Red Bud, Yellow Snow, Spring Fever, Front Yard Farms & The Tastiest Town in the South
As I got into my car this morning I saw the first signs of Yellow Snow. Not the dreaded yellow snow made famous by Frank Zappa on his 1974 Album Apostrophe, but rather our annual NC spring “snowfall” of big yellow pollen coming from the long needles pines that are so abundant throughout the state.

Real Estate Review Orange County – June 2012
Mid Year Real Estate Review: The numbers are in and I’ve been busy crunching them (along with the carrots from our garden) and overall I have to say that things look better for the first half of 2012 then they did for the same time period in 2011. Here’s a quick overview with the areas [...]
Praise for NCHomesByLarryT
Larry helped me purchase a house in the Durham area. He’s great to work with. He did a good job of communicating with me, and the places he had me consider matched well. He’s not one of those realtors who just points out positive features — he is knowledgable about construction, and if he sees something wrong, he’ll point it out, and that let us quickly reject the poorer houses and spend more time on the good ones. When I had settled on a house, Larry did a very efficient job at lining up the va…Bought a Single Family home in 2012 for approximately $225K in Durham, NC
Larry Tollen was great! He’s wicked knowledgeable, not only about the areas & neighborhoods… but also mechanical things about the houses, too… He was very patient…( We probably looked at at least 30 houses or so!) he takes notes & actually listens to what you want & will go out there & find it for you! In addition to all of his knowledge & know how, he’s so nice & has a great sense of humor and my daughter & I had a great time going out with him on the house hunt. I would highly recommend Larry …Bought a Single Family home in 2012 for approximately $125K in Durham, NC
Larry Tollen is the most professional buyers’ agent that I have had. I’ve had several in my 60 + years. He is smart, personable, and a great negotiator. He was always accessible, answering my phone and email inquires quickly. He is a committed professional. I highly recommend him.Bought a Single Family home in 2012 for approximately $100K in Durham, NC
A great experience using Larry as our buyers’ agent. We were new to the triangle and Larry came highly recommended to us. His depth of knowledge made our home buying experience a very smooth one.Bought a Single Family home in 2012 for approximately $200K in Durham, NC
We doubled down with Larry in the winter of 2012 to sell our home and help buy a replacement. From the first phone call it was clear Larry was upfront and engaged which continued until both deals were closed and signed. Most impressive was his bead on market value and costs. He could dig up data to back it all up. Aside from his online skills he brings experience beyond the natural negotiating needs for the very practical needs you have as a homeowner. Sellers looking to market a home benefit fr…Sold a Single Family home in 2012 for approximately $225K in Durham, NC
We were just moving into this area from out of state. Larry was GREAT in getting us the best possible deal on our home and also advised us on how to take care of it with maintenance suggestions. Since we are not from here, we call Larry to find out who to call for service on our current home. He knows good and reputable contractors and service people whom all have done an excellent quality job on our home. Larry is GREAT, BEFORE, DURING and AFTER the sale of your home. Wouldn’t use ANYONE else!Bought a Single Family home in 2005 for approximately $225K in Hillsborough, NC.
