Marissa Smith

As a dedicated Realtor® with NextHome 1st Choice Realty, I specialize in helping clients buy, sell, and invest in properties throughout Lake Gaston and the surrounding communities in both North Carolina and Virginia — as well as the Wake Forest and Raleigh areas. Whether you're searching for a lakefront retreat, a full-time residence, an investment property, or a home closer to the Triangle, I bring local expertise, strong market knowledge, and a personalized approach to every transaction. Driven by a genuine passion for real estate and a deep appreciation for the Lake Gaston lifestyle, I understand what makes each of these markets unique. From the scenic waterfront views and laid-back lake living to the growth, convenience, and opportunity found in Wake Forest and Raleigh, I’m committed to helping you find not just a house — but the right place to call home.
