Mark Morris
Experience
Marks career in commercial real estate spans 40+ years starting as an internal auditor for a national bank to ownership of a regional appraisal firm, capital advisor for an east coast firm and currently full-service commercial brokerage in all property types.
His career launched in 1979 with Wachovia Bank (aka Wells Fargo) as an internal auditor performing all aspects of retail and corporate operational and credit reviews, investigations, and merger functions in NC. In 1982, he transitioned to credit review functions that included packaging and approval authority for service branches in WNC before leaving Wachovia in 1984 to form a regional appraisal company.
For 30+ years, his appraisal firm performed thousands of service assignments for high net worth individuals and commercial clients involving land development projects, value impact studies (rezoning and CU permitting), utility and highway condemnations, feasibility, litigation expert testimony and special asset disposition valuations for federal and state agencies.
Mark joined Sunbelt Capital Advisors in 2009 providing consulting and advisory services for Corporate, Government and Hospitality clientele in the NC market as aid to the structuring and placement of private debt and equity.
In 2016, he associated with NAI Beverly Hanks in Asheville with focus on retail, office, industrial and hospitality real estate. His business skills, multi-faceted background and market knowledge provide unique perspective to clients seeking to sell, purchase, or lease commercial real estate. Whether user, investor, or institutional client, Morris seeks value-add opportunities for buyers and sellers through assemblage, adaptive reuse, finance, and creative restructuring.
Mark graduated from Western Carolina University in 1978 earning his BSBA as a finance major. He holds the CCIM designation from the CCIM Institute, an SRA designation from the Appraisal Institute, an NC General Certified appraiser in NC and active NC broker’s license.
He has been an active NC broker since 1978 and resides in Asheville, NC.

Ask An Expert
Is there a best time of the year to buy a house?
When it comes to buying a home, there are pros and cons for each season. Generally, the best season to buy a home is in late summer or fall. There are still plenty of homes for sale, but without the intense competition found during spring. Sellers are also known for being a bit more flexible this time of the year. Zillow reports that the highest number of listings with at least one price reduction are found August–September. However, the deeper buyers venture into fall, the less choice is available. If you value choice, and you want more buyers competing for the home you are leaving, spring could be your best season. Ultimately, the best time to buy a home is when you’re financially ready to do so.
