What Our Clients Say
Every review reflects the standard of service we bring to every transaction. From luxury waterfront estates to military relocations, first-time buyers to estate sales, our clients trust us with their most important decisions.
“Everyone deserves the extraordinary, because luxury is not about price, rather it's about an experience. And when it comes to real estate, experience matters.
“Vic and Amy were excellent to work with. Over the last 7+ years we have been involved in 6 Real Estate Transactions so we have had the opportunity to work with realtors on both the selling and buying side. We were fortunate to meet Vic and Amy through one of their listings. We were not represented by a realtor and felt so comfortable with their professionalism and knowledge that we did not feel that we needed representation. The experience was so good that we engaged them on the sale of our home. We found it very beneficial to have a husband and wife team that have complimentary skillsets as they were able to bring different perspectives to preparing for the listing of our home. They came to the table with a Listing Price that was supported by a lot of research on sales comps and local market knowledge. This was accompanied by a robust marketing plan that included extensive photography and video to ensure the homes beauty was reflected. It was executed through the thoughtful use of publications that matched prospects to our listing. All of this led to a contract within 12 hours of listing at full listing price. It ended with a seamless sales closing process!
“My husband and I were living out of state when we placed our home on the market. Amy has stepped in as our representative to handle all of the issues that have come up in making the sale. She has spent many early mornings and late afternoons doing things at our home that made the sale possible.
“Amy did an excellent job of selling our home. She worked very hard to get the sale completed.
“Amy has always gone over and above to help with my purchase and sale of my property. I will always recommend her to anyone I know.
“Amy and Vic are amazing and knowledgeable real estate agents in the Lake Norman region. After a long and careful search, they helped my wife and I find the perfect family lake house for us. In addition, they have a great network of qualified home inspection, home improvement, dock repair, and landscaping contractors. It's been a pleasure working with them.
“Recently gave Amy a challenging listing as my daughter's mother passed away on Lake Norman. She jumped in like a 24hr 7day concierge handling all aspects of the listing. Her expertise on remodel and cleaning up the property led to a contract 48hrs after listing. Highly recommend retaining her services.
“From my first call with Amy, I knew I was in great hands. Amy is extremely knowledgeable and her follow-up is unmatched. Selling my mom's home after her passing was emotional and Amy made the process as easy as possible for my family & I. Amy was extremely responsive with any questions I had along the way. I cannot recommend her enough!
“Everything handled professionally and timely. Knowledgeable and experienced.
“Excellent communication, kept us informed.
“Professional, exceptional people skills, extremely knowledgeable regarding real estate market, including how to market, how to list, when to list, how to price our home... no stone unturned. We are very very pleased with our experience with Amy Petrenko. The best we have ever dealt with when buying and selling properties. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
“I first started out trying to help my New York-based elderly mother find a very small home near us in the Lake Norman area. Amy was the only realtor out of the numerous ones I contacted who kept in touch with my mother, and sent her listings regularly over the course of months. When circumstances changed and my husband and I decided to sell our own Lake Norman home, we had no doubt whom to call. Amy and Vic blew us away with their level of knowledge, professionalism, attention-to-detail, class, patience, and kindness. They know the market and area well from experience, but also use the most up-to-date, computerized tools in order to ground their opinions in data. We needed renovations done, so they brought in a top-notch team for that. When the listing finally went live, we had hundreds of thousands of views. Multiple buyers flew in from out of state to see our home. In the end, we were able to choose from 3 competing offers. We have bought and sold several properties over the last two decades and never before had such a seamless and elevated experience of professionalism from a broker.
“I retired, so we wanted to downsize from our large house which we owned for 8 years. With Vic and Amy's advice and recommended contractors, we repainted the interior, refinished the floors and repaired cosmetic damage. We sold the house empty with virtual staging. Vic and Amy found us a new home in a nearby town in a beautiful development that was very affordable. They managed a smooth and harmonious dual closing so that we were out of the old house and into the new on same day. We are very happy with the trade and are enjoying our new home immensely.
“We recently had the pleasure of working with Victor and Amy Petrenko to find our new home, and we can confidently say that the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The communication throughout the process was outstanding. The Petrenko's were always available to answer questions, provide updates, and offer advice. They took the time to listen to our concerns and preferences, making us feel like a valued client rather than just another transaction. We cannot recommend both Victor and Amy Petrenko highly enough.
“Amy and Vic sold our condo in Cornelius. They were excellent communicators and kept us up-to-date continuously. They worked tirelessly for us throughout the entire process and went above and beyond the call of duty.
“Amy listens to and understands her clients real estate goals. She works tirelessly and produces results! I wouldn't use any other agent in the Lake Norman/Charlotte area.
“The experience we had with the dynamic husband and wife duo, Vic and Amy Petrenko, could not have been better. From the first moment through the last, their professionalism was always evident. Each step, from the discussion of the listing price, to the marketing strategy and through the completion of the sale, was smooth, meticulous and very successful.
“We would highly recommend Vic and Amy Petrenko to sell your house. They were prepared, professional, and prompt. They explained the process of selling the home, made suggestions to improve the sale, and followed through with every question we had. We could not have been happier with them as our realtor and would recommend them to friends and family.
“Very professional, extremely attention to detail.
“I own the trademark to the Sales Funnel and have written 3 books on sales. When I decided to list my home on Lake Norman I did my research and it became clear to me that Vic and Amy were who I wanted to represent me. My home sold quickly and without any hassle.
“The Petrenko Group listed our Farm for sale. One of the best introduction meetings I've attended. They were thorough with listing process down to closing process. The Farm was listed in several publications in several states. They shot a video listing and drone footage of the property which truly showed the property. Amy Petrenko kept in touch every week including emails with the Seller's Report. They are on Top when it comes to realtors. Always professional and always considerate. I highly recommend them.
“Over the years I have dealt with many real estate agents. None of them exhibited the professionalism, the caring, or the honesty as Vic and Amy Petrenko have. I highly recommend them!!

“Vic and Amy Petrenko were the ultimate professionals when we listed our home with them. Excellent communication throughout the process and extremely thorough. In my opinion, they were the best agents I have ever dealt with and would highly recommend their services.
“Amy was absolutely stellar in helping us secure our first home in the tough Charlotte market. As new homeowners, there was a lot we did not know, and she was not only helpful, but incredibly educational in her approach. Ultimately, we ended up closing below asking and with seller credits, all in a seller's market! We would definitely work with Amy again.
“Amy and Vic are amazing and helped us in all facets of our move from Indiana to NC. They really seemed to care about the needs of our family and definitely helped us find a great home.

“In a very bold move during the beginning of COVID-19, we put our house up for sale with Amy and Vic Petrenko. Much to our surprise and to the excellent marketing abilities of the Petrenkos' we had an offer within 5 days. Without their expert knowledge and the kindness they afforded us in this trying time, we would not be settled in our new home that they also helped us procure at The Watermark Lake Norman.
“Amy was wonderful to work with during our buying process. She was responsive and patient. We moved from out of town and she was available to view the home when we were not in town. Amy has also been a great resource to us in our new area.

“After almost 40 years of service my wife and I chose Charlotte, NC as our new home. Amy expertly guided us through a very tumultuous market. She spent time truly understanding what we wanted.

I was amazed at how hard she worked to ensure that we didn't settle.
