ReviewJack Philips was our real estate agent. He helped us successfully purchase a home close to Smith Mountain Lake, VA. Jack was a pleasure to work with. He gave us with great advice and recommendations. He was very responsive and answered all our questions. Jack is very professional and we highly recommended him to anyone who needs a top notch real estate agent in the Smith Mountain Lake area.

Review I am so glad Margaret was recommended to me. She was professional, friendly and a skilled negotiator. She was knowledgeable about the area, the different communities and the unique classification for the property I was interested in and made sure I had the information necessary to obtain the proper financing. It truly was a stress free buying experience.

Review We found a house to purchase but needed to sell ours first. Margaret arrived the day after we called. She was knowledgeable of the RE market, professional, warm, and realistically optimistic. She assisted with the FSBO purchase and our sale. Her knowledge was very comforting since we have been out of the RE market for 35 years. Her team came and took photos, and made videos in the next few days. They were very creative and fun to work with. Margaret and her team were with us every step of the way, always available to answer our many questions for a professional, confidence-inspiring, successful outcome.

Review It was a pleasure to work with Margaret Craye and her team at Life Style and Lake Reality to sell our house on Starboard Lane in the Waterfront Community.It was a rewarding and excellent process. She first met with us to outline an innovative approach to insure success. As a group we developed a strategy to market, advertise, and stage the house/ property to maximize exposure to buyers. We were impressed with the professional package that evolved.While the house was on the market she and team members contacted us frequently to provide updates and feedback from potential buyers always with a positive and upbeat attitude. No effort or expense was spared by her team.We have bought and sold many properties over the years; however, her approach was the best we have encountered. She found many clients and closed the sale.We became good friends and she will remain a part of our lives.Mary and Steve Campbell

Review Living in Metro Atlanta, we had little experience in the SML area or knowledge of area realtors. We sought out Margaret based on her reviews. We were truly impressed with her approach, knowledge and guidance. Her style is refreshing. As a buyers agent, she pointed out the attributes of each property and aspects that are considered desirable. She didnt try to soften an undesirable attribute, but moreover explained its impact, and helped us weigh out the aEURoepros and cons.aEUR? We have purchased many properties in Georgia over the years, and Margaret really stands out above all the agents with which we have dealt. Furthermore, she has been very helpful in our navigation of all angles and has given us access to all her ancillary resources.

Review There are hundreds of realtors in the SML area, but Margaret stands heads above the rest in terms of her professionalism, responsiveness, and sales skills. She truly enjoys the marketing aspect of the sale, and quite honestly, once we saw the marketing materials, we wondered why we wanted to sell our home in the first place! But seriously, Margaret has the expertise needed to make the sale go smoothly. We had numerous competing offers within 2 days of the listing going live, and Margaret was able to help us get the best price for our home with no issues. Since we were negotiating from NOVa, her responsiveness was phenomenal throughout the process, including nights and weekends.What we valued the most was her calm demeanor and thoughtful approach to the entire transaction. We highly recommend Margaret to anyone looking to work with a reliable, knowledgeable, and attentive realtor. Her sense of humor can't be beat either!

Review Margaret was fantastic- she masterfully helped negotiate a unique deal with a sale by owner, giving us flexibility to find time to visit from afar while still somehow locking in a deal for us. She then had the extra challenge of working with us AND an inexperienced seller representing themselves. We would never have been able to buy this wonderful property without Margaret!

Review Margaret Craye and her team provided outstanding service to us during our search for a lake house on SML. We live in upstate NY, 10 hours from the lake which made our search that much more difficult. Margaret was our eyes and ears on the lake. Countless times she went to properties on our behalf, filmed video walk throughs to send to us and provided her honest opinion on the properties. Her goal was not just to close a sale but to ensure that we found the right property for us, a place we would love for years to come. More than once, when we were getting desperate, she talked us out of properties that we would not have been happy with. We are very thankful for her clear eyed assessments because the property we ended up purchasing is exactly what we were looking for. Margaret's knowledge of the lake market and the areas/communities that surround the lake was crucial to our success. Even after we were under contract the service continued to be top notch. Recommendations for lenders, insurance companies, assistance with utilities and the list goes on. Throughout the process communication with Margaret was always timely and professional and we always felt that she had our best interest as her top priority. I cannot recommend her highly enough and will, without hesitation, refer her to anyone who asks.

