Your Independent Advisors for Overbrook Estates
We don't work for Toll Brothers. We work for you.
Meet Duane Clarke & Hope Brown
Duane Clarke and Hope Brown are the Heart & Hustle Group at Lifestyle International Realty — independent buyer advisors who specialize in new construction and relocation in the Charlotte metro.
Most buyers who find Overbrook Estates are moving from out of state — from New York, New Jersey, Florida, or California — and they're making a $700,000+ decision in a community they've never lived in. Duane and Hope exist for exactly that buyer. They help you understand what the builder won't tell you — which lots are worth the premium, which Design Studio upgrades add resale value, and when Toll Brothers is most likely to negotiate.
Duane is licensed in both North Carolina and South Carolina — so if you're also exploring communities like Fort Mill or Tega Cay across the border, he can represent you there too without you needing to find a second agent.
They are not affiliated with Toll Brothers. Their loyalty is entirely to you. And the best part? Independent representation costs you nothing extra — it's built into the transaction.
"You don't pay extra to have independent representation — but you do need to register correctly. We'll guide you through every step."
How Independent Representation Works
Three simple steps to buying smarter at Overbrook Estates
Register Correctly With Us
Before you visit the Toll Brothers sales office, register with us as your buyer's agent. This one step protects your right to independent representation at no extra cost to you.
We Guide Your Strategy
Lot selection, timing, upgrade decisions, Design Studio choices, incentive timing — we analyze every variable and give you an independent perspective that the builder's rep can't provide.
You Close With Confidence
From contract to closing, we advocate for your interests, review every document, and make sure you're making the smartest possible investment. You pay nothing extra.
Why It Matters at Overbrook Estates
The Toll Brothers onsite representative at Overbrook Estates is helpful, professional, and knowledgeable — but they represent Toll Brothers, not you. Their job is to sell homes at the best price for the builder.
