Looking to sell your property, buy a new home, or just need some expert real estate advice?

About
With the first part of my career spent in Advertising & Marketing at some of the top firms in New York, I now thrive in the Charlotte real estate market bringing together significant backgrounds including sales and marketing, new construction, home renovations, design, staging, and investment property. These disciplines have come together to bring my clients a tremendous advantage in an ever-changing market. Coupled with a direct, no-nonsense approach, I consistently achieve the best results and highest value for my clients.

Originally from Long Island NY and a graduate of East Carolina University, I now call Charlotte home since 2008. As a father of 4 kids and 2 dachshunds, I am no stranger to a busy lifestyle! My goal is to make the purchase or sale of your home as easy as possible while building a personal brand that’s innovative and reliable with a quality service guarantee. Looking forward to your business and the productive and prosperous relationship.

Eric is top notch and well respected in Charlotte. He helped us find our home in ONE DAY! He is beyond thorough on understanding your wants and needs for a home and understands the making of a house and how it is built. He is honest, and a phenomenal negotiator. And his referral partners are great as well. He has surrounded himself with elite and talented professionals. Go to Eric and you will be extremely satisfied.

One of the most professional real estate agents we've ever worked with. He educated us on the process and kept us in the loop the entire time. We really felt that he had our best interests at heart and really looked out for us. We love our home and don't plan on moving anytime soon but when we do, we will call Eric and have referred him to friends and families that have had great experiences with him as well! A+ experience!

Eric is very knowledgeable about the market and the quality of craftsmanship in the homes that we looked at, especially considering that we wanted an older home with character. He was able to easily steer us away from properties that were not quality products to help us find a house that we both really love in the perfect neighborhood! Although we haven't closed on the house yet, I've ALWAYS felt that Eric was sincere, honest and trustworthy, almost like a big brother that has your back. My mother is also looking to purchase a house in the Charlotte market and I definitely feel comfortable with Eric being the right realtor for her as well. He puts his clients first and works hard for you behind the scenes to ensure that you get the best deal possible. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends or family! Great guy!

Eric Layne is very professional and one of the most knowledgeable and helpful real state agent I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. He assisted us during such a stressful time selling a house out of state and finding our dream home. I would strongly recommend Eric to all my friends and family. His expertise, patience and negotiation skills are impressive not to mention his attention to detail throughout the entire process! Thank you Eric for turning such a stressful time into a positive experience!
