Experience Counts! TRUSTED! A WVU Graduate! Now,more than ever, experience matters! Let me put my 38+ years of Local Experience to work for you! Hello from the beautiful Low Country! My name is Lea Allen Smith with RE/MAX Island Realty and I am proud to announce that I have just been awarded Zillow's Local Expert Award! A West Virginia native, I have been fortunate enough to live in The Hilton Head/Bluffton area for 41years and have successfully been selling real estate here for over 38 years! Now that is what you call experience!! I am a Master Certified Negotiation Expert (CNE), Accredited Buyer's Rep (ABR), Luxury Home Specialist, RE/Max Hall of Fame recipient and recently have been awarded the prestigious Lifetime Achievement Designation. I have watched this area grow and prosper. My knowledge of the many communities of Hilton Head Island, Sun City, Okatie and the booming town of Bluffton is unmatched. I take the time to learn because my clients deserve the very best. Hilton Head Island is a magical place. It's a World Class Resort with a small town feel. It has some of the most beautiful scenery on the East Coast and boasts beautiful top-10 beaches, dozens of championship golf courses, exquisite dining, family activities, and trendy shops. Hilton Head also offers a spectacular Arts Center, Universities, excellent private schools, and close proximity to major cities like Charleston and Savannah, GA. It's a wonderful place to vacation, raise your family or spend your retirement years. If you are looking for a Realtor that can truly help you buy or sell your dream home. Look no further. Please scroll down through the many reviews and see how happy and satisfied some of my customers are. (ps) the past sales feature and the zestimates are not always accurate. This is why you need to work with an expert to help you sift through the many communities. I look forward to working with you! I love what I do and it shows! Sincerely, Lea 843-338-6073 www.Lea.homesonhiltonhead.com I am never too busy for you or your referrals!

We had an outstanding experience working with Lea when purchasing a condo in South Carolina. Since we werent able to be there in person, Lea went above and beyond to guide our daughter through every step of the process with care, professionalism, and constant communication. She made what could have been a stressful situation feel smooth and manageable, always making herself available to answer questions and provide reassurance. Her knowledge of the market and attention to detail gave us complete confidence, even from afar. Were incredibly grateful for her dedication and support, and we would highly recommend Lea to anyone looking for a trustworthy and exceptional real estate professional!

Lea is great! My husband and I have been looking for something on and off in Hilton Head for 5 years. Then in February 2026 during a 3 week visit , we contacted Lea. We were interested in her because she had such wonderful reviews, and I'm glad we did! She showed us an area that we had not previously been considering, however that's where she found us the perfect place! She's professional, punctual and made the whole purchase endeavor move seamlessly. I highly recommend her, she loves what she does, and it shows!

As a long term resident of the island she knows the different communities on Hiltonhead island, She listens to her clients , gives well sounded advice and finishes the deal by dotting the Is and crossing the Ts. Thank for helping us find the perfect place that met our needs. Chris

Lea was so incredibly dedicated with every aspect of selling our home. From ensuring the best marketing to top tradesman for repairs, Lea made sure everything was taken care of always. Her professionalism and compassion helped us through many challenges. She was always available for us and always two steps ahead of everyone else. This is why we have asked Lea to represent us three times. She is the best in her field. Hands down.
