Founded in 2003 by Lori Ivester Jackson and headquartered in Cornelius, N.C., Ivester Jackson Properties has established itself as North Carolina’s premier luxury real estate brokerage. Through its advisory offices and more than 180 agents and staff members in Asheville, Lake Norman, Charlotte, and Wilmington, the company has consistently ranked at or near the top of the Tar Heel State’s luxury residential property market. In 2021, co-founder Reed Jackson was named to Business North Carolina Magazine’s Power 500 list, headlining the state’s most influential business leaders.

The firm was involved in several record-breaking sales in 2022 and is the fastest-growing luxury brokerage in North Carolina’s coastal market. Ivester Jackson is also the first boutique brokerage to cover the entire expanse of the Tar Heel State. Over the years, the company has placed 15 luxury brokers in the Christie’s International Real Estate Masters Circle. 

The Affiliate of the Year is awarded to one Christie’s International Real Estate broker-owner based on their achievement in luxury sales and service, company growth, drive to succeed in the local and global marketplace, and collaboration with network colleagues and the Christie’s auction house..
