Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Advantage Welcomes Darcel Browning

Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Advantage is pleased to announce that Darcel Browning has joined the Emerald Isle office. “Darcel’s warmth, professionalism, and deep connection to the Crystal Coast make her a standout addition to our office,” said Nema Blankenship, Managing Broker of the Emerald Isle office. “She brings a thoughtful and thorough approach to real estate, with a strong commitment to client care and communication.”

Before entering real estate, Darcel built a successful career in finance, with roles including regional manager for Navy Federal Credit Union and accounting officer for the Naval Criminal Investigative Service. She holds both bachelor’s and master’s degrees in accounting from East Carolina University. This experience contributes to her detail-oriented mindset and strong organizational skills as a REALTOR®.

Darcel chose real estate because of her passion for helping people and her love for the unique stories behind every move. She holds both the ABR (Accredited Buyer’s Representative) and the RSPS (Resort & Second-Home Property Specialist) designations. “Whether someone is relocating, retiring, or fulfilling their dream of living at the beach, I truly enjoy being part of that process,” she says. “No two days, homes, or clients are the same—and that’s what I love most.”

Darcel lives in Emerald Isle, and loves taking part in all that the Crystal Coast has to offer. She serves on the Emerald Isle Christmas Decorations Committee, and as Treasurer for the Emerald Plantation Master Association. She also supports local events through the Emerald Isle Baptist Church. “It’s a vibrant, family-friendly area with something for everyone—great food, great people, and, of course, the beach,” she shared. While she’s deeply rooted in Emerald Isle, Darcel’s passion extends to helping clients across the entire Crystal Coast, from charming inland communities to scenic waterfront towns. “I love helping buyers discover the area that best fits their lifestyle.”
