I was referred to Micah by a family member, and I’m really glad I went with him. As a first time homebuyer, I didn’t know what to expect, but he made the whole process feel easy. About a week after we connected, I saw a house pop up and reached out. That same day it hit the market, we were already getting started. That set the tone right away. He stayed on top of everything and kept me updated the entire time. He would text and call with good news every step of the way, which made the experience even more exciting. I never felt out of the loop. What stood out most was how genuinely excited he was for us. He’s very personable, easy to talk to, and never pressured anything. He just wants you to make the best decisions. Everything went smoothly, and I’d 100% recommend Micah to anyone looking to buy a home!

About Micah Watkins
Hi, I’m Micah Watkins — a Realtor with eXp Realty Land & Ranch serving the greater Lake Norman area, and I’ve proudly called Catawba home for the past 13 years.
Before stepping into real estate in October 2025, I spent years in the fast-paced world of corporate finance. My days were filled with analysis, negotiations, and big decisions — all skills that now help me guide clients with confidence through buying or selling a home, land, or countryside property. But somewhere along the way, I realized what really drives me isn’t just numbers or strategy — it’s people.
Having lived in this area for over a decade, I’ve watched Lake Norman and the surrounding communities grow and change, and I understand what makes this region so special.
From homes near the water to acreage, land, ranch-style properties, and peaceful country retreats, I love helping buyers find places that offer more than just a property — they offer a lifestyle, room to breathe, and a place to build the life they’ve been dreaming of.
Real estate moves fast here, but that’s part of what I love — no two days, clients, or properties are ever the same. Whether it’s a first-time buyer feeling that spark when they walk into “the one,” a family ready for their next chapter, or someone searching for land with space to grow, I’m honored to be part of those moments.
For sellers, I believe every property has a story worth telling. My goal is to highlight the features, setting, and lifestyle that make your home or land stand out so it connects with the right buyers in a meaningful way.
If you’re thinking about making a move, buying land, or finding a place that finally feels like home, I’d love to help guide you there.
