Jennifer Harvell
As a licensed REALTOR® and Broker with Big Rock Real Estate and Property Management, I focus on helping my clients buy and sell residential and investment properties in Carteret County, and the neighboring coastal areas. My passion for this region is evident in my extensive knowledge of the latest market trends, educational districts, community insights, and essential services such as mortgages, insurance, and inspections. Committed to delivering outstanding results and service, I leverage my extensive experience in real estate to assist you whether you're looking to purchase or sell a property.
Having been raised in Down East and Beaufort, my roots in the area run deep. As a student, I excelled academically and participated in various extracurricular activities such as sports, theater, creative arts, and color guard, culminating in my graduation from West Carteret in the Class of '96. In 2002, I obtained a degree in Business Management. During and after my educational pursuits, I contributed to my family's restaurant, Beach Tavern in Atlantic Beach, NC. Subsequently, I embarked on a real estate career in Wilmington, NC, concentrating on pre-development communities around Holden Beach and Myrtle Beach, focusing on high-volume land sales with Waterfront Properties, LLC. In 2004, I returned to Carteret County to establish Harvell Real Estate, which is now integrated with Big Rock Real Estate & Property Management, LLC. I am fortunate to have the support and love of a family man, his four wonderful children, and three playful dogs. My leisure activities include family time, boating, travel, gardening, and involvement in various youth programs and organizations.
