Sunny Yates

23 years on Lake Norman

I have worked one lake for twenty-three years, from the same office on West Catawba Avenue in Cornelius. I am a broker and an owner here, which means when something goes wrong in a deal there is nobody above me to escalate it to. It gets sorted, by me.

Most of my business comes from people I have already sold for, or from their neighbours. That is the whole business model, and it only works if I tell people the truth about a house, including when the truth is that they should not buy it.

I cover Cornelius, Davidson, Huntersville, Mooresville, Denver, Troutman, Statesville and the north side of Charlotte. If you ask me about somewhere I do not know well, I will say so and find you someone who does.

  • We absolutely love and highly recommend Sunny! Her years of experience, calm and confident demeanor, and expertise made what could be an extremely stressful transaction, easy and flawless! She is very knowledgable, quick to respond, easy to work with, kind, friendly, and very patient! Our home was a unique property and Sunny helped us to come up with a great sales strategy. I felt secure in every step of the home selling process working with Sunny. We had a lot of hiccups, and bumps along the road and Sunny helped us through all of them. Choose Sunny and you will be so glad you did!

  • My wife and I recently had the most professional and enjoyable experience purchasing a home with Sunny. She was there every step of the way and candidly this was the best home search / purchase we've ever had and we have lived in 3 states with over 10 home purchases.