Review My wife and I recently purchased a home on Smith Mountain Lake. Margaret Craye was exactly the realtor we needed to help us! And it was challenging during a difficult pandemic in a super competitive market!There were not many house options in the location and price range we were seeking....and when a house came on the market that met our criteria, it would be under contract above market price in what seemed like only hours....to further add to the complexity and stress we were in a time crunch as we'd already and closed on our house in SC...and who wants to rent and move twice? Margaret was superb at strategies to help purchase homes and was extremely familiar with the area and other realtors...For the home we purchased, she was able to get us an advance showing the day before the house was scheduled to go on the market - and helped us negotiate a deal that the house never got on the market so we didn't get caught in the massive bidding wars so prevalent in this market.Typically when I do this type of evaluation I mark at least one or two categories lower to differentiate where strongest attributes are....no realtor is perfect, right? I couldn't find a category that I felt was weaker so I'm happy to give her top ratings across the board.Thanks Margaret!

Review Having been a home builder my entire life and dealt with 100's of different realtors/brokers, I have to give Margaret special kudos for her knowledge of not only the area but the marketplace. My wife and I are totally convinced that she and her team saved us thousands of dollars when it came time to negotiate the offer to purchase. Margaret's integrity, whether she is your listing selling agent or your buyer agent, is above reproach and we cannot thank her or recommend her enough.

Review We just recently closed on a lot at Smith Mountain Lake. She came recommended from another person that lived there. She got back to us on our inquiries with different lots, and sending us links to information we needed to have in order to decide. She also had great recommendation for a local custom builder, who we like very much. I think her best quality was negotiation skills. We saved about 5K over what I was going to offer and accept. I was nervous during negotiation, but there were no other buyers, and sellers had actually pulled off the market shortly before we made an offer. She got us through it and I felt we paid a fair price and saved some money. She was also responsive when we had to extend the closing date because of backup in getting a person to do soil feasibility study. The electronic signing of documents was easy to do remotely. Super impressed with her negotiation skills.

Review I stalked Margaret on Social Media before hiring her to help us purchase our Lake home at Smith Mountain Lake. So I knew going in she had the ethical foundation that I wanted to work with. Margaret has been exceptional in working for our family in finding our home. We were 3 hours away and she would preview the homes and face time us to see if it was worthwhile for us to travel to see the home. I am glad she was on our side of the table! She knew how to negotiate, was extremely resourceful, she was willing to try new things to secure the home for us and she totally succeeded. Her after sale help has been great as well since we are 3 hours away. We needed help with several things that were being delivered prior to us getting there, getting utilities hooked up, she took care of being present for us until we could be there. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home. She gives 200%. Now that our "business" side of things are done, I am happy to have my first friend at SML!!! Thanks Margaret & Team!

Review Working with Margaret will be the best decision you will ever make! She made the experience of selling our home calm, and enjoyable. Right after we moved to Florida, she put the house on the market. After only four days, we had multiple offers! Two of the offers were above asking price. With her help, we chose the best one for us, and everything flowed like clockwork. She was always available for anything we needed. She went above, and beyond for us, and I know she will do the same for you.

Review Margaret was incredibly helpful in our search for the perfect lake house at Smith Mountain Lake. As I conducted our search remotely, she was able to assist my family fluidly. Among the things that stood out with Margaret was her honesty; she wasnt going to sell us a house quickly as to move on to the next customer, she was truly interested in helping us find the best home for our family. Margaret is hard working, extremely knowledgeable regarding SML (real estate, the lake itself, the local community) and forth right; a hard combination to find. I would highly recommend working with Margaret Craye for your real estate needs.

Review We were referred to Margaret by an agent in our area for purchase of a second home at SML. In a hot market, Margaret went and took videos of properties on our behalf, or facetimed us to do the tour "with" her - since we're 4 hours away and houses were going so fast! Then, whenever we could make the trip to SML, she took us around to houses all around the lake so we could get a feel for market values ourselves. We ended up writing an offer on a home that we only saw through a Margaret "facetime tour". It was a competitive situation, and with Margaret's help - we came out on top! Thank you Margaret, for being our eyes, and helping us nab such a fabulous family home!

Review Margaret was referred to us by our friend who is an experienced realtor. We were very impressed by Margarets wealth of knowledge in SML real estate, financing, construction costs and general lake living. Being out of the area she took time to schedule our first meeting over video conferencing and answered all of our questions professionally. Margaret was prepared for our weekend visit and devoted as much time as we needed to show us properties around the lake that had our long wish list in mind. Margaret helped us craft the winning offer to our dream home. The seller pointed out that it was the cleanest contract that they had seen and tipped the scale in our favor. We highly recommend Margaret as our real estate professional.

Review Margaret is your best advocate in the process of buying/selling a home. She has an abundant knowledge of todays technology to fully take advantage of marketing your home. My selling and buying experiences were six months apart, both during the height of the pandemic. My house sold in one day with multiple offers above asking price. Her advice for pricing the home at an attractive price, but not overpricing showed her intimate knowledge of the current market. I needed to move quickly on a home purchase and there were already two offers on the home. She walked through several contract options that would make mine competitive with the previous offers. I got the house! Margaret stays in touch during the entire process with advice, timelines, recommendations for people who can get the various process pieces done. I HIGHLY recommend Margaret and her team. You will not be disappointed!

