"If you’re looking for a realtor who truly goes above and beyond, we cannot recommend Carolyn and her Coastal Estate Team at Compass (Thanks Jen!) highly enough.

"If you’re looking for a realtor who truly goes above and beyond, we cannot recommend Carolyn and her Coastal Estate Team at Compass (Thanks Jen!) highly enough. We’ve had the privilege of working with her for 14 years and through three new home builds, and over that time she has become so much more than our realtor — she’s become our friend. No one works harder, is more honest, or has their clients’ best interests at heart the way Carolyn does. She advocates for you, guides you through every step, and thinks of the things you didn’t even know you needed to consider. Building and buying homes can be super stressful, but she and her team make the process feel smooth, organized, and even enjoyable. What sets Carolyn apart is the genuine care she has for the people she works with. You never feel like just another transaction. She treats every decision as if it were her own and always goes the extra mile to make sure everything is right. After three builds and more than a decade of working together, we wouldn’t trust anyone else with such an important journey. If you have the chance to work with Carolyn, take it — you’ll be in the very best hands. 🏡✨"

"We recently bought a new home and sold our previous home, both with help of Carolyn Smith and the Coastal Estate Team at Compass. When we purchased our new home, I wrote a review detailing how amazing that experience was in working with Carolyn. Once we moved, we listed our previous home and Carolyn again did an incredible job for us! She got our house listed very quickly, had it staged beautifully and attracted interested buyers right away. We went under contract quickly and Carolyn was there with us, advising us and helping to make sure that we were informed throughout the entire process. Her team worked diligently behind the scenes with us as well to make sure we were aware of all deadlines, due dates, and steps along the way. We could reach out to Carolyn with questions anytime and get quick answers and feedback. Carolyn and her team were always there making sure we were heard and aware. We could not be happier with our experience, Carolyn and her entire team truly go above and beyond all our expectations in everything they do."

"Carolyn and her team are absolutely amazing. I found her while researching various realtors while doing a search online and my instincts were right on point. We were wanting to downsize after living in our family home that was originally built in 1982. Through the years it had gone from a quarter lot to an acre and the home nearly doubled in size designed to reflect a hotel resort which made it complicated to compare home value in the area and would need a particular buyer. Carolyn and her team were amazing and saw our vision for marketing where others did not. We had a few difficulties along the way that made me panic but she was a comfort and a steady hand the entire process. No way our home would have sold with any other realtor. I know because we tried. She and her team are well experienced in their field always updating and guiding us everyday to get the house sold and keeping us from getting overwhelmed. Not only did our unique home sell faster than I thought it would but they also found us the perfect home to move into. Don’t waste your time or energy researching realtors Carolyn Smith and her team are perfect for all your real estate needs. We could not have sold our home in the time frame we did without them. Simply above and beyond friendly, professional and amazing! Excellent experience."

"I wanted to take a few minutes to write a brief review about my recent experience with Carolyn Smith and the Coastal Estate Team at Compass. With Carolyn’s help, we just closed on our home purchase and she was there, tirelessly working for us every step of the way. From the very beginning, she was out searching to find us the home we were looking for, even though we had a rather rigid set of criteria to meet. She found us several options to look at and was incredibly knowledgeable about the areas and the neighborhoods we were considering, which helped immensely to narrow down our choices. In the end, she found the exact home that fit the bill for us! Once we decided, she was there every day, helping us with all the steps needed to make the purchase. She was brilliant with offering strategies and different ways to construct our offer and all subsequent negotiations. I just can not adequately express how incredibly useful all her help and advice were. Once we were rolling toward our closing, Carolyn, Jen and her entire team were there for us, answering questions, keeping us informed of next steps, etc. etc. I HIGHLY recommend Carolyn and her team, this was far and away the most detailed and comprehensive home buying experience we have ever had! 11 out of 10 stars!"
