Fantastic experience: We had the pleasure of working with Galen Walter on a recent transaction. He was pleasant, accommodating, and proactive. We would definitely work with Galen again and highly recommend his services.

Fantastic experience: Galeen is Super awesome and nice and understanding he is always very helpful It makes everything way easier thank you so much

Fantastic experience: Galen is a great guy, not just a great realtor. I’ve gone through all sides of real estate transactions with Galen. Buy, sell, client in my business. He is the constant professional, and has an amazing team.

Fantastic experience: Galen and his team are always so helpful! They answer all of my questions and I feel like they genuinely have my best interest at heart. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I swear Galen took me around to 10 different homes all on the same day, he is really chill in the way that he is there to answer any / all questions but won't be on top of you the whole time like other realtors are following 3 feet behind. I kind of like to explore houses at my own pace but maybe that is my own interpersonal issues, I don't know. Galen is what you call a "halfway back" with expertise from "up north," South Florida, and WNC so if you are coming from one of those areas he can definitely help answer any questions you might have.

Fantastic experience: Galen is amazing. He's knowledgeable, professional, and really knows his stuff which is so important in this difficult market. He was so helpful and available to us and diligent. He was also instrumental in connecting us to local resources. Would definitely recommend using him or any of his team!!!

Fantastic experience: This dude is legit the BEST. As first time homebuyers he was perfect, explaining everything and walking us through the whole process with so much warmth, patience, and compassion— and we ended up in a house we absolutely LOVE! Then later we reached out to ask about possibly putting the house on the market, and he was completely honest and transparent about the market potential in a way that led us NOT to list it. We *already* trusted him, but that experience just proved how much integrity he has— he genuinely cares about people and puts them first, even when it means not getting a commission! I cannot recommend him enough!!

Fantastic experience: Galen went above and beyond for us, a delight to work with, can’t recommend him and his team enough!

Fantastic experience: A fabulous experience with this crew! They went above and beyond to ensure we had all information every step of the way, worked overtime to give us the best advantage for our home offer, and truly made the entire thing flawless. Thanks so much you guys! 10/10

Fantastic experience: Galen and his team are true professionals in the real estate industry. As a loan officer, it is a pleasure to work with the best of the best across the industry & that is what the Haven team is. 5 Stars all the way.

Fantastic experience: I have worked closely with Galen and the Haven team on multiple occasions, I can confidently say that they are the pinnacle of real estate excellence in the Asheville, NC area. Each client I've referred to them has returned with glowing reports of their experience. Galen Walter and his team's deep understanding of the local market and their tailored approach to each unique situation stand out prominently. They consistently go above and beyond! I highly recommend them for all your real estate needs.

Fantastic experience: We reached out to Galen about property on Lake James and could not have been more pleased with the experience. He was extremely responsive, with a few different options, and even directed us to a Financing team who were responsive as well. Can’t recommend him enough.

Fantastic experience: Galen’s deep knowledge of the local area and current real estate trends was evident, and he took the time to explain everything clearly. Whether it was answering our numerous questions or providing details about properties, Galen was always patient, professional, and incredibly thorough.

Fantastic experience: I cannot put into words how AMAZING this entire team but especially Matty for how amazing our experience has been during both buying and selling our home. We originally began searching to purchase our first home during the beginning of Covid and met Matty along the way. He was forthcoming with any and all information, didn’t misguide us and was always willing to answer all of our questions along the way. Fast forward to current. We decided to list our home and knew that Matty and the Haven team were the only people we wanted to do this process with! I cannot express how kind, informative and effective Matty and the Haven Realty team were throughout this process. Words truly do not express our gratitude! We have and will continue to recommend this group for future buyers and sellers alike!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely the easiest, best buying experience we've ever had. After buying and selling multiple properties over the last few decades, we decided to move to Asheville full time. The Haven team, from Galen to Emily to Mary and Charlene were absolute rock stars from beginning to end. Galen negotiated the deal and we were under contract in under 4 hours! Communication is the key to real estate, and not getting immediate answers when time is crucial can be super frustrating. This wasn't a thing with Haven. Galen and Mary answered everything quickly and with the needed information, and showed great patience for what I call "high anxiety buyers". Charlene kept the documents coming with clear instructions on what needed to be done, and always answered near immediately when we did have a question. All around, the team at Haven couldn't have done a better job. We'll be back when we add a STR as our next purchase. Thanks so much!

