2008 Charlotte Power Players

Shane McDevitt, realtor and owner of The McDevitt Agency, was featured as a 2008 Power Player by The Mecklenburg Times and was featured in a bio and article on Page 2 of the newspaper.

In March, The McDevitt Agency also put up a 7ft x 18ft indoor billboard in the walkway connecting the Overstreet Mall and the EpiCentre Entretainment Complex.

W Hotel - Atlanta

Pics above are from the W Hotel in Atlanta. We stayed there while in Atlanta to take a course to be certified as a Luxury Home Marketing Specialist (www.CLHMS.org) and become a member of The Institute For Luxury Home Marketing. The hotel had great rooms, a great lobby and bar, and a great pool with poolside cabanas and dining. Also, be sure to visit the Luxury Division of The McDevitt Agency if you need assistance in buying or selling luxury property in the Uptown Charlotte area.
