TESTIMONIALS
Believe all of the five-star reviews! We did an extensive search to find Natalie Marrone.
There are a lot of people who sell houses but very few who help you find the right home and help you make it an even better home. Natalie did all of that and more. We had a long list of requirements since we're older buyers and Natalie took the time to know us as people so that she could help narrow down our search.
Natalie did a lot of work that was beyond the usual scope of a buyers agent because of some special circumstances with the sellers. She masterfully orchestrated the sale and treated everyone with kindness and respect.
She truly is above and beyond any other agent you'll find.
- CNS, Buyers
Natalie did a WONDERFUL job helping us find the best house for our needs! She knows the specifics of the local market and all facets of the purchasing process. She provided data to support her facts, names of people and companies to assist in our final purchasing decision and guided us the whole way. She is in every way, the consummate professional!
What makes her a standout realtor, however, is her caring personality. She's an excellent listener and works extremely hard to find the right house for her clients. When that meant interrupting her Valentine's Day dinner or working on Super Bowl Sunday, she was there for us! Because of her knowledge, experience and kindness, we would highly recommend Natalie to anyone looking for a home in the Hillsborough area.
-Lisa Spey, Buyers
Stop looking for other agents and pick Natalie! Natalie's exceptional work selling my house deserves my utmost appreciation and praise! She was able to sell my house within the price range of new construction, which is no simple feat. I had no idea what I was doing when I decided to sell my house after a life change. She took the time and explained the process in great detail to me. Her professionalism and skills are exceptional, and I feel grateful for having her as my agent. She is proactive and courteous and has your best interests in mind. She reached out to her vast network of contacts to prep my house for sale and presented it on the market professionally and appealingly in a small time frame. I can't stop thanking her for all her hard work.
I highly recommend Natalie!

Natalie Marrone was actually recommended to us by another realtor, who was in the industry for over 20 years, which should tell you how good she is by that alone! She listened to what we wanted in a house and delivered exactly that! She was so knowledgeable about possible communities that fit our needs and budget, and she patiently answered any questions we had about this process and housing market predictions. She is also incredibly thorough, as she noticed some discrepancies with a house we were considering putting an offer on and saved us a ton of money by alerting us to possible issues with the house. She is extremely passionate about her clients and gave my fiancé and me multiple “therapy sessions” and life advice to help us throughout this process. We now refer to her as our friend and jokingly our “Italian Mom.” Even a year after closing on our house, which we keep falling more in love with every day, she keeps up with us, asks us how we are doing, and still provides us with advice when needed. We highly recommend her as your agent if you are looking to buy or sell a house in the Triangle!
-Amanda Smith, First Time Home Buyers
Natalie was simply fantastic throughout the process as we bought my first home. I was new to home buying, though my partner had been through the process before. Natalie was always informative and told me there were no dumb questions. Most importantly, she was always responsive and professional and did a fantastic job communicating with the sellers' agent, as well as helped us coordinate inspections, etc. We ended up getting a great deal far below asking price, which is hard to come buy in this market. She's also simply a joy to work with. We highly recommend her for your home buying needs!
- Seth Smith and Joe Cabosky, Buyers and Sellers
Natalie is AMAZING! We met her at an open house and quickly realized that she should represent us as a buyer's agent. She's very knowledgeable about the local real estate market and is very quick to answer any questions or point out details of potential houses.
As a first-time home buyer, she was very instrumental in making the process going as smoothly and quickly as possible.
And I learned a lot! Highly recommend!
-Knute Svenson and Mimi Zhang, First Time Home Buyers
Natalie Marrone was recently presented with the seemingly difficult task of selling a house where the owners were in three different states. From the moment Natalie signed on with us, she was off and working toward the goal of the sale of our house. Natalie kept all parties informed and up to date, without partiality and was always available to answer any question or concern. Natalie accomplished all aspects involved with the sale, from giving a choice of qualified vendors for repairs to the successful and smooth closing of the house..and to mention a sale above the asking price. Natalie is 100% tops in her profession and the bonus...she became a friend. Natalie is someone who displayed compassion and care to the utmost in respecting and honoring the memory of our parents, someone she never met.
With Natalie at your side, this is more than
the sale of real estate...it is someone's life.
I highly recommend Natalie for all your real estate needs and wants.
-Deborah S. Riley
Natalie was a fantastic realtor during my boyfriend’s search for his first home. The process was particularly unique because he was living abroad at the time, working within a tight time frame, and relying on proxies on the ground in Durham. This would not have been possible without Natalie’s impeccable organization, timely communication, and extensive knowledge of the area. She was an assertive advocate, a joyful presence, and a wealth of information throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Natalie if you are searching for a home in the Triangle area.
-Courtney Liu and Troy Suter, Buyers
Imagine trying to purchase a home from out of state and not really knowing much about the area and having very few contacts. Then imagine not really being sure of exactly what you want or even in what community. If you think that's a challenge - just imagine being the realtor trying to satisfy that buyer! I was that buyer and Natalie came through in flying colors. While I had another realtor recommended to me, I met Natalie by chance. After meeting with her, I was impressed with her communication skills, expertise, her contacts, and most importantly, her interest to understand my needs and situation. There were several offers on the house and Natalie and I disagreed a bit on how to win. In the end, I knew I was not the expert and she was. I trusted her and she was right. Our offer was accepted! And, she saved me money! Natalie made the entire process possible. I would have never been able to get through it all without her. I highly recommended her.
