From early on, Chris Kanter knew he wanted to be a builder. As
early as high school, he took jobs in the construction business
and continued during his summers home from Virginia Military
Institute. After college, he found jobs in varying fields related
to construction real estate, construction sales, home renovation
and buying and selling older homes. In 1996, Chris took the plunge
and opened his own construction business, North Shore Construction
Company.

His is a small company, just Chris and his wife, and they walk their
clients through each phase of the construction process to make it a smooth
and enjoyable one. They focus on building only a few homes each year to
maintain personal supervision of the construction, close interaction with
the client and ensure quality craftsmanship.
Chris and his family live in Norfolk. He was born and raised there
and he's delighted at the opportunity to be a part of the East Beach vision.
He jumped at the chance to sign on to the East Beach Guild since he's always
loved to blend the old with the new.
