Steve Zink was raised in a ‘Real Estate family’ in Baltimore, Maryland. His Aunt, Uncle, and Mother are all Realtors. Steve has worked as an IT for the Military and the Government for close to 10 years after he graduated from High School, but that was not his calling. He decided to follow his passion for real estate and moved to the Lake Norman area of North Carolina. Adrenalized by the warmer weather, water, and southern charm, Lake Norman was a natural fit. Steve has been mentored and inspired by his Mother Kim Garrett, Owner and Broker in charge at Kim Garrett Realty, Inc. She has worked in every aspect of the Real Estate Industry representing sellers, buyers, and investors for more 18 years. Steve is eager to share his knowledge, experience, and expertise on all aspects of the Real Estate Industry and the Lake Norman area!
