Chuck was great to work with. As I live a long distance from the property, I needed a realtor who was reliable and dependable. Chuck took care of every detail, from setting an appropriate price to listing, showing, and closing. He was easy to reach anytime. I would recommend him to anyone.

Throughout the entire experience of selling our properties, Chuck provided excellent advice and was very thorough with his approach and methods. Always available to answer questions and offer guidance, Chuck's interest in helping his clients is genuine and he does a great job managing the process, especially during the negotiation phases. Highly recommend!

Over my life my wife and I have purchased many homes.  Without exception, Chuck is the best and most professional real estate agent we have engaged.  He is articulate, bright, driven, and has a great personality.  Methodical in his approach, he is never satisfied with “Status Quo,” always going the extra mile for us.  He and his team, have a unique understanding and local acceptance in the close-knit area of Cashiers, North Carolina and surrounding areas.  Without doubt, that local knowledge had a positive influence on our decision to buy.  Not once was any “sales pressure” exerted on us, with Chuck and his team providing hard verifiable facts to our numerous questions and concerns allowing us to make our own informed decisions.  Unequivocally, the advice he provided during the purchase process, as well as after the purchase contributed directly to our successful home purchase.  Obviously, we think highly of Chuck and his team.  They come no finer.  Not only did we come away with a positive experience with Chuck, my wife and I walked away with a new, lasting friendship.

Chuck and Riva clearly provided the BEST real estate experience I have ever had. Chuck helped us purchase a home, and sell a home. He gave wise advice concerning both transactions. I have had a great deal of experience in the real estate market, and I have never felt so well represented, and certainly protected. Chuck is the best and I highly recommend him.

We just closed on a townhouse in Sapphire. Chuck and Riva did an excellent job leading us through the entire process. They were always available to answer any questions we had, and they kept everything moving in a timely manner. We will always use them in the future for our real estate needs and highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy in North Carolina. 

We moved to Sapphire from Oregon and Chuck and his assistant Riva went above and beyond to cater to our real estate needs. In a very tight market, they were able to get us our dream home in a very desirable location. We felt like we were valued; we were never pressured and the comfort level we experienced was uncommon in our experience. We continue to scan Zillow for a potential second property and would not proceed without them by our side. Highly recommend without reservation.

My wife and I have been coming to Cashiers and Highlands for about 10 years now and decided it was time to find our own place in the area. During a short trip, we did online research to try to find a realtor. When we first called Chuck's office, we spoke with his assistant Riva (she's fantastic) who was very diligent in learning a bit more about us and our wants and then getting us in touch with Chuck. That weekend, Chuck spent the better part of a full day with us looking at several different types of options to help us better understand the range of inventory. With as hot as the market has been it took us a year to finally land our home with several close calls and almosts along the way. But it worked out exactly as it should have and we couldn't be happier with the home and setting we ended up with. Chuck is deeply knowledgeable about the area and is clearly well connected to a variety of helpful resources as well. He and Riva (she was absolutely integral to our process) were patient, a pleasure to work with and operated with utmost integrity. Look no further...you won't be sorry.

We have known Chuck for many years, so we did not consider any other realtor when we decide to sell our home in Cashiers. You will not find a more hard-working, efficient, and honest realtor in the area. He and his assistant, Riva, made the process very easy. Chuck diligently searched for a home for us to purchase in Highlands in a low inventory market. He not only found something that we are happy with, he did it in record time!

My husband and I were considering property in Lonesome Valley in the Cashiers area. I randomly filled out the information page on a real estate website to investigate potential properties for sale. As we were driving east out of the area, Chuck called my cell phone. He recognized my area code and reached out because we were from the same part of the Midwest. The rest is history. We purchased property in Lonesome Valley, and we purchased a home to live in while we build. Chuck (and Riva Smith) have made the entire process painless. Not only has our experience been wonderful, but we have made a friend. Chuck is genuine, honest, and most helpful. We are grateful that he jumped into our lives and we are looking forward to many years in North Carolina.

As a builder, developer, and part-time realtor in the Lake Glenville area for several years, Chuck’s assistance to my business has been immeasurable. As a seller, his knowledge of who is looking for property similar to mine has made the selling process quite simple from my perspective. Of the several properties that he has sold for me in the last five years, two of them literally were under contract within a week!  If you are selling, he knows who is looking. If you are buying, he has a comprehensive knowledge of the properties that are on the market and those that are likely to come on the market very soon. Once a property is under contract with Chuck, his organization and attention to detail allow contracts to smoothly transition to closing. I cannot express how important Chuck’s services have been to me and my business, and to top it off, he’s a pretty nice guy and always knows the best places to go for dinner!
