Sell Your Charlotte Real Estate with the Confidence of Charlotte's Real Estate Marketing Specialists

If you are considering selling your home in Charlotte NC it's time to start preparing and get the job done.

Choosing a Realtor® to list your home is one of the most important steps in the home selling process.

Realizing that more than 85% of today's buyers are starting their home search online, our primary focus (second only to customer/client satisfaction) is internet marketing. Providing that you have priced your home right, there is but one final piece of the puzzle: whether or not your home will or will not sell--and that is MARKETING. With HELEN ADAMS REALTY and The Maxwell House Group you will receive the ultimate marketing power.

HELEN ADAMS REALTY and The Maxwell House Group will get the job done! Our firm, HELEN ADAMS REALTY, has powerful websites and put our seller's listings are advertised on at least 60 additional websites.

“Building a Family Tradition since 1960”

Pride of Ownership – As a homeowner, that is very important to you. You want your home to fulfill your ideals and represent the values your family holds dear.  You want it to embrace qualities of comfort and beauty but, also serve your practical needs so that you can get on with the business of life.

Hobart Smith Homes understands what Pride of Ownership means. 

When its founder, Hobart Smith, Sr., began building homes in 1960, he applied years of experience in the banking and building supply industries to what is now one of the most highly respected home building companies in the Charlotte area.  He knew that listening to the customer was the best way to learn what homeowners wanted and needed.  Whether they desired smooth-flowing floor plans, expansive bonus rooms, modern work stations or front porches, Smith made sure that he accommodated the request right down to the last detail.  Over 4,000 homes in the Charlotte, Statesville and Raleigh areas are proof of this prestigious company’s popularity and reliability.

Philosophy – Today, sons Hobart, Jr. (Skip) and Tony, along with grandson, Chet, continue to strive to meet those cherished standards.  They believe that bringing old fashioned values to a high-tech business is a winning formula.  “We can afford to take a personal interest in every property we build,” says Skip Smith.  “Management-wise, we’re totally hands-on.”  Their combined over-100 years of experience have proven to the Smiths that standing behind the quality of each and every home they build is a principle that works.

Furthermore, Hobart Smith Homes are custom-designed on site, by the most skilled craftsmen, of the finest quality materials and techniques.  “Our employees are dedicated to the company name,” says Skip.

Because families want their homes to reflect their personalities, Hobart Smith offers a wide variety of unique floor plans that accommodate every lifestyle.  Whether they’re traditional, with formal living and dining rooms, or have free-flowing great rooms and media centers, the heart of the homes are kitchens that make cooking and entertaining a joy.

Quality craftsmanship, distinctive architecture and the personal attention of the builder—who said they don’t make homes like they used to? 

When it comes to all-around excellence, Hobart Smith Homes is simply unsurpassed in the building industry.  Satisfied customers of Hobart Smith Homes abound in the Charlotte area!  Their customer-service-beyond-the-standard-warranty is their trademark.  Not only do they provide the coveted 2-10 Warranty, they  provide the personal service that other builders only 'claim' to provide.

Is Bank of America Leaving Charlotte?

My personal feeling is that BOA isn’t going anywhere! Does it really matter where the CEO lives? In this day and time, with all of our technological advances and the increasing ability to do our jobs from the office, our homes or the beach and the video conferencing capabilities that we so often use, I can't imagine why this topic has gotten Charlotte residents so up in arms over the location of the new CEO of Bank of America.

Bank of America owns far too much real estate here in Charlotte that to sell it and purchase FAR more expensive real estate in NY in this market is, in my opinion, simply ludicrous! And, to whom are they going to sell?!

Another consideration is the cost of relocating their personnel to NY . Imagine the taxes that they'd have to pay in New York--well above and beyond those here in Charlotte.

Those factors would (should) deter any business from relocating from ‘reasonable’ Charlotte, NC to ‘exorbitant’ New York!

(Sorry NY friends--I have helped numerous transferees from NY and they all concur that our taxes are far less than those which they had been used to paying in New York)!

The City of Charlotte and the Charlotte Chamber of Commerce are both working towards a more appealing business climate here in Charlotte. Charlotte has always been ahead of the curve with small and large business relations. Over the last decade, Charlotte has been one of the most forward-thinking metropolitan areas in the country—and that is expected to continue with our new leadership.

So, no, I don't think Bank of America headquarters is moving anywhere, anytime soon!

Just my humble opinion!

Active Rain Featured in the North Carolina Association of Realtors® Insight Magazine

Barbara West, Assistant Editor of the North Carolina Association of Realtors® Insight magazine featured three of Active Rain's NC agents in their most recent edition! "Active Rain is a True Real Estate Community" featured your own Leesa Finley, Diane Aurit and myself--all of which expressed our passion for the Rain and how beneficial it is to our business.

Leesa, from Wake Forest, recently received a phone call from an excited buyer, proclaiming "I hear you're the Wake Forset specialist." Leesa knew right away that she had been discovered by this potential buyer, none other than, right here in the Rain!

Leesa & I reviewed the benefits of Active Rain's incredible search engine optimization and the reason behind this phoenomenon! Leesa is excited that she can post a blog and have it found by the search engines within 15 minutes!

Diane, from Lake Norman, shared the networking / problem solving capabilities of agent-to-agent posts (members only) and the benefits of having this network available to us. In our business, this is very important! One example that I can share is reading Katerina Gasset & Broker Bryant's posts on short sales, thinking a couple of years ago that short sales would never see the light of day in North Carolina! Well, was I ever wrong! For the past year, I've been using Active Rain as my primary source for learning short sales and networking with other agents who specialize in them. What a relief it has been to have the power of this network behind every aspect of a short sale for me and my team!

I reviewed the Ambassador program with Ms. West and explained how we're here to teach new menbers and mentor them until they can 'fly alone!' Barbara did join the network and found that the new member services were more than welcoming and that they were receptive and responsive to questions that new members have. Her comment, "They want to help you!" I just think that it's wonderful that this is the first impression that she got from her experience with Active Rain! Of course, I would expect nothing less--the AR staff have always been incredibly responsive to me--even when I had the silliest of questions--they are so giving of themselves, their knowledge and their time!

That is what I LOVE about Active Rain! Everyone WANTS to help make one another successful. How exciting to have our favorite real estate forum featured in the North Carolina Association of Realtors® Insight magazine! Kudos to my NC buddies, Leesa & Diane--great interviews and awesome promotion of our favorite real estate network. Hopefully we got the word out to other agents about the benefits of Active Rain!
