"Regina Farmer was my realtor from February - August 2009 and my wife and I could not have asked for a better advocate on our behalf.  Regina really knows the greater Charlotte area and was able to narrow down our search considerably just based on her knowledge and some basic criteria laid out by my wife and me.  She made herself available to us on our schedule, which usually meant weekends - extremely convenient for out of town buyers (we were moving from Atlanta, GA) like my wife and me.  Regina is also a very strong advocate for her clients, going the extra mile to ensure the closing happens the way her clients need it to.  She has a number of good relationships with both lenders and real estate law firms which can come in handy when dealing with any last minute coordination that is often required.

In addition to what Regina brings to the table, her unique circumstance of being married to an experienced home builder (and native Charlottean) provides another great set of advantages to her clients.  Her husband Chip can provide on the spot evaluations of the quality of construction of most homes and has numerous contractor connections to meet a variety of real estate needs.  In fact, because of Chip's connections, my wife and I were able to deal with a last minute, obscure loan requirement centered around the gas fireplace in our home.  Without Chip's help, our closing would likely have been delayed.

Choosing Regina Farmer for your realtor is a no-brainer.  Between her and Chip, they can handle any situation that might come up during your search, and will work very hard to make this inherently stressful experience as smooth and as manageable as possible."

"My husband and I recently purchased our first home and were very nervous about the process.  Making matters even more frightening was the fact that we were shopping for a house on the East Coast while residing on the West Coast and dealing with all the details of a major military transfer. My husband is a Chief in the Navy and can be gone for extended periods at a time. My mother-in-law referred us to Regina at SCCH Realty and we are so grateful.  She really took all the stress out of the entire process.  Despite the fact that her office is located in North Carolina, we were in California and looking to buy in Virginia, she contacted and interviewed local agents to find just the right person for us.  She helped us evaluate lenders, loan products and insurance policies.  She directed us to information on school districts and crime rates in order to help us be certain we were moving to a safe neighborhood in which to raise our children.  We knew we were in very good hands when Regina pointed out possible pitfalls we would never have known to sidestep or information we would not have known to research.  She monitored every step along the way and coordinated every detail, ensuring a very smooth transaction."

“My wife and I relocated from Boston, MA to Huntersville, NC and we absolutely could not have done it without Regina’s help.  We were not only relocating, we were also first time home buyers.  Regina was there for us every step of the way to guide us through the process.  We knew the general area where we wanted to live, but thanks to Regina’s knowledge and research we found the perfect town and sub-division.  It was a pleasure working with Regina - she took the stress out of the home buying process and we ended up with our dream house!”

- Captain and Mrs. Eric Mannarino, Republic Airlines, Huntersville, NC


"From the pre-approval on our mortgage to closing on our first home in Louisville, Kentucky, Regina was by our side, helping me and my husband every single step of way! Always patient, Regina quickly anticipated and prevented any potential problems that could have occurred due to my husband's simultaneous deployment and my long-distance move from North Dakota. As if that weren't enough, Regina and her husband, Chip, also reviewed our home inspection and made recommendations on how we should proceed based on those results. I am now happily enjoying my new life in Louisville, and I know that when we are ready to buy our next home, Regina will be my first call."

"Working with Regina was an absolute dream! We were a quick relocation from Benton Beach, FL and had one day to find a house, so we needed to have someone with thorough area knowledge and sharp negotiation s kills. Without hesitation, Regina understood the type of home we were looking for and the area that best suited our needs. Her positivity kept us going as we looked at house after house; and her comprehensive construction knowledge was key to our decision making.   Regina’s follow up skills were impeccable from first walk through to the offer and right up until we moved in. She truly was in “our corner” in finding the perfect house for us."

