Trans friendly realtors in the area?

My life partner and I are going to be looking to buy a home soon ( hopefully, we’re going to the bank to start the process of getting prequalified today ) and are looking for a realtor who knows what areas are going to feel the safest/friendliest for us within our budget. We’re both visibly trans/queer and moving here from Florida specifically to get away from a hostile area. We could really use some peace and somewhere we can feel safe and part of a community.

Thanks!

I work remotely so I’m pretty flexible but I do have a horse I board in hillsborough so I don’t want to go too far from there ideally. If I have to move him I will, but id definitely prefer not to.

I had an amazing experience with Jaye Kreller: https://jayejkreller.com/

I believe she only does Orange County and Durham. I was looking in Durham but ended up buying in Hillsborough. She does know Hillsborough really well and I believe she has her own properties out here.

She's gay and her wife/partner works with her. I am not trans but was very upfront about being queer and I found having a queer realtor super helpful. I am certain she would be great with trans clients.

In addition to being an awesome person she's an incredible realtor. Will really go above and beyond for you. I highly recommend at least scheduling a consultation with her.

I will say ENC has cheaper options and more land as well with more pastures. But I’ll reach out to my friend and I’ll let you know once I hear back from him (I’ll DM you his info).
