Sales Manager | Broker | Walnut Cove Realty I’m the Sales Manager at Walnut Cove Realty and an active broker serving Asheville and Western North Carolina. Walnut Cove Realty is the region’s #1 luxury boutique brokerage, and my experience includes luxury homes, legacy properties, and real estate investments across the market. I moved to Asheville nine years ago as the General Manager of The Cliffs at Walnut Cove, which gave me a deep understanding of luxury communities, land, and what truly drives long-term value. Today, I work with investors, second-home buyers, and full-time residents, bringing a practical, straightforward perspective to every transaction. I stay closely connected to market trends while remaining directly involved in deals, allowing me to offer clear guidance without the noise. Outside of real estate, I’m married to a Mission Hospital nurse and am a proud dad to two middle-school daughters. Asheville isn’t just where I work—it’s home.

Celeste Salzberg had such a great experience purchasing her first home in 1998, that in 2002, after leaving active duty in the Army, she followed in the steps of her realtor by becoming a realtor. Salzberg says, "I feel a connection with people everyday. I help them buy and sell their most precious asset- home." Since Salzberg began in 2002, she has worked in several different markets, including the Washington, DC metro area and San Juan, Puerto Rico. From these multifaceted experiences, she brings a wealth of knowledge to the negotiating table. She is a multi-million dollar producer and has consistently been awarded membership into her companies' Executive Club.When asked what drives her, she says, "The look on her clients' faces when she has made a dream into a reality."
