Julia Banner

What do Clients Say?

Julia helped us purchase a house in Glenville last year. We have bought and sold a lot of homes with different realtors over the years. Julia is absolutely one of the best. She is thorough, patient, professional, and responsive. She quickly understood our needs and showed us houses we might be interested in without wasting any time with homes we would not like. We were relatively new to the area—Julia’s knowledge, experience, and connections have been very helpful. She has a strong background in home construction and can answer questions and offer informed advice about possible changes to a house and the integrity of a home’s construction. Julia ensured that everything went smoothly during the closing process, and has remained involved in adapting the home to our needs in the months since closing. Overall, Julia is a warm, friendly, professional person who is enjoyable to work with. If we have any more real estate work in the Highlands-Cashiers area to do, she will be our first call.

Julia Banner is such a gem! From the moment we met her she treated us like family. She is warm and friendly yet highly professional. She went above and beyond to make our home-buying experience a pleasant one. She spent the entire day driving us around town showing us every home we asked to see. She never made us feel rushed and was always patient with us. She is very knowledgeable about the area and showed us a wide range of homes to choose from. Once we made a decision she was quick to make the sale and ensured that the escrow process was quick and easy. Even after the sale, she continued to check in with us and helped us find local contractors to help us with our new home. I would definitely recommend Julia to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Cashiers area! She is fun, sweet, charming and my husband and I both loved working with her.

Julia Banner was knowledgeable of the area and has a great network. She was extremely responsive on questions and was able to refer where needed, staying in touch through closing to ensure everything was on track that was needed.

Julia Banner helped us sell some land in Lake Toxaway and it was a great experience. The pictures that were taken were breathtaking! She was able to get us an extremely good offer in very little time and the closing was pretty smooth (it all happened during the holidays). If we ever have any land in her area again, she will be the person I will call! Thank you, Julia!

Julia Banner was our real estate agent and we could not have been more pleased with her professionalism & kindness. Buying a home in another state is tricky. It was something new to us and it would not have been such a great experience had she not gone above and beyond for us in every way. From helping us to understand the fine legal details, being there to answer questions when we needed & even getting our 26-foot Uhaul truck up our driveway when we could not, was invaluable! There is no doubt that we will be working with her again when we are ready to make our next purchase!

About Julia

Helping clients find a little taste of home comes easily for Julia Tatum Banner.

Born and raised in Oxford, Mississippi where generational roots run deep, Julia's love of all things reminiscent of "home," was sparked by visits to her grandmother's national landmark home, Ammadelle. From family meals and heirlooms shared to architectural endeavors, her family left its mark on Oxford. Her grandfather even built the city's golf course, now the local park, and employed his five sons to make sure every golfer had a caddy for their game.

After receiving her Fine Arts degree with an emphasis in graphic design from the University of Mississippi in 2014, Julia went on to purchase Delta Grind, a family-owned business, in 2016. Her creative spirit found immense satisfaction in watching something hand-crafted turn into a beautiful final product - no matter the medium. Since taking over Delta Grind, Julia has successfully reshaped the business model and continues to grow the company with the construction of a new commercial facility. You will find Julia and her grits featured in magazines such as Garden & Gun and Southern Living.

Today, Julia and her husband Mac reside in Lake Toxaway where they run a successful construction company focusing on residential and commercial projects. They have found that the golf communities, friendly atmosphere, and breathtaking views make it easy to find a taste of home in the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau.

From building lasting relationships to providing an unforgettable home-buying experience, Julia understands the intricacies of delivering on the dreams of her clients.  When she’s not working, Julia enjoys reading, gardening, entertaining with friends and exploring the local lakes and hiking trails with their two Great Danes, Grace, and George, blue heeler, Gus, and Hank the Golden Retriever.
