Who Is Amy King?

A little about me

THE REAL ESTATE STRATEGIST

Hi there! I’m Amy Reed King, a full-time Real Estate Broker and Investor based in the Research Triangle Park area of North Carolina. Since moving here over 15 years ago, I’ve loved every moment in this vibrant community. For years, I told everyone Durham was the best-kept secret – now, the word is out! Durham, NC – the Bull City, home to DPAC Performing Arts Center, NCCU, and Duke University – is a true gem and one of the best places to call home.

A native of rural Western New York, my passion for real estate started early. I grew up with a hands-on approach, surrounded by family, dogs, chickens, and even guard geese! I proudly hold degrees in English Literature, Mass Communications, and an MBA, and I began my career renovating homes in Rochester, NY, before jumping fully into real estate here in North Carolina.

My journey from corporate America into real estate has shaped the way I do business – blending practical know-how with a dedication to finding clients the perfect home or investment. From listening to your needs to going above and beyond to meet your goals, I’m here to make buying, selling, or investing as smooth and enjoyable as possible.

I’m also passionate about giving back to this wonderful community and support causes like Meals on Wheels of Durham and the Pancreatic Cancer Network. When I’m not working with clients, you can find me watching sci-fi movies, enjoying quality time with my family, or exploring the Caribbean. If you see me around, feel free to say “hi” – I’d love to connect!

A little about me

THE REAL ESTATE STRATEGIST

I am a full-time Real Estate Broker/Investor located in the ResearchTriangle Park area of North Carolina and if you see me out and about, please say “hi”.

I have lived in NC for over 15 years and have loved every minute of it. For years, I told outsiders that Durham was the best kept secret.

Guess what...that secret is out and we have experienced explosive growth.

I think the world now knows what I discovered years ago. Durham, NC...the BullCity...the home of the DPAC Performing Arts Center, the home of NCCU and DukeUniversity is the best place to call HOME!

"An enthusiasm for all thing’s real estate, a commitment to building lifelong relationships, expert negotiation skills and a lifelong passion for the places we call “home” are the hallmarks of Amy King’s real estate career. Born and raised in rural Western New York (Caledonia) on what some city folks would call a farm (giant garden, dogs, chickens and guard geese that would chase you if you entered the yard), she spent the larger part of her childhood feeding chickens and gathering eggs. A proud graduate of an HBCU, Amy holds a B.A. in English Literature and another in Mass Communications. Amy furthered her education with a hard-earned M.B.A.

She began her love affair with houses while renovating homes in Western New York (Rochester) before transitioning into the world of Residential Real Estate Sales in North Carolina.

Relocating to Durham 15 years ago, she has taken the knowledge learned in working in corporate America (IT and Desktop Support) to segue into owning her own real estate brokerage. A current Durham resident, Amy has witnessed the tremendous change and growth that’s transformed the area into one of NC’s most sought-after destinations. Her exceptional knowledge of the real estate market in NC , coupled with her enthusiasm and expertise, makes Amy the unequivocal go-to-person for your real estate needs.

A lover of houses and a tennis enthusiast, her goal is to satisfy her clients in every way, from listening to their needs to going above and beyond to find the right home or get their house sold. Whether you are selling, buying, renting, or investing, she will work tirelessly with you to help you reach your goals.

Amy is an active supporter of charities including Meals on Wheels of Durham (MOW Durham), and The Pancreatic Cancer Network (PanCan), which holds the annual Purple Stride Walk. When not assisting clients, Amy is an avid movie buff and lover of Sci-Fi (never seen a star trek episode that she didn’t love). She enjoys spending quality time with her husband and three kids, amazingly smart grandson, and cruising around the Caribbean visiting her favorite islands of Puerto Rico, Aruba, and Curacao."

My Big WHY

I realize that I have a gift for Real Estate and I want to share that gift with others. I love erasing the "mystery" about the home buying process and guiding my clients step by step until we meet their goals. I believe that every single person should have the option to own their own home.
