About Chelsea Vanderpool

Hi there! I’m Chelsea Vanderpool, a Property Manager and licensed real estate referral agent as well as team player with Sam Paynter for buying and selling with Weichert REALTORS®, Mark Thomas Properties. I love what I do — managing properties, supporting owners and tenants, and helping people connect with trusted local REALTORS®. Whether you’re buying, selling, renting, or investing, my goal is to make the process smooth, transparent, and stress-free by connecting you with the right professional for your needs. I work closely alongside Sam Paynter as a team to serve our clients with a collaborative and personalized approach. You can learn more about our team here: https://www.mebaneliving.com/pages/about-our-team.

Since I got my real estate license in 2019, I’ve discovered my greatest joy comes from building relationships and helping people feel confident in their next step — whether that’s finding a reliable tenant, maintaining a rental property, or matching with the perfect agent to guide them home or find the perfect home or relocate. I live in Mebane, North Carolina, with my husband, our three kids, and our crew of pets.

I own a family shop called Carolina Crafted Van, where we create thoughtful, Carolina-inspired products and gifts. It started as a creative outlet for our family and has grown into a space where we can share meaningful pieces with others. I also recently published a book, and for a limited time, I’m offering signed copies through the shop at www.carolinacraftedvan.com. Every order supports our family and the heart behind what we create.

You can also follow along with my free Substack blogs where I share stories, encouragement, and reflections:
