Hesper Dickson
About Me
Hesper has always cherished the unique character of Western North Carolina, not only for the area’s beauty and diversity but for the deep connections the region has to her family and her past. Whether she’s exploring country roads with clients or enjoying cycling with friends, Hesper loves the process of discovering places that are new and exciting, but are also reminiscent of her personal history and the rich character that is unique the Appalachian mountains. Born in Brevard NC, Hesper earned her bachelor’s degree in Housing and Interiors from Appalachian State University in Boone. She has lived in Henderson, Buncombe and Transylvania counties, working in a variety of aspects of the construction industry, from home remodeling and design to contractor sales. Hesper joined Steve Owen and Associates fourteen years ago and enjoys working with buyers and sellers. Six years ago she teamed up with Billy Harris, working from both the South office near Cedar Mountain and the downtown Brevard office.
In her personal life, Hesper enjoys cooking, traveling, mountain biking, road cycling, and spending time with her family, friends, and pets. “My quality of life, in Brevard NC, is pretty amazing – whether it’s cooking with friends, getting out in the forest, or enjoying local music. When you’ve lived here your whole life, it’s easy to take all that for granted. That’s one of the things I enjoy about my work; my clients are constantly reminding me of how lucky I am to live in Transylvania County. And in return, when I’m showing Brevard’s real estate to buyers, it’s great to have a familiarity with the area, or even personal stories, that I can share. It gives them a deeper insight, a more authentic connection than they’re going to find in a brochure. It is not just a house for sale or land for sale in Brevard, NC it is a whole why of life we have to offer and share with buyers wanting to move to WNC.”
Experience
Her familiarity with the region and understanding of the housing industry give her a set of skills uniquely suited to NC real estate. And she takes pride in going the extra mile for her buyers and sellers: her tireless work ethic, comprehensive due diligence, ability to coordinate key players and attention to detail consistently result in successful closings. “It’s pretty exciting, the process of getting to know your clients, exploring the area, and helping buyers find the place that’s the perfect match for them. And after you’ve navigated the road to closing the deal, it’s rewarding to know that you’ve helped someone create the future that they always dreamed was possible.

Hesper is AMAZING. Helpful doesn't begin to describe the level of assistance she provided with the sale. She handled everything from inspections, to house cleaning, to landscaping, to throwing out the trash. I don't know how I would have been able to get everything done without Hesper.

Hesper Dickson was our buying agent five years ago when we first came to Brevard. Hesper was very patient with us and showed us several properties in various locations before we decided on a house. She understood exactly what we wanted and asked questions that helped refine our wants and needs. She assisted us greatly through the entire purchase process. When we found a property recently that we were interested in, we immediately called Hesper. She didn't disappoint. COVID-19 has definitely affected the house-hunting process, but Hesper has adapted to the new reality and again worked with us all the way until closing without a hitch. If we buy or sell more property in Brevard, Hesper will certainly be first person we call.

Hesper was super personable and very flexible regarding any changes during the process. She also was super efficient with the time she spent with us during our search and during the closing process. Her local knowledge was invaluable during the entire process including recommending contractors and vendors to use. She was a gem for us! Won’t hesitate to recommend her to others seeking an agent .

Hesper is an extremely competent, friendly agent. Her life-long knowledge of the WNC area and current market conditions is invaluable to buyers and sellers. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again as a purchasing agent. I would equally consider her as a listing agent should I need to sell my property. Although, that may take a while as she has found us the perfect property.

I would 100% recommend Hesper to any of our friends and family looking for a house in the area. Couldn’t have had a better experience buying our home here and it was mostly because of her. She took care of all the little details, inspections, paperwork, etc. and made the process as smooth as possible. I know this sounds like a canned promotional ad: but we really can’t say enough good things about her.

Hesper is and was a dream to work with! She is open, friendly and always made sure that we understood every step of the way. I feel there is not many brokers like Hesper. I felt like she gave us the guidance and help we needed, and always made is feel like she had our best interest at heart. We had complete trust in Hesper, and valued her knowledge and insight. Hesper helped us buy and sell our home in NC. We moved to Massachusetts and have been working with a Realtor here, and find ourselves often comparing our new Realtor to Hesper....and Hesper blows our new Realtor out of the water! I wish we could clone Hesper and use her everytime! We had complete faith and trust with Hesper and the brevard office! Couldn't have been any better! Excellent, exceptional, perfect!Hesper is a gift to have and work with!

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.
