Houses in Charlotte

Are you looking at houses in Charlotte? The list of homes for sale in the area can seem overwhelming and trying to figure out which part your family would fit in best only adds to the distress. But finding a home shouldn’t be stressful. The process should be a happy time in your families life whether it’s your first home purchase or fifth.

To help narrow down the endless amount of options, I decided to highlight some of qualities you should consider when trying to find that perfect home in Charlotte.

With Charlotte being a very family oriented city, you can find some great houses in Charlotte for very affordable prices. Of course, it all depends on what your idea of affordable is and where your price range falls.

After you have a price in mind, consider what your other priorities are. Do you have children? Then obviously nearby schools and ones with a great reputation would top the list. Are you looking for a house in Charlotte that’s near a lot of great entertainment or one in a more quiet, disclosed neighborhood? These are great qualities to consider and really help narrow down that list of homes that seemed endless at the beginning.


The South Charlotte area such as Ballantyne and Blakeney locations are great for young couples or families that enjoy good restaurants, convenient shopping locations, and nearby entertainment. As for price, a single family home in this area can range around $250,000 and increase the more south you go.

Houses in charlotte that are closer to the University area will fall in the more affordable range to help target its younger demographic. There are numerous apartments, townhomes, and smaller homes that are great for a recent graduate or young couple. But if it’s a quite and more disclosed neighborhood with luxurious homes that you’re looking then the first option would be for you. 

To help narrow down your options even more, visiting a real estate website is a very helpful tool. You can see details such as nearby schools, how they rank, what the real estate market is like in that area, and what type of nearby entertainment there is just to name a few. Another great feature is the ability to email a realtor there on the spot. Narrowing down your options on a site like such is a great start but a realtor provides that experience that will get you closer to that perfect house in charlotte you’ve been searching for.
