Here's how I work:
Step 1: Initial Meeting
I meet with you at your home to get to know you and learn about your situation. We walk through your home and discuss how I can help you sell your home. I answer any questions you may have about how I work and the service I offer.
Step 2: Listing Agreement
We review and sign the listing agreement via DocuSign or in person.
Step 3: Schedule Professional Services
Once the listing agreement is signed, I schedule the following services:
1. Photos
High quality photos are critical for selling your home quickly for the best price. I hire a professional photographer to shoot high quality interior, exterior and aerial phots.
2. Measuring
I hire a professional to measure your home and provide a floor plan with rooms labeled to attach in the MLS.
Step 4: Pricing Strategy
Need to sell fast? Do you have time to test the market? I work with clients to determine the best pricing strategy for their needs.
Step 5: Marketing Plan
I customize each marketing plan based on my clients needs and situation. I review all the best marketing options with my clients to create a strategy that sells their home. This process includes discussing whether or not to run an open house, how to promote your home online and through social media, and any other marketing initiatives.
Step 6: ShowingTime Shedule
Showing availability varies from client to client. Do you have small children? Do you work from home? These are some of the factors to consider when making your hame availabile for prospective buyers. I help clients design a showing schedule that works best to maximize showings based on their specific situation.
Step 7: Property Description and MLS Page
I’m an experienced freelance writer and author. I know how to write the best property descriptions that tell the story to sell your home. I work with clients to find the best features and benefits to highlight for prospective buyers. I also choose the best combination of photos to showcase your home.
Step 8: Sign and Lockbox
Usually the day before going active on the MLS I place the yard sign and set up the lockbox for your home. I use Supra lockboxes, not combination lockboxes, in order to track who opens the lockbox and accesses your home.
Step 9: Active on MLS
I launch the listing on MLS and sell your home!

Why List with Rob Smith
Communication
I prioritize communication with my clients. When you list with me you will always know what is happening with your home. You can always call or text me with any questions or concerns. Occasionally I can’t take a call but I will return your call as soon as possible. I’m always in contact and I never go missing in action.
Honesty
I always tell the truth about my abilities, what I know and don’t know, and what has happened or will happen during the listing process. I never misrepresent my experience or ability when working with clients. If I don’t know something I will tell you I don’t know and then go find the answer.
Work Ethic
I’m committed to providing quality service. I will work hard for you to sell your home from the beginning of the process, to closing and beyond. I’m not lazy and I’m not afraid of hard work.
Authenticity
I’m the same with everybody I work with and I’m not a sales chameleon. I treat all of my clients with the same level of respect and the same level of service. I communicate equally with all clients. I’m also little bit weird and goofy but that’s just part of who I am.
Testimonials
I have purchased and sold four homes in my life and my experience with Rob Smith was far and away the best experience to date. I needed to sell my town home in Sedgefield relatively quickly and was having difficultly getting another Charlotte agent in town to engage. In frustration, I called Rob. I was primarily interested in his offer to sell my home at a lower commission rate. I just assumed that there would be a corresponding reduction in service due to the reduced cost. WAS I EVER WRONG!! Rob came to review my plans and we signed documents THE SAME DAY I CALLED HIM! Rob listed my home within a week (including the coordination with the photographer, MLS, etc.). I was under contract with a buyer seven days later.
If you are purchasing or selling a home in the Charlotte metro area, Rob Smith should be your agent. He is responsive to all of your needs, he will aggressively market your home and most importantly, your home will sell quickly! Give Rob a call. You will not be disappointed.
Rob just sold my house. He worked so hard to get the job done right. It was great doing business with him. Thank you so much, Rob!
I have bought two homes in Charlotte, North Carolina and there’s a reason why Rob Smith was our go-to Realtor, among thousands of real estate brokers in the area. Rob is a patient, kind and attentive real estate agent who was there every step of the way for us to ensure that we found our dream home within our needs and our budget. He is incredibly responsive and honest and will make sure that you find what you’re looking for. I used to think of real estate brokers in the same lane as a car salesmen, who are more interested in making a commission than helping you find the right fit, but Rob has changed our minds! We’re glad to have him as our go-to for selling and buying homes and would recommend him to anyone! Definitely give Rob Smith a call. Thank you Rob!!
Working with Rob was awesome! He was with us every step of the way, from the sale of our house to the purchase of our new home. He was in constant communication, provided great updates, and engaged the appropriate people when issues arose before closing on our new home. He fought for us when we needed it and we would not hesitate to use him again. He is highly recommended.
I had Rob for my realtor. He went way beyond his call for realtor. He is extremely professional and helpful. I could not of ask for him to do anything else. He was experienced and knew what to expect,and relayed that to me. I had a difficult sale, and he knew exactly how to handle the sale. I would recommend him to anyone. And would use his services again and again. You will not be disappointed at all with him being your realtor. Give him a chance! A great guy!
Rob did everything that he said he would do in a very timely manner. He provided great advice throughout the listing and eventual home purchase offer process. I would highly recommend using Rob as your home listing real estate agent.
Wish I could do 10 stars. Rob is easy to work with and a very professional RE broker. Represented us way better than others in the area. Will always go with Rob!! Thank you sir for all your help and guidance.
Rob is simply fantastic! Communication was incredible! Every question was answered quickly. Our closing was so easy. He answers the phone on the first call. Thank you for making this process so easy for us.
Rob was wonderful to work with. He was efficient, kept us in the loop every step of the way and was very knowledgeable. He made selling our house very easy and stress-free!
