I am writing to inform anyone looking for a home to contact Donna Puckett, Realtor @ Next Home. She will definitely find you your next home. You have to give her all of your “check-off-items” so that they can be included in the search. Donna Puckett is always available and listens tentatively, what I really like about Donna Puckett is that she is always friendly and welcoming, and that is a great quality for the person to have when finding you your dream home, whether it’s your first, second or even your third home, it’s a dream home.

Mandy Witte was our agent for both buying a new home and selling our current one, and we couldn't be happier with the experience! We chose Mandy because she is a good person and friend, but I'm really glad we chose her because she is proactive and skilled and got the job done in a crazy market!
As our buyer's agent, Mandy was incredibly patient as we explored options all over the area—from Thomasville to Summerfield. She took the time to help us narrow down our preferences and we found find the perfect fit. Her skillful handling of negotiations was impressive, and she worked diligently to ensure we got the best deal possible.
As our seller's agent, Mandy went above and beyond to get our house sold. She marketed the heck out of it, not just on Realttor.com but in other places too. She held 4 Open Houses and followed up personally with each person who attended. She helped us declutter and stage the house for showings and sent us follow up texts with feedback and updates. We almost gave up a few times, it took some time and plenty of showings, but she just kept trying new approaches and she found us a qualified buyer.
Mandy’s positive attitude and organized approach made what can often be a stressful process feel almost enjoyable. She was in constant contact with us, keeping us informed and answering any questions we had, even after the closing. If you're looking for someone to represent you in a real estate transaction, I highly recommend Mandy Witte. She’s the best!

I couldn’t be happier with Kristina as my real estate agent! She was very knowledgeable, professional, and did an amazing job helping my fiancé and I find the right home for us. She was very helpful throughout the entire process and always there to answer all of my questions. She made a stressful process go very smoothly. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

I came to Greensboro without any intention of moving here in September of 2025. After spending a few weekends here, I realized that I loved it and wanted to move here sometime in 2026. I thought I’d spend a weekend in October going to a few open houses to see what the market looked like and get a feel for the area. That weekend changed everything.
The first open house I walked into was hosted by Kristina, and I ended up being the only person there for almost the entire time. We talked for nearly 90 minutes and instantly clicked. In that short time we somehow covered everything. It felt like talking to someone I had known for years, not someone I had just met.
Over the next three weeks, I drove up on weekends and Kristina showed me what must have been close to 20 houses. She was incredible the entire time—always organized, always on top of scheduling, and constantly keeping me updated. We laughed until we cried in some of those houses and joked that I had somehow managed to pick some of the weirdest homes in all of Greensboro to tour.
There was one house we visited three times, and I was finally ready to put in an offer when it sold the very same day I planned to submit it. Kristina never missed a beat and kept things moving.
Then one night, close to midnight, a house popped up on Zillow. I remember saying to the person I was with, “I’m going to buy that house.” I texted Kristina right away to tell her I wanted to see it as soon as possible. By 10:30 the next morning we were walking through the front door. She called the seller’s agent to get answers to all of my questions, and by noon we were in the office writing the offer.
Once the offer was accepted, she handled everything so I didn’t have to stress. At the same time, I had to get my current home on the market and sold as quickly as possible, which meant repairs, cleaning, packing, and preparing for a move. I was managing the sale of one house and the purchase of another completely on my own during November and December—between Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s—while working 60 hours a week.
I had a 3-bedroom, 2,000-square-foot house full of things to pack and organize, and it was overwhelming at times. But I never once felt alone in the process. Kristina was always there. We talked constantly—not just as agent and client, but as friends. I would vent about everything going on with the sale, the purchase, and the move, and she would listen, offer advice, and keep me grounded. And we still managed to laugh through it all.
I closed on my Greensboro house on December 18 and moved in on December 20. The movers had just pulled out of the driveway, leaving my new house completely full of boxes and chaos, when Kristina showed up ready to assemble my kitchen island. While I was unpacking, she was putting furniture together.
“Above and beyond” doesn’t even begin to describe how she works.
If I hadn’t met Kristina, I honestly don’t know how I would have gotten through this process. Managing a home sale, purchase, and move on my own during the holidays while working nonstop was incredibly difficult, but she made it manageable every step of the way.
If I ever sell this house (which I probably won’t—I’m not doing this again!), I would absolutely work with her again.
I truly cannot recommend Kristina enough.

Donna was a true blessing to have as a realtor!
We are so thankful to have found Donna. Her experience and knowledge was so helpful. She went above and beyond throughout the entire process. We listed our house with her on a Tuesday and were under contract by Friday. She treated us like family. I cannot recommend her enough! I wish there were more than 5 stars!

