I fell in love with real estate after purchasing my first home and having such an incredible home buying experience, which was the catalyst for me to pursue my real estate career. I always knew that I loved working with people. Combining my talents of capturing an authentic smile in photography and the excitement of finding the right home for my clients makes real estate the perfect blend and fit for me. I decided to join The Rachel Kendall Team because of their unmatched reputation in the Triangle and contagious positivity throughout the company. I value these qualities and carry them into my own interactions by being knowledgeable, sincere, and kind.

After returning to Raleigh with a corporate relocation in 2002, there is always one constant that has remained the same: There’s no place I would rather call home than the Triangle. Having grown up in a military family, I had the opportunity to experience many different locations and cultures. After leaving home, I attended North Carolina State University, graduating with a business degree. I became an intern for the American Express Company and went on to thoroughly enjoy a twenty year career in card services. But when the opportunity came to join a growing Rachel Kendall Team, there was no way to say no! Since then, I have helped over 400 families with their real estate decisions. As a listing partner, I bring experience to the table, along with the collective experience of our highly skilled team, to foster quality results for you and your family. It’s an honor and pleasure to assist you with the sale of your home.

Rachel Kendall’s journey did not begin with real estate. She spent the first decade of her working life as a teacher in California. Passionate about serving others, she made sure that all of her students had warm clothes for the winter and enough food to get through the day. Her efforts as an educator earned her the “Teaching Excellence Award.” When she moved on from teaching children, she opened her own fitness business where she continued to utilize her gift for teaching by educating women about health and wellness. Her passion for serving others also continued as she donated all of her profits to outfitting hundreds of children with cochlear implants. Rachel’s love for others now carries over into her real estate business. She coaches and mentors all of the team members, and she is a charismatic, thoughtful, and passionate team leader.

Mental Health Awareness month began in the United States in 1949 and was started by the Mental Health America (MHA) organization. May is used to raise awareness and educate the public about mental illnesses, the realities of living with these conditions, and strategies for attaining mental health and wellness. It also aims to draw attention to suicide, which can be precipitated by some mental illnesses. Additionally, Mental Health Awareness month strives to reduce the stigma that surrounds mental illnesses. This year's theme is #Tools2Thrive.
