Lee Waters

Owner/Broker/REALTOR®

The Triangle has been my home for 30 years and I am still energized by it daily.

Through all of my travels, both as a touring musician and as a dad hauling his family around the world, I’ve yet to find another place as full of life and character as this place we call home.

Whether it’s the buzz of academia in Chapel Hill and Carrboro (my home!), the vibrant food and arts scene in Durham or the big city living with the small town warmth of Raleigh, the Triangle has something for everybody. I’m a North Carolinian, but much of my early life was spent moving around the world as part of an active family, so understanding the importance of home, that feeling of space and ownership…that’s at the heart of who I am.

Searching for that space to call home can be so exciting. Selling that space that you’ve made a home can be both strategically challenging and emotionally gut-wrenching. My aim is to be the best teammate you’ve ever had. To me, that means helping you remove the mysteries of real estate. Remove the stress of transition so that you can focus on the joy and excitement of change. It’s what I do everyday, and I’m so excited to help you too.

LEE’S ACCOLADES

Multi-year winner “Best Real Estate Agent in Orange/Chatham County” INDY! Best of the Triangle

“Director” on Board of Directors, Orange Chatham Association of REALTORS 2019, 2020 and 2021

“We are so glad that we found Lee. After a cross-country move and with a deadline to be out of our rental house, Lee helped us land the perfect house (in a super competitive market!) that we plan to stay in for many years. He really matched our low-key style, was super easy to communicate with, was accommodating of our busy schedules with work and a three-year-old, and was always realistic, honest, and encouraging. He made the process super easy, even referring us to multiple vendors who could help with projects on the house. We so enjoyed working with him that I almost wish we would be in the market again, but instead I’ll recommend him to everyone else to work with!”

Mollie and John S.

“Lee was very fun to work with and made the arduous task of finding a home in Chapel Hill after moving from another state less frustrating. He reduced our stress with his amazing communication style and probably took the brunt of it on himself. He made the whole process less painful and we have since staying in touch with him getting and giving referrals- a relationship that continues today!”

Melissa and Mike A.

“I cannot recommend Lee Waters enough! He helped us buy our house and was so diligent, patient, kind and extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of buying in this area. We felt comfortable asking questions (no matter how dumb!), as well as felt supported and valued, and never judged! We never felt pressured or uncomfortable with any part of the process (something we had heard horror stories of from friends that worked with other agents). To say it was a pleasure to work with Lee would be an understatement!

We enjoyed the experience so much that we recommended Lee to anyone and everyone we knew who were in the market – each and every person that we recommended him to gave rave reviews after working with him and thanked us for the recommendation!

Thank you Lee for helping us find our house AND for making us look good when we recommended you to others! :)”

“Over the last 8+ years, my wife and I have bought several properties and sold one with Lee. The process itself is inherently stressful (even the fourth time around!), but Lee remains a calming force, even in the worst of storms (and there were a couple of bad storms). He is incredibly responsive, and provides both thoughtful advice and coaching. I don’t know when we’ll be buying or selling another property, but when we do, our first call will be to Lee Waters.”
