It's Just Not Possible To Look For A Home In An Older "In-Town" Neighborhood Near Duke University And Not Come Across The Iconic Oval Sign For "Tim Hock Properties". Often Said To List Some Of The Most Beautiful Homes In Durham, Tim Has Turned Buying & Selling A Certain Type Of Home Into An Art Form. Meticulous, Precise, Thorough, Detail Driven, Neighborhood-centic And Impeccable Are Just a Few of The Adjectives That Have Been Used To Describe Tim and The Beautiful Homes He Is Associated With And Routinely Lists. With A Definite Specialty in Renovated Craftsman Bungalows and Craftsman-esque, "In-Fill" New Construction Homes, Tim Has Been Beautifying Durham Since 2001, "One Porch Swing At A Time." Tim Works Very Closely With Several Premier Small Volume Builders And The Results Are More Often Than Not Jaw-Dropping Properties That Inspire And Awe. Tim's Buyers Clients Trust Him Because They Soon Realize That As Tim Likes To Put It " I am NOT A Bakery, I Do NOT Sugar-Coat Anything!" A Resident Of Old North Durham Since 1996, Tim's Preferred Listing Locations And Buyer Neighborhoods Are Kid-Friendly, Dog-Friendly, Diverse Urban Neighborhoods With Sidewalks on Both Sides Of The Street And Large Oak Trees Such As Those Found In Trinity Park, Old West End, Trinity Heights, Walltown, And Of Course, Cleveland-Holloway Where Tim's Influence From Half A Decade Ago Still Echos And Continues To Help Make Cleveland-Holloway The Desired Locale It Has Become. Somewhat More Involved In Design, Color & Finish Decisions Than Most Realtors, Tim Believes Strongly in the Fundamentals - Location, Floorplan, and QUALITY! Tim's Approach Is Decidedly Hand's On, And Rather Old School. Sure, He Has A Twitter Account, But He Has Never Tweeted, And Has Forgotten His Twitter Password. And In His Spare Time, More Often Than Not You Can Find Tim Working On His Own Old Home With His Faithful Canine Companion "Fannie Mae" By His Side."I Think Every Realtor Should Be Required To Renovate And Then List And Sell An Old Home" Tim Proclaims, "Because That's When I Realized How Much The Smallest Details Really, Truly Matter". If Asked, Tim Will Tell You, "I Have The Best Job And The Best Clients In The World, Working In A City I Know & Love, Doing What I Want To Do And Being Allowed To Always Do It Very, Very Well. Nothing Makes Me Happier Than Walking By A Former Listing And Seeing How Well The Builder's Design Decisions Have Timelessly Aged. "And, To Know I Had A Small Part Of The Final Outcome Of The Finished Product Is Very Fulfilling To Me." Arguably Tim's Common-Sense Influence And Hand's On Approach Will Become His Best Legacy.
