Meet Charlotte’s Luxury Living Specialists: Sarah Martin

Savvy + Co. Real Estate — Mon, 30 Sep 2013 16:01:06 +0000

I’ve been in Charlotte now for 9 years and couldn’t love a city more. Originally from Orlando, FL I moved to Charlotte after graduating from Florida State University. Charlotte was a young town with great opportunity; it remains one of the nation’s fastest-growing cities with a strong job market. Charlotte is now my adopted home, and much to chagrin of my parents, I won’t be going back to Florida; who could leave the tree-lined street canopies, blossoming culinary scene, various unique & vibrant neighborhoods, and beautiful mountains just a short drive away?

Outside of real estate, my husband and I love to cook (well, I sip wine and watch him work his chef magic), find outdoor events in one of Charlotte’s parks or neighborhood “downtowns”, and take weekend trips to the beach, lake, or mountains. I love to get out and see what new events The Queen City is offering her citizens.

I am savvy at helping clients buy & sell in all quadrants of the in-town Charlotte area and would love to help you with your slice of Charlotte. Check out one of my websites, too, at: www.HomesForCharlottePhysicians.com.

My grandmother and real estate mentor, who sold real estate in Chicago & Orlando for nearly 50 years, was right: this is one of the few careers where I can help people with different tastes, backgrounds, and lifestyles fulfill a very special dream.
