Tim Burrell

Tim Burrell’s experience as a Realtor since 1979 gives you the wisdom and tools you need when buying or selling real estate. While he is a full time Realtor, Tim is also licensed as an Attorney in California since 1973, so you get additional protection from my legal education. The NC Real Estate Commission has approved Tim to teach other Realtors, so he has more understanding of real estate sales. The two books he has written have been well received, even selling internationally. Being a member of the RE/MAX Hall of Fame and a Legend according to Prudential Real Estate indicate Tim is a leading Realtor. Tim’s strongest trait is his care and understanding for families, which came from being married the girl he held hands with in grade school since 1969. They have two children and six grandchildren. Tim’s hobbies are Windsurfing, Skiing, Flying Single Engine Airplanes and Golden Retrievers.