-Rick Cabosky, Buyer
If you want a realtor who really looks out for her clients’ best interests, is detail oriented and a true professional- call Natalie Marrone. Her energy, passion and real estate knowledge make her the best realtor we have worked with!
-Joan and Karnel Walker, Buyers
The best experience ever. Natalie was so helpful, knowledgeable, respectful, and showed her expert skills by selling the house quickly and for a wonderful price point. Also easy to contact and answered all questions we had quickly and accurately!
-Dr. John and Patricia Berry, Sellers
Our experience with Natalie Marrone was a Goldilocks story. We had hired two realtors before Natalie. Understanding of our position in the marketplace and effective communication led to no offers in two years and we were exhausted. Natalie Marrone was our just-right realtor! From the beginning, I appreciated Natalie’s listening and her honesty. She dealt with the vulnerability and attachment we felt about our beautiful home, designed by my husband, twenty-seven years before. Though Natalie understood and appreciated the aesthetics of our home, she also understood basics that made selling possible. To better understand the market, Natalie showed us homes we were competing against-- brand new construction with lavish pools in our same price point. Graphs and statistics helped us understand the realities of the marketplace. In preparing to market, we drew on Natalie’s wide network of resources, her knowledge about appeal to buyers and her understanding of social media and its power to reach buyers. But my most overwhelming experience was seeing the time she invested. She communicated weekly with statistics and verbal reports on our showings and truly worked tirelessly on our behalf; from finding a stager during a pandemic within our budget, to recommending a reasonably priced landscaper and painter. She worked tirelessly in terms of negotiating the contract. Every step of the way she earned our trust and respect. Now as we prepare for the final days in our home, we realized that without Natalie, our home would not have sold.
All her gifts and her patience and her partnership paid off in a sale price we are happy with
and a new beginning for us.
-Susie and Ron Wilde, Sellers
Working with Natalie Marrone was a pleasure!! We successfully sold my parents’ home which needed considerably work, way over our asking price. Throughout the process, we were grateful to have Natalie to collaborate with, sweat it out with, ponder, review strategies with, and laugh with. In our short but powerful sprint, we covered quite a lot of ground and with focused determination got bids quickly for needed work: including, a new roof covered by insurance with her roofer, new HVAC, engineering reports regarding the foundation, and we cleaned like crazy. The result was a beautiful presentation of my parent’s home! We packed 36 showings in 10 days and we had multiple offers; one that knocked it out of the park. All this occurred in the midst of the Covid Pandemic. We worked very quickly to get a challenging home to be strong enough to win. Through it all Natalie was available in person and via phone, text and email. She is very thorough; detail oriented; and knowledgeable about what works in real estate to sell a house. She was by our side providing valuable input throughout the process which resulted in a successful outcome. We greatly appreciated her help and would recommend her highly to anyone in need of an excellent realtor.

A victory shout goes out to Natalie Marrone @ KW Realtors for the very quick and successful sale of our house in Chapel hill. We enlisted Natalie to sell our house and we knew this task required patience, professionalism, perseverance and skills; that's why we chose her. Natalie took on the task immediately. She screened the house, made suggestions and went to work. The suggestions she recommended for improvements were as follows: clearing the lawn for curb appeal, minimal painting to update the kitchen, exterior house and window cleaning, professional house cleaning and house staging. Within two days the house was under contract at above asking price. Natalie promptly responded to our calls, inquires and concerns. We thoroughly trusted her in all decision makings. All transactions were handled professionally. Thank you Natalie Marrone for a job well done!
- Ruth and Sam Johnson, Sellers
We recommend Natalie highly to any home Buyer(s) or Seller(s) because of her honesty, her quick and thorough knowledge of the confusing legal areas in real estate, her hard work, and her absolute professional stance. Here are some vignettes of our interactions with Natalie. We met Natalie Marrone at an open house in the early stages of home shopping. Although we had met several agents, Natalie listened carefully to what we were looking for. Her enthusiasm and expertise were evident at our first conversation. Our cautious disposition made us hesitant to sign an exclusive agreement, but Natalie offered to show us a house before signing the contract to demonstrate the kind of issues and assistance we could expect when viewing houses with her. We were impressed with her knowledge of potential issues and home repair at our next showing. After we signed the exclusive agreement, the resources Natalie provided to narrow our search were a great supplement to other online websites. The journey to our new home took over 5 months, and we are thrilled to be in our dream home now. Our new home purchase required an 18 day Due Diligence (DD) period versus the typical month. Natalie's knowledge and expertise with the different inspections and the several negotiations allowed us to meet this short timing and complete our purchase. Other realty agents and our lawyer were amazed at the speed and thoroughness with which our DD was completed.
