When Dennis and Mayra decided to move from Florida to North Carolina, they had a clear goal: find a new construction home within about a 30-minute commute to work. The challenge was coordinating that purchase while their Florida home still needed to sell.
They turned to Hasty Millen, VP of Corporate Relocation at Stone Realty Group, for help navigating the move. From their first conversation, Hasty focused on understanding not only the type of home they wanted, but how location, commute and day-to-day lifestyle needed to fit together.
“She listened carefully to what kind of home we were looking for and nailed it.”

Coordinating an Out-of-State Sale and North Carolina Purchase
Moving to Mooresville, NC required more than simply finding the right house. Dennis and Mayra needed their Florida home to sell before they could complete their purchase in North Carolina, creating a timing challenge common for relocating homeowners.
Hasty helped coordinate the moving pieces by staying in communication with their Florida real estate agent, keeping builders informed and helping Dennis and Mayra understand their options as the sale progressed.
That coordination helped them continue evaluating homes without losing sight of the contingency and timing requirements tied to their Florida property.
Finding the Right New Construction Home in Mooresville, NC
Once the timing came together, Dennis and Mayra were able to move forward with a new construction home in Mooresville that matched the priorities they had established at the beginning of the search.
Located in the Lake Norman area north of Charlotte, Mooresville offers buyers a range of established neighborhoods and newer communities. Buyers considering the area can explore Stone Realty Group’s Mooresville, NC real estate and area guide for current listings and local information.
For Dennis and Mayra, the decision ultimately came down to finding a home that worked for their commute and the way they wanted to live after relocating to North Carolina.
A Relocation Built Around Communication
Throughout the process, Dennis and Mayra valued Hasty’s responsiveness, honesty and willingness to keep the different parties involved in their relocation connected.
“She is an honest and dedicated professional. We would work with her again when the opportunity arises.”

Their experience shows why relocation planning often involves more than identifying available homes. When an existing property sale, builder timeline and work commute all affect the purchase, clear communication can help buyers make decisions with greater confidence.