– Jack and Kathleen Bajart, Huntersville, NC


"I would highly recommend Regina as an agent. Her knowledge and experience are unique because of her understanding of home construction and local builders. She has great awareness of the Charlotte market, which is invaluable for someone like me moving in from out of state. Regina was also able to work with our relocation schedule. We had limited time in the area and she focused our efforts to accomplish our search in a short amount of time. In fact, we found our dream house in Charlotte because she came back out on a Sunday to show us "just one more house." Having her husband, a general contractor, as an additional resource was fantastic. We were able to take a lot of the uncertainty out of the home-buying process prior to our inspection. They could also provide us with an understanding and estimates for future improvements that we wanted to consider to make our home our own. Regina has put us in contact with quality resources to complete our home improvement projects without any of the hassel of finding a trustworthy contractor. Based on our experiences with Regina, we have recommended her to a number of our friends and colleagues and will continue to do so in the future."

"My wife and I were first-time home buyers.  All the time you hear about these horror stories of how crazy it can be purchasing your first home.  With the help of Regina and her company, our first-time home buying experience went very smoothly and required little effort on our part.  She took the extra time to really get to know us and what we were looking for in our first home.  She was able to find us an incredible brand new townhome that had everything we wanted!  She was very knowledgeable and always available to talk with us on any questions we had throughout the entire experience.  Her husband Chip, a contractor, even took time out of his schedule and came to our closing walk through to ensure everything with our new home was up to standard.  We have to say Regina and her company really went the extra mile to make sure our experience was smooth and successful.  There is no doubt that when it is time for my wife and I to upgrade to a bigger home we will be using SCCH Realty again.  Thanks Regina for all you have done!”

- Brandon Ratliff, Director of First Impressions for a local CPA Firm; Charlotte, NC

“Being a first-time home buyer was frightening for me, but Regina stood by me for three years, and is still always available if I have any questions or concerns.  Having her as my realtor took a lot of stress off of me.  I never had to worry about anything.  She always took the extra time to take me to different developments and look at different houses to see what I liked.  She found me a townhouse with an awesome price.  With her expertise, and knowledge everything was perfect.  Even for my walk through and closing, she stood by me the whole entire way, and I am very thankful for that.  If it was not for her I would not be in my house today.  Whenever I decide to purchase again, Regina will be the one I call. I would like to again thank Regina and her company for making my first home purchase very successful and stress-free for me.  What an awesome job she did and is still doing today.”

"I bought my first home in 2005 and Regina drove me around town for a few days until I discovered a neighborhood in Charlotte called 'Elizabeth' and fell in love!  I was new to Charlotte and was living downtown so Regina opened my eyes to different parts of the city.  So after touring through NoDa, Plaza Midwood, Uptown, we came upon a newly renovated condominium complex in Elizabeth and I absolutely love it!!!  I signed the contract soon after seeing the condo for the first time.  A year and half later my fiancé and I bought our home just blocks away from my first condo in Elizabeth that is now being rented out.  So in total Regina has helped us find two really great  properties that she helped us negotiate a good price on, so when the time came we were able to rent them out.  It's nice to know that we can always count on Regina to help us from the beginning to the end of the purchase of a home.  She makes the process seem so easy and that makes us feel very comfortable!"

- Christina Maloney, Charlotte, NC

"Regina was a huge part of our move from Tampa, Fl to Murrells Inlet, SC. Not only did she find a great realtor to list and sell our home, but she also helped us by our home in SC.  She was with us every step of the way and her husband who is a General Contractor went to all of our walk throughs for us since we could not travel for them. Regina helped us with our loan by working together with our loan officer and stayed on top of the transaction with our home in Florida. We were leaving the home we raised our children in and because of Regina and her company it was a stress-free experience. We knew we were in good hands. We will continue to refer her to all of our friends and family."

"Southern Classic Realty and Southern Classic Custom Homes changed the whole selling experience of my house. I had been dreading putting my house on the market with all the things you have to do. Regina Farmer took all the worry and time I would have had to spend out of the total process. Her husband and partner, Chip Farmer, was able to make the necessary renovations! Regina gave me the right guidance on staging, photography, video marketing for the web, and pricing. My house sold in two weeks and for more money than I had originally thought. Regina and Chip's dual efforts are unique. When I bought my next home, I used Regina again. I didn't know what renovations to do, and I knew with the reputation of SCCH Realty and Southern Classic Custom Homes, they would be fair and honest. We had Chip handle all of my renovations on the new home after I closed. It was a great experience and very affordable."
