WORKING WITH
LEIGH C. CORSO
Charlotte is a place I am proud to call home. As a native Charlottean & secondgeneration REALTOR®, I have established relationships in our community & a deep knowledge of the market. I strive to provide my clients with a streamlined & informative experience.
GET TO KNOW
LEIGH For as long as I can remember, I knew I wanted to be a REALTOR®. My dad, Dan, and John Chalk opened Cottingham Chalk before I was born, so, I guess you could say I was born into real estate. After graduating from UNC Chapel Hill in 2007, it was game time. I actually think I was lucky to enter this business during a downturn because it allowed me to learn the market from all angles and better appreciate the successes I’ve achieved over the years. I’ve always been a bit of a perfectionist with high expectations and strong determination. I treat each client with equal enthusiasm and dedication, with a goal of developing life-long relationships. Having grown up in this great city, I offer a unique perspective to my clients, from the inside scoop on certain houses and neighborhoods to the best Mexican restaurant in town. I love what I do. Real estate is 24/7, but I make sure to find time for philanthropy. Charlotte has given so much to me, it’s fulfilling to give a little back.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY
“We’ve been privileged to work with Leigh on 3 milestone transactions for our family—the purchase of our first home, the sale of that home and the purchase of our “upsized” family home. From the start of our home ownership in Sedgefield to our move into Dilworth, we were extremely fortunate to benefit from Leigh’s local expertise and unmatched knowledge of these highly-desirable and competitive Charlotte neighborhoods. Combined with her tireless work ethic, responsiveness, reliability, organization, market visibility, network of contractors and agents, personal accountability, and the collective support of a top team at CC, we consider Leigh to be the very best REALTOR® among a strong set of qualified peers. Perhaps most importantly, Leigh was patient and careful to consider our goals and objectives, and she continued to keep us updated with new opportunities and market insights between the purchases of our first and second homes. This personalized service proved to be invaluable, especially given the current real estate market dynamics, and she helped us navigate tight market windows and achieve very successful outcomes. Thank you, Leigh!” — Alyse & Kevin
“Without hesitation, we can say that Leigh is simply the best! She navigated both the selling and buying process flawlessly. Leigh brings a highly refined skill set to the real estate process. In addition to being knowledgeable about the market and direct with her opinions and insight, Leigh skillfully attends to the needs and dreams of her clients. Equipped with a keen eye and impeccable taste, Leigh strikes a perfect balance between easy to work with, thorough and highly professional. In both the buying and selling process, it is evident she is respected by local REALTORS® as well as Cottingham Chalk colleagues. She professionally leverages her relationships to ensure the whole process moves smoothly and negotiations are seamless. Leigh is truly amazing, and any client would be fortunate to work with her in their real estate process! We look forward to working with Leigh in the years to come for all of our residential real estate needs!” — Claire & David
“We have now worked with Leigh on 5 real estate transactions in Charlotte over the last decade and could not be happier. She and her assistant Becca helped us navigate numerous challenges in our recent buy/sell scenario, from changing market conditions to prepping our house for 20 showings with two young kids to hurricanes affecting our property under contract at the 11th hour. No detail was missed by these 2 and they truly went above and beyond to help manage our daily stress level! Leigh’s patience, knowledge, and professionalism throughout the process held us together and landed us our dream home! Thank you Leigh and Becca!” — Margaret & Will
“We have enjoyed working with Leigh for the last few years on the buying and selling of our first home, as well as the purchase of our second home. She is incredibly responsive, knowledgeable about the Charlotte market and helped us turn our first home into a lucrative investment. She answers our (millions) of questions and didn’t waste our time on homes that weren’t right for us. Most importantly, she makes the process as straightforward and dare I say, as enjoyable as possible.
Leigh has also helped us with investment properties. I believe responsiveness is the most important quality one would look for in a REALTOR®. Leigh goes above and beyond when it comes to responsiveness and communicating. Furthermore, throughout the buying/ selling process, her experience in the industry and knowledge of the area quickly becomes evident. I would highly recommend using Leigh’s services.” — Jess & Chris