Review Margaret Craye was recommended to us by an out of area realtor and we are extremely pleased to recommend her to others. Margaret knows Smith Mountain Lake; it is that simple. She also quickly gets to know clients by listening, asking questions and staying focused. Matching clients interest with properties aEUR" location, price, amenities is her strong suit. The process of finding the ideal property is smooth, transparent and timely. Margaret is personable, respectful, responsive, and a genuine pleasure to work with. She found just what we were looking for almost before we knew what we were looking for. She stuck with a winning marketing strategy and when our ideal accommodations came on the market, she was right there to craft a solid offer the seller couldnt refuse. Margaret was there for us after the seller accepted our offeraEUR|. Right through and even after closing. She was magnificent in every way.

Review Margaret was extremely helpful as our buyers agent. As we were new to the lake, so on our first trip to look at houses, she devoted an entire day just showing us around. She selected a number of varied houses to show us that she had carefully researched, so by the end of that first day we felt we understood the market thanks to her expertise. When we found the house of our dreams, she wrote a contract that enabled us to secure the house, even though it had 7 other offers on it. The seller later told us that he selected our offer because of the way the contract was written. We can honestly say that we would never would have won the house without Margaret's knowledge of the market. She is the best of he best!

Review We met Margaret as a "buyer" and at that time felt confident we would contract with her as a "seller" at the appropriate time. That decision was not misplaced or second guessed. Margaret understood the market, priced the property competitively, staged and marketed the property extremely well, and was always responsive to our needs, requests, and the property was sold within 48 hours of listing !!!!

Review Margaret was instrumental in helping us find our dream lake home. We found her by a stroke of luck and knew instantly she was the right agent for us. She knows the lake like the back of her hand and has countless resources at her fingertips. She took the time to get to know our family and understand our needs. Margaret showed us homes by land and by boat, and once we found the one, her expertise in the negotiation process was crucial in our landing the deal. Throughout the entire process we never felt a single regret and really enjoyed getting to know her in the process. Margaret is a gem of an agent

Review Margaret was very patient with us in our process of finding a condo that we would really enjoy. She was excellent in providing us guidance in areas around Smith Mtn Lake that we wanted to explore. When it came time to make an offer, she was respectful but honest in dealing with the sellers agent. I think what sets her apart from other real estate agents is her negotiation skills. That truly impressed us and we believe we got a great place for the value. She was with us the entire process from exploring, to making an offer, to negotiations, inspections and HOA questions. She was present during closing and made sure everything was going as smoothly as possible. I would certainly recommend her as a buyers agent and would love for her to represent us as a sellers agent if we ever do sell our property.

Review Margaret is a true professional. She acted as a buyers agent for us and led us through the ups and downs of the buying process. She was patient with us and the sellers and got us to closing keeping us informed but shielded from the many parts of the transaction. She made a complex deal seem simple She is also a very nice person with a great attitude who is easy to work with. We appreciated her efforts and we hope she knows how much we valued her dedication to us.

Review Best realtor at the lake hands down. Our experience with Margaret was phenomenal. My husband and I are a young couple who recently purchased our first home together. Her knowledge, intuition, and expertise were invaluable. Every question or concern we had through the entire process was exceedingly answered and was a priority to her. We did not feel like just another client. She went above and beyond anything she was obligated to do as a realtor and was confident and reassuring throughout the buying process. The care she takes with her clients is remarkable and we would recommend her ten times over and would choose her again if we could.

Review Margaret was very patient with us and worked diligently to find us a house that fit our lifestyle. She worked very hard to accommodate our requests even with the short notices we often had. We were uncertain about what we were looking for and some 40 houses later we ended up purchasing a house that she had selected early in our search. We hope she will stay in touch and join us for an occasional glass of wine while enjoying the mountain views overlooking Smith Mountain Lake.

Review I have worked with many real estate brokers and agents on a dozen or more real estate transact ions over the years and I can say with confidence that Margaret is the best agent/ broker I have ever worked with.Margaret has vast knowledge of the lake community which makes her an extremely successful and effective broker. I cant say enough about her professionalism and knowledge within the industry. She has high integrity and is very conscientious, always keeping the clients best interests in mind. My real estate purchase was a small transaction relative to the size of properties and transactions Margaret normally handles but she treated me with the same professionalism and courtesies one would expect for a very large transaction. One of the qualities I respected the most was her no- nonsense style. She gets to the point quickly yet professionally, always respecting the clients time. She does a great job of listening to her clients needs and does not waste time showing properties which do not meet the clients objectives. She does extensive research to assist with assessing a fair market value of the property for the offer and then negotiates effectively with the opposing broker on behalf of the client. She is extremely responsive to questions, and pays great attention to the details enabling the transaction to get done. I have the highest level of confidence in her. My transaction went very smoothly and I closed in a very short time. Margaret represented me on the purchase side of the transaction. I also would not hesitate to use her as my listing agent if I was selling a property. She is very smart and transactions can sometime become very complex. I have the highest level of confidence in her and feel she would be able to properly assess any situation and figure out an effective solution. I highly recommend Margaret for any real estate transaction.

