Matthews NC - Buy of the month

Imagine coming home to your own place....you put the key in the front door, take off your shoes, get a drink from the fridge, turn on the stereo and relax in front of the fireplace. Can you see yourself doing that?

How about picking up the phone making plans for tonight, inviting some friends over and celebrate the Holidays...can you see yourself doing that?

You're so greatful that you bought your own place, a place to call home, a place to start building your own equity and not paying another persons mortgage--this time it's your place.



You know you made the right choice...all new carpeting---great...and the home was just painted--another great feature. Close to shopping, restaurants and transportation....

This was the best investment I made....can you imagine that????? and to think I almost missed it....

Mint Hill Memories

As a Realtor, I have had the pleasure of being able to find great clients, great homes. And over time, I get the opportunity to really get to know who these people are and get to share in their lives. I would like to tell you a story, one which is really a composite of several recent customers, but it gives you a feel for the relationships which form when you are working with a me & the great folks at Jamison:

Rebecca was a young married mother, who’s husband worked in the financial sector in Charlotte. Her husband traveled a lot, and Rebecca and their two children were left alone for several days each week. Rebecca, born and bred in New England, was a bit wary of the new-to-her-family North Carolina, and she wanted a community with security and comfort. She was looking for a home that would provide them with leisure opportunities to enjoy their fleeting family time, but also allow her to properly raise her children.

Rebecca was not a difficult client, there are no difficult clients. The young woman was new to our beautiful state, and she needed to be shown options. We worked with her over several months, before we zoomed in on a beautiful Mint Hill neighborhood. Jackpot!

Rebecca quickly fell in love with Mint Hill. Overnight, we were able to show our client a sizeable cache of homes that she not only loved, but had a tough time choosing from! The Mint Hill neighborhood with it’s small town charm but cosmopolitan citizens has the perfect appeal to families.

Now Rebecca might occasionally get a little homesick for her former New England residence, but she’s made many new friends and found a welcoming neighborhood in Mint Hill. Her kids have embraced the many recreational options available, and her husband enjoys the quiet options he and his family have when he returns from his long business trip. Their beautiful home is perfectly situated for them to take advantage of some incredible life choices, and they couldn’t be happier. If this all sounds appealing to you – then maybe you need to call us tomorrow. We still have a few homes in Mint Hill that we’d love to show you. And I think Rebecca and her family are always looking for a few more friends and playmates!

Charlotte – On the Move!

At the turn of the century, Charlotte was still a small town in spite of its favorable central location along the East Coast. But by the 1950s, Charlotte, North Carolina had exploded into the largest city in the Carolinas. Plentiful growth over the past 20 years has made Charlotte one of the southeastern USA's most multi-cultural and vibrant cities. New faces, new attitudes, and new ideas have made Charlotte a happening town, with new opportunities for seasoned and rookie Carolinians. Aggressive businessmen transformed Charlotte into a financial Mecca, with the city developing into a world-class home of finance and transportation. Today, bio-technology and energy are emerging markets, ready to fill the gaps caused by recent economic turn downs in the financial markets.

Charlotte is not a city without challenges and perhaps its greatest challenge is with its own identity. Charlotte remains tied to its roots in the old South, but has diversified, changed, and modernized as it has grown into a 21st century metropolis. North Carolina is one of the country’s leading places for relocation (both people and businesses), and Charlotte has been the a beacon in that movement. While the city still has thousands of locals who can bend your ear with stories and memories of the past, a large population of residents are new to the area, and bring with them new ideas, traditions and histories of their own. As time passes Charlotte's strength will be this diversity, and its people--new and old.
