As a daughter in a military family Debbie moved multiple times during childhood from Kansas, to Georgia and Hawaii before her family returned to its roots in the Raleigh, North Carolina area. She attended East Carolina University and completed her BSBA in Marketing. After graduating, Debbie wanted to travel and took a position with Piedmont Airlines as a Flight Attendant. She’s lived in several different locations since then including Baltimore, Maryland; Tampa, Florida; Westchester, Pennsylvania; before making Charlotte her permanent home in 1999.
After working as a flight attendant for several years Debbie, decided to retire her wings and be in the home full-time while raising a young family. She volunteered in her daughter’s schools and for their theaters, dance studios, soccer teams and scout troops. Her other volunteer work was for various local charities including the Pink Ribbon Campaign and Friendship Trays. Once her children were in school she went back to work outside of the home and has held several positions with various Charlotte companies. First as a client liaison and schedule coordinator for St. John Photography, a marketing rep for Beverly’s Gourmet Foods, and finally as the client liaison for ComforCare Home Care. In those positions she was responsible for scheduling, marketing and branding, business development, networking events and philanthropic efforts in the local community.
Debbie’s well-rounded background made transitioning into real estate an easy decision and has never looked back! She has enjoyed engaging in her hometown of Charlotte for the past 23 years and has lived in Southpark, Ballantyne and Matthews. She also has connections and former clients from Mooresville to Waxhaw. She truly loves connecting with people and is passionate about helping her clients to the best of her ability. She is a great listener and her attention to detail, and servant’s heart is a perfect combination for being a Broker/Realtor®.

Debbie Ward (Realtor) is one of the most charming and genuine persons we have met. Her knowledge of the real estate business, market and laws is remarkable and was a great benefit to us as we were in the process of downsizing. At no time during the long 2 year process did we feel pressured to sell or buy – and we eventually did both with confidence, guided by Debbie’s advice and patience. The marketing tools, particularly the sales brochure that she designed elegantly showcased our “old” home; she skillfully handled negotiations on our “new” home and we experienced great satisfaction with both selling and buying. Debbie understands her customer’s expectations and works hard to meet and exceed their needs.
Adela CMy wife and I chose to work with Debbie on selling our existing home and then buying our present home. Her knowledge of the local Charlotte market is truly remarkable and she is very detailed when it comes to the real estate process.
In addition, Debbie knows and works with reputable contractors, inspectors, and appraisers that know what they are doing. It was nice to know that we would always get prompt follow up from Debbie. What stood out though is that she would listen carefully to what we wanted and then deliver. We ended up buying in an area that we didn't even know about and it met all of our expectations and we love it!
Don RDuring the pandemic it was very hard to find the right house, the right agent or even the right time to tour a home. Debbie made everything easy and she was the best of the best at handling everything. She knew exactly what I was looking for. She found the perfect house for me and my kids from the schools, to the neighborhood and even the type of home. She made the whole process seamless from the offer to inspections to closing. She delivered exactly what I was looking for in a home! Thank you Debbie for all your hard work!
Wayel AWe have bought and sold seven houses throughout our lives and hands down, our experience working with Debbie Ward was the very best. She was warm, thoughtful, experienced, knowledgeable, responsive, and all around delightful. She gave us great advice, and went the extra mile to see our sale through to a successful closing. Not only that, when it came time to buy our new home, she came through with a terrific realtor referral for us – and we had another positive experience – all thanks to Debbie. We couldn’t have been more pleased with our experience and would recommend her to anyone seeking to buy or sell a home.
Mary-Iris and Paul TThank you, Debbie Ward! With all the challenges of selling an older home, you were there every step of the way for guidance and support. What stood out the most was the passion you have for the process, and the compassion you showed to all involved. My family is grateful for the extra mile you went all the way to closing. Caring is priceless and rare these days in the service industry. You, and Corcoran HM Properties will always be remembered, and recommended for that!
