Throughout my twelve year career as a real estate agent, I’ve had the pleasure of selling over 230 homes across the beautiful neighborhoods of Charlotte. But it’s not just about the numbers – my true passion lies in helping clients find their perfect homes and creating lasting memories.

I’ve proudly called Charlotte home since 2000, and my journey here was quite the adventure. Born and raised in Harrisburg, PA, my path led me to some exciting places, including St. Thomas, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Key West, and even a tiny island in the middle of Lake Erie. Yet, when I arrived in Charlotte, I was welcomed with open arms and a sense of belonging like never before.

I attended UNC Charlotte, where I studied Anthropology with a minor in Spanish. After UNC, I began my Charlotte career working for a local real estate developer before transitioning to the financial sector, where I spent nearly a decade helping people prepare for their financial future and retirement. But I yearned for something more, something that ignited my passion.

The turning point came through my experience with Lexie Longstreet, Broker and Owner of Savvy + Co. Real Estate, who was my real estate agent. The exceptional service and the vibrant culture of Savvy + Co. inspired me to become an agent myself. In 2012, I took the leap, earned my North Carolina real estate license, and began my real estate journey with Savvy + Co. 

My real strength as an agent shines when it comes to helping my sellers list and stage their homes as they get ready to move on to the next chapter of their lives. With a proven strategy and a track record to back it up, I consistently secure the highest selling prices in the shortest amount of time on the market. For my buyer clients, I’ve crafted a winning approach to ensure they get their dream house at a cost that won’t break the bank. My background in the financial sector has equipped me with a deep understanding of assets and a comfort level in discussing financial matters that sets my clients at ease. I’m not afraid to ask the tough questions about money, ensuring that they make sound decisions.

When I’m not helping my clients, I enjoy spending quality time with my husband, Jim, and our beloved dog, Cora. Cora, a potcake pup we met during a vacation in Turks & Caicos, quickly stole our hearts – we brought home the ultimate souvenir! We absolutely love the dog-friendly atmosphere in Charlotte, with days spent at the Whitewater Center, leisurely boat rides around Lake Norman, and savoring the flavors of local restaurants and breweries.

I’ve watched this city grows by leaps and bounds, and I take immense pride in helping my clients find their places in this ever-evolving city. If you’re thinking of making a move to the Queen City, I look forward to introducing you to my hometown, which I hope will soon become your hometown too. Let’s embark on this exciting journey together! 

“Smart, diligent and innately talented! I’m pretty sure I experienced real estate nirvana with Heather. Seriously, swiftest, easiest and most lucrative sale EVVVEEERRRR. Heather just released my burden of a condo that went underwater during the Great Recession, from my shoulders. From my life!!! The whole process was HANDLED. Under control. Never had to worry about a thing. I can’t possibly describe how relieving that feeling is. My family and I are very grateful. Heather is smart, diligent and innately talented. Her team is top-notch. I appreciate all of her hard work, and can’t wait to sing her praises to anyone looking for real estate agent recommendations. BRAVA woman” – S. Hosseini
