Titan Realty
Specialized Service and Dedication to Community In the current real estate market, it’s imperative to have an experienced and knowledgeable agent working on your behalf, whether you are a buyer or a seller. Titan Realty is a full-service boutique real estate firm specializing in Lake Norman and the surrounding areas. Owner and Broker-in-Charge Kristi Hand is a Lake Norman native and has worked with many area families since 1997. Her team consists of six real estate brokers, including herself, Client Care Coordinator Rhonda Walker, Transaction Coordinator and Office Manager Ellen Turner and builder/partner company Titan Custom Builders. Hand believes Titan Realty’s combined 50 years of real estate experience, client focus, staging and design savvy, and community engagement help set their firm apart from others. She enjoys consulting with clients on the benefits of strategically pricing their home and staging it to sell, because even though home values have skyrocketed, buyers are still very particular about what they are looking for. “This is really important, and I truly enjoy this part of the process,” says Hand, who has garnered several industry awards in the past year, including Realtor of the Year in the 2021 LNHBA Best of the Lake Design Competition. “I can use existing pieces of furniture to rearrange, provide staging accessories and advice on how to declutter and organize your 60

home. This can make a difference of thousands of dollars with the sell price.” Hand also utilizes an expansive marketing budget for all her listings— from professional photography to a 3D camera for agents to use along with social media advertising and personal property websites. She also networks with thousands of top producing agents and relocation companies across the country to further expand the firm’s reach and network to buyers. Titan Realty hosts the Annual Light up the Night 5K each year, with all proceeds going to combat human sex trafficking. In 2021 the event raised more than $50,000. They also partner with One Blood to hold an annual blood drive, participate in a Toys for Tots collection each holiday season, and coordinate community food donations for FeedNC. Hand considers herself fortunate to have grown up in this area and is now raising her family here. “What an incredible place to work and help other families sell their homes,” she says. “It really is a dream come true to live in Lake Norman.” 331 Alcove Road, Suite 103, Mooresville 704.201.3691 www.titanrealty.com