-Bill Estes and Liz Connelly, Buyers
Natalie Marrone was our buyer's agent purchasing an older home in Raleigh. She went over and beyond of what you would expect from a real estate agent. I cannot imagine how this transaction would have been without her, she was on top of every detail in a timely manner. She spent significant time doing research on home price comparisons and researching building permits from the 90s. She has an amazing team set up, with the best mortgage company that saved us a lot of money, an amazing inspector, she even found us a great contractor for the renovations. Whenever we had questions or needed something she had the answers, and she had affordable solutions. I highly recommend her. She is also going to be our seller's agent.
-Agnes Szanto and Scott Hellmann, Buyers and Sellers
Natalie worked diligently and creatively with our family under difficult circumstances and a tight schedule. She responded to our needs very quickly, finding homes both off market and on market to get the best options possible for our family. She worked through many repair issues, worked with the city multiple times on zoning, finding building possibilities for the house we bought, called in vendors quickly, and had a very success negotiation at the end! I have appreciated collaborating with her tremendously.
Thank you Natalie!
-Christina Gangos and Michael Klien
Natalie Marrone is an extraordinary, multi-talented, real estate agent that impressed me with her enthusiasm, organization, professionalism and extensive knowledge of the real estate market. Natalie kept me up to date, always returned my phone calls and was always accessible throughout the process. Natalie worked tirelessly to get my house ready for sale, fought tenaciously on my behalf and over-came every obstacle we encountered. She achieved incredible results with my house make over through her team of licensed contractors, flooring and paint crews. My house sold within days of being on the market. It was a pleasure working with Natalie because she genuinely cares about her clients. I will gladly continue to use Natalie for all of my future real estate needs.
A Super Satisfied Seller!
-Steven Wong, Seller
Natalie recently represented me in the purchase of my first home, here in Chapel Hill! I moved in from another state, and it has been such a blessing to have Natalie, who is so knowledgeable not only about real estate in the area, but other necessary services, heading the process. From the beginning, she demonstrated a commitment to getting me into a home that I would love but one that would also be a smart financial investment. There was much that I didn't know about the home-buying process, and she was always patient and accommodating, while ensuring that the tedious parts were easy and straightforward. There wasn't a detail that slipped by her from our first search to closing, and she was very responsive whenever I needed anything. Most highly recommended!!"
-Ganga S. Bey, First Time Home Buyer
Before my wife and I met Natalie, we had no idea where to begin our journey to home ownership. A few weeks later we found/bought our dream home. Without Natalie's professionalism, determination, network and pure nature we would still be renting. I highly recommend Natalie as a realtor and home professional!!! As a first time home buyer I had no clue. Natalie navigated the territory for us with expert precision and detail. We are forever grateful for the hard work and dedication Natalie put forth to get us our dream home! In just one month we closed on our house and gained and extended family members! Thank you Natalie!
Eric and Jenny Gephart, First Time Home Buyers
Working with Natalie Marrone to sell my house has been an amazing experience from start to finish. I first met her through my previous job, and instantly recognized the energy she had and great charisma. When discussing my options and what was needed in order to prepare the house to put on the market, she was on top of any question I had promptly and with tremendous courtesy. From helping me find professional and affordable contractors (roofers, crawlspace specialist, landscapers, etc.), to helping me clean the walls in my house. After we were on the market and had an extremely well attended Open House, she was able get my house under contract much sooner than I had thought, and far exceeded the target sell price in a miraculous amount of time - 3 days! Even with needing to negotiate a complicated private road agreement, she still closed the entire deal within a month of going on the market. I look forward to working with her in the future on my next purchase and will absolutely tell all of my friends about her and would give her the highest recommendation.
-Ryan Craig, Seller
Natalie Marrone has helped my family both buy a home and sell a home. I cannot say enough good things about the experience I had with her. She always impressed us with her knowledge and guidance while we were looking at homes. If she didn't know the answer, she was quick to find out. I was impressed that she always seemed interested in expanding her knowledge and understanding. During due diligence, she was able to significantly lower my stress by having several contractors through whom she was able to call and expedite services. She was always easy to contact and seems to have an unending supply of understanding and compassion for nervous spouses. I would not hesitate to recommend Natalie Marrone to friends or family.
-Amy and Craig Wladyka, Sellers and Buyer
Natalie worked very hard to help me find a place that I liked that was within my price range, in the general area that I wanted and working with the fact that I had limited capital up front to work with. The place I wound up buying was a good deal but because of that. the purchase had to happen quickly and during Christmas (I closed 12/29). As a first-time homebuyer, I was a little out of my depth, but she helped me stay organized with meeting deadlines and making sure all of the paperwork I needed was completed. She is very friendly but also willing to be pushy when it comes to finding out information about a property on behalf of her clients. She was always available via text and phone call and email and followed up daily during the process and has followed up numerous times since I bought my new place. The inspectors she recommended were thorough and reasonably priced. She also recommended contractors to put in flooring and to paint and do some repairs. All of the work done was high quality and reasonably priced. I have friends who are moving to the area and I have recommended Natalie to them as I would to any of my friends or family. She is a great realtor!
