As a native of the Crystal Coast, I can’t think of another place I’d prefer to live. I love the land, the waters, the people, and our more simple way of life. I grew up here, raised my children here, and now, my grandchildren enjoy growing up in a coastal lifestyle. My love of the area, involvement in the community and experienced-based knowledge of a “local” have all contributed to a successful real estate career. This is my 29th year with Emerald Isle Realty; a success with a great company selling real estate in a place I love and call home. I would love the opportunity to use my knowledge and experience to find your perfect spot on the Crystal Coast. I am dedicated to knowledgeable, friendly service.

Favorite Things:

In my free time, I love spending quality time with my children and grandchildren. Family means everything to me, and I truly value staying connected to my loved ones and community. I also enjoy reading, walking, shopping, traveling, and giving back through volunteer work. Whether I’m exploring new places or relaxing with a good book, I’ve learned to appreciate the simple joys in life. You can often find me enjoying a great meal at some of my favorite local spots—Gaffers, Fish Hut, Caribsea, Rucker Johns, Big Oak, or the always-classic El's Drive-In.

Phyllis was amazing from the moment we started working together. She generously gave us her time long before we were in a position to buy, and expertly guided us through the process all the way to closing. We have our dream vacation home, and we owe it all to Phyllis!

Tim

Perseverance, determination, enthusiasm, and commitment characterize Phyllis Howard. She is an outstanding communicator, is resourceful, and responds promptly to text and email messages. I highly recommend her for any real estate needs.

Susie

This was our sixth time working with a REALTOR® for home selling/buying, my wife is a licensed realtor in two states, and Ms. Phyllis & Emerald Isle Realty were by far the most knowledgeable and professional we’ve ever had! Ms. Phyllis and Emerald Isle Realty have extensive experience and noteworthy tact in price negotiating as well as working with tenants in long-term & short-term rentals. If I were in the real estate business, I would want to learn from Ms. Phyllis and work for Emerald Isle Realty. If we can move back to coastal NC, we will most definitely seek her out for our next home!

Dave

Phyllis is simply the BEST REAL ESTATE AGENT WE’VE EVER KNOWN! Very knowledgeable about the Emerald Isle Market, very professional in her dealings and communications, and fun to work with! What else can I say? We’ve known Phyllis for over 30 years. You can trust Phyllis understands Emerald Isle, and it’s housing market.

Rick

We didn’t know buying a property could be so easy. Phyllis gave us everything we needed and made the process painless and stress-free. Her knowledge of the area is tremendous. I would recommend her and Emerald Isle Realty to anyone looking to buy in the area.
