About Nema

As the Managing Broker for Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Advantage in Emerald Isle and Atlantic Beach, Nema Blankenship is defined by a singular mission: the growth and success of her agents. With a leadership mindset rooted in empowerment, Nema has transitioned from a seasoned sales professional to a dedicated mentor and strategist for her team. Nema is a non-competing leader, a distinction that is central to her management philosophy. By not competing for listings or buyers, she ensures her full focus remains on her agents. This commitment allows her to serve as a true partner—identifying obstacles, navigating complex transactions, and developing strategic business plans tailored to each agent’s individual strengths. Her passion for leadership is personal. Nema remembers the mentors who invested in her early career, and she is now driven to pay that path forward. She provides a high-level support system where agents can sharpen their skills, expand their knowledge, and thrive in the competitive Crystal Coast market. Nema’s love for the coast brought her to North Carolina in 2007. When she isn’t helping her agents reach their goals, she can be found enjoying the water with her husband—a Navy veteran—boating or cheering on her favorite college football team.
