"Laina was amazing through every part of selling our home. She priced and staged our home perfectly - it sold in one day, getting more than we asked. She was on top of every inspection and needed repair. Laina made the whole process easy. She is extremely professional, personable, and detailed oriented." - Nicole B.

"I had a house to sell, and I tried to list the house myself as owner, and then listed it with a friend, and the offer price just kept being reduced. Finally, Laina came in, and in this situation, suggested updates that were needed for our somewhat dated and unique house. I told Laina 2 things: 1) show me how much I could sell it for with her suggested updates and that increase had to be twice the cost of the improvement work and 2) I wanted nothing to do with picking colors, fixtures, etc...So Laina gave me her estimated price with the work complete and then I told her how much it would cost, and amazingly the upside was about twice the expense. So the work began. Laina engaged the help of an interiors company and together they made every decision. Upon the work being finished, Laina listed the house. In less than a week, I was under contract. I closed at an increased price above where I had last listed it (over twice the cost of the updates.) Laina was constantly inspecting the construction work, took the initiative whenever possible to keep the process moving, was professional in every way. As I hope is obvious, she went above and beyond and was a credit to her industry. Can’t say enough." - Katie & Scott W.

"Laina was the godsend that my husband and i needed when moving down to Charlotte. We are new to the area, and Laina was so wonderful and knowledgeable about showing us all the possible areas. When we finally found the perfect house (a new build), she walked us through the building process, found the best home inspector imaginable, and really helped us stay on top of every detail. She really goes the extra mile for her clients, and made us already feel at home in a foreign city. We couldn’t have done this without her." - Chris & Elisabeth

"Laina was fantastic! She staged our home to perfection and secured magazine-ready photos for the listing. Our house sold in one weekend, well-above asking price (and way above what anyone imagined we could get for it). She was an absolute delight to work with and we have already recommended her to friends, neighbors, and colleagues." - Kate F.
Laina’s experience launching a wellness retail store in the world renowned Cleveland Clinic hospital, as well as her training in yoga and meditation make her an ideal companion on the path to home buying and selling. She has the poise, local knowledge, and outstanding relationship skills to lead every transaction to success.
After 12 years living in Charlotte, Laina feels like a native. She understands the many concerns of moving to a new city and state after relocating for her husband’s job in 2011. Laina has been married to her husband Sal for 23 years and has two daughters in college. She enjoys contributing her time and energy as a volunteer and past board member at Gracious Hands Transitional Housing as well as sponsoring All-In To Fight Cancer, an annual Texas Hold'em tournament in March benefitting local cancer organizations.