My husband, Nathaniel, and I had an awesome experience with David as our realtor! We were a bit nervous about our home buying experience, as we were relocating from out of state and were not familiar with the area. David made the process so easy and smooth. He was able to give us information about areas we were looking (schools, convenience to grocery shops, safety) and help us find a home we love! His expertise with home renovations was also a huge blessing as he was able to point out areas where work would need to be done or where there may be a potential concern. He even came over the day after we moved in to connect our dishwasher as my husband had misplaced the keys to his toolbox. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you David!! We love our home and are so thankful for your help is us finding it!

Kristina worked very hard in helping us find a home that fit our needs. In advance of physically looking at houses, she did research and identified properties that she felt met our requirements/desires.
She was available at all hours to answer questions and provide information that was critical to our decision making. When asked a question, she did the needed research and provided the answer in a timely fashion.
After we made the decision to buy, she was still available to help with property questions, closing questions etc. She was truly an outstanding resource in all aspects of the home purchase process.
She treated us like "family" and told us from now on we were part of her family.

Very Pleased
Donna was extremely nice and very professional. She was referred to us by a friend. We will definitely refer her if we hear of someone wanting to sell property. We were dealing with Medicaid estate recovery. There was a lot of paperwork that we didn't understand, but Donna took care of it all. We really appreciated her knowledge of what had to be done. We highly recommend her.

My husband and I have worked with Donna several times over the past 14 years
My husband and I have worked with Donna several times over the past 14 years. She helped us with the purchase of the house we currently live in, helped to sell a condo that had been used as a rental unit, helped us search for the "forever" home we recently purchased, and will soon help us sell our current house. Donna is always patient and attentive to our needs. She has been an excellent resource for information about the market and in making introductions to vendors to assist with renovation and repairs. Not only is she our "go-to" realtor, Donna has also become our friend. You won't be disappointed when working with Donna!

David Bender is a home-run choice when it comes to realtors. We bought and sold our houses with him and he was always responsive, professional, and knowledgeable. But, most importantly, he was truly an advocate for us - making sure that repairs were done on our new house and helping us to get the best price in our house purchase and sale. With his guidance, we were able to get our house sold within a week of it going on the market and he helped us get our dream house even though there were multiple offers. David will always go above and beyond for you and I can't recommend him highly enough!

Kristina is a consummate professional who was tireless in her efforts to help me find my forever home. Her knowledge of all things real estate related is unparalleled. She knew all the questions to ask, helped me make a well-thought out offer that included an addendum that protected me financially if the house didn't appraise at my offering price. Kristina also ensured that every step of the way from offer to closing went smoothly. There was absolutely nothing she didn't think of, which gave me a lot of assurance and peace of mind as a first time homebuyer. Kristina genuinely cares about her clients and I cannot think of anyone who better embodies what a realtor should be. I wish I could give her a hundred stars instead of just five!

David gave us great direction when it came to selling our house. Anything he recommended we do to help sell the house, we did and what do you know? The house was under contract in 2 days. He was extremely helpful in helping us find the house we bought too. He knew exactly what we wanted and needed and spent so much time looking at houses with us. He was quick to help and reply with anything we needed. He went above and beyond.

Kristina, it was a joy and a pleasure working with you as my real estate agent. You made the entire process so much easier and truly went above and beyond. I am still impressed that you were able to find and close on my forever home within just one month.
You were always available whenever I had a question and boy they were many, my texts and calls were answered immediately. Since I was a buyer from out state, you became my eyes and ears, making many trips to the property to ensure everything was being handled properly. Your presence throughout this journey was invaluable.
I cannot say enough about your professionalism, I truly feel like I gained a friend in the process. I will happily refer any family or friends thinking of moving to North Carolina to you.
I look forward to staying in touch.

A FIRST CLASS AGENT who puts her customers first!!
Donna was a complete joy to work with. As an out-of-state seller, Donna took the reins and made the selling process as easy as it could have been. She was 'spot on' with her recommendations for repairs and had contractors who performed great work at very reasonable rates. Her skills and knowledge of the market was exceptional and resulted in a selling price 11% over asking. Thank you SO MUCH Donna!

Kristina is the best real estate agent I could have ever hoped for. She found me a house that I love and worked continuously to make sure the transaction went smoothly. She has a trustworthy team of excellent home inspectors and other professional service providers that made sure the house was up to code and ready to move in. Kristina also made buying the house fun and enjoyable - the seller even called Kristina a "Peach" to work with. I would give Kristina 6 Stars!!!!!! Thank you Kristina!

Mandy was top notch from beginning to end of my home buying process. Her communication was second to none and she was always quick to respond anytime that I had a question no matter how small. Mandy was a fantastic advocate for me as I navigated through issues with the builder, she was quick to get in front of known issues and handled any of my concerns with the builder which took a ton of stress off of me.
I would recommend Mandy to anyone looking for a realtor and I would use her again with zero hesitation. It is obvious that she loves what she does and she’s damn good at it too.

She answered all my questions quickly and let me know everything that was happening. Everything was done on time and done correctly. I will certainly pass her name along to anyone thinking of selling their house.
