UPTOWN CHARLOTTE NORTH CAROLINA

Tall, glamorous and packed with amenities — Uptown Charlotte’s collection of high-rise condominiums offer luxury like no other. Whether seeking to downsize or get closer to the action, one thing’s for sure: Buyers are flocking to Charlotte’s four wards for a taste of sky-high living. “The Uptown market is booming,” says Shane McDevitt, owner of the McDevitt Agency. “Inventory is low, demand is way up, interest rates are still favorable and the growth of Uptown is bringing more and more people here.” Sandy Kindbom, agent with Allen Tate, agrees. “The market is very good right now,” says Kindbom. “The two main buyer groups are young professionals and pre-retirement buyers that have sold their bigger homes in the suburbs and want to enjoy a much different lifestyle.”McDevitt, who’s lived in Uptown since 2001, points out a variety of reasons that make high-rise condominiums appealing to buyers. “High-rise living not only offers great views, it offers an exciting urban lifestyle with in-building amenities and walkability to other city amenities just outside your front door.”
