Emily McBrayer Broker/Realtor

Trying to rent out a property remotely is ridiculously difficult; when I needed to leave Raleigh for Washington, D.C., thanks to a great work opportunity in 2011, my house just would not sell. I was distraught--how could I rent it from far away? Fortunately my realtor recommended Block & Associates, the group who was managing the property she was renting. Boy was she right!! For the past four years, things have been so smooth and easy that most of the time, I didn't remember that I was renting out my townhome. Emily in particular was a joy to work with while trying to find new tenants; Courtney saved my bacon a number of times when I was getting the house ready to go on the market in 2015. I am about to sell the home, but I have recommended Block's management services to just about everyone who will listen to me. Yes, there are always some bumps no matter *what* company you use, but with Block, there will be a significantly smoother ride!!

Emily was fantastic, she was easy to reach and responded to emails and calls promptly. She showed us the homes we were interested in and they were great. We had to move within 2 weeks so were in a rush. The only reason I took away a star was the application itself. It only let us attach one file but there are two of us who needed to attach pay stubs and the back ground check company didn't take notes when they spoke to us multiple times to always ask for more items when they should have asked us in one call, but that is another company. Just maybe review your application process?

I've been a customer of Block and Associates for a little over a year. The associates are kind and responsive and the process is smooth and easy. They are a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend them! I worked with Emily McBrayer, she is the best.

From the moment we discovered Block & Associates Realty, we knew that it was the best choice for us. Emily (McBrayer) has been phenomenal! She has been very professional, knowledgeable, prompt and extraordinarily kind. This company is so organized with their easy to use and convenient “Docusign” paperwork, online applications, and professional business methods. They offer a very structured and worry free service to property owners needing to find good tenants. The process was quick and trouble free. Don’t hesitate to contact Block & Associates Realty today. We know they’ll take good care of you. We couldn’t have dreamed of a better experience…

Emily was my agent and right from the start she was so kind and friendly. My husband and I decided to put our house up for rent rather than selling. This was our first experience so we were very anxious. When I spoke to Emily on the phone and then met her I felt like we were going to be in good hands. She understood the situation we were in and how we needed things to move very quickly. She was INCREDIBLY EFFICIENT!!! Our house was listed for at least 20 days and now we have INCREDIBLE tenants that I couldn’t be more grateful for! Emily takes a lot of pride in finding the right tenant for your house. My current tenants have told me all of their terrible experiences dealing with realty agents and how they found Emily absolutely delightful, they couldn’t have been happier with how things worked out so smoothly. I researched plenty of agencies and felt that Block & Associates was the choice for us. I am overwhelmingly pleased with how everything has worked out.

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Emily McBrayer with leasing our property. She was always very professional, knowledgeable and helpful with the process from start to finish. We were very pleased with her expertise, and we now have great tenants leasing our home. I highly recommend Emily with Block & Associates.
