MEET Tim Mock

I am a husband, a father, a grandfather, a REALTOR, an Army veteran, a 100 pint blood donor, a community volunteer, a former triathlete and marathon runner, a photograher, a West Point graduate, the Senior Vice-Commander of American Legion Post #187 in Wake Forest, a 13 year veteran of the Krispy Kreme Challenge, a hasher (drinkers with a running problem), a real estate investor, an HOA board member, an antique collector, a dog lover, foster parent for Saving Grace Animals for Adoption and a two time collard greens contest winner.  I also love giving back to my community and to my industry and I served on the Board of Directors of the Raleigh Regional Assocation of Realtors and as a Director of the RRAR Realtor Giving Network for six years.  I love what I do and that passion has earned me recognition as a member of the Top Producers Council.  My goal is to provide my clients with absolutely the best support, advice, and experience when buying or selling their home.  In 2024, I closed 34 transactions in the following Triangle areas:  Raleigh, Cary, Apex, Holly Sorings, Durham, Wake Forest, Clayton, Youngsville, Willow Spring, Angier, and Selma. My sales volume was $18 million and ranged from a $2.15 executive home in Raleigh to a $235k townhouse in Clayton.  I helped twenty buyers purchase a home and listed and sold fourteen properties. I work almost exclusively with sellers and buyers referred to me by previous clients.  I was extremley honored to receive the 2024 Regional Service Award for the Triangle Region from the North Carolina Association of Realtors in 2024.

You may be wondering what I do to provide my clients with an amazing experience.  First of all, I take the time to educate them on the process of buying or selling a home in North Carolina.  NC has something called the Due Diligence Period that is very unique and it is critical that you understand what it means to you as a buyer and/or seller.  Secondly, when touring properties with my clients I point out defects or potential issues that may require further investigation.  I go into the crawlspace and attic to identify issues that other agents miss.  No, I am not a home inspector, but my experience repairing and updating my four investment properties has given me the experience I need to advise my clients with confidence.  Thirdly, I help them do as much Due Diligence BEFORE making an offer to avoid having the transaction fall apart during the Due Diligence Period.  In the past eight years, I have only had three clients terminate the transaction during the DD Period and it had nothing to do with any needed repairs.  I point out potential issues like power lines, flood zones, drainage issues, potential zoning changes, school zones, and anything else that could negatively impact the desirability of a property.  Finally, I complete a detailed and accurate Comparative Market Analysis on properties to determine the Probable Sales Price, the first step in determining how to price a listing or how much to offer for a property.  

Before becoming a Realtor, I proudly served my country as an officer in the US Army after graduating from the United States Military Academy at West Point, NY (where I met my wife, Kel).  After fulfilling my military commitment at assignments at Fort Ord, CA, Fort Sill, OK, and Istanbul, Turkey, I started a career in the food service and retail industries.  Working for companies including Apple, Chevron, Target, KFC and Quiznos Subs, I moved with my wife and two daughters to states including VA, KY, NJ, CA and finally NC.  Raleigh has been our home since 2000 and we love living in the Triangle and all that it offers.  

To provide the best possible support for my clients, I obtained training and certifications including Graduate, Realtor Institute (GRI), Seniors Real Estate Specialist (SRES), Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR), Military Relocation Professional (MRP), Green Designation, At Home with Diversity Certification, Strategic Pricing Specialist (SPS), Commitment to Excellence (C2EX), and Certified Residential Specialist.  In order to give back to my industry, I applied for and was selected for the Leadership Academy of the Raleigh Regional Association of Realtors in 2017.  That prepared me for future positions on our association and working with non-profits in the area.  I served as a Board Member of the RRAR Realtor Giving Network, the charitable arm of our association, for six years.  I am very proud of many charitable projects they support, but especially for the apartments we furnish for the most deserving homeless families in our area.  

I am also an authorized agent for the Navy Federal Realty Plus Program and work with many active duty military members and veterans.  I love working with veterans and helping them take full advantage of their VA loan benefit.  I am also the Senior Vice Commander of American Legion Post 187 in Wake Forest, NC.  When I'm not with clients, I'm out enjoying my favorite events and locales in the Raleigh area including the following:  the Krispy Kreme Challenge, NC State Fair, NC State Farmers Market, ACC football and basketball, downtown Raleigh, Triangle breweries, Durham Bulls baseball, NC barbecue and my local YMCA.  The one trip I make every year is to the Army-Navy football game where I join 200 of my classmates at an epic tailgate before Army beats Navy.
