What is Comet Realty All About?
We work to make your real estate transaction a pleasant experience.
Everyone knows that the best way to grow a business is through referrals. If your time with us is a profitable, enjoyable transaction where your needs are pleasantly fulfilled, your recommendation will go farther than any money spent advertising our agency. We are looking for customers for life, and look forward to helping you now---and with your future Real Estate needs.
Comet Realty is a small company that can focus on your needs. We are not some gigantic chain that treats its clients as “just another quick sale”. We answer to you, not a “home office” in another time zone. We live, work and play on the Central Coast, and have the “local knowledge” to get business done.
We know that a suit and tie does not make one a professional. It is the attention to detail, the follow up, the calls and e-mails, and the relentless dedication to your satisfaction that makes us professionals in Real Estate.

A proven Real Estate professional and a Realtor®, Hayley Townley has been licensed since 1989. In addition to Real Estate, she has an extensive background in sales and marketing. She and her husband, Tim, are both Broker/Owners of Comet Realty, Feng Shui Certified, as well as Green Certified Leaders for Real Estate Professionals.
Hayley spent several years focusing on first time homebuyers, as she was retained by one of the Central Coast’s residential developers. During this time, she gained extensive knowledge about the county’s Affordable Housing Program.

In addition to the sales aspect of your real estate transaction, Hayley is Feng Shui Certified and knowledgeable in staging your home to make it sell faster. She now designs rooms for clients on a part time basis, via word of mouth. This is just one of the many different personal touches Comet Realty can add to your transaction.
