Mel grew up in Florida, then spent time in California and Atlanta, Georgia before moving to Charlotte in 2000. Prior to Real Estate, he held a regional sales and marketing position within the technology industry. Mel has always had an entrepreneurial spirit and because of that, he started consulting with small businesses in 2000, teaching them consultative sales and marketing. While consulting with a general contracting firm, he became acquainted with renovating homes, in which he found success and great joy. As a result, he decided to become licensed in Real Estate in 2005. “I’ve never wanted to be a transactional Realtor, but rather a lifelong Real Estate consultant for my clients.” As such, he takes considerable, attentive care with each of his clients.
