Get to Know
Tracy A Southerland
Your personal concierge to Lakefront Luxury Real Estate
After beginning my working life as a paralegal in a Massachusetts Law Firm in the 1990s I chose to transition south and become a licensed South Carolina Realtor in April of 2004. During this time I focused on the Hilton Head Island Luxury market. After spending years working with ocean oriented Realtors that had 30+ years’ experience on the Island, as well as an ocean oriented home builder, I relocated to Lake Oconee in 2012. Initially I was a Lake Realtor, and then an Associate Broker in 2016. Over these years I have accumulated over $50 million dollars in transaction volume at Lake Oconee alone.
With all of that being said, I am most proud of the fact that 90% of my business has been referral based. I am the agent that you can confidently refer to your friends and family and know that they will be well taken care of. No matter your income bracket, I understand that this is one of the largest, if not the largest, asset in your financial portfolio. It is my job to spend my days analyzing data and researching all of the homes on the market in an effort to best match your needs with the perfect home. The way that I best meet that prerequisite is by being the Lake Country Board of Realtor’s caravan director. I gather data and bring my fellow realtors together a few times each month so we can support each other by viewing new homes on the market. This allows me to build relationships with fellow top producing professionals, as well as be an integral part of facilitating access to all of the local homes on the market.
Tracy was highly recommended to us by a friend who has lived at Reynolds Lake Oconee for years. We’ve relocated nine times (all over the country) and have worked with many Realtors during all of those moves. Tracy, without a doubt, has surpassed our expectations in every way. Tracy is so friendly and knowledgeable that we immediately felt at ease working with her. She kept us well informed and always had our best interest as her priority. THANK YOU, Tracy for making our Midwest transition to Lake Oconee much easier than we anticipated. Your enthusiasm and dedication to your profession is evident and greatly appreciated!
Tracy was awesome to work with! She listed our old house on a Monday and we had a contract on it that Thursday!!! When we bought our new house she handled everything in a professional manner! Her knowledge of real estate and the Lake Country is second to none!
We recently listed our Lakefront home at Lake Oconee with Tracy. We were very impressed with her handling of everything from the beginning of our process to the end We felt confident in the advice that we received from her as we felt that she was looking out for us. She is in tune with the market, is a very hard worker and is very competent. From listing the home and being available for showings… all the way up to assisting with repair requests and even helping with packing and moving the furniture! This was the best experience that we have ever had with a real estate agent.
I am very pleased to offer my highest recommendation for Tracy Southerland. Tracy assisted us in selling our second home on Lake Oconee in 2020. Tracy impressed us as sharp and genuine when we interviewed her, and that certainly turned out to be the case. She helped us arrive at an optimal list price and closed within 30 days. Throughout the process Tracy was proactive, responsive, and very buttoned up. The entire process was smooth, and Tracy stayed in constant communication with us. Best of all, she’s down-to-earth and a joy to work with. I would work with her again in a heartbeat, and would be happy to serve as a reference. You won’t find a better agent in the lake area.
Tracy: Thanks so much for your hard work in helping us sell our home and purchase a new one. Working with you was such a pleasure. Throughout both transactions, we benefited from your knowledge of the market, lake area, and neighborhoods both in and out of the gates. Your availability was amazing and you made us feel as if we were your only client/priority. We appreciated your no-nonsense, get it done approach in giving us advice, dealing with the other parties, and managing the various vendors. (Your suggestions of vendors to use was great too.) You really made the entire process low/no stress and spending time with you was a joy.
We look forward to our next opportunity to work with you and will continue to enjoy our various opportunities to stay connected with you. If you ever have a client or prospect that would like a recommendation, you may always give them our name/number/email. We would be happy to sing your praises any time.
