Hi, I'm Heather!

Heather Sullivan is a trusted full-time Realtor® with Lantern Realty & Development LLC, proudly serving Lake Tillery, Albemarle, Stanly County, Cabarrus County, and surrounding North Carolina communities.

Her passion for helping people has made her a trusted name among buyers and sellers throughout the region.


She believes that real estate is more than transactions — it’s about helping people through major life transitions with professionalism and genuine compassion.

When she isn’t helping clients move toward their goals, Heather enjoys exploring local coffee shops and art galleries, spending time with her eight grandchildren, and supporting the vibrant communities she serves.
