"We were looking to downsize and what we were interested in was beachfront property. As I started my search, Carolyn Smith's name came up and I started conversing with her. She started sending me properties for sale. After seeing a few, I realized beachfront living was not for me. Carolyn then offered up the option of riverfront property. Now, I never thought about living on the Indian River. So I agreed to looking at some river from property. After we completed touring the first condo unit Carolyn suggested, she ask what we thought about it. My first sentence was I'll take it. If it wasn't for Carolyn, we wouldn't not have found our dream home. There isn't a day the goes by that either my wife or I says we can't believe we own this condo. Carolyn then took over and set up the deal with the condo developer. She convinced them to agree to a time frame that she planned out since we were in the process of selling our home. She handled all communication between developer and us, as well as all closing issues professionally and swiftly. Enough can't be said of Carolyn's behind the scene support person named Jen. With both of them tag teaming on all issues that arose, we wouldn't have closed in the timely manner as we did. If we have any real estate needs in the future, Carolyn and Jen would be the only team we would we call.

"My husband and I found Carolyn through a happy accident, and we are so grateful we did. Carolyn is professional, responsive, knowledgeable, and friendly. After previously working with a few unimpressive agents, we luckily met Carolyn, and it was clear right away she is a great agent. We were difficult clients as we were out of town buyers on a set budget looking for something very specific during a very hot real estate market. We needed to move swiftly on houses, and Carolyn was quick to video-tour houses for us to make sure we could get in our offers quickly. She was also good to point out potential areas of concern that we might have missed. One of the best things about working with Carolyn is you know that she will never leave you hanging - she is incredibly quick to respond to texts, calls, and emails. I truly believe we got our house because of Carolyn’s speed which allowed us to get our offer in quickly. Carolyn and Jen handled all of the details of our deal from start to finish. They are both very knowledgeable about real estate and all aspects of the transaction. They put us in touch with inspectors, insurance agents, contractors, roofers, etc. so that we could get everything taken care of within our tight timeframe. They are also just friendly and thoughtful people. I would highly recommend working with Carolyn and her team.

"Attention to Detail! Some real estate agents are going through the motions so to speak while others stand out as true professionals. Carolyn Smith is well versed in her field and is a "seasoned pro." Her many years in the business has provided Carolyn the experience that a client needs to face the potential challenges that might arise when transacting real estate. She has basically "seen it all" and can deal with any circumstance. She has a friendly but all business personalty that is perfect for the profession. She had completed 4 very successful transactions for me and my wife over the last 9 years. I would recommend her services without reservation.." - Jonathan Lubitz & Joan McNeela

"Carolyn was impressive in multiple ways: One learns quickly that her ethics and her professional demeanor is front and center; yet that did not diminish her creativity and her ability to find solutions that would lead to a deal. Her accessibility and responsiveness were always accompanied by a warm interaction, often with a broad smile. More evidence, we think, of experience and confidence. Loved her!."- Gary and Susan Luderitz

"We have worked with many real estate agents over the years and Carolyn Smith was the best. She will find the perfect home for you and your family. We were very picky about what we wanted but she was patient and didn't push us to buy. She also sold my daughter their home.
She and her staff are truly the most professional around Brevard. We highly recommend Carolyn." - Sonya

"My husband and I worked with Carolyn Smith to build/purchase our first new home. The process was nothing less than excellent. Carolyn was responsive, knowledgeable, and professional from the start. She was with us every step of the way to guide us through the home buying process, provide recommendations on design, and ensure that all of our questions/concerns were addressed in a timely manner. I could not have asked for a better home buying experience and would recommend Carolyn and Bridget to anyone looking to buy or sell their home." - Melcher
