Born and raised in San Diego, Maria Korniyenko now proudly serves clients throughout the Charlotte area, with a focus on Mecklenburg County and Mint Hill. She is known for her thoughtful approach, strong communication, and commitment to creating a smooth and successful experience for every client she represents.
Maria chose to partner with The Agency Charlotte because of its reputation for excellence, innovation, and elevated client service. Those values reflect the way she approaches her own business-through personalized guidance, close attention to detail, and a results-driven mindset centered around her clients' goals.
She specializes in luxury homes priced at $1M+ and brings added value through her close partnership with a custom luxury home builder. This gives her clients unique insight into new construction, home quality, and design potential, along with access to opportunities that may not always be publicly available. Whether helping clients purchase an existing home or explore building something entirely custom, Maria offers a strategic and highly informed perspective throughout the process.
Real estate has been a lifelong passion for Maria. Growing up around the industry and construction world gave her an early appreciation for the impact that trusted guidance can have during major life decisions. Today, she combines that foundation with confident decision-making, market awareness, and a genuine desire to help others feel informed and empowered every step of the way.
Outside of real estate, Maria values an active and community-centered lifestyle. A former competitive swimmer who competed in the Junior Olympics, she now enjoys running and is currently training for her second half marathon and an upcoming triathlon. She also enjoys spending time with family, playing pickleball and spikeball, and serving through her church and youth programs.
Whether assisting a first-time buyer, representing a luxury client, or helping someone bring a dream home to life, Maria is dedicated to delivering an exceptional experience built on trust, professionalism, and care.
