I have bought and sold several homes over the past thirty years, but my experience with Chris Smith has been unique. His excellent marketing skills and his open, friendly, and courteous manners led to the quick sale of my Uptown home. Further, he was able to easily identify which available homes in the Garden District would be appropriate for my current needs and he assisted me through the process of negotiations, inspection, and closing with professionalism and careful attention to every detail of the transaction. Needless to say, I would retain Chris as my Real Estate Agent for any further purchase or sale of property in New Orleans.

Chris Smith is our Realtor for life. He sold our first house within a week after it had been sitting on the market for a year with another agent. He sold a second house for us despite the adversities of Hurricane Katrina. He has found two properties for us that have been the perfect fit. Chris is a highly motivated agent who excels as a closer. He also excels at follow up after a contract is accepted. We highly recommend Chris.

Mike Smith
"I would highly recommend Chris Smith, he is a wonderful real estate agent. He really cares about his clients and strives to complete the deal whether you are selling or buying. Chris is great to work with and wants his clients to be satisfied. He sold our house, then sold my son and daughter-in-law a house! We want to keep him in our family!"
Margie Breeden
"A friend of mine referred me to Chris Smith to list my property for sale. Chris listed my property for sale and within only six hours he brought me a FULL PRICE offer and the property closed within three weeks. I have since used Chris for ALL of my real estate needs and would not consider using anyone else!! He is truly the BEST at what he does..."

"Chris Smith devoted an extraordinary amount of time and energy to helping me find the perfect home after Hurricane Katrina destroyed my Lakeview home. I would recommend his services to anyone in the New Orleans area."

"Chris Smith has assisted me in selling my home and purchasing a home. Through both of these transactions, Chris was always accessible, timely and prompt, and very professional. He was extremely reliable and knowledgeable and I really appreciated his honesty. I would recommend anyone looking to rent, sell, or purchase a home to hire Chris Smith, he really helped me."

"Chris Smith is a true professional. We met with two other agents when we were ready to sell and our choice was easy. We chose Chris who exceeded our expectations on many levels; his salesmanship, his fortitude, and his professionalism. He sold our house in record-breaking time. In addition, Chris assisted us in finding tenants for our other property. Chris is extremely reliable, very accessible, and you can count on him to follow-up on every task. We strongly recommend Chris Smith for your real estate needs."
Jonathan & Jennifer Schwehm
"We cannot recommend Chris highly enough. Not only did he sell our house quickly and for our full asking price, but he worked tirelessly to find us the perfect home to buy. While some other houses in our neighborhood sat on the market with no activity, Chris generated a flurry of activity on ours and attracted the right buyers. He was always responsive to our needs and questions, often coming to our aid before we knew we needed it. We felt totally and completely comfortable with Chris handling what were the two biggest financial transactions of our lives thus far. We will certainly come back to Chris again and again."

My wife and I relocated to Nevada and were faced with the overwhelming challenge of selling our home in New Orleans. There is absolutely no way that we could have done this without Chris Smith's expertise, professionalism and dedication. Within less than two weeks we had our home under contract and within the dates specified in our purchase agreement we had a closed sale. We are without a doubt, a believer in Chris Smith and his ability to make the sale happen. Chris saw through to every single detail and aspect of our sale. He is simply put, the VERY BEST at what he does. For New Orleans Real Estate, he really is the best in the business!!

I listed my home on Laurel Street with Chris Smith and he sold it in only five days. Over the past several years, I had come to know about Chris from seeing so many of his other listings and advertisements all over town. His slogan of "Dedicated Service and Consistent Results" is absolutely accurate. The services that I received from him were first class and the REAL RESULTS speak for themselves. I could not have sold my home and gotten the price that I received without him. I am sincerely a grateful and happy client of Chris Smith.

Considering all the horror stories we had heard about the misery of buying your first home, we were prepared for the absolute worst. Fortunately, a friend introduced us to Chris Smith. One of the things that impressed us most is that after listening to our wants, needs, desired location and preferred price range, Chris demonstrated his unrivaled ability to find us the home that best fit our ideal within the limits we imposed. The homes he showed us proved just how intuitively he understood what was really important to us in buying a home for our growing family. Despite our fears, the entire closing process was truly painless due to Chris's insight, dedication and professionalism. It was only afterwards that we learned, from a third party, how much work behind the scenes Chris had done to bring the transaction to closing once we made the decision to buy. We would never consider using anyone else to shepherd us through a property sale, whether buying or selling . Devin & Jennifer Morris
Through an advertisement that I saw about Chris Smith in the New Orleans Times Picayune, I contacted Chris to meet with me regarding the sale of my home. I immediately felt comfortable with Chris and felt certain that he would be the best person for the job. ALL of my hopes and expectations were a reality, Chris sold my home within a very short time and was able to get FULL PRICE for my property. He was ALWAYS AVAILABLE whenever I called. And I did call often, as it had been quite a while since I had bought or sold any property. Chris was always patient and answered all of my questions and concerns. I would highly recommend Chris Smith to anyone that has any real estate needs in New Orleans. He has a genuine passion for what he does and always puts his clients needs first!

Chris is Amazing! Let me explain why I'm the perfect one to brag about Chris. Almost a year ago, I listed my house with a very pleasant couple; however, I was out of town (living in Texas) and couldn't be there to manage everything. Obviously, neither could my "agents". Once I returned to NOLA, I hired another one. She was nice enough too. She let people run through the house, exploring everything, without watching them at all. I came home on two separate occasions and the air conditioner had been taken apart, literally. When I asked what had happened, she had "no idea." So, I had go to sleep with no A/C in the middle of August and pay for someone to come out and fix it! Finally after wasting my time with two other useless agents, I used the one agent that I should have listed with in the first place, Chris Smith. By this time, I had moved to Baton Rouge. But it didn't matter, because Chris took care of everything. In less than two months, Chris had not only found a suitable buyer, but we closed on it. So if you are ever hesitant as to whom to choose, don't be. Chris is a completely different type of agent. He's proactive, engaging and trustworthy. He gets results. Unfortunately, I had to learn the hard way. But three is a charm, and Chris most definitely was for me. If you're planning on putting your house up on the market, or you're looking to purchase a new home, only trust a professional, ONLY TRUST CHRIS SMITH.
