103 Market Street Chapel Hill, NC 27516 (919) 967-6363
My passion for real estate is deeply rooted in a lifelong connection to residential housing and a genuine desire to help people. Growing up, I worked alongside my father in his residential construction company, where I gained hands-on experience that shaped my understanding of homes—from their foundations to their finishing touches. This early exposure not only gave me technical expertise but also sparked my enthusiasm for helping people navigate one of the most important investments of their lives: their home.
I understand that buying or selling a home can be overwhelming. It’s not just about finding the right property or buyer; it’s about avoiding hidden issues, managing costs, and making decisions that fit your family’s needs and goals. For many, the process also involves envisioning what a home could be, whether it’s turning a fixer-upper into a dream house or preparing a property for the market to maximize its value.
That’s where I come in. As an experienced realtor and partner to my father, a licensed general contractor, I offer a unique blend of market knowledge and construction expertise. I help buyers uncover potential problems before they become costly surprises and provide sellers with targeted advice to enhance their home’s appeal. For those tackling remodels, I simplify the process by offering consultations, coordinating trusted labor contacts, and even managing the project from start to finish. My approach ensures that your journey—whether buying, selling, or renovating—is efficient, informed, and stress-free.
Imagine the peace of mind that comes from knowing your home investment is in capable hands. Picture yourself walking into a house that fits your family’s lifestyle, with every detail tailored to your vision. Envision a seamless transition, whether you’re moving into your dream home, selling your current one for the best price, or transforming a space into something truly special. My mission is to turn these dreams into reality, helping you move forward with confidence and excitement for the future.

My wife and I purchased our first home in Charlotte, which is outside of Chris's typical region. He worked diligently to understand the different market by collecting data from other realtors, checking expected due diligence amounts, and running extensive market reports. When we toured homes with him, he was an asset to have with us. He was not afraid to get his pants dirty and check the hard-to-reach places for big ticket items that may costs us in the long term. For example, Chris got into the crawl space on hands and knees in one home that we were leaning toward purchasing and he found foundation problems that could not be seen externally. His field knowledge came in handy by knowing the average pricing for structural engineers and foundation repair, which led to us realizing the house would be a money sink we weren't ready to commit. His background knowledge in construction truly made the difference and led to us purchasing our first home that we are thrilled to now own. We bought an older house that didn't have the curb appeal or updated kitchen because his foreknowledge helped us understand how we could transform the space to something we would love with a little work, while also saving money on the monthly mortgage. 6 months later, the space has been transformed to something we truly love, and we can attribute a lot of that to his ability to see the big picture and estimate how much it would cost and how to stay in budget. Chris exceeded our expectations and I would highly recommend him because most realtors are either not willing to get their hands dirty, or not fully aware of the cost and effort that it takes to undergo remodeling and general house upkeep. We're glad that we chose to work with Chris and would not work with a different realtor.

Chris was excellent in helping price and sell my rental property to an owner occupant rather than an investor. Communications were smooth and as needed. Definitely recommend.

Chris was an OUTSTANDING agent to work with! Chris eagerly searched for, and toured, homes for our large family. He was very conscious of our unique needs in a home. We couldn’t be more thankful for Chris and his time, dedication and outstanding communication, that gave us so much peace throughout this process.

We have been working with Chris for months in this crazy seller's market. He was so patient in getting exactly what we wanted. The problem was, we didn't even know what we wanted. He took us to many different areas that we asked for and each time we loss the contract. The seller's market was a nightmare. We knew of others with the same issues. I thought that Chris had given up, like I had - but we found the perfect home. We just had to rethink our plans and see what the market had to offer. Chis was patient, resourceful and completely on our side when negotiating. He even surprised us for adding things to the contract that we didn't think we could get. Even in a seller's market Chris was able to reduce asking price, which was incredible during this time. I wanted to make some changes and Chris reached out to those he knew to see if my changes were feasible. He was there at every step. I'm so happy with our purchase, I couldn't have asked for anything better. I'm very pleased with Chris's work and highly recommend him to my friends and family.

I found Chris too late to use him to sell our home, but he helped me immensely in looking through an inspection report for a house we were buying out-of-state. His history and connections in construction are a great value-add for any prospective home buyer or seller. On a more personal note, Chris is a trustworthy and dedicated individual who genuinely cares about people. I have no doubt he will take care of you if you make him your agent!

Chris made selling our house easy. He was knowledgeable about the local market and listed and labeled the special features of the house to create interest for potential buyers. Chris' professional input facilitated negotiations and he understood our wishes and responded quickly to our questions. Chris worked hard to make sure our home sold for the best price and we are pleased we chose him as our realtor.

I know Chris more on a personal level than a professional level. However, I do know that when Iâm ready to buy a house he definitely will be my realtor! Chris is very active in the community and has a huge heart for others. This flows into his business and he always goes the extra mile to make sure he can help someone. He genuinely cares for every one of his clients and will work very hard until the job is done perfectly. I recommend him to all my friends and family for their realty needs!

It was a pleasure working with Chris on selling my parents’ house after they passed away. He was extremely attentive, had great marketing ideas, and knew exactly how to price the house in the current market. We had an amazing offer after just 36 hours. Chris also was adept at navigating the complexity of working with an estate—multiple heirs/sellers of the home and the additional paperwork that was required. Our family appreciated how incredibly smooth the sale went from start to finish, in large part thanks to Chris’ skills and dedication. I recommend him without hesitation.
