Charlotte Real Estate
Welcome to Loving Charlotte. Sit back, relax, and sip some Sweet Tea from Charlotte!
Attention: A page dedicated to all the Charlotte Foreclosures, Charlotte Short Sales, Hud Homes and the like!
The Charlotte real estate market has shown steady growth in recent years, and all evidence suggests this boom is destined to continue. Union County is now the 7th fastest growing county in the nation! Union now has the state’s second-highest median income, second only to Wake County. This is because Charlotte is the second largest financial center in the U.S., next only to N.Y.C., where many people are now coming from. Charlotte is a progressive city with "Southern charm"! I hope to help you find a dream home and after we can sit and rock on my porch, drink some "Sweet Tea", and reminisce about our old homes.

Updated as of Monday, May 5th. Some statistics for March 2008 VS. March 2007. Stats are from CRRA and CMLS! For previous stats...
Charlotte and the surrounding area are feeling the trickle down effect finally that the rest of the country has been feeling for sometime now. This is great for the buyer, because now they are in a positive position, to BUY!. (As a matter-of-fact, I know of some builders, that are clearing out there inventory, by 50k or so!) It appears to me that inventory is taking longer to offload, but luckily has not affected the percentage gained by the seller. One other good indicator of things to come, is the fact, that Charlotte's Uptown Office/Commercial vacany rate (2.3%) is at an all time low, lower than NYC (4.7%), and showed the sixth-largest increase in lease rates. The average rate jumped from 2006, 27.3% higher! This means all our buildings are almost filled up with businesses, and that means more jobs, which means more people and more homes to fill! Lets hope we stay in a balanced market for 2008, otherwise we will be following the rest of the country!
Also people looking to retire need to check out South Carolina or here. Check with a tax advisor or accountant, but they allow more of a deduction on your pension. They have excellent schools (for resale value, or for a school aged family), and even lower taxes, are about a half hour from center city Charlotte, or minutes from Ballantyne.

You'll also find our web site to be a one-stop resource for your Union County real estate research. I am just a phone call away (704)-607-4729 and eager to talk about the local market for condos or homes, or preconstruction, or whatever is most interesting to you! I have just become a member of the Union County Home Builders Association, this will allow me to stay connected with many top builders. We delight in helping people succeed in this market, and when our clients come out of the transaction breathing that big sigh of relief, we're just as satisfied as they are, even more because we know we just saved them thousands of dollars, either with our Buyers Rebate program or with our company standard 1% Full-Service Listing, also sellers look at our Guarantee!
Also all you Buyers out there, take note of our FSBO (For Sale By Owner) Link. You will not see this on any other website! I actively pursue taking pictures of these homes before they join a real estate. Why? Because your perfect home may not be listed on the MLS!!!
Proud of your Community? Allow me to feature it like this one:
The Reserve, a community centered around a 300 year Old Oak Tree, a Pond, some great walking trails and some greater people!
One more thing. I saw this written on a post on City-data.com, and thought it rang so true, I am passing it on here! Also click on this link for another great post on City-data.
"When looked at as a whole, many say there are really three Union Counties. The western portion is made up of communities such as Weddington, Waxhaw and Marvin that attribute their recent growth to spillover from South Charlotte’s luxury homes. Monroe, the county seat in the geographical center of the county, is the center of government and industry. And eastern Union County, including the towns of Marshville and, farther north, Unionville, retains its largely rural appeal and is home to the county’s still thriving agricultural base.
Together, the 14 incorporated towns of Union County offer a combination of country charm and urban convenience promising something for just about everyone."
So please, have a look around, and contact us with any questions you might have about the market or our services. No question is too mundane - were here to help!