Review We were very fortunate to come across Margaret when looking to list land for sale and could not have been happier with our experience working with her. Not only have we signed the closing documents for the land, but also closed on a home at Smith Mountain Lake to start enjoying the lake life. Margaret earned our trust while working with her, looking at houses, and in talking with her about different properties and offers. With all of the recently closed and current pending deals, we still felt like we were her only customers as she was always quick to respond and provided information on anything we asked. She knows her business, is honest with you, and will help throughout the entire process of selling, buying, or in our case, both. There is a reason Margaret has all of these great reviews, she earned them and will definitely earn many others too. Thank you!

Review MILLION DOLLAR LISTING??? GET A MILLION DOLLAR AGENT! As excellent negotiators ourselves, and having close friends who own an independent real estate brokerage in an affluent area; we were referred to and interviewed three of the Smith Mountain Lake areas' top REALTORS. We chose to move into listing negotiations with Margaret CrayA(C) and one other agent. Margaret had refreshing ideas, excellent communication, and a strong desire to work to sell our home. Not to mention we thought she would be fun to work with.We knew we could potentially negotiate for a lesser commission fee during the listing process, especially with a greater than $1M+ dollar listing. Margaret confidently responded with absolute assurance that her services were worth every penny and then some; and, we 'wholeheartedly' agree!! Margaret respectfully declined a discount listing commission and she put her heart and soul into the selling of our home. There was nothing standard about the care that was put into facilitating the preparation of our home for the market: she personally oversaw the staging of every single room and produced the most creative marketing content to increase engagement! Million dollar listings sometimes take well in excess of a year on the open real estate market at Smith Mountain Lake to sell (sometimes multiple years). Our home sold in just excess of 3 months for cash. When we had purchased the home it had been on the market for 854 days by yet another well respected 'top' area agent. Margaret is unwaveringly client-centric, and is one of the rare people who aligns their words and their actions. Choose to work collaboratively with her and it is like working with a trusted friend who will listen to your needs, anticipate and initiate actions to meet your goals and mentor with the very best experience; where talent and mindfulness collide. You can trust her implicitly to look out for your real estate interests. We will recommend Margaret Craye time and again!

Review I have worked with Margaret for several years on our land listing at SML. She definitely has more knowledge of the Lake and the rules and regulations than anyone that I have ever worked with. She makes sure that the process runs smoothly from listing to closing, constantly making sure that all steps are completed and on time. Margaret put in more time and effort into my listing than I expected even though it was not a high dollar listing for her. She was willing to come to the property and measure in the rain and offer great advice to us. She worked with AEP and made sure they answered our questions and kept them on the timeline.You will know the true value of an agent in how they responds to a sale that is having issues. Margaret went far beyond my expectations there, she keeps detailed notes and knows when and who to call for answers.Bottom line, I have worked with many agents over the years in selling and buying houses and I would never use anyone else in the future because of her knowledge and professionalism

Review Margaret went above and beyond to work around my work schedule. As a first time home buyer, she went through the whole process with me and made sure I had no questions. She explained the contract and wanted to make sure I understood what I was signing. Even when issues came up, she made sure to take swift action in keeping us on track to close on time. After closing, she even sent me a gift card to help with the cost of a washer and dryer set since they were nonoperational. I will definitely use Margaret for any future home purchases I plan to make!

Review If you want to work with a consummate professional who will do whatever it takes to get your house sold, I highly recommend Margaret Craye. We hired Margaret because of her success in selling other homes in our neighborhood. Our house had been on the market for many months when we hired Margaret. She told us exactly what we would need to do to sell the house (which did not include lowering the price!) With our blessing, she took over the process to manage everything that needed to get done to get our house ready for showing in a very short time. She did anything and everything to stay true to our agreed upon timeline!Margaret is also very creative and came up with a clever twist for our video home tour that literally resulted in thousands of views. The most important result: Our home sold three weeks after listing! We were blown away by Margarets ability to get the job done.Margaret instilled a great deal of trust in us from the beginning. We did not question her suggestions and I believe our sale in such a short period of time was due to letting Margaret help us with decisions and then do what she does best aEUR" marketing our home and closing a deal.We are grateful for her help and refer her at every chance we get. You wont be disappointed!
