Listing Presentation - Huneycutt Team - Lisa Blanton

LISTING YOUR HOME

“My goal is to make your real estate experience stress free by providing the insight and advice you need to make the best decisions possible.”

I am proud and grateful to work with The Huneycutt Team at Cottingham Chalk. Our team approach allows us to provide exceptional service and expert advice from listing presentation to the closing table. We are dedicated to earning each client’s trust and maintaining long-term client relationships.

I love living in Charlotte and am blessed that my family and I have so many friends here in our community. One of my favorite things about working in real estate is when I get to help friends find the perfect house in a community where they feel “home”.

I moved to Charlotte in 1984 after graduating from UNC. I rented my first place in Dilworth and then stayed in the neighborhood for 31 years. My wife, Sherri, and I now live in SouthPark as empty nesters.

In 1991, I came to work for Cottingham Chalk, and have enjoyed being a realtor ever since. I especially love helping people make good decisions that affect their lives and their families’ happiness. Over the last 30+ years at Cottingham Chalk, I have been either the top agent or the top team more than 20 times. My sales have topped $875 million, and I am in the top 1% of agents in Charlotte.

Built on a foundation of integrity and trust, Cottingham Chalk has a long history of serving the Charlotte community.

From the beginning, our focus has been on people. Attracting the best brokers to build their careers under our roof and empowering them to provide excellent service to our community, and in turn, attracting the best clientele to trust us to shepherd them through the process of buying or selling a home.

We identify wonderful people and develop them into excellent real estate agents, not the other way around. Our focus on homegrown talent has created a collaborative environment where brokers work together, share ideas, and support each other — and our clients reap the benefits of working with agents who are their best selves. Our brokers start here, learn here, grow here, and flourish here. They are leaders in our community and our industry.

Now in our second generation of leadership, we are a family business more than ever. We help each other, we trust each other, we care about each other. When you work at Cottingham Chalk, you are part of the family. When you hire a Cottingham Chalk broker, you have the entire company in your corner.

As a local, independent company, we are free to focus on the big picture as opposed to next quarter’s numbers. We can stay the course when it is the right path, and we can adjust quickly when change is appropriate. As an exclusive member of Leading Real Estate Companies of the World®, we are equipped with market leading resources to serve our clients both locally and around the globe.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

“As first time home buyers, we weren’t sure what to expect. Enter Joe Huneycutt. Joe is incredibly knowledgeable, and it’s clear his years of experience have given him an unmatched awareness of the Charlotte area market. Not only did he guide us through the process, but he listened to our wants and needs and, before long, we found the perfect home. But Joe’s work didn’t end there. He is an impressive negotiator, and, combined with his extensive research he made sure we reached a fair price. Buying a home was a big decision for us, and Joe applied the time and care to make sure we knew he was there with us every step of the way. I highly recommend Joe and will be working with him again next time I’m in the market.”

- Padgett Sullivan

“Joe and his team of folks provided exceptional service to us on the buy and sell side. Joe knows the Charlotte real estate market inside and out. He has a good sense of value and never pressured us to look at homes outside of or at the high end of our budget. Joe was very accessible and was always available (or arranged for another agent on his team) to show us houses on our schedule. He gave us great recommendations on inspectors and contractors to do pre and post-inspection repairs. We would hire Joe Huneycutt and his team again if we needed to buy or sell a home in Charlotte. And we would recommend him to others without reservation.”

- Trevor Johnson

“Joe is an exceptional REALTOR® to work with. He is patient and has tremendous experience and knowledge that helps in all aspects of selling and buying a home. There are too many positive attributes to list, but Joe did a fabulous job in marketing our home, keeping us updated at all steps along the way, and being candid when asked of his opinion. We would recommend Joe to anyone who is thinking of buying or selling a home.”

- Kyle Fletcher

“ Joe and his team made the buying process for our first home a fantastic experience. Joe thoroughly educated my wife and I on the Charlotte housing market, and he held our hand through the entire buying process. Every step we took in the buying process, Joe and his team took the time to give us the information that we needed so that we could make timely and well informed decisions. Thank you again for helping my family buy our first home.”

- Ben Cherry

“Joe’s knowledge of the Charlotte real estate market is second to none. Having been in the real estate business for over 30 years, he is a trusted advisor when it comes to buying/selling real estate. Joe takes the time necessary to understand what is important to his clients, and once he finds properties that meet those criteria, provides objective advice about which of them is the best option. There are lots of reasons that Joe’s clients come back time and time again--he is responsive, knowledgeable, and simply a pleasure to deal with.”
