"My wife Gail and I would like to whole-heartedly recommend Denise Smith if you need a realtor. We were fortunate enough to team up with Denise when we were in search of a buyer’s agent during our quest for a condominium in the Baltimore area. Although based in Annapolis, Denise made countless trips to Baltimore to show us properties, and we were extremely difficult to please! Nevertheless, she worked with us tirelessly and the hard work ultimately paid off with our dream retirement condo. Not only was Denise incredibly helpful and patient during the search process, but she also proved invaluable in our negotiations with the seller. Thanks to her advice and assistance in preparing our offer/counter-offers we felt like we got an incredible value in a unit we previously thought was well out of our price range. Lastly, Denise expertly guided us through the closing process including home inspection, necessary repairs, settlement paperwork, etc. In summary, we worked as a high functioning team through the search, contract preparation, and closing processes. And she did it with a pleasant, cooperative attitude that made it all enjoyable. Again, we highly recommend her to prospective buyers or sellers!!"

"This past month we closed on our home in Annapolis after having lived there for 28 years. We had been very attached to our home but decided to move to Nevada to be close to our children and grandchildren. While searching for the right realtor to handle our sale, we felt that we need look no further once we met and worked with Denise Smith. We were familiar with her as she had handled my parent’s condo sell a few years before. Denise is very thorough, knowledgeable, and has great attention to details. She was always accessible to answer any question or to help with suggestions on repair companies, etc. One of the pluses in working with Denise was the booklet that she put together for prospective buyers – it had our floor plans, list of remodeled items and beautiful full color pictures of the yard and rooms. We would highly recommend Denise Smith with Long and Foster. Her whole team was great – so if you are searching for the right realtor for you – look no further."

"As a military family returning from an overseas deployment, Denise was a tremendous help in finding a home for us during a very tight rental market in Annapolis. The best thing about Denise was that, after only a few days of working with us in person, she had a precise idea of what we needed and wanted for our family and continued the search on our behalf while we were a few states away. And her efforts were not limited to just whatever popped up on MLS - even if a house was listed outside the parameters we had set, for example, she would preview it and thoroughly investigate whether the terms could be altered in our favor. Often, houses which seems like a good fit on paper didn't have the right feel for us - something she could assess without us even being there, When a property came on the market that she felt was a good match, she was very aggressive in pursuing it without any input from us, often having filed the initial paperwork within hours of the listing going public. The end result was that we were able to secure the perfect house, sight unseen, on our terms. Trying to find a house is stressful enough. Doing it long distance is even worse. So having Denise on our side was, in hindsight, an indispensable asset. She was consistently professional in her approach and was very thorough and effective during the negotiations. Her care and loyalty to us was unwavering and now, even months after we have moved in and the deal has long been finalized, she follows up with us. Without a doubt, Denise is the only agent whom we will call upon when it is time to purchase a home because we know she will fully support us during the entire process and beyond. "
