Charlotte has always been Marty’s home. One of the few people you’ll meet who is actually from here, Marty Briggs is known for his calm demeanor and team-oriented approach. In his past career he worked in the racing industry with many successful teams as a car builder, painter, and pit crew member at times, department manager, and then moved into branding and marketing. While it was a great career for 20+ years, he knew he wanted to do something for himself and go in a new direction. To him it felt like a solid move to use his experience in brand marketing, and passion for design, to bring something new to the table. Marty transitioned from the world of NASCAR into the world of real estate and immediately found a niche working with investors. Starting out in the business as a buyer’s agent for a large property management company that was looking to purchase X number of properties per month, it gave him a solid foundation of understanding an investor’s mindset and taught him to run numbers and really analyze properties properly. Marty eventually transitioned to a management role within a large brokerage, and almost immediately realized the need and desire to work for himself in an even more entrepreneurial way.
Marty oversees Cottage Rental Collection, and works directly with all owners and tenants within the rental portfolio. He also works with new and existing investors to analyze and determine new investment opportunities to bring into the mix locally. For all refresh projects properties, in collaboration along with The Tailored Cottage, Marty project manages and seamlessly works in tandem with the amazing tradespeople who help bring the visions to life.
When there’s a chance to relax for a few days, Marty looks forward to a visit to Savannah spending time on Tybee Island with Amy and their dogs. Nothing beats the low-key quiet time looking out at the marsh views, roasting oysters, and grilling local fresh caught seafood.
