Jeffrey King

After studying biology in college, Jeff King became fascinated with building and creating things with his own hands. He began crafting custom guitars at Santa Cruz Guitar Co. and fell in love with carpentry and home building. It was this love of creating that brought him to Charlotte.

In 2003, Jeff moved from California to Charlotte to renovate houses and to be closer to family. Although he missed the beach and surfing, he fell in love with Charlotte. The Charlotte housing market was far more affordable than the market in California, so he was able to purchase his first home. Since then, he has bought several others, remodeling and renovating them along the way. He loves the mechanics of homebuilding and renovation.

Through this experience, he developed a passion for bringing old homes back to life and became fascinated by the historical neighborhoods around uptown. He loves the idea of retaining the history of a home while customizing it to fit the need of the owner.

Over the years, he has studied the “in town” market and spent time exploring Charlotte’s neighborhoods. It was through his understanding of carpentry, renovation, and the market, and some prodding from family and friends that he finally decided to get his real estate license in 2006.

Currently, Jeff lives in Historic Plaza Midwood. The bars with great restaurants, the park to play with my children, and the friendly people waving from their porches in this charming neighborhood called his name from day one. Due to his California roots, he is super passionate about the Plaza Midwood, NoDa neighborhoods, and the areas around them.

For over ten years, he has served his clients with his no-holds-barred honesty and transparency, even if they do not want to hear it. He wants to make sure his clients find the home that is the perfect financial and emotional investment for them. He is an investor, a property owner (Charlotte and Costa Rica), a carpenter, and he understands the ins and outs of home owning and buying better than most.

Whether you are looking for a great home to live in, an investment to add to your portfolio or a renovation project, Jeff can help you find that perfect place. He will handle the contractors and everything else while you focus on living. Oh, and he still loves surfing and playing music!
