Contact & Corrections
One email address, no forms to fight, and a genuine interest in being told when we have something wrong.
Discover Elizabeth is an independent editorial guide, not a brokerage front desk or a neighborhood association. That shapes what we can usefully help with. Anything about the guide itself — a fact, a source, a page that should exist — comes straight to us. Anything requiring someone to stand in your house belongs with a licensed professional.
Email the editors
Write to npeters@yourleaderinluxury.com. This is the only channel we monitor for editorial matters. We do not publish a phone number or a walk-in address, because the guide is maintained by a small team rather than staffed as an office, and email keeps a written record of what was asked and answered.
Good reasons to write
- A factual correction — a date, a boundary, a name, a figure, a broken link.
- A page we should add, or a question the guide fails to answer.
- A primary source we appear to have missed.
- A permission or citation request for material on the site.
- An accessibility problem with the site itself.
- A privacy request under applicable law.
Submitting a correction
Corrections are the most valuable mail we get. To make one easy to act on, include the page URL, quote the specific line at issue, say what it should read instead, and point to a source we can verify — a Mecklenburg County POLARIS record, a Historic District Commission document, a city ordinance section, a school district lookup result.
Where a correction is material, we change the page rather than adjust it silently, and the page's review date is updated so returning readers know something moved. Where a disagreement is a matter of characterization rather than fact, we will often add nuance or a hedge instead of flipping the claim — and we will tell you that is what we did.
Every editorial page also carries a correction form at the bottom, which reaches the same place. Use whichever is easier.
What we cannot do by email
- Value a specific property, or tell you what to offer. That needs current comparables and, ideally, eyes on the house.
- Approve, predict, or expedite a Certificate of Appropriateness or a building permit. Those decisions rest with the reviewing bodies.
- Give legal, tax, engineering, structural, or appraisal advice. Each requires a licensed professional who takes responsibility for the opinion.
- Share private information about residents, owners, or transactions.

Questions & Answers
Frequently asked questions
Direct answers to what readers most often ask about this section of the guide. Each answer cites the primary source it rests on.
All Elizabeth questions →How do I reach the editors of this guide?
Email npeters@yourleaderinluxury.com. That address reaches the people who maintain the guide, and it is the right route for corrections, additions, source questions, and permission requests.

What should I include in a correction?
The page URL, the sentence or figure you believe is wrong, what it should say, and — most usefully — a primary source we can check, such as a county record, a city ordinance, or a commission document. Corrections with a source attached are resolved much faster.
Can you tell me what my house is worth?
Not by email, and no page on this site can either. Value in Elizabeth turns on condition, systems, lot width, and review constraints that require someone to see the property. A licensed agent can prepare current comparables, and a licensed appraiser can give you a defensible number.
Will you list my restaurant, shop, or service on the site?
We do not sell placement, so there is no way to buy a listing. If a business is genuinely part of daily life in Elizabeth and we have missed it, send it along and we will consider it on editorial merit when the relevant page is next reviewed.

Do you answer historic district or permitting questions?
We can point you to the right body and explain how the process generally works, but we are not the deciding authority and cannot approve or predict an outcome. Project-specific questions belong with the Charlotte Historic District Commission and city permitting staff, who review your actual drawings.

How quickly will I hear back?
This is a small editorial operation, so response times vary and we cannot promise a specific turnaround. Corrections that cite a source and professional inquiries routed to the firms below tend to move fastest.
