About Clayton Nell

Drawn to Chapel Hill after the start of the millennium by the lure of its fabled music scene, Clayton Nell entered the real estate business by asking a series of questions. In 2004, for instance, he learned that a friend was a property appraiser--he wanted to know what it meant, how it worked. Within a matter of months, he was trekking around the state, appraising property and learning the ins and outs of real value. When he learned that another friend was an agent at a small Carrboro brokerage that had a tendency to do things differently, he again wanted to know what it meant, how it worked. By 2008, he was a young agent at the firm; by 2015, he was a full partner. And now, in 2019, he is the cofounder of Boro Realty. That past gives Clayton a welcome and uncommon insight that both buyers and sellers can use to their advantage: He understands not just how a piece of property looks and feels but also how it's been built, how it has been maintained, and how it will retain its value. "It gives me a different eye on the house, so that it's not just a commodity or a product," he says. "It helps keep buyers from overpaying, and it helps sellers understand what they have." But it's not just about making sense of dollars: Clayton likes how real estate means that all of his days are different, how it often sends him for walks in the woods, and how he can funnel his social values into his business by advocating for solar energy and sustainable design. To that end, he likes a good hike, a good trip along the river, and time with his family of four in Carrboro.

We are forever grateful for Amy helping us with selling our house. She responded quickly and patiently to all our questions, granting tremendous understanding for the emotional aspects of selling a home and helping us prioritize the most important repairs to do before listing. If she did not know the answer, she would humbly admit so and do some research before getting back to us. Passionate about her work, Amy was thorough and focused, not leaving anything unresolved or undone. We appreciated that she helped us stay on track, moving at the necessary pace without being pushy. She went above and beyond, putting in extra work to make the house shine for selling. The combination of her knowledge and caring energy made a typically stressful process go smoothly from beginning to end.

My partner and I worked with Amy to sell our condo, and I'm so glad we did: she made what would have otherwise been a stressful transition seamless and pain-free! She coordinated the showing and closing around our busy travel and research schedules to give us peace of mind AND a return well over our asking price. Work with Boro; no second thoughts needed!

Amy Pulliam was my broker for our first house. She was absolutely terrific. She listened to us and was able to guide us where we weren't sure what to do. She kept up with us and was very kind and responsive throughout the whole process. She helped schedule inspections and get quotes and dealt with so much of the work of actually buying the house. I am so thankful she was so wonderful. I highly recommend her for a first time homebuyer!

Boro, and especially Amy, were incredible to work with. From the initial meeting through closing the communication, support, and coordination were absolutely top shelf. When I had to leave town for work, I was able to trust Amy to coordinate cleaners, photographers, pressure washing, listing, showings, and open houses. She even got my mail and watered plants so they looked good for the showings! Selling a house can be stressful but Boro made it a simple, straightforward process.In the end our house sold for $46k over asking, and set a record sale price for the neighborhood. It was so nice to work with a local small business; Amy was a delight and I would highly recommend Boro Realty to anyone, buying or selling.

Cant recommend Amy enough! My partner and I met Amy at an open house and immediately appreciated her kindness and warmth. We are first time homebuyers and recent transplants to the Triangle and she helped us navigate this crazy market with great knowledge, professionalism and attentiveness. We had an offer accepted much more quickly than we anticipated and couldnt be more grateful, but feeling like our time hunting with Amy got cut short was bittersweet. Were excited to make our new house a home, but would not hesitate to work with Amy in the future!
