## Story

Under the leadership of broker/owner David DiGioia, DiGioia Realty has been a staple of the Charlotte and Lake Norman real estate markets for over a decade. David is a top producer in Charlotte and has earned multiple production awards over the course of his 20-year career. David has been named as one of the top 100 producers in Lake Norman real estate sales and earned the Top Negotiator Award in 2020 from HomeLight.

He has also been named a Five Star Real Estate Agent Award from Five Star Professional. Most recently he was featured as the cover story in the Charlotte Real Producers Magazine in June of 2023.

Alongside David are his son, Anthony, and his wife, Nancy. Anthony is a Clemson University graduate who now assists in the management of the business. In 2022 he was one of only 12 agents named to Charlotte’s “Rising Star Real Estate Agent” list. Nancy will focus on recruiting, retention and professional development.

Now doing business as CENTURY 21 DiGoia Realty, David and his team of affiliated sales professionals will have access to the CENTURY 21® brand’s technology and marketing, lead generation, agent learning and coaching, and innovative productivity platform to help better serve and deliver the highest quality of service to buyers, sellers and investors.

The DiGioia team takes a very hands-on approach with their clients during the buying and selling process. The DiGioia hands-on approach is made possible by the company’s emphasis on relationship-building. As a family-led company, they understand and highlight the importance of relating to the people with whom they work. The company’s motto is that they aim to be a client’s “real estate professional for life.”

“As a company, we have all been very fortunate to experience success in a market that’s extremely enticing to agents and consumers alike,” said David. “However, we know that we can still achieve more. The most obvious answer as to how to accomplish that was as a CENTURY 21 affiliated company. While we can bring our clients the local knowledge they need, the brand will provide us with the reputation and opportunities to expand our range of services even further.”

“We’re excited to be a part of David, Nancy and Anthony’s evolution as they bring their company to the next level,” said Mike Miedler, president and CEO of Century 21 Real Estate LLC.

David and his team invite area residents seeking a new professional opportunity to visit them at 17718 Kings Point Dr., Cornelius, NC 28031.
