Hello, I'm Desiree Young.
Let's find your place in the Triangle. Whether you're buying your first home, selling for top dollar, or investing in Cary's thriving market — I'm here to make it feel like coming home.
More than an agent —
your advocate in every step.
I grew up in the Triangle and fell in love with what makes Cary special — the tree-lined neighborhoods, the vibrant community events, the schools that bring families together, and the steady growth that makes this one of the most desirable places to live in North Carolina.
As a licensed real estate professional with Navigate Realty, I bring local knowledge, honest communication, and a genuine investment in your outcome. I don't just close deals — I help people find the right home at the right time, whether that's a starter home near the parks, a move-up property in a sought-after subdivision, or an investment that fits your portfolio.
My approach is simple: listen first, explain clearly, and fight for your interests at every turn. The Triangle market moves fast, and having someone who knows it inside and out can make all the difference.

Cary & the
Triangle region.
I know these neighborhoods the way I know my own backyard — because I live here. From the historic charm of downtown Cary to the new developments along the Research Triangle corridor, I can help you find the community that fits your lifestyle.
Cary consistently ranks among the best places to live in the Southeast, and for good reason: excellent schools, abundant green space, a thriving downtown with restaurants and shops, and easy access to Research Triangle Park. It's no wonder families, professionals, and investors all choose the Triangle.

What my clients
have to say.
"Desiree made what we thought would be a stressful process feel completely manageable. She listened to what we needed, showed us homes that actually fit, and negotiated on our behalf like she was fighting for her own family. We couldn't be happier in our new Cary home."
M.T.
First-time homebuyer
"We listed with Desiree after a friend recommended her, and it was the best decision we made. She priced our home right, the marketing was beautiful, and we had multiple offers within days. She kept us calm and informed through every step."
R.S.

"As an out-of-state investor, I needed someone who understood the Triangle market and could be my eyes on the ground. Desiree found me a solid rental property, connected me with local property management, and made the whole process seamless from hundreds of miles away."
