Jared Evans ~ Realtor
The Shane Register Real Estate Group is excited to introduce you to Jared Evans!
Jared has deep roots in the music industry, having worked as a professional session player for many years and, later, as worship director at Life Church. However, his interest in real estate has been long-standing. Having developed an acute knowledge about structural remodeling and renovation throughout the years and a newfound passion for flipping properties, a career in real estate has been a logical transition for Jared.
Jared was raised in Wilmington and has called the city his home for nearly thirty years. He loves Wilmington because of its small-town ambiance– which has been maintained despite its recent growth– and array of local restaurants and attractions. As an avid surfer, he particularly enjoys living in close proximity to area beaches. Jared also has two little girls with his wife, Casey, all with whom he loves spending his time.
Having previously worked in a leadership role, Jared is well-versed in taking initiative, providing guidance, and maintaining tact in high-pressure situations. If you would like to be shown Wilmington from the perspective of a true local, do not hesitate to reach out to Jared. He looks forward to working with you!
