Deborah Guest-Smith, Transaction Coordinator

Deborah became passionate about real estate since her move to Florida as the owner and operator of her very own child-care facility.  A long serving teacher and educational practitioner, Deborah always knew that she wanted to continue on a path of helping others, and found a natural connection in real estate where she could continue to serve her clients, guiding and educating them throughout the often daunting process of real estate investment. Over the past decade, Deborah has been involved in the sales and marketing both business and residential real estate in central Florida and feels incredibly blessed to work with amazing clients who become her friends and a strong part of her network.
