Catherine Orr
Associate Agent, REALTOR®
My love for South Carolina, hot summers, and southern hospitality can be traced back to my childhood in Myrtle Beach. Growing up, I loved spending my summers at the beach and filling my school years with performing arts. When I came to Columbia in 2012 to attend the University of South Carolina, I had no idea that I could love this city even more than the one I knew for 18 years! 

Columbia is where I met my husband (in Williams-Brice Stadium), started our family, built lifelong relationships, and found the church that has been so instrumental in growing my faith. Married in 2017, my husband and I immersed ourselves in Columbia in a new way. As the city has grown, we are continually proud to be a part of the fun and vibrant culture Columbia offers.

After graduating in 2016 with a degree in Business Administration, I went directly into full-time ministry with Campus Outreach, a college Christian ministry. For 3.5 years, I had the amazing opportunity of mentoring college students at USC from all over the US. 

In light of my degree and my design, I always knew, in the long-term, I wanted to be working closely with people. After we purchased our own home in 2017 as clients of The ART Team, I was convinced a career in real estate with this exceptional boutique brokerage would be a great fit. Since 2020, I’ve had the incredibly rewarding experience of helping clients transition from one season to the next. Whether it's discovering your next home, parting with a house full of memories, or cashing out on an investment property—buying or selling real estate is never just a transaction. I understand these are often weighty moments, and every client deserves an agent who sees that. 

Valuing forward thinking strategies, an attention to detail, and relationships over everything, I aim to make your experience as stress-free and enjoyable (dare I say “fun”?) as possible.
