Meet James Patella, REALTOR®
If you’re looking for a home in North Carolina’s Triangle or Triad area, you deserve a real estate agent who treats you like family. I was born and raised right here in North Carolina and have proudly called the Triangle home. I began my real estate career in 2006 with Prudential Carolinas Realty and later joined Howard Hanna Allen Tate Realtors in 2011. Since then, I’ve been honored to be among the company’s top sales performers year after year.
I’m a proud graduate of North Carolina State University, where I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and a minor in Computer Science. While attending NCSU, I managed Raleigh city pools, where I gained valuable experience in leadership, hiring, training, and public relations. Growing up, I also helped with my family’s business—Vincenzo’s Restaurant in Winston-Salem—which taught me the value of hard work and community.
Family is at the heart of everything I do. I’m married to a wonderful wife, and together we have two amazing kids—a boy and a girl. Outside of real estate, I’m passionate about sports. I played football growing up, love watching my kids play soccer, and enjoy tennis, pickleball, and all kinds of water sports. A personal highlight for me was running the 1992 New York City Marathon, an experience that reinforced my belief in perseverance, preparation, and achieving goals.
As part of the Howard Hanna Allen Tate team, I’m proud to offer clients a true full-service experience—everything from home buying and selling to mortgage lending, insurance, home warranties, and title services—all under one roof for your convenience.
I’m a highly motivated and experienced REALTOR® who works tirelessly to help my clients achieve their real estate goals. Whether you’re buying your dream home, selling your current property, or simply have a question about the market, I’m always happy to help.
Let’s connect—and make your real estate dreams a reality.
