Lake Norman VideoAbout Theo Pretorius

I am a Licensed Realtor, Broker, Mortgage Loan Originator and Certified Distressed Property Expert.   For 12 years I have been a resident of Charlotte, NC, and your Charlotte and Lake Norman Realtor.  My wife and I fell in love with the area after surviving many years in the snow belt of Michigan and found the Deep South to be a perfectly charming and a wonderful place to raise a family.  The Charlotte and Lake Norman area is no comparison to our old frosty, northern home.  The scenery is magnificent, the weather is balmy and the lifestyle is great.  
 
My goal is simple:  To share my knowledge and professional expertise of the Charlotte and Lake Norman Real Estate market to provide guidance and direction in all matters of real estate transactions in these trying times of economic uncertainty.  Things have been looking up lately, but we still have as long way to go.  I will put my years of executive experience to good use for the residents of the Charlotte and Lake Norman area, offering advice, mentoring, negotiation and research.  I pride myself on offering a business style of integrity, offering my understanding of Lake Norman Real Estate, my experience in financial transactions, and my abilities to counsel each and every client towards achieving the home of their dreams.
