I am one of the few true natives of Wilmington. Because I am a Wilmington native, I am familiar with all of Wilmington and the surrounding areas. I have enjoyed being a Realtor since 1995. I have a background in insurance and banking.
I appreciate the hard work and dedication provided by the Fire, Police and EMS. If you work in the industry, please contact me about the special incentives with lending, inspections and closing attorney.
When I am not working, I enjoy spending time boating and sport fishing, cooking, traveling and enjoying the Intracoastal Waterway.
Why Experience Matters:
I have worked hard to become a successful Realtor/Broker in today's market. I first became interested in Real Estate while working as an Insurance Sales Agent. While selling insurance I attended the American College of Bryn Mawr, PA gaining valuable insight to the financial market, which served as the foundation of my Real Estate career. I am a strong believer of the motto “knowledge is power." I understand that just holding a Real Estate is a license is not enough to do the tasks expected by quality Realtors in today’s market. As a previous Coldwell Banker Franchise Owner, I have real insight on both the front and back side of every type of real estate transaction.
Giving Back
Being a Wilmington Native, I am thrilled to give back to my community.

As a Wilmington Native, I have lived the majority of my life in this area. This has given me an extreme knowledge and understanding of the area. I have seen Wilmington grow from a small coastal town to a thriving city that now survives on many industries and has become one of North Carolina's favorite vacation destinations.
I come to Keller Williams Realty with over 20 years of experience in the real estate business. I initially started selling lots for a large developer, to then selling houses and large acreage tracts, and eventually developing property myself. With this wealth of experience I can make sure you get the expertise and knowledge that you expect from your agent.
I am a graduate of North Carolina State University. I worked several years in the mortgage industry before finding my real passion with real estate. When not working, I try to spend the majority of my time boating on the various waterways with my friends and family.

My personal mission has always been about helping people create new futures for themselves and their families. And having the privilege of facilitating a move to a new neighborhood, finding a new home, or creating new income through investment properties, is a very rewarding way to do just that.
After a 25+ year sales and marketing career in the travel and hospitality industry, real estate offers just the right opportunity to combine my love for sales and marketing innovation, along with win-win contract negotiations and building strong personal relationships to impact the lives of people around me in ways that truly matter. After having lived all over the country, and finally finding my way here to beautiful coastal NC, the opportunity to share all the great things that this area has to offer with others, makes “work” seem like “play” every single day!
With a deep commitment to “doing the right thing – always," and enjoying plenty of laughter at every opportunity, regardless of whether your objective is to enjoy the highest possible returns from the sale of your most precious asset or your goal is the hunt for your next “living the dream” or vacation get-away home here in beautiful Brunswick County, as your NC Broker by the Sea, I guarantee to make it fun, fast, and fruitful. By working together with my outstanding partners at KBT Realty - the #1 producing team in the region and the #1 real estate firm in the world - I can assure that all my customers experience the level of customer service excellence they deserve.

joey.mayo@kbtrealty.com
I have what I consider an unparalleled passion for real estate. I received my Bachelor of Science in Industrial Technology from East Carolina University and while my education and subsequent work as an engineer helped fine tune my attention to detail and project management skills, I was compelled to shift my career pursuits to suit my calling--helping others accomplish their goals of homeownership, acquiring investment properties, or purchasing a second home.
I loves a challenge! In 2015 I completed a cross-country cycling trip of 3600 miles from Nags Head, NC to San Diego, CA to benefit and bring awareness to affordable housing. Through the nonprofit organization “Bike and Build,” bikers raised over $160,000. I bring the same level of determination to the table when serving my clients and community in and around beautiful Wilmington, NC.
Serving 4 years in the United States Navy, I honed my ability to excel in stressful situations and thrive in constantly changing environments. My commitment to hard work and integrity, combined with a tenacity and focus on leaving no stone unturned is sure to help you accomplish your real estate goals.

I grew up in North Carolina in the town of Goldsboro and attended Appalachian State University and then spent two years working in Chapel Hill. I earned my MBA at The University of Tennessee in Knoxville. After having spent 7 years in marketing, I realized I was uniquely positioned to combine the expertise of my business and marketing background to help others make one of the most important decisions of their lives, real estate investments – whether to call someplace home or be on the path to wealth through investing. I spent 10 years as a licensed agent in Reno, NV where I grew a small team and then chose to return home to North Carolina to live near the beach and family.
I was a top producing agent not because of chance, but because of persistence and education. I always cared deeply about my clients and refused to let them fail, negotiating on their behalf and educating them so they could make the best decision for their families. As a broker with KBT Realty of Keller Williams, I take that same approach with buyers and sellers in the southeastern coastal North Carolina region.

After visiting my family in the Wilmington area for over 20 years and being on the coast with them, my wife and I relocated to coastal Carolina several years ago. As a boy, fishing with my father on Saturdays was such a joy and a magical memory of my childhood. Taking the boat out deep-sea fishing and being on the ocean is always such a thrill. Whether you are in Wilmington, Carolina Beach, Kure Beach, Southport, Ocean Isle or anywhere in between, there is an abundance of activities to suit everyone, young and old. Each day offers a new adventure. I have always had a passion for helping people. Whether it is volunteering in our community, at our local church or serving on the HOA board of directors, helping others reach their goals has always inspired me. I live my life with the philosophy of “I have never met a stranger.” Being truthful and honest is the key to making lifelong friendships.
Working with KBT Realty Group provides me the opportunity to fulfill the key components in my life – helping others find the quality of life they so richly deserve and desire, as well as finding more fishing buddies!
Remember – You will never have to shovel sunshine! Come visit coastal North Carolina and make your dreams come true!

I am originally from Clifton, Virginia, a suburb of Washington, DC where I engaged in the private practice of law for over 20 years. It was a general law practice with a strong emphasis on both residential and commercial real estate transactions. I earned my undergraduate degree from George Mason University with a B.S. in Public Administration and my law degree from George Mason University School of Law. My dream since I was young was to call the beach my home. I discovered Kure Beach in 2003 and instantly fell in love. Finally, in 2014, I made the leap and moved to Kure Beach permanently. I was lucky to have my dream come true. My life philosophy is an individual should always give back to their tribe and help it grow and flourish, to assist in realizing its goals and dreams.
