Having grown up in the small village of Kinvara, in the western part of Ireland, Clare Fader knows what it’s like to feel so warmly attached to the place you’ve called home.
As she still considers that her “other” home, with so many family members still in Ireland, that love of what “home” really means has carried over into her successful career as owner of Fader Real Estate in Winston-Salem, NC.
“It’s been nearly 20 years since I first got my real estate license,” she shares. “Before that, I was a singer and songwriter with a band and also a waitress – two things I learned so much from that I have been able to apply to real estate.”
Her Fader Real Estate team covers mostly Winston-Salem and the surrounding areas, but also includes agents who focus on Greensboro, High Point and even Charlotte.
Clare is deeply inspired to guide families in finding their perfect home.
“I love matchmaking!” she explains. “Not romantic matchmaking, but community matchmaking. We love listening to our clients and helping them determine where they’re going to feel most at home in the area.”
Fader Real Estate also owns the area’s largest digital marketing platform @BestofWinston, shining a light on all the things they love most about the Winston-Salem community. Clare says it’s a personal goal to use her small business to improve the local community overall.
“We are heavily invested in our city,” she adds. “This innovative platform also gives our listings incredible exposure, in comparison to traditional real estate companies. It’s designed to showcase not just the home, but the lifestyle that comes with it, as well.”
That includes listings in a wide variety of neighborhood styles – one of the beautiful things about Winston-Salem.
“We have some amazing options, from small cottages in West Salem to grand mansions in Buena Vista, and everything in between. There is also still value to be had, in comparison to the historic neighborhoods in other North Carolina cities,” Clare explains.
She’s also especially fond of passing along some of her own favorite spots for antique shopping and thrifting around town, including the Snob Shop and Collage, both located in the historic West End neighborhood. That’s all part of sharing the lifestyle that sets each neighborhood apart!
Clare has built Fader Real Estate on trust, transparency and long term thinking. Whether you’re ready to move instantly or simply exploring options for the future, Clare and her team will offer you thoughtful, client-first guidance every step of the way.
“We’re deeply rooted in the community and passionate about supporting the people and places that make the Triad special!” she adds.
“If you are considering buying a house in Winston-Salem, Clare is the agent to engage. She is super knowledgeable about the city and its architecture. Clare immediately ‘got’ what I was looking for in a house and was able to match me to a beautiful old West End house while I was on a trip from my previous home city of Austin, TX. She was totally professional and responsive during the negotiations and, thanks to her expertise, everything went through seamlessly. She has been beyond valuable with sharing names of contractors and giving advice since moving to this beautiful city. She has also been extremely helpful in my purchase of two additional houses in West Salem. I would not think of asking anyone other than Clare to assist me with any future house sale or purchase negotiations.” ~ Tricia T.
“Clare was extremely helpful throughout our home buying process. My partner and I are new to Winston-Salem, and Clare showed us so many great neighborhoods to choose from, and helped us buy in the perfect Washington Park location. She was not only helpful in finding us just the right house but also in making Winston-Salem feel like home to us by welcoming us here.” ~ Charles T.
