Personal Experience

Billy Harris first arrived in the US in 1992 and worked eight summers as a summer camp soccer coach in the Adirondacks in New York.  After graduating from Manchester Metropolitan University in England he set out on a four-year adventure, traveling and working his way through Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Thailand, and North America. He then settled here in Brevard  2002 and coached soccer at Camp High Rocks. 

Billy began his real estate career in Brevard in 2003 and has successfully been helping buyers and sellers ever since. An avid outdoor enthusiast, he enjoys mountain biking, hiking and running in DuPont State Forest and Pisgah National Forest. Most mornings before work you can follow him on his Peloton rides.

Billy also served on the Transylvania Youth Soccer Board and coached youth soccer. Family is an important aspect of his life. He and wife Kristy were married at “Pretty Place” at YMCA camp Greenville in 2003 and live in Cedar Mountain with their daughters Emma and Lucy. We can’t forget about their chocolate labs, too!

Billy believes his success in helping buyers find the perfect property in Western NC is, “due to enjoying what I do, caring about people and working hard.” Giving back to his community is also very important, and he is an active member of the Pisgah Forest Rotary Club.
