As local homeowners, property investors, and vacation rental owners, we understand that coastal real estate involves much more than finding the right property or negotiating a price.

From flood insurance and HOA regulations to beach erosion, rental potential, and maintenance expenses, we know the challenges and opportunities of coastal ownership firsthand.

We believe in personal relationships, honest communication, and helping our clients make informed decisions with confidence.

We don't just help clients buy, sell, and operate coastal properties. We own, invest in, and operate properties here ourselves.

Who we are

Family-owned. Locally invested. Built on experience.

Topsail Elite Realty is more than just a real estate brokerage. Built by husband-and-wife team Jana Passé and Jeffrey Wells, our business reflects our passion for Topsail Island, coastal real estate, and helping homeowners make the most of their properties.

We also have an established sister company, Topsail Elite Cleaning & Organizing, LLC, which has served local property owners and vacation rentals for years. Together, our businesses offer valuable experience and dependable local resources for homeowners who need more than traditional real estate services.

Whether you're buying, selling, investing, or looking for vacation rental support, you'll work with people who know the area, understand coastal ownership firsthand, and genuinely care about the community we call home.

Local Knowledge. Firsthand Experience. Guidance You Can Trust.

Advice from the owner's side

Coastal property ownership comes with unique considerations that aren't always obvious in a real estate listing.

Flood and wind insurance, HOA assessments, beach erosion, rental restrictions, seasonal demand, and ongoing maintenance can significantly influence ownership decisions.

Our firsthand experience buying, improving, and operating properties along Topsail Island gives us practical insight into these considerations.

Whether you're purchasing a beach home, selling an established vacation rental, or evaluating an investment property, our goal is to help you understand the bigger picture and make informed decisions.
