved working with Hannah and having her as our broker. We recently closed on some land, but are hopeful (in the near future) to continue our relationship with her once we are ready to buy a house. As crazy as the housing market is right now, she has remained steadfast and patient throughout the whole process and we are thankful for that. As first time home buyers, it has been a whirlwind of emotions over the last few months and we couldn't have gotten through it without her. We feel as though we've gained not only a trusted broker, but a friend. Thank you!

Karen Black came highly recommended by another agent who didn’t know rural land well, and I felt very grateful for Karen’s help. Very willing to help me see land, to gauge value by my standards and to listen to what mattered to me. She seemed to negotiate competently and help me get info I wanted quickly. She was very diligent after going under contract, even helping after closing when sellers violated the contract. Also she’s just fun to be around. I’d highly recommend her to anyone.

My wife and I both agree that we have never had a better experience with a realtor. We called Karen Black because we wanted to know what our home was worth. What we received was a ton of useful research, great ideas for marketing the property and much more. We decided within ten minutes that it was time to sell the house and that Karen was the right person to do it. We haven't regretted our decision for a single second. We have worked with a few local realtors in the past but we've never worked with one as capable, knowledgeable and downright clever as Karen. If we decide to buy another home in the area, hers will be the first number we call.

Hannah was so wonderful, her attention to detail was amazing! After close, she presented us with a binder filled with the original listing and all the background history of the property as well as the documents, inspections and estimates. Also included was a great workbook to track our future history and improvement with the house. She carefully selected and gifted us some beautiful plants for us to plant in our yard, so thoughtful since she knew we couldn't wait to start gardening! We felt like we gained a friend during the process and we cannot get over the kindness and patience she shared with us.

I got lucky when Hannah was selected to be our broker. I understand she was assigned to us and thank God for that. Hannah was amazing in every aspect of this deal. From start to finish she guided us, helped us, put up with us and above all supported us throughout the 5 months it took for us to purchase the house. She was truly excellent in the performance of her duties. You can't get any better than excellent. Being prior military, we use the word outstanding. Hannah was beyond excellent, beyond outstanding. The entire time my wife and I felt that we must be Hannah's only clients, she was always there, always helping us, always searching for the next property that might work for us. It was not easy doing this in a pandemic and at times it seemed like we would never find a house but, Hannah was always upbeat and positive and that attitude really helped us in times that were truly taxing. It never seemed like a job with Hannah, she truly cares about not just the job but the people involved. It was a seamless operation. Hannah arranged for everything and all the services she arranged were with top notch providers. All the inspections and the mortgage company and everything else was done without any problems. Given the opportunity I would recommend Hannah Bayles to ANYBODY and EVERYONE I could, over and over again. It's not easy trying to find a new house in a different place, starting a new chapter in life in the best of times but with a caring and supportive person which is who Hannah Bayles is as your guide for the journey, you'll be just fine. So try to relax and enjoy the ride she'll have your back.

This transaction was not going to be easy for me, as I was selling my mother's house due to her passing away several months prior. Karen was in my corner the entire time, completely supportive and understanding. Karen made the process easy and as pain free as possible. We achieved our end result and I can move forward. I'm very grateful to Karen for her services and friendship.

Karen could not have been a better service provider...she was attentive to our needs, proactive in the provision of information, and extremely easy to work with. She put us at ease very quickly and made us feel confident that what she was saying and doing was exactly what needed to be said and done. Karen went to work quickly, identified potential interested parties quickly, and brought in two very quick offers. The value for money result above is less a reflection of Karen and more a reflection of the 6% commission rate of Beverley Hanks!! Karen was top-notch.....she made us feel like we had known her for years and she demonstrated that she knew her profession well and knew where the Asheville market was in respect of condominium properties. I am being a bit repetitive, nevertheless, I cannot speak highly enough of Karen Black in her capacity as sales agent and her ability to provide a top notch service in a friendly, yet professional, manner. Ten out of ten!!

Having a personal reference was important to me. Otherwise it's just a shot in the dark. I trusted that Karen would do a great job because my associate knows her and thinks highly of her. I felt really good about every step of the process. Karen was efficient, timely, communicative and knowledgeable. I felt confident that I was in good hands. Matt Gaglione was patient and careful to explain every aspect of the loan process to me. I never felt hesitant to ask questions, and he was always quick to respond. I couldn't be happier with my experience. I got the perfect house sooner than I expected. Karen did a fantastic job.

