Brooke Conner recommends Sandy Carter

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.

Investor

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.

Dora did a fantastic job helping me through the process of buying my first piece of land in Clarksville. She was quick to respond and very helpful with all of my questions. The whole experience was a breeze, I highly recommend her for your real estate needs.

Tiffany Simon recommends Sandy Carter

Sandy was accomodating and considerate while leading my search for a home. Sandy went out of her way to drive outside of her routine district to view a home with me, which was much appreciated. Sandy is honest and offered her educated opinions on my options; she had my best interest in mind. I would recommend Sandy to anyone purchasing property in Virginia/Northern NC.

I can't thank Dora enough for the smooth way in which she handled the sale of my home. From start to finish she was with me all the way---keeping in touch (almost daily) throughout the process. Her presentation and marketing strategies were top notch. I strongly recommend her for all your real estate needs.

Kip and Joyce Norcross recommend Dora 'the Lake Explorer' Smith

We had unimproved property on Lake Gaston on the border between Virginia and North Carolina. She did research on comparable properties and helped us set a good price for our site. She made flyers to help advertise our property. She was successful in selling our property where previous realtors had not.

Adria Dunbar recommends Dora 'the Lake Explorer' Smith

Dora was amazing in helping our family get to the lake! We initially met Dora on a rainy Sunday when we visited Lake Gaston for the very first time. Not only did she show us a listed home, but she taught us a lot about the Lake Gaston community. She listened to our goals and ultimately helped us secure a property that gets us to the lake sooner than later! I cannot say enough good things about Dora and her professional expertise!

She was the greatest and would highly recommend to anyone buy or selling a home, a true professional. Both my wife and myself were very pleased with the personal contact and updates as the process went forward.

Cathy Willis recommends Dora 'the Lake Explorer' Smith

Dora is a professional Realtor with a warm and caring personality . She is very hard working, responsive and goes the extra Mile to make her customer happy. Dora found my perfect next home to retire to and it wasn’t on the market! She spoke with the owner who was contemplating to sell and well, she made it happen. I’m so impressed that I will retain Dora to sell my current home.
Dora has been such a blessing to work with and I look forward to our on going working relationship and friendship!

Realtor/ Broker NC

Dora was very helpful with our second home/lake home search. I had called several agents, and many were unresponsive or uninterested in helping, Dora was ready to help. I am a licensed agent in NC and purchased a lake home in Virginia. Dora was helpful in explaining the process, which is different than in North Carolina where I work as an agent. She recommended vendors for inspections and service we needed even after the purchasing. She was quick to respond and helpful in negotiating on our behalf. I would highly recommend Dora and would choose her again. I have already recommended her to others. She is very knowledgeable about the lake area and her expertise made for a fun and smooth transaction.

Scott Lambert recommends Dora 'the Lake Explorer' Smith

Dora was completely professional, kind, courteous, prompt, and just a downright nice person and was a pleasure to work with. She kept me up to date on the pricing, marketing and demand as the complete selling process took place. My next property transaction will be done by her again. If she didn’t answer the phone when I called, she phoned back shortly after I left a message. She is great to work with and again, she will be our agent for the next property that we buy or sell.