Fantastic experience: The first time we spoke with Galen, he immediately asked all the right questions in order to determine exactly what we were looking for. He took the time to get to know what we needed and helped us understand the many aspects of the broad area we were looking in since we didn’t have an exact town in mind. He is a super fast, efficient communicator and any time we needed a question answered or a tour scheduled, Galen or Scott found a way to make it happen fast. We appreciated their competence and diligence and highly recommend to anyone looking to buy or sell property in the area!

Fantastic experience: Galen and team went above and beyond for my family. We thought it was going to be very difficult to find a place when we were unfamiliar with the area but we were wrong. We highly recommend them.

Fantastic experience: My experience with Galen from Haven Realty was incredible. He made time for me to answer all questions he went out of the way above and beyond to make selling and buying a positive /fun venture ! He was patient with me ,walking me through the process step-by-step never pressuring me or swaying me one way, or the other I will, without a doubt use Galen at Haven reality for any, and all other realty needs in the future —- Kelly L

Fantastic experience: If you're looking to add the most value to your real estate deal then look no further than Galen at Haven Realty.

He's been wicked knowledgeable about the Asheville market and just real estate in general. I really can't say enough good things about the experience with him.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic team to work with. They’re very helpful and responsive. Also very knowledgeable and professional in this market.

Fantastic experience: Working with Galen and his team made home buying a breeze, even as a first time buyer! Coming in with no experience and little knowledge can be extremely intimidating. The Haven Realty Team really took the time to talk us/walk us through each step and never hesitated to RE-educate us with thorough explanations and impeccable patience along the way. Their knowledge and confidence allowed us to relax into the process and allowed us to feel confident moving forward to find the perfect home. They went to bat for us throughout the closing process and we truly felt that they had out best interest at heart. 10 out of 10 recommend this team no matter your home buying experience, their expertise will not disappoint!

Fantastic experience: Galen and team are top notch. Always willing to go above and beyond and are the number one advocates for their clients. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Galen, Scott, Charlene, Mary and the entire Haven Realty team were nothing short of amazing throughout the buying/selling process. They say teamwork makes the dream work but this team really does make the dream work.

Galen, Mary and Charlene were all very responsive and helpful any time questions arose. I can not recommend The Haven Realty Team enough!

Fantastic experience: Galen, Charlene, and the whole team were a joy to work with. Professional, prompt, and efficient. We could not have asked for a better experience when selling our home, a stressful process now especially. I invite anyone to give them the opportunity to help you through that process. Thanks again!

Fantastic experience: Galen and his team were professional and on top of every aspect of our home buying experience. I can not recommend them more highly if you are looking to purchase a home or cabin in North Carolina.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I had the most positive, 10/10, experience with Galen. He has a keen knowledge of how the market is moving and is especially helpful with how to appropriately prepare even the smallest details. Aside from all of the strategic knowledge, I think communication is Galen’s best asset. He’s so easy to work with and no question is a bad question to him. If the opportunity presents itself, I look forward to working with Galen again.

Fantastic experience: When my wife and I were searching for a home we found Galen and his team. After speaking with him we felt confident in his knowledge of the area and the real estate market. He steered us clear of some questionable properties and also gave us some really good advice and information. He was very responsive with all communication as well. Highly recommended!!!

Fantastic experience: Heather was pleasant to talk to and was understanding of my situation. We had a short initial conversation but I felt confident in her ability.

Fantastic experience: My husband and I recently worked with Galen to purchase an investment property in the Asheville area. It was our first time purchasing a home in NC and Galen was able to explain and walk us through all of the fine print associated with purchasing real estate in the state and area. We were impressed with how organized and communicative Galen and his team were. We saw multiple listings over a short weekend and submitted an offer which was accepted within a couple of days. We appreciated Galen's patience and guidance throughout the process. Whether you are looking for an investment property, second home, or primary home, we highly recommend working with Galen!

