Lake Homes Realty, LLC - Alabama

MY PHILOSOPHY IS "CLIENTS FIRST" Life is about building relationships and helping others, and real estate is one way I am able to do that. I'm fortunate to have Logan Martin Lake and Neely Henry Lake to offer my clients, because these beautiful lakes so quickly inspire clients, they are so scenic and serene. I am committed to providing the best service possible, and for me that means always putting my clients first. I make myself available for my clients, listen closely to them so I understand all their needs, and respond quickly with the expertise that only I can give them. I love to take care of my clients. EXPERIENCE MATTERS There are so many qualities that help create a great real estate professional, and they are earned through experience, integrity, market expertise, marketing savvy, an extensive professional network and keen negotiation skills. After more than eight years in the business, I have an exceptional set of skills to offer my clients, including certification as a Buyer's Representative, and I continue to improve on them and acquire more. RECOGNIZED EXCELLENCE I'm proud of the many honors and awards I've received from my peers. I was named St. Clair Realtor of the Year in 2010 AND 2015, and I am a past president of the St. Clair Association of Realtors and will be current President 2022. I've also been the Alabama state winner from the Virginia Allen Young Careerist Program with the Business Professional Women's Club. On the state level, I was part of the Alabama Association of Realtors Leadership Class of 2013, which was one of the most valuable programs I've been fortunate enough to take part in and taught me a great deal about exceptional service. Service is one of the most important things to me, and that means service to my profession as well as my clients. GROUNDED IN THE COMMUNITY Building relationships begins with the community, and it's a pleasure for me to be of service to the community. I work closely with the Business and Professional Women's Club and I have hosted workshops at the state Girl Scouts Leadership Conference. My biggest passion is hunger and I help to sponsor a daily food ministry box here in our town. Living here on the lake for eighteen years now, you just get really close to people. It's a close-knit community. We are a great community to live in and that makes it a very easy sell. It's so close to Birmingham and Atlanta, but we still have a real small-town feel.

I am a FULL TIME ASSOCIATE BROKER affiliated with Lake Homes Realty, selling homes, condos, and property in all three counties of Smith Lake. I have lived on Smith Lake for more than 20 years and have been coming to Smith Lake since 1986. I have intricate knowledge of the entire lake and have expert knowledge about every cove and channel on any part of the lake… either by road or water! I was the top producing agent in Years 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 for our local Board of Realtors. Lake Homes Realty is the largest waterfront brokerage in the United States and we are growing each year. Our sales numbers and waterfront experience are like no other in the Country. We are consistently on the Inc. 5000 list making us one of the fastest growing privately held companies in the Country. For 2025, my sales were in excess of $240,000,000. 2026 is pointing toward another record breaking year! I remain a leader in listing and sales volume for the South East US, the state of Alabama, and the entire Smith Lake area. I work hard, do what I say, and keep in close contact with all of my customers. I stay on top of the ever changing Alabama real estate market from day to day by monitoring the various MLS systems that cover our area and use the latest technologies to get information to my customers quickly. On average, I manage 300-400 Smith Lake properties, so I definitely have something in my inventory for everyone. If I do not have it, I will find it! In 2021, I closed 200+ properties with prices ranging from $5,000 to $16,000,000 totaling over $250,000,000 in sales volume. In 2022, 2023,2024, and 2025 I closed even more property with sales over $900 million. I list and sell any price range on the lake and in any location. I have almost two decades of experience working with first time lake buyers all the way to large corporations. This is why everyone calls me “Mr. Smith Lake”!
