The Agents

Darlette McCormick

Co-Owner, President and Broker-In-Charge


I am a graduate of Wake Forest University and obtained my real estate broker license in 2006.  I hold the Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR) and Short Sale Foreclosure Resource (SFR) realtor designations.  I am also an Accredited Financial Counselor. With my experience in real estate and financial counseling background, I specialize in assisting first time home buyers. I believe that homeownership is a critical step in building wealth and this drives me to work in the community to provide real estate and financial literacy education. I am a member of the National and North Carolina Association of Realtors, as well as the Association for Financial Counseling and Planning Education (AFCPE). My motto and philosophy for life is " The measure of success at the end of the day is not what you've gained but what you've given away."

Shavonna Herring

Broker/Realtor


Hi, I am Shavonna Herron and I am a native New Yorker, from Long Island. My family and I moved to Raleigh, NC to pursue greener pastures in 2004! My professional career includes working for top Residential Property Management Organizations in the Raleigh-Durham area. I am a two time award winning member of The Millionaire’s Club for Grubb-Ellis. I love to learn while achieving success. My professional accolades include obtaining my North Carolina Broker’s License in 2011. Also, after pursuing my CAM designation in 2008, and subsequently achieving my CAPS designation in 2010,   I am a business savvy and fun person, who like all ladies, enjoys shopping, travelling, encouraging others success and experiencing new adventures. An important aspect of my life is my family -- my husband, my four daughters and son.

My favorite quote which sum up my view of life:

"Quality is more important than quantity. One home run is much better than two doubles." -Steve Jobs
