Nolan Formalarie, Broker-in-charge

(910) 477-0085 – Email Nolan

Hello, my name is Nolan Formalarie and I moved from the cold Northeast in 2004 to be by the beach, sun and enjoy a relaxed lifestyle! Growing up in Western MA was wonderful but as an avid outdoor person who needs the sun I decided to take a trip to Southport/Wilmington and immediately fell in love with the area.

I used to be an avid day hiker and mountain biker but because this area is flat I quickly adapted and now kayak, walk and run along the seashore. The kayaking in Brunswick County is amazing; you can experience all kinds of wildlife in the Lockwood Folly River, if you like sea kayaking the Marsh Savannahs that lead to the Atlantic might be for you.

Our beaches are calm, serene and full of white sand. Down in Brunswick County they all face south making them an excellent place to take a walk around Sunset. I make sure to get out there at least once a week with my wife, 2 boys and our dog Bradley to walk. It’s a stress release, as well as therapeutic.

As for being a real estate broker I genuinely love what I do. I don’t sell homes or land I simply provide the best customer service I can to my clients. I pride myself on the relationships I form before, during and after a transaction. My work ethic and dedication is unparalleled and if I can help you out in any way please let me know.

Meet Sherry

Sherry Inman

I decided to go in to real estate because helping others has always been one of my greatest passions. Whether helping you find the home of your dreams or selling your current home, you can be confident that I will be there to take care of every aspect of the transaction. My attention to detail and organization skills allow for a smooth transaction. I treat my clients like family and keep in touch with them on a regular basis before, during, and after closing. I value the relationships I have built during my real estate career.

I’ve spent almost my whole life in the area and absolutely love it. I enjoy the beaches, the warm sunny weather, and the wonderful people who live here. In my spare time, I enjoy volunteering at church, going on mission trips to Nicaragua, reading, and vacationing with my family. My husband David and I have been married for over 20 years and we have one son, Aaron. We also have 3 rescue dogs which we love and spoil, Sophie, Rocky, and Buddy, the 140 lb. newest addition to the family.

Meet Shannon

Shannon

Born and raised on the eastern coast of NC, I grew up spending my summers on the Brunswick County beaches meeting tourists from all over. After graduating college with a Radiation Technology degree, I furthered my education graduating from the ECU Radiation Oncology program. I practiced Radiation Therapy at UNC-Chapel Hill and Duke Oncology Centers treating cancer patients. When 9/11 happened, I felt life was too short not to live fully and decided to travel the US doing temporary therapy assignments. In between assignments, I would travel for pleasure, mostly out of the country to Italy, Spain, UK, South America, and more exotic islands than I can name. After an assignment in South Texas ended up being a 6-year permanent position, I felt the Carolinas call this southern gal back home. I retired from the medical profession and settled into the small seaside town of Southport , had beautiful twin girls, and never looked back. As my daughters are of school age, I gained a Marketing Specialist position with Discover NC Homes. Though working for a real estate company may seem polar opposite to the medical field , both require building and earning a trusting relationship with people. We do that here at Discover NC Homes and I am proud to work with such an incredible team!
