Bio

Ken has spent the last 10 years helping clients buy their perfect home or sell their home for top-dollar across the Charlotte Metro Area.  His list-to-sell ratio is one of the highest in Charlotte, while his days-on-market average is one of the lowest. With his extensive network of Realtors and builders – plus a deep knowledge of Charlotte’s historic in-town neighborhoods – Ken has a proven ability to make sure buyers and sellers successfully navigate the competitive, fast-paced Charlotte market.  He also brings passion and diligence to every client relationship while keeping the process fun and relaxed. 

Ken moved to Charlotte from Manhattan in 2008, and fell in love with the Queen City and her friendly Southern charm. He and his family live in Plaza Midwood. When he’s not negotiating smooth transactions to find you the right home at the right price or selling your home for top dollar, Ken spends time raising money for the literacy organization he founded.  Realtors Read encourages childhood literacy by giving books to local kindergarten students in Title 1 schools.

Ken has garnered Charlotte's Best Broker Award by Charlotte Observer, Top Broker in Plaza Midwood (Charlotte's Hottest Neighborhood), Real Trends Top 100 and Real Producers Top 100 in North Carolina.

Testimonials

  • Ken negotiated for a higher design upgrade credit and expertly worked with the builder on some other matters. I truly appreciated his advice as I was a first time homebuyer and couldn't imagine going through the process with anyone else. Highly recommended!!

  • We’ve bought and sold several homes in the past 5 yrs and Ken is, by far, the best realtor we’ve ever used. His outstanding communications, hard work and transparency make him #1. We will use him again and we’ve already recommended him to friends.

    Peter Marsden
  • One of the first things you'll notice about Ken is his keen eye for setting your property sale up for success. His marketing is second to none. In particular, his ability to highlight a property's value in words and pictures has no equal. The result was a quick, lucrative, and relatively painless property sale. I know he says he's in the Real Estate Business, but we think he's really in the peace of mind business.

  • Ken’s easy-going, but professional approach to home buying made him easy to work with. His dedication to clients is emphasized by his timely responses to questions and concerns any day of the week. I strongly recommend Ken to represent anyone through their home purchasing process!

    Reilly M.
  • Ken is an excellent realtor.  He helped us buy our first house a few years ago, finding us the perfect house within two weeks after another realtor had showed us properties for six months.  This go round, not only did he help us stage and price our home for immediate sale (over asking price on the first day it showed), but he helped us search for the perfect new home.  He provided great advice and humor along the way.  I have recommended him often and everyone sings his praises.  I’m grateful to call him my realtor and friend.
