Peggie Smolko

We interviewed three realtors before picking Peggy Smolko to see our house. She recommended the highest listing price of the three and even though we did have to drop the price at one point, she obtained a selling price that was higher than any of the other brokers' starting points. She is very knowledgeable, very conversant with the use of technology and social media to advertise our home. We were working long-distance since we had moved to another state at the outset of the listing, so she had to essentially keep an eye on the house for us and take care of things that an on-site homeowner would have done. Overall, she is knowledgeable, professional, and a delight to work with. - Kate Burke

When it became obvious that we would need to move and move quickly during the off-season, we hired Peggie because of her extensive knowledge and experience of the Williamsburg market, particularly in Ford's Colony. She was invaluable to us in all aspects of our sale. Before we listed the property, she had a ready list of professionals whom we could call upon to handle necessary repairs, do the deep cleaning, and assist in packing; every one of them responsive, thorough, and reasonably priced. Once we did list, she was tireless in marketing the property, such that we were under contract in two months. Her legal referral was top-flight, and she was instrumental in guiding us through the price negotiations and closing / post-closing process. She handled a lot of details that ordinarily would not be a realtor's responsibility, such as assisting with the pack-out of remaining odds and ends, and getting the repairs required by Ford's colony done within a day or two. I've moved several times during my career, and Peggie is head and shoulders the best realtor I've been associated with. She has my strongest personal recommendation for anyone seeking to buy or sell a house in the Williamsburg area. - David and Danne
