Thinking of Selling Your Home? This Charlotte Townhouse Went From "FOR SALE" to "SOLD" in 12 Hours!

I knew this townhouse would sell quickly, but in 12 hours?  No way!



But that's how it went down.  With a dozen showing requests made on the first day, it didn't take long for a serious buyer to make an offer and for others to express interest.

If you live in the south Charlotte area from Mint Hill to Fort Mill, Dilworth to Waxhaw, or anywhere between, and are planning to sell your home, you need to call me today to get your house from "For Sale" to "Sold."

I have a proprietary method that has resulted in my three most recent listings being sold in under 3 days apiece, though I will admit, this one was the quickest one yet!

Call me directly at 980-298-9385 to schedule an appointment today.

What Do Charlotte Area Realtors® Do At Realtors® Care Day 2016? We Volunteer With Habitat for Humanity, Naturally! #RCD2016 #Snakeskin




Snakeskin, anyone?

Welcome to Realtors® Care Day 2016 (#RCD2016) in Pineville, North Carolina, a tiny hamlet just south of Charlotte, North Carolina!

Realtors® Care Day is put on locally every year in April by the Charlotte Regional Realtor® Association.

Approximately 30 Allen Tate Company Realtors® came out to a house on China Grove Road to replace siding, to paint, to install new counter-tops and to replace the vapor barrier underneath the house.

My job was to climb in the crawl space under the house. Where do you think I found this snake skin?

I freaked out the other people who were underneath the house with me when I showed it them while we were still under the house.

They may have been frightened when they saw the snake skin, but I told them, "I'd rather see a snake skin than a live snake!"

I never figured out what kind of snake this skin belonged to, but I estimate the snake is between four to five feet long and it was shed very recently.  Whether or not this skin came from a poisonous snake, I can't say.

#RCD2016 is just one of many ways Realtors® give back to the communities we serve by partnering with Habitat for Humanity to rehabilitate an existing home for a family that can't otherwise afford the repair work.

We may not be licensed contractors, but we do our best!

#RCD2016 was a blast and I can't wait for #RCD2017!

A rag-tag crew of Realtors® if I ever saw one, replacing siding on a Habitat for Humanity house.
