Tony de la Vega offers a unique perspective that benefits his clients. The REALTOR has not only lived in Fayetteville for nearly two decades, he is a 26-year Army veteran. This qualifies him to assist families looking to relocate to or from our area.
“I love working with people and getting to know them, and I really enjoy helping people,” he says. “I want to help folks with the most important purchase or sale they will make.”
The former Sergeant Major fell in love with real estate after flipping a house in 2005. He also found in this market, real estate is an excellent way to stay connected to his troops.
The skills and traits De la Vega learned in the armed forces transfer over to his new career. In fact, these qualities make him the ideal pick for clients seeking someone who will go to battle for them during one of life’s most stressful transactions.
“I had a successful career in the military in the very fast paced environment of Special Operations,” he says. “I made a name for myself as a professional who always came through on his commitments. I am a professional who people can count on for honesty and integrity, and I will work hard for my clients.”
In addition to helping newcomers find their dream home here, de la Vega is active in the community. He volunteers with his church, is a former youth soccer coach and is the president of the Joint Special Operations Association, a non-profit that gives scholarships, memorializes the fallen, and supports JSOC and its family members.

Tony was awesome from start to finish. He was knowledgeable, patient and helped us find exactly what we wanted despite being out of state. He was always a step ahead of us and available for questions. We would use CBA and Tony again.

In our case, Tony was the face of Coldwell Banker Advantage- we did not work with anyone else from CBA during the sales process. Tony was fully engaged from his selection as our realtor and successfully accomplished our intent to get the house prepared for, and on the market quickly, as well as realize our optimal price for the house. His advice and professional counsel throughout the process were right on target. We would absolutely recommend Tony & CBA to others!!
My Service Ratings
08/11/2022 - Steven Daniel Cage
From his selection, of 3 realtors we interviewed over 3 days, Tony was on focused on our intent to 1) get our house on the market as quickly as possible following the 1 July tenant departure and 2) to realize an optimal price for it. Tony was able to coordinate for or recommend for our consideration folks who could prep the house and property quickly. Much of that was done over a long holiday (4th of July) weekend and the house was on the market that week multiple viewings. By 8 July we had multiple offers and Tony was superb at taking us through the advantages and disadvantages of each. We accepted one that night and that led into the inspections and, ultimately, the closing process. Tony was fully engaged throughout these proceedings, keeping us updated throughout. This was our first ever house sale (we tried unsuccessfully about 12 years ago) and Tony made it virtually stress free while successfully realizing more than the asking price. I will absolutely recommend Tony to any one I know who is selling (or buying ) a house.

Tony went above and beyond to help me sell my home. Not only did he arrange showings, keep me updated and answer all of my questions, but he also helped to ensure my house was ready from the inside to the outside. He did all this from two states away (I'm currently stationed in Georgia). I cannot recommend Tony enough. If I end up back in North Carolina, he will be my first call.

Tony went above and beyond in helping me find and purchase a home, especially since I was out of the country during most of the process. He kept me informed throughout the entire process and made everything as smooth as possible. He is extremely knowledgeable, honest and very responsive. During the many ups and downs of the purchase, he worked TIRELESSLY to help me purchase my home. Buying a home in such a competitive market can be a nightmare; you need to work with someone who knows the market and how to compete in it, Tony IS the right fit. I will definitely hire him again in a heartbeat.

My experience with Coldwell Banker (Ms. Liz Stuart and Mr. Tony De La Vega) was superb. From the beginning of the process to the final signature, Liz showed a great understanding of her craft. They both maintained consistent communication and went above the duties required of them to ensure I was confident in every step of the process. I’d HIGHLY recommend Liz and Tony’s services to those seeking assistance with a home sale/purchase.