Actually, I called randomly when I saw A Beverly Hanks sign in the window of a townhome I was interested in buying and she was on floor duty that day. But I must tell you, without knowing her beforehand, I could not have handpicked a better agent to work with me on the purchase of my new townhome. I got really lucky w Karen Black because she was more than competent and extremely amazing to work with. And let me just add, she has a great personality and is a lot of fun... which I really appreciated. Thank you Karen, and I feel like I not only gained the perfect townhome, but I also gained a good friend as well.

Karen was extremely knowledgeable about the kind of sale we were facing: an inherited property with multiple owners, none of whom lived in town. She also knew the immediate area well and had a good idea of comparable properties. She is very communicative: prompt in returning texts, phone calls, etc. She is also patient and thorough, making sure each owner was comfortable with the process. Because of Karen's expert communication, each of the multiple owners was kept updated and fully informed. This was a complex situation but she led us on the smoothest possible path to a quick and satisfying sale. We would rate her as excellent in all aspects and even higher than excellent--maybe exemplary!--in so many aspects of her work, notably: patient, understanding, accessible, professional. Karen led us through a terribly complicated process with aplomb. Before hiring her, we were overwhelmed with the logistics of getting the house onto the market and sold. Once we hired her, we felt confident that we could succeed in selling this house, and we did!

We have recently completed one of the most challenging undertakings known to mankind... selling our home! When it was time to pick a realtor, it was similar to goldilocks and the three bears. The first agent was a friend of our son and was inconsistent in his valuations on our home. He lacked passion and ultimately wanted to price our home for a "quick sale" even though we were under no pressure to sell. We moved on. The second agent, a member of a well known "team" promised us the moon in order to get a listing. Very pushy and not very prepared - Again, we moved on. But the third time was the charm - Hannah Bayles and Jennifer Pauer. They were upbeat, passionate, great listeners and very knowledgeable about our surrounding area. They provided us with an excellent informative marketing packet. They appreciated our home and land immediately. They worked very well together and, in 45 minutes, we knew we had our agents. They were both very personable and kept us calm and informed throughout, and when we grumbled (easily), they put us at ease. Through it all they were absolutely wonderful and we now count them among our friends. Your firm is well represented by these two professionals. We wish them and your firm continued success in the future. Sincerely, Janet and John Gudites 206 Stoney Knob Rd Weaverville NC 28787 973-739-9087 ________ The ladies were excellent throughout the entire process. A+++ TO BOTH! ________ John and I count Hannah and Jennifer among our friends now. We will be returning to Asheville in the future and hopefully can visit with them to catch up. _______ We weren't sure if we would be taking all or part our furniture with us. Your staff was very helpful and also provided contacts for moving companies should we need them. ________ Hanna and Jennifer made this sale a great experience. I assume they work for commissions but we wish you would give them a special reward for their excellence!

Hannah bayles made the process of buying a new home easy. She sought to understand exactly what we wanted and found us the house of our dreams. She was always kind, professional, and knowledgeable! Hannah was there for every part of the house buying process. She arranged meetings with the GC and follow up work with an electrician and contractor, making the process of closing on the house easy. She guided us on what needed to be fixed within the house, and helped interpret the mortgage paperwork and GC's inspection. What I can imagine can be a stressful process for many, Hannah made it seem too easy! I am so thankful we had the privilege of working with her. Oh, and not to mention we closed on the house 3 weeks before our wedding date and I can't believe we landed a house in Kenilworth! I will always recommend Hannah to my friends and family who are looking to buy or sell a house in the future!

From the second my husband and I met Hannah Bayles, we knew she would listen to our wants and needs throughout this process. It was obvious how much Hannah loves what she does. My husband and I instantly felt like we had known Hannah our whole lives - from day 1 she was there for us around the clock. There was never a delay on anything and I felt like we were her #1 priority. Hannah is so warm and kind. I immediately felt safe with her and trusted her 100% throughout the whole process. Hannah went above and beyond for us throughout the whole journey. Hannah took care of all the behind the scenes details for us, which is a lot! I never felt overwhelmed by the paperwork, phone calls, etc. because Hannah walked us through it all 100%. Everything felt so manageable. It was so exciting when we got to our closing date knowing so many of the things on our to do list were getting checked off and we were well on our way to moving in! There were so many unknowns when it came to purchasing a house for my husband and I. I had heard buying a home can be a difficult process but Hannah made it easy! She was always available to answer questions, go over details, make phone calls on our behalf, etc. The process went by so fast and was honestly a breeze. My husband and I started with the best realtor and walked away with an even better friend!

I strongly recommend Hannah Bayles. She is a superstar in the making. She understands her customer and does her research. I found her to be very prepared each time we met. Her help and recommendations while prepping the home for sale were spot on. She sold the house in three days and also got a backup offer for full asking. Hannah’s positive attitude made the process of selling a House enjoyable!
