Growing up in nearby Wilson, North Carolina, Sharon visited the Crystal Coast often during her youth. "As kids, we didn't know there was another beach! Atlantic Beach and the surrounding Carteret County area still hold the same mystique for me. There is so much beautiful water here. From the ocean to broad sounds, rivers and creeks, there are opportunities for every facet of boating and beachcombing and a quality of life unsurpassed for those drawn to the water." Sharon and her husband of 33+ years, Frank Barnes, moved to the coast in 1986.
After graduating with honors from what is now known as Barton College in Wilson, North Carolina, Sharon went on to teach in the public schools for 6 years and afterwards found her niche in coastal real estate sales. For over 23 years, Sharon has been listing and selling North Carolina coastal properties, and has received many accolades along the way in production and "team player" awards. She has also been listing broker for many large developments and has years of experience with putting together new communities "from the ground up".
Always the diplomat, Sharon's strongest skills come into play in negotiating and finalizing transactions. "The purchase of real property is typically the most important acquisition in our lives. I pride myself in using my experience and knowledge to insure that clients are well-informed every step of the way in this process. Familiarity with the Crystal Coast and an understanding of the unique characteristics of coastal living have been invaluable. Most of my business comes by way of personal referrals from past customers and clients. I treasure those relationships and take very seriously my duties and responsibilities."
Having recently owned her own real estate company, Sharon's affiliation with Realty World First Coast Properties has opened new doors in her real estate career. Years of experience, added to the benefits of association with an internationally known real estate company make Sharon a natural choice for both sellers and buyers in today's complex real estate market.
