Saluda River Club Expands Team to Meet Demand

Riverfront Community Welcomes New Sales Professionals.

With record sales of over $17 million since the community opened in late fall of 2008, Saluda River Club is growing its team to ensure the very best in customer service. 
The Lexington riverfront community welcomes residential home sales veterans:
Elizabeth Webber Akre and Catherine Wright.

Elizabeth Akre is an accomplished South Carolina real estate professional.  She was named 2008 REALTOR^® of the year by the Central Carolina Association of REALTORS^®.   Akre has served in a variety of leadership positions with the association, and in 2013 will assume the presidency.  Most recently, Akre was part of an award-winning sales team with RE/MAX Real Estate Services in Columbia.  At Saluda River Club, she will support the onsite sales organization.

Catherine Wright has enjoyed a successful real estate career. Her accomplishments include managing a branch office of a large Ohio real estate company and serving as sales and marketing manager for local and national real estate firms.  Wright, licensed since 1970,  is a lifetime member of the Regal Circle of the Sales and Marketing Council of the National Homebuilders Association.

“We are delighted to welcome Elizabeth and Catherine.  Their skills and experience will be a tremendous asset as we respond to an increased demand for information about our community,” says Edmund Monteith, Jr., SRC Senior VP of Sales and Marketing.  “Interest has been especially high since we were honored with the Best of American Living Award for Community Design in January.”

Saluda River Club, a Lifestone Communities development, occupies 235 pristine acres along a mile of the Saluda River.  The River District features traditionally crafted large and estate homes on wooded lots.  The Village District has townhomes, cottages and single-family residences.
