Amy Formanek brings her infectious, winning attitude into all she pursues. Her ability to listen and understand the needs of her clients combined with her never-ending energy turn her real estate relationships into relationships for life.
This New Jersey native lived in the North Carolina communities of Chapel Hill and Greensboro before making Wilmington her home. She has extensive experience as a real estate professional in New Jersey and brings that knowledge and dedication to her work on the top-producing Michelle Clark Team at the Wrightsville Beach office with Intracoastal Realty.
Amy and her family chose Landfall as their home and have been full members for more than 10 years. She really wouldn’t live anywhere else! Amy considers Landfall “a camp for adults,” and especially enjoys an early morning game of Pickleball or a round of golf. Amy is Captain of the USTA 55+ team and can become your #1 resource for all Landfall activities. Landfall’s Sports Center offers so many health & fitness classes, and Amy’s personal favorites include Barre, Yoga, Pilates, TRX and the summer Aqua Fitness. Amy’s young grandchild loves visiting Grammy and enjoying the pool, playground and nearby beaches, and she eagerly anticipates the birth of her second grandchild.
Amy’s sheepadoodle Hadley loves evenings playing with other pups at the soccer field while Amy visits with friends before Hadley heads home tired and happy, ready for a quiet sleep.
Landfall members have moved from all over the country and the world, and many wonderful friendships have begun inside the gates of this nature-filled, tranquil and scenic community. Landfall is the perfect retirement community, but the desirable lifestyle attracts young families as well.
Amy’s family feels as though they are on vacation every day.
Amy can help you and your friends with a move across town or a move across the world. Contact her with all of your real estate needs, whether buying, selling, investing or relocating. She will be there every step of the way!
Catherine Spry
Broker/Realtor
910-612-7570
License Number: 312660
cspry@intracoastalrealty.com
Catherine is a North Carolina native, born in Chapel Hill and grew up in Raleigh. Since 1996 she has happily resided in Wilmington in Landfall and Wrightsville Beach.
Her three daughters attended Wrightsville Beach Elementary and Cape Fear Academy. Catherine was an active volunteer at both schools as well as FoxTroupe Dance Company, Opera House Theater Company, Landfall Country Club and Dreams Of Wilmington. Presently, in addition to being a realtor, she teaches art, sewing and metalsmithing to children at Dreams of Wilmington and makes handcrafted jewelry from gold and silver.
Catherine developed a keen appreciation for homes and property as a young girl, reading the real estate guide in Saturday’s newspaper growing up and then scouring the old Cape Fear Real Estate guide as an adult every week. Her tasteful eye and skill at curb appeal, gardening and home decor landed her house in the Arboretum Garden tour and a Landfall home tour. She would be a tremendous asset in getting a home ready and appealing for buyers.
Karen Deutsch
919-819-0692
KDeutsch@intracoastalrealty.com
Karen Deutsch has roots in New Hanover County dating back to the early 1900’s when her great-grandfather was the first young man from New Hanover County to enlist in WWI. She is a North Carolina native, a graduate from NC State University with a Pre-Med degree and spent several years working in clinical trials in Research Triangle Park.
Karen and her family love living in Wilmington, and she enjoys “this awesome beautiful town” they call home. She loves Crossfit, playing the piano, and spending days at the beach with her 3 children, Trey, Harrison and Mallory. When she is not in her Wrightsville Beach office or with clients, she spends time watching her oldest son play college baseball, being cruised around on their boat by her Captain son and watching her daughter play soccer. She feels so blessed to live in an amazing community that offers so much for an active or laid back lifestyle.
Karen became interested in real estate when she was staging homes for a local real estate agent. She saw first-hand the satisfaction this agent felt from assisting people buying and selling a home, and she was inspired to begin a new career. She considers the satisfaction more like gratitude because she sees the role more about helping people achieve a dream as well as serving the community.
Karen has always been an active volunteer in her community — from church to PTA to baseball team mom and other arenas, so a career in real estate was a natural fit. Karen’s positive attitude and strong, supportive nature makes fans of the families who work with her to buy or sell a home. She values those relationships and appreciates the rave reviews and referrals from her past clients. Karen feels strongly about maintaining a high level of integrity, market knowledge, and effective communication, especially as she is a member of the top producing Michelle Clark Team at Intracoastal Realty.
Karen would be honored to be a part of your buying or selling journey. Contact her today!
