Testimonials

"Teresa Smith accepted my listing on a lake property that really wasn’t in marketable condition. I was selling the property as part of an estate and I live in a different state. Teresa was extremely patient and helpful in lining up contractors as required over several months to improve the property and present it in the best possible light possible. I can’t imagine anyone more professional, patient, courteous, and professional than Teresa. When we were able to get an acceptable offer she served as my power of attorney at closing gratis so I wouldn’t have to travel to Gainesville. From start to finish over a number of months Teresa persisted and assisted. I can’t recommend her and her team more highly."

"Put simply, we’ve never before experienced a real estate service level like Michele delivered. We’ve been in our fair share of real estate transactions over our lifetime, but we haven’t enjoyed paying a real estate commission more than we did when Michele led us to the close on our lake life dream. She’s a powerhouse on her own, but she’s not alone. In the tight lakefront Lanier market, her determination and competence shined as she delivered a contract win in a competitive bid. In a short due diligence window she amazed us with the expert relationships she had at the ready to get us the answers we needed to make smart decisions fast. Michelle added tremendous value as our champion, and was worth every dollar of commission (something we haven’t gotten to say in the past). We’re very grateful."

"Teresa and Mackenzie helped us sell our family home on Lake Lanier, a house our parents built and handed down to us. It was very personal and they handled our process with a wonderful combination of grace and professionalism. The house carried a price point lower than most of their listings but I never had the sense that they worked any less on our behalf. From beginning to end, they were proactive, communicative, and responsive; in short, they worked hard! Their specialization (and rootedness) on Lake Lanier is also extremely helpful. We appreciated their counsel on all aspects of the sale. Finally, we had to address questions about the foundation and structural integrity of the house. Teresa brought in trusted contractors she's used before to answer our questions well. Teresa and Mackenzie are really good people, we enjoyed working with them, and we'd hire them again! (And we'd recommend them to family and friends."

Buyer | Seller

"Teresa and her team are absolutely phenomenal and we've now purchased 2 homes, sold one, and referred several friends to these wonderful ladies. They are beyond knowledgeable about Lake Lanier and have a real expertise surrounding lake life and the variables that go well beyond the home purchase itself. So much of lake life is about the water you're on and the location on the lake, and Teresa's team has taught us SO much about about what to look for in the perfect home. Smart, savvy, responsive, professional, and as it turns out, like a part of our family now, too-just wonderful. This is who you want if you're looking for a home anywhere near Lake Lanier."

"Michele was absolutely fantastic in helping us find our weekend getaway lake house. We toured multiple properties and she was very helpful in leading us down the right track when we weren’t even sure what we really wanted. She is crazy knowledgeable and made the buying process as smooth as can be. She has lots of contacts and helped lineup multiple inspections to ensure that what we were buying was of good quality and the value. She truly had our best interest in mind throughout the entire process. There were some difficult decisions to be made and she helped us through all of them. I would definitely recommend Michele to anyone that’s looking to purchase home on Lake Lanier."

"We can not say enough good things about Teresa Smith and her team. Having lived in our home over 30yrs, she went above and beyond to help us prepare our home look it’s best.

She is so easy to work with always listening and accommodating to our needs. We owe her a lot for helping us keep our sanity through what was a very stressful time for us. We highly, highly recommend her!"
