EXPERTLY DRIVEN. PERSONALLY INVESTED.

Small-Town Service. Big-Time Results.

We built SLATE after seeing a gap between the polished professionalism of big-city firms and the personal, relationship-first service of small-town agents. We believe people shouldn’t have to choose between the two — and here, they don’t. At SLATE, clients get both: big-time results with small-town service.

Founded by Laura Pendergrass and Daniel White, together they bring backgrounds in real estate law, real estate investing, commercial development, and marketing to offer clients the level of insight and service typically found in big-city firms, paired with the kind of local knowledge that only comes from living, working, and raising families right here.

Whether you're searching for a weekend retreat on Kerr Lake, building a custom home on a quiet lot in Franklin County, looking to own a piece of history in Oxford's charming downtown, finding your place along Wake County's northern edge, or settling into Warren County where neighbors still wave as you pass by, we can help you find the place that feels like home.
