Vivian Fey
About Me
I’m a proud wife, mother, and member of the Western North Carolina community. My friends call me their “go-to” contact for all things leisure, food, and entertainment related. When I'm not working, I love spending time with my husband and our two boys playing tennis or cheering them on at the soccer fields. I also thoroughly enjoy hosting dinner parties for dear friends.
Experience
A trusted, experienced and dedicated partner can turn the stressful task of selling or buying a home into an exciting new chapter in life. As your real estate agent, I will listen to your needs, analyze various scenarios, and guide you and your family through multiple options with great detail and patience.
As your exclusive real estate partner, I will draw on my personal experience of buying and selling homes to make your move as seamless as possible--whether it's researching schools, houses of worship, or finding the right shops to indulge your mind, body and spirit.
As the wife of a physician, I have had to relocate my family from New York to Virginia (where my husband completed his residency at VCU) to Asheville, where we decided to raise our family. I have gained a deep appreciation of what it means to search for a home in a new town without the benefit of local knowledge. Over the years, I’ve cultivated many relationships with prominent members of the community and a deep understanding of the many different neighborhoods in the Asheville area. This experience sets me apart and uniquely qualifies me to help find the perfect home for families of healthcare professionals. I understand the added pressures facing your family to find the right home as you deal with the challenge of transitioning from residency to practice or from moving from one practice to another.
If you are planning to sell your home, you will benefit from my extensive marketing skills and attention to detail. I have worked as a marketing specialist for Ernst and Young, and as an Associate Publisher in New York City for Institutional Investor, a leading financial publication. Partnering with my clients to identify the right real estate solution is truly the most rewarding part of my job.
Let me help you with your next real estate investment.

Vivian did an excellent job of understanding our needs and requirements, then given her extensive knowledge of the area, she was able to identify the perfect property for us. She is a relentless worker and did a great job handling the negotiations, and after the deal was done, she proceeded to help us organize the different professionals to create the vacation home of our dreams. This was extremely helpful for us, given we are from outside the area. Thank you Vivian and thank you Beverly-Hanks Realty for a job well done.

Vivian Fey did an outstanding job representing us during our home search. She's not only knowledgable in real estate, she also made it obvious of her comprehension of interior construction. She is resourceful and is good at assisting one in making intelligent decision. We visited approx 6 homes before making our decision and during those visits not once did my wife and I feel pressured. She has a good sense of what her clients wants and needs are. I would highly recommend her to my friends/family or anyone who should ask.

Vivian was a god send to me when preparing the house for listing. She had an eye for details and knew how to best present my home. During the sales process, she worked tirelessly and went above and beyond on numerous occasions! Vivian displayed outstanding negotiating skills once an offer was received! I was thankful she was in my corner! If it wasn’t for Vivian and her superb communication skills, I’m not sure the deal would have ever closed. I will miss Asheville. If I ever decide to purchase another home in the area, Vivian will be the first person I call!

Vivian Fey, Broker, came highly recommended. This recommend was earned by her professional demeanor and her real estate knowledge, especially of the Biltmore Park area. Furthermore, we felt she truly had our best interests (as buyers) in mind. We would, in turn, recommend Vivian to others looking to buy in the Biltmore Park area.

Vivian is a top notch professinal. She was involved from soup to nuts with this process. She helped us price the home just right and this comes from intricate knowledge about the local market. Guided us through the various offers and informed us of pros and cons of each and never at anytime pushed into anything. She even moved out furniture by herself for the professional shots. Once we moved to a different state she even watered the lawn and took care of fixing things that resulted from inspection. She was always under control and we feel strongly that we couldn't have sold this home without her services. Highly recommended.

My realtor Vivian Fey helped me a every level. She helped me narrow my selection range, I looked for about 8 months and she patiently kept sending me possibles. I came into town several times and checked out houses. ( I live in VA.) Vivian worked hard for me and I finally found something I wanted to make an offer on. Because my selected house needed so much work, Vivian had workers come in to give estimates so I would know what my final outlay would be. When we had a final estimate, she researched the market again so I could compare my actual costs to some turn-key properties. I decided it was well worth it to take the fixer-upper. These things required both time and extensive knowledge on her part. Vivian has continued to stay in touch with me after the sale, checking on the progress of the work and performance of the workers,many of whom she helped me find. I closed on time with a short time frame!! Vivian has treated me the way she would a friend, and I hope that we will indeed be friends when I am living here. My suggestion for your office: Clone Vivian Fey!

Vivian Fey made our home purchase human based. It did not feel like a business transaction, which is highly impersonal and financially driven. She listens, she cares deeply and she communicates very well. She leaves no detail overlooked. Vivian advocates for you relentlessly and makes what is a very stressful experience super enjoyable. Can not say enough positive things about this really talented agent.

My wife and I were extremely pleased to work with Vivian Fey throughout the entire process of finding and purchasing our home. She listened to our needs and requests and almost immediately prepared a list of possible houses. We eventually purchased a house from her initial list and we could not be happier. Vivian is efficient, caring, and will fight for fairness throughout the process. She truly has her clients' best interests in mind. We hope to not move anytime soon, but if we do, we will definitely seek assistance from Vivian again. She would also be at the top of our list to recommend to friends and family members.

Working with our realtor, Vivian Fey, was the best experience I have ever had working with a realtor. Vivian was professional, easy to talk to, and responded promptly to every email, text message and phone call that I made during the process of selling my home. Vivian immediately provided my husband and I with current market studies and research for homes bought and sold in our area and I felt comfortable with Vivian through all of our discussions on sale factors involved and establishing the price point on our home. In the past, I have felt hesitant with realtors, and was not comfortable asking questions or voicing my concerns, but that was not the case at all with Vivian Fey. She walked me through every part of the process, from the initial staging of our home to the final signatures on the closing documents. Vivian marketed our home in a variety of ways, beginning with an open house to realtors in the area. She was involved in every aspect of the sale of our home and was dedicated to every detail. Every photo printed and posted online was flawless, and the video of our home highlighted every square foot of the property. I have never had a realtor that spent as much time and effort marketing a home as Vivian Fey; she worked countless hours on every detail. I look forward to working with Vivian Fey on all real estate transactions in the future, and I would recommend her as an agent to anyone considering buying or selling their home.

We felt very comfortable that she would be a good partner who would be willing to work with us. She worked very hard to understand the needs of our entire family (even the kids) and satisfied all of our needs and even a few we hadn't thought of. She was always available whenever we needed her.

Vivian is incredibly organized. She gave my check lists to keep me on track with what needs to be completed with regard to each step, as well as helpful info that would make my move an easy transition. Very professional...thinks of every detail! I decided to use VIvian bc she understands the home search can be a long process. She reminded me often if I didn't LOVE the house not to purchase it and that, "we will find the right fit for you, just be patient." I plan on using Vivian Fey again when it is time for my next home purchase and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a home.

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.
