Pete Marston and his team at were incredible to work with, not once, but twice now. Five years ago, Pete helped us purchase our home in Chapel Hill, and after recently closing on our new home in North Raleigh, I can confidently say he continues to set the standard for what a great realtor should be. This move came with very specific needs for our family, especially in finding a home that would better support our special needs son. Pete truly listened, understood what mattered most to us, and helped guide us through the process with patience, professionalism, and genuine care. From searching for the right home, to navigating negotiations in a competitive market, to making the entire closing process feel smooth and manageable, Pete and his team were responsive, knowledgeable, and always had our best interests in mind. If you’re buying or selling a home, I highly recommend Pete Marston

We were extremely fortunate to work with Pete in finding our forever home and the process could not have been any better. From our first meeting, we knew we were working with a highly knowledgeable professional, expert in his trade and the local market. Pete’s thorough preparation for our visits provided many options for our new home and made the process extremely easy. Pete clearly understood our requirements and was able match our desires in every instance. As a new build and the turbulent time for construction, Pete stayed with us during the entire process through closing. His experience and insights in the new construction process were indispensable and a life saver. Pete helped push the process and continued to provide updates to relieve the stress. In the end we could not be happier with the outcome. If you are looking to buy or sell in the Triangle area (or even thinking about it), you need to give Pete Marston a call.

Wow! We have nothing but kind words for Pete and Jan at Relevate. Pete is an amazing Realtor and we highly recommend working with him. As a military family navigating a home purchase from out of state during a difficult buying season, and then later navigating a move during a home build, we could not have asked for a better Realtor to help us purchase a home we love. His consistent communication and advice during this process has been invaluable. He is very knowledgeable and stays a step ahead during the entire process. He removed a lot of stress and concern when we were dealing with our builder. He remained calm, in control and very sincere during this process. It is exactly what we hoped for in an agent. We highly recommend working with Pete and eagerly refer him to anyone we meet looking for a Realtor.

Pete and his team were great throughout the whole process of purchasing my first house in North Carolina. Not only was Pete great, but the recommendations he provided for contractors and recommended lender all turned out to be great people as well. Being a member of the military, I am not very familiar with Raleigh and the surrounding areas and Pete helped provide insight into the best living areas based on my interests. I felt comfortable picking up the phone and calling Pete at any time. He and his team kept me up to date with the process and I was never left wondering where I stood. I felt that Pete had my best interest in mind and was very knowledgeable about the industry. I would absolutely recommend him and wish I could use him in the future.

We were blown away by Pete’s knowledge about the homes he showed us. We learned something new every time we saw a new house. We were under contract within the first week of knowing him and in our new home in less than a month from the first time we spoke! He was a pleasure to work with and we highly recommend.

Pete and his partner, Jan, helped us find the perfect home! They were extremely knowledgeable related to real estate in the triangle and helped us to find exactly what we were looking for. Even though the prospect of becoming a first-time homebuyer in this climate was daunting, Pete took his time to explain everything thoroughly, as well as what to expect with every step. He truly went above and beyond throughout the process!

I had an excellent experience with Pete. Due to my job schedule being very unique, Pete worked with me and made the process as easy as “signing on the dotted line”. He made sure everything was completed to the highest standard and I would recommend him to anyone!

Pete was an amazing help for us and delivered exceptional service as we were buying from out of state. Pete helped us through every step of the way to ensure we had a smooth buying process and even spent time after our purchase making sure that everything worked out as it should. We plan to use Pete as our agent in the future.

Pete and his team are excellent, and made the home buying experience easy and stress-free. He is extremely knowledgeable about the area and what to look for in homes and specific neighborhoods. I really appreciated his no-pressure approach to the whole process, and would highly recommend him to anyone!

Pete, Jan and the team are awesome! They helped and patiently guided me through the entire process. Pete and I communicated for over 12 months until I was ready to purchase. He checked in on me periodically and set me up for success. The team stayed available and in constant contact during many evenings and weekends, and especially when paperwork needed to be done on time. They were very professional, and clear about what they were going to do, and they did it. I will definitely use them again.

Pete and his team from the start showed their knowledge and professionalism. Pete explained the market to us and ultimately left the decision making to us. By listening to his advice, our home sold in 4 days in a declining market. I could not be happier with our choice of realtor! If you are buying or selling, Pete and his team are by far the best around!

Pete and Jan are the best! Pete found us the perfect house for our family of 6 and we couldn’t be happier. They went above and beyond from the first showing through closing and beyond. This is the team that you want!

Pete and Jan provided exceptional service and helped our family find a perfect home at the right price in record time! We highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a home. Their dedication and expertise made the entire process smooth and stress-free.

We couldn’t be more pleased with our realtor in Raleigh. Pete and Jan are profesional, very knowledgeable regarding the real estate market and extremely personable. Pete found us a home that suits us to a tee and we closed with no hitches. We would highly recommend for any residential real estate opportunities or inquires in the Raleigh area.

I would give 6 out of 5 stars if I could. Pete & Jan are elite at what they do. They are patient, friendly, and knowledgeable about real estate in the area. I cannot recommend them enough!

I used Pete for multiple transactions over the years and will continue to come back to him. I recently reached back out to him to buy another house, and he instantly called me to chat as if it hadn’t been years since we last saw each other. Throughout the buying process, Pete and his team were always available and willing to answer any questions. I loved that we were in a text message chat so if any quick questions popped up, I could get a quick answer, or any reminders they needed to send me. We went on quite a house hunting adventure together. He and his team are quite dedicated to finding you the house that fits your checklist. They are honest with any obstacles, and I have appreciated their preferred vendors and the work they perform. I love my new house and I can’t wait to make it a home.

I just finished up the closing process, and it was incredibly smooth. Pete and the entire Relevate team made this process simple and manageable. He knows how to listen, balance multiple concerns, and ultimately makes selling your home dummy-proof. I’m very appreciative of the attention and care they put into making sure my home sold quickly and at a great price.

Pete is one of the best in the business. I was able to leverage him and his team to fix up my rental house in the matter of 3 weeks and get it on the market. It would have taken me 2 months if I would have done it by myself. He knows the market inside and out.

We just bought a house, and Pete was our guy. I cannot say enough good things about our experience. We were buying from 1000 miles away, so having someone local that could deal with all the issues when we could not, was a must. Pete (and his team!) delivered beyond our expectations. He was responsive, always making sure we stayed informed, and got everything done. Even when things got a little tricky (due to external factors), Pete guided us through the process, and made our purchase possible, and as stress-free as could be expected. I would recommend Pete with no reservations, and in fact, already have, to a friend looking to buy in the area.
