Amanda Hill

Introduction

We all have a story, a story that includes how we arrived in the North Carolina Mountains or tales of growing up here as a local. When it comes to a real estate transaction, Amanda believes, “There is usually a win/win scenario for all involved, sometimes it just takes a little creativity, communication, and compassion. We love to facilitate the process! Helping others get what they want is a meaningful and gratifying experience.”  

Education

Amanda comes from a long line of educators. She holds a Master’s Degree as a Reading Specialist, and a Bachelor’s Degree certified in Special and Elementary Education. As a child and teenager, Amanda traveled to Central America during the summer, assisting with humanitarian efforts to improve the quality of life for others, giving her a more global perspective. Everyone deserves a place to call HOME.  It comes natural for us to promote the mountain lifestyle that we enjoy here in the Blue Ridge.

Work Experience

After selling real estate as an individual agent since 2013, Amanda joined her husband Ben to create the Hill Team and worked together for a number of years successfully in the business.  Ben received the company award for the Biggest Business Increase his first year in 2015.  Ben holds a Master's Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and returned to his first love of counseling starting his private practice in November 2025.  Amanda and Ben both joined McElroy Ellege & Company, an award winning team of top producers in 2025.  Amanda continues to broker transactions full time and Ben has transitioned to a licensed real estate assistant role with consistent referral activity.
