DwellNova was born following the 2009 recession in Charlotte, when the founders witnessed a toughening-up period of our business — the strong survived. This, coupled with the evolution of technology, has really changed the way we work. Traditional main street business is a thing of the past, but it’s not just enough to be online either, you have to be pushing sales through multiple online marketing channels. We are more of a technology company that specializes in real estate.
We view the model of realtors being independent contractors out to fend for themselves as broken, it’s inefficient, and if you want to compete and serve your customers and clients exceptionally, you need to pool resources and inventory. DwellNova is a marketing alliance.
Charlotte Luxury Real Estate Agents offering unparalleled performance, integrity and professionalism.
Says Giles Barker who been selling real estate in many of its forms internationally since 1998. “We see Charlotte as an exciting place to live and raise a family. Affordable living, wonderful climate, great schools, excellent employment opportunities anchored by the Banking Industry and plenty to do in every direction, are just a few reasons Charlotte has prospered over the last decade. No wonder it has made it to become one of the most popular cities to move to in recent years, and this trend shows no sign of slowing.”
What makes us different? “We go the extra mile marketing, advertising and branding our listings to ensure that our luxury homes are exposed to the widest audience while maintaining an element of exclusivity – plus we are known for our vivacious tenacity of not resting until it is sold.” Giles adds “We focus on Prime Charlotte Real Estate and have collected a vast database of active buyers. We are a specialized group backed by the global reach of the internet, crossed with the entrepreneurialism and personal touch of a boutique agency. We hope you find this business model refreshing and inviting.”
