Tammy Aycock started in construction in 1991 working for a premier builder/developer in Corolla, where she became a partner in the firm. As she pursued her career, she was a fully licensed Broker by 1998 and continued to be one of the top producing listing and sales brokers on the Outer Banks.  

A job interview landed Tammy at the door of SAGA Realty & Construction in 2012. During the first meeting, her interest was reinvigorated by their contemporary business model and their vision and excitement about innovative construction designs and building trends for the area. 

“I love the construction and real estate business because it creates an opportunity to meet and serve a wide variety of people. I am a walking encyclopedia of construction knowledge and enjoy sharing that information with others. I am also a good listener, who is sensitive to the wants and needs of my clients.” 

Now in the role as Principal Broker-in-Charge at SAGA Realty & Construction, Tammy’s clients speak highly of her exceptional customer service, positive attitude, and vast industry knowledge. 

Tammy is a trained opera singer and an avid angler, who enjoys spending hours on our beaches surf fishing. She also enjoys time spent with her son.
