Lori Sankey Sun Realty Salvo

About Me

Hi, I’m Lori Sankey, and I have the privilege of managing Sun Realty’s Salvo office — serving the beautiful tri-villages of Rodanthe, Waves, and Salvo, communities that hold a very special place in my heart.

I moved to Salvo in 2005 and quickly fell in love with its peaceful rhythms, close-knit spirit, and the stunning beauty of the Outer Banks. From the tranquil soundside sunsets to the salty breezes off the Atlantic, the tri-village area isn’t just where I work — it’s where I’ve built lasting friendships, raised a family, and connected deeply with the people and places that make this stretch of island truly unique.

Local Knowledge & Experience

Since beginning my journey with Sun Realty in 2007, I’ve worn many hats — from personal coordinator to property consultant, and now as rental manager since 2017. I’ve had the pleasure of helping homeowners just like you care for and grow the value of their investment properties while preserving the character and charm of these villages that I love so much. Building relationships — with guests, owners, and our dedicated local team — has always been the foundation of my work.

Even though I’ve recently relocated back to Pennsylvania to be near my granddaughters, my heart (and my work!) remain firmly rooted in Rodanthe, Waves, and Salvo. With the support of our exceptional local staff and reliable remote tools, I continue to oversee every detail with the same dedication and personal touch I always have. Your guests and your home will always be in caring, capable hands.

Hatteras Island is a place like no other. Its laid-back pace, dog-friendly beaches, boundless outdoor activities, and strong sense of community create unforgettable vacation experiences — and excellent rental opportunities. As a homeowner here, you are a vital part of that experience, and I’m here to help you make the most of it.

Commitment to Excellence

With over 45 years of Outer Banks vacation rental expertise, Sun Realty offers full-service property management tailored to your goals — from expert housekeeping and maintenance to strategic marketing and guest support.

Whether you're already part of the Sun family or just beginning to explore your home’s rental potential, I’d love to connect. Let’s talk about how we can work together to honor what makes the tri-villages so special while helping your investment thrive.
