🎉We DID IT @cgrazioli 🎉
This journey started when I toured my clients home in Apex…
She said- “I’ll call you when we are selling our farm in Asheboro.”
Nearly THREE YEARS LATER-
Since our first hello, their “Country Castle” has been sold allowing them to embark on their new dreams in Alabama!!!
I will forever be in touch with them… especially for lipstick color choices and home decor opinions!!!
Thank you for allowing @hoovesandhomesrealty to “unlock your dreams”

Listening to what your #horse has to say is key. This is why @hoovesandhomesrealty @denisealalarealtor @corigrenier_realtornc listen to what our clients and their horses say both verbally and non verbally!!! We love what we do and who we do it for!!#realestate #horselover #apexnc #equinerealestate

Safety is key for your horses and for you, as their owner!!!
We know that with horses being prey animals we need to create an environment for our horses that not only keeps them secure, but prevents unwanted predators out (as best as possible). Walking your fence line daily and securing broken areas, removing nails or any uneven rough spots will protect not only them but their skin, and feet from unnecessary wounds!
Hooves and Homes Realty we know horses!

We did it… and it wasn’t easy!!! @corigrenier_houseonhope and @denisealalarealtor (@hoovesandhomesrealty) went on an adventure during this transaction!!!
Our clients were moving from up north to Lillington , NC which entails relocating his wife and two young kiddos!!
We showed many home - always focusing on their criteria- which we had to “reign” in due to misaligned priorities at the beginning of our journey.
We finally found “The ONE”- and this is where it took a turn!!!
TWO different sellers
TWO different sets of paperwork
TWO troubled air quality tests
But the TWO of us dug deeper, worked harder and created not only an offer protecting our client, but one that brought their family to NC feeling confident that they purchased a home that is not only clean and safe, but one that checks most all of their boxes including instant equity!
If you are looking to buy or list your property and want TWO Realtors who work smarter and advocate harder for the clients …

Connection and relationships are everything
Bond out of the saddle before directing them in the saddle.
Building trust with our horses and connecting with them through a feel, a built understanding that forms by listening and starting to speak the same language has drastically changed our communication and relationships with each of our clients !!
2025 has taught us to how to be patient active listeners, and aware of body language and little idiosyncrasies that are subtle to most but deafening to our trained ear. We do not just listen to our clients and the market we HEAR them, apply what brings success and joy, then take the reigns, saddle up, and drive forward jumping hurdles, pivoting when needed and crossing the finish line with our clients cheering all the way HOME!

Horses are prey animals making safety their top priority and response to other animals and humans …
Know the hierarchy of your herd so you can manage your crew with your safety and theirs being top priority…
And remember to follow the process when introducing a new member into the herd!!
