Dora is awesome. She works hard to sell or buy. She is wonderful. We have used her two time and she is great. If you want to sell or buy call Dora.

Dora not only was extremely helpful when I purchased property but when I decided to sell she stayed committed to helping with the sale even though people kept changing their minds. When the right person came along she helped to make the selling process seamless and I can't thank her enough for all her help. John Faison

A friend recommended that I look for a realtor from a list by Dave Ramsey that is verified by his real estate business . I did just that because I’ve always trusted Ramsey and his financial programs over the years.
I was immediately contacted by Dora Smith from Bracey, Va. I do not live in Virginia but in Atlanta, Ga. She introduced herself and told me a little about her business around the lakes and towns in the area. I had a very difficult property that I needed to sell and she never even hesitated in offering her advice and help from the very beginning to the end with the closing that took place within 5 months . There had been a death of a family member very suddenly a there had been no guidelines set up ahead of time as to how to be handled . Dora worked diligently from the beginning interviewing people that could empty out the house and so many other obstacles that came up along the way . I could never have done it without her professional help and integrity.
I feel like I got to know her even though long distance and felt I’d even made a friend along the way . She was just fantastic and I’ll always be grateful for all of her very hard work that she provided with a wonderful attitude the whole way through!!
Anyone would be very fortunate to make her acquaintance.

Susan Bishop did an excellent job meeting my real estate needs. Very professional and knowledgeable Very friendly. I heartily recommend her to satisfy your real estate needs.

Dora is AMAZING. If it was not for her, my husband and I would not have gotten our dream home! She worked day and night to make sure our first ever home buying process was as smooth as possible! She is extremely personable, kind, easy to talk to, and cares deeply about her clients and their happiness! She is the BEST realtor/agent you could choose/be blessed to work with!:)

Susan has helped us sell multiple properties. She always go above and beyond. She knows the local laws and can put in contact with local professionals for any needed work. I value her advice and knowledge. She is who I will go to for future selling or buying of property.

Dora was very helpful and knowledgeable through the whole process. I am very pleased we chose her to represent us in this transaction and look forward to dealing with her in the future for any other needs in the area.

Dora was absolutely wonderful. She is so friendly and helpful with every aspect of the home buying experience. I really loved she asked a lot of questions on exactly what we wanted so that we didn't waste any time on houses that didn't check all the boxes. We ended up purchasing the second house we looked at and love it.

Sandy is focused on the job at hand. She has a great view of the market and understand what it can and will bring. She understands the sale aspect and the buying aspect of this real estate marker. Choose this lever handed individual to oversee your transactions.

I was glad to have Dora as my agent. She stuck with me till I found what I wanted. I highly recommend her for anyone in the market to buy or sell real estate. Thanks Dora for all your help in my search.

In 6 years of searching Sandy is the only realtor that stayed with us through the process of choosing our retirement home. She’s exceptional , reliable ,friendly and patient .Should we have future real estate needs will be sure to contact Sandy.
Highly recommended!

Dora did a great job of guiding us through what turned out to be a difficult real estate transaction. She worked for us!

dora was great to work with. kept me informed and made buying the property non stressful

We really enjoyed having Sandy assist us in finding our home! She worked with our schedule and gathered a lot of information for us on multiple properties. She really stuck with us to get us into a home, and make the process as smooth as possible. Sandy is a realtor you want to have on your team!

Highly, recommend working with Sandy! We came from out of state, and she met us and spent an entire day with us! We were able to find what we were looking for, and she helped us through the entire process, fantastic transaction start to finish.

Sandy knows the true definition of sales. "Helping people make a good decision for themselves". We were both rather successful insurance agents in Florida. We have owned over 25 homes, 10 together at one time until we retired. We worked with dozens of realtors, extremely experienced, not experienced. everywhere in between, you name it. Sandy has the most natural ability, caring, empathetic and relaxed personality I have ever seen in the business. After going through two personal injuries within a week of each other and helping us trudge through the woods, she never complained of her condition. She always went out of her way to help us, referred professionals diligently, made calls for us, drove all over to help us with our two varying 1031 Exchanges and deadline. She calmed us down after some blunders from the three title companies at closing. All were out of her control. She communicated beautifully with rapid answers, etc. What Sandy lacks in experience she far exceeds with compassion and being there to make the transaction go smoothly. She knows her limits, has an innate ability and gets answers accurately. it was very refreshing to have worked with her. I hope you do. Believe me, Sandy is deserving of your business, truly.

We have used Dora to purchase two homes in the Lake Gaston Estates area and would highly recommended her to anyone looking for a delightful, hard working, incredibly thorough real estate agent who always goes above and beyond.