Fantastic experience: Unique perspective from a Renovations business owner that has worked with Galen over the years, I can say that there is no better realty team than Haven Homes. Our partnership consists of providing our mutual clients with convenient, high quality services. Anytime I meet clients that have benefited from Galen's services to discuss renovation projects, it never fails that they speak to how pleasant and seamless their home buying process was because of Galen and his team. Recently my Aunt and her partner were looking to sell their home and upgrade into a more private location. She came to me to refer a realtor and I told her Galen was hands down the realtor for her. Once again, Haven realty team did not disappoint and quickly helped her sell and purchase her dream home with outstanding customer support and superior services throughout the entire experience. Always going above and beyond, this is by far the best realty company I have ever worked. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic experience: Galen sold my land and I hired him again to buy a home! Everyone is this office is helpful, polite, and with a good personality! When I text Galen, he always contacts me immediately! Can't beat it!

Fantastic experience: Has been easy to communicate with, attentive, professional and consistent. Thank you, Galen!

Fantastic experience: The entire team from Haven Realty was superb during our home purchase process. From start to finish there was never any issue with communication and knowing what the next steps were. This was very important because the sellers agent was inept and we wouldn't have closed on time if it wasn't for the great work from Galen, Charlene and Mary. Thank you for everything!

Fantastic experience: Great Realty team!! I am very pleased with everything the group did for me and they make sure you are always informed throughout the entire process. Thank you all again❤

Fantastic experience: Galen and team worked tirelessly with us to find the right house in the insanely popular Asheville area. Thanks to the strong support, patience and guidance from the Haven Realty Team, we pushed through and found success. We have now closed on a house in a great part of town and we’re really excited about it.

Fantastic experience: Galen was great to work with. He knows all the ins and outs of Western North Carolina. Helped us find our dream home in a very challenging market. Definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: We had a great buying experience with Galen. After finding him on realtor.com he helped us understand every aspect of the house and was a great go-between for us and the sellers. We would definitely use him again for our next purchase in the area.

Fantastic experience: Galen and his team were invaluable during the purchase of our new home. I’m not sure we would have survived the remote purchase with another team. Thank you for making this a smooth and successful transaction, we are thrilled to be in our new home.

Fantastic experience: We had a wonderful experience working with Galen at Haven Homes Fathom Realty! We were relocating from MA to WNC and went through the whole process with Galen at our side! The day we flew out to look at homes in the area, Galen scheduled the day in the most efficient way possible, despite some of the homes being tricky to find and walked us through all the differences between buying a home in NC vs MA. He explained everything so well and answered all of our questions (as crazy as some of them probably were!). When things got chaotic, as selling and buying a home can be, Galen was always available to talk us down from the ledge and he handled all of our needs! From organizing inspections and the final walkthrough, as we drove the moving truck from MA to NC and finally into our dream home and property, Galen was with us every step of the way and for that we are so incredibly grateful! We’ve been here now for about a year and half and it’s everything we dreamed it would be- thank you Galen and everyone who helped us at Haven Homes Fathom Realty!

Fantastic experience: Galen and his team did an amazing job! We purchased our home only a few months after covid started and where we couldn’t travel in to view properties (across the country). I was nervous especially since this was our first home. Galen walked us thru every small step. He did such a detailed job doing videos tours for us & giving us honest pros and cons. He was always available to answer any and ALL frivolous questions we had & quick to respond! From beginning to end, he made this simple and easy. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Outstanding experience with Galen Walter as our agent in selling an old family home and property! He worked diligently to find a buyer and was in constant communication with us during the process beginning to end! I have nothing but high regards for Galen and Haven Homes at Fathom Realty! Highly recommend them for sure!

Fantastic experience: Working with Galen Walter from start to finish was more than helpful to find our family a home. When we first started searching he was available and willing to work with our specifications amidst a crazy pandemic, and I happened to be 9 months pregnant. Grateful to have one of the biggest stresses like buying a house, to be one of the easier challenges we faced at that time. Thankful to have that kind of support in a trusted realtor who felt like a friend who was looking out for our best interest.

Fantastic experience: Galen was great guy to work with I used to call him a lot and he always was there for me I recoment him 100 percent

Fantastic experience: Galen was extremely knowledgeable and always willing to assist us with our home purchase. He and his team were always quick to respond and had accurate information. He even paid to have our driveway plowed on our move-in day after it snowed over a foot.

Fantastic experience: Galen and his team were excellent to work with. They made the home buying experience very smooth and stress free. A top notch team that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a home in the Asheville area
