PROFESSIONAL PROFILE
Kelly Bost-Warren
I was born in Charlotte and currently live in the area. After college, I was in the business world of finance for fourteen years. I was a Financial Controller and Analyst and the only US representative on an audit team for an international company. After I left the financial field, I solely owned and operated a fitness center for over seven years. I sold my business and became a Realtor in 2006 to allow time to be with my family.
I have been around Real Estate most of my life as I am a second generation Realtor. My Mother owned the #1 Real Estate company in most of North and South Carolina for many years. She is now retired and my personal "go to" Real Estate consultant. I have been a licensed Real Estate Broker in North Carolina since April 2006 and South Carolina since the fall of 2006. I have taken all courses necessary to not only be a Broker, but an ethical Realtor.
After my first year of Real Estate, I was awarded the 2006/2007 Rookie of the Year by Prudential for production and service. I quickly became qualified, tested and certified for Relocation transactions for buyers and sellers from AIRes, SIRVA, Altair, NuCompass, Berkshire Hathaway, Quest and other companies. During 2011, I worked for Prudential Relocation Services for seven months. This allowed me to learn all sides of Relocation, as I was in charge of 32 corporate inventory homes. I completed dozens of ERC-BMA analytical marketing and economic Relocation reports. In 2013, I was one of three agents in the company requested to be background cleared and tested for FBI Relocation qualification.
Since 2007, every year I have been awarded the Five Stars Award in Real Estate. I was also awarded the "Top Producer" for Carolinas Metro Realty for 2013, 2014 and 2015. In 2015, my company mergerd with the international company, Engel & Volkers. Also in 2015, I acquired my Accredited Buyer's Representation designation and became a graduate of the Charlotte Regional Realtor Association Leadership Academy. In 2016, I acquired my diploma from the Graduate Realtor Institute.
Having a financial background and owning my own business in the past has given me the analytical and organizational skills to get the optimal results for my customers. My caring personal relationship with each customer allows me to acquire the most financial and emotional benefit while utilizing my expertise, dedication and integrity to make their experience happy and memorable. The best appreciation I receive from my clients is repeat business and referrals, which I always welcome. I am a hardworking, independent, loyal, family-oriented individual who often turns my clients into lifetime friends.
