About Me

.

I am a Realtor and love my native Western North Carolina, its residents, its land and natural beauty. I was born in Hendersonville and returned to this great area with my wife of 49 years after a 20-year career in the military. The 6 ½ years spent in Europe gave me the love of travel and some wonderful memories and great friends. I have always had an outgoing personality and this area with diversity of people and their lives makes every day new and exciting for me. Family and relationships are important to me. We have 3 grown children, 8 grandchildren, and many close friends. They are all part of our lives of social dancing, area events, and travel. This area is the greatest place I have ever called home. I’d like everyone passing through to see the beauty and highlights of this region. If this area is a good fit for you and your family and life choices, let me help you find the perfect spot for your new home.

Experience

I represent both Buyers and Sellers of Homes and Land in real estate transactions in the Asheville/ Hendersonville/ Saluda/ Lake Lure area while dealing with the many financial options available with Howard Hanna Mortgage Services. I have learned that assisting all buyers and sellers with the options in real estate purchases be it cash, conventional, VA, FHA, owner financing or combinations of these.

After retiring from the USPS and US Army, my wife was aware of my love and knowledge of the area’s land, families, folklore, and charm; suggested I get involved in real estate. She retired after working with several local real estate Attorneys and has over 30 years experience in the field of real estate law.

Testimonials

We feel very fortunate that we just "happened" upon Randy Smith. We have dealt with multiple agents over the years and Randy was, by far, the most thorough and competent agent with whom we have had the pleasure to work. Randy was incredibly thorough and competent in all aspects of his performance, and constantly went above and beyond the call of duty to assist us in our search for a home. He was not pushy, was very genuine and fun to work with, and his attention to detail surpasses any agent we have dealt with in over forty years of moves. We can't recommend Randy enough to anyone in search of a great agent!

Don & Bethanie Granite Falls, NC

So glad I got to work with Randy. He is kind, knowledgable, funny, thoughtful, and so patient. I never felt pressured to make an offer and was even advised against making an offer that may not have served me. I would refer anyone that asks.

Ethan, Brevard

I would and have recommended Randy to any one selling their house. It took less than 5 hours to sell my house, but the lowest time you give is 2 weeks. Hmm

Randy Smith is a fellow military member who understood my moving needs, time frame, and the degree that I was able to participate in the sales process. I began working with him while stationed in Texas approximately four months before the house being put on the market. He worked with me every step of the way even though due to my military obligations, I was only able to be physically present for a 2 week period. This property had been my home of record for almost two decades and I needed his assistance and support to get the house cleared out and ready to be put on the market. He had excellent suggestions for helping me make a major move happen and preparing the house for sale such as hiring an estate sales company to clear out the house for showing. Randy helped me work through any obstacles along the way, was patient, accessible, and knowledgeable.

Kathy Farquhar, Hendersonville, NC

Randy was great in finding houses in our price range and always available when we wanted to see a house. Even on his vacation he kept in touch to see if we had any needs he could take care of. His attention to detail when looking at houses was impeccable. So nice to have such a great agent to work with, the prior agent was not near as helpful. (At another company’s) I will recommend Randy Smith to everyone I know looking to buy or sell. We plan to ask for his help in selling a house as well.

Randy Smith was selected by me because I know him as a past co-worker. he was always a positive face in an other wise depressing work place. Randy NEVER let the boss sway him to their ugliness. As my realtor he was the most helpful person. He made a lot of effort on my behalf to sell my property for me as that I move out of state. Randy did all the leg work for me even the things that Im sure realtors don't usually do. He kept me in the loop at all times. Ive told Randy many times that he is the only reason that during this entire process that its been him that has made this process not over burdening. Randy Smith has my forever dept of gratitude for being the person he is.

If anyone would ask me to help find an agent, I would highly reccomend Randy Smith because I got to know this man even for the short time we worked together. We look at hom as a family because he is easy to get along with, really friendly, and patient. There were a lot of times where we would ask too much and then takes too long to respond to him when he needs something. He is a good man and he kn0ws what he's doing. We chose the right agent. Just wanna say, Awsome job Randy!!Thank you very much!!

Everything went as explained to me and he even went to the office of the lawyer handling the closing when we had not heard anything for 2 hours after the scheduled closing time. Randy responded to my request and made me feel at ease about the process. He is a very nice gentleman and I appreciate his service to our country. He kept me in the loop and we got along well. Just an all around great guy. I couldn't be happier.

How is the tax bill of a home determined in North Carolina?

Real property is appraised at 100% of market value and includes land, buildings, structures, and improvements. State law requires counties to reappraise every eight years, but many counties reappraise every four. A bill can be a combination of tax rates. For example, a home inside the City of Asheville and Asheville City School districts will have three separate tax rates represented on a bill: the Buncombe County rate, the City of Asheville rate, and the Asheville City School rate. All rates are totaled to calculate the total tax liability. Tax rate estimates for our mountain communities can be found on page 127 of the Allen Tate/Beverly-Hanks Welcome magazine.
