Testimonials

"Kim is personable, professional, courteous, and knowledgeable about her craft. I got the sense that she truly cared about helping me sell our property. Selling is always stressful, but she handled everything smoothly from start to finish. I was able to let go of the process, trusting that she knew what she was doing. Nothing seemed to phase her and she was great about addressing every question, concern, or idea I had without being pushy or condescending. Great to work with and she got the job done!" - Tere

"Kim was a blessing! She is very knowledgeable and personable! I closed on my first home yesterday and Kim was by my side since day 1. I looked at SO many homes and was beginning to wonder if I would ever find the "perfect" home for me, but then I did! Throughout the entire process, Kim was patient, motivated, and considered my must-haves with every property that she showed me. She made sure that everything negotiated was actually completed before closing and was always on my side. She went above and beyond and that's what makes an excellent realtor!" - escamp

"Kim is a consummate professional. I could not be more personally and professionally pleased with how she navigated the sell of our lake home. We were so pleased, we turned to her immediately to help us find and purchase our next home. She is creative and kind, professional and intentional. Kim brainstorms new ideas to assist with the circumstances of your real estate and life needs. While being current and contemporary in her approach, Kim Smith is a wonderful reminder of the long standing traditions of honor in a profession. You, your family, and your property will be well represented by working with Ms. Kimberly Smith!" - Stef

"Kim Smith has been and continues to be an amazing agent! She has gone above and beyond in every aspect of buyming a house. I always have a ton of questions when making any purchase much less a house! She was so helpful and worked really hard to get us the best deal and take care of any issues. Even after closing she keeps helping us. She even threw us a house warming party! My wife and I couldn’t be more happy with Kim and we will recommend her for years to come. Cans say enough good things about Kim!" - dbward
