What Our Clients Say

Phi-Van helped us find a home through a cross-country move from Los Angeles. She understood the nature of my family and always recommended a home that would fully address our needs and kept a watch out for potential issues in homes and locations. She made sure the home would not be near a main road because our kids may run into the street or the distance from nearby stores. She looked out for us from the...

What Our Clients Say

I highly recommend Phi-Van Cherry whom I met when I joined the Hendersonville Woman’s Club (HWC) a few years ago. In that time I have developed a tremendous admiration for this woman. She has a tremendous drive to create success not just for herself but those around her. When she sets out to do something you’d best get on it with her or get out of the way. Now she is President of the HWC and sees everyth...

— Ann

What Our Clients Say

I have known Phi-Van since 2020 as she was the realtor for the land my fiancé and I purchased. And now, she was the realtor that helped us sell the home we built on that land. Buying, building, selling is one of the most stressful events I think someone can go through and Phi-Van has a way of making the process seamless and less stressful. Not only does she have extensive real estate knowledge she also k...

— Erin

What Our Clients Say

Phi-Van was a referral from another realtor. We are out of state buyers and had no contacts in the area. The whole process is as about as smooth as you could hope for. We had an initial video meeting to talk about what we wanted and shortly thereafter had a full inbox of potential sites. We worked through those, refined things and settled on a list of roughly 15 sites. Phi-Van gave us a full Friday /Satu...

— Tom

What Our Clients Say

Phi-Van is an incredibly hard worker and helped make it possible to get our house on the market right away.

We used Phi-van to buy this home as a first time buyer two years ago and we are so happy to have her help us as first time seller.

— Emi S

What Our Clients Say

Phi-Van went way above and beyond for us buying our house. We were buying while living in another state and Phi-Van did video showings for us and gave us plenty of information so we could make an informed decision. We very much appreciated her diligence in helping us get a home in this very competitive market!

— Kathy S

What Our Clients Say

— Shipwreck John

What Our Clients Say

An amazing realtor, kept me in the loop each step of the way, assisted me in dealing with an incredibly icy buyers realtor as well as an amazingly inept buyers attorney. I'd recommend Phi-van to anyone who needs a great realtor with unbelievable marketing skills!

— Janet

What Our Clients Say

5 stars for Phi Van Cherry as our real estate agent. I reached out to her in August 2020 from out of state and by October 2020 we were closing on our beautiful new home in Hendersonville, North Carolina. Phi Van was efficient and professional in sending us homes to look at online before we came to town and then once in town she showed us homes for 3 straight days. Phi Van also made an inspection on our n...

— Heather Weinstein

What Our Clients Say

Phi-Van is great! Our realtor in Florida recommended her and she was perfect. We flew in for a weekend and saw every house we could. Phi-Van made sure we saw those plus others. She pointed out all the good, questionable and worthy parts of the home and area. She went out of her way to "show" us a house after we were back home. We put in a bid and from then on, she made sure we were covered in every way p...

— Caroline Elliott

What Our Clients Say

We moved up here for a job and did not have any idea of where we wanted to live and no market expertise. Phi was always available (day and late nights) to assist us with finding the right home. She was always prompt, professional, courteous and remains a friend long after closing on our home.

— jmb236

What Our Clients Say

Normally purchasing property can be so stressful but Phi-Van made this process seem so smooth and exciting for my fiance and I. We were property shopping out of town and were there for only 1 day and our previous realtor was a no show and Phi-Van was contacted by a friend and immediately came to our rescue...on a weekend! She was there every step of way giving us no time to feel any pressure or stress. W...

— Erin

What Our Clients Say

We are very lucky to have met Phi-Van early on in August 2018 when we were just starting to look into moving in the area! Not only was she super patient with us being first home buyers, but she went above and beyond to make sure that we would find the best starter home. Her expertise in buying (and selling) helped us make our decisions when it came to putting in our offers. We recommend working with Phi-...

I am very pleased with the service and professionalism that Phi-Van provided for us in our home buy.

She helped with all aspects of the final purchase and we are very pleased with our new home.

— David V

What Our Clients Say

Phi-Van was an excellent realtor. She took the time to show us several properties and was very patient with us when we were indecisive. She then did the research to find us a very good deal on a builders interest rate to allow us to buy a luxury home we would not of otherwise been able to afford. She even got the price of the home down for us on a technicality. Would highly recommend to anyone buying or ...
