33+ years finding mountain and lakefront property across Western North Carolina. Broker-in-Charge, Pinnacle Sotheby's International Realty.
Ken and his wife Mary relocated to Western North Carolina from Santa Barbara, California in 1988, and have called Lake Lure home ever since. Over 33 years, Ken has built a real estate career on local knowledge and long-term relationships — not just closing deals, but understanding the communities, the land, and the market trends that actually matter here.
Ken serves on the Lake Lure Zoning and Planning Board, reflecting a long-standing commitment to thoughtful local growth — the kind of on-the-ground perspective that only comes from being genuinely part of a community, not just selling in it.
