Heather Smith loves what she does. That’s why she is on her way to being Davis and Weber Counties’ top real estate agent. How does she do it? That’s just who she is. Her love of home design, research skills and helping others helps her serve each and every one of her clients in the best possible way.

Heather was born in the state of Florida to a teacher and a lawyer who taught her how it takes dedication, passion and hard work to make life meaningful. During junior high they taught her not to be afraid to go for a dream when they moved their whole family to the beautiful northern town of Logan, Utah. It was not an easy move, but it taught her family about faith, perseverance and friendships. That’s why Heather loves the challenge of helping you reach for your dreams by finding you the perfect home or the perfect buyer.

Heather graduated from Utah State University in 1989 with a Bachelor’s degree in Human Resource Management, after which she worked in retail management for four years. As she became interested more and more in home design, she was offered a management and sales position with a custom wood and cabinetry company, which gave her the opportunity to design kitchens and baths for many of the Parade of Homes. In 1993, one of those kitchens was awarded as Best Kitchen & Bath Design.

Shortly after that time, Heather and her family’s lives changed dramatically. She was diagnosed with brain cancer in 1995 and underwent brain surgery twice. It was a trying time where dreams and priorities changed, faith grew and prayers were answered. If you ask her, Heather will unhesitatingly tell you she believes in miracles. Since then, Heather has counseled, prayed for and comforted many people dealing with cancer. This website is too small to list everything she learned throughout her battle with cancer, but know that when you work with this Realtor, you are working with someone who is willing to fight for your dreams just as she had to fight for hers!

Since that period, Heather has spent valuable time with her family, riding horses and working toward her ultimate dream of owning a dude ranch and convention center. While searching for that perfect spot throughout the Rocky Mountain States, Heather had a difficult time finding a realtor that could understand her dream. Many agents would not return phone calls, ask enough questions or find out what was really needed. After having a property purchase fail because of inexperience with real estate and not hiring an agent, Heather decided it was time for a different approach. She decided the best strategy to reach her dreams would be to gain an education related to real estate. It was then that she started her transformation from an inexperienced, uneducated dreamer to an on-her-way-to-the-top real estate agent (and future dude ranch owner). During the spring of 2006, she worked through the required training and received her Utah real estate license. She has not stopped moving forward since!

Heather is very involved with her real estate and home communities. During the time Heather and her family were going through the cancer surgeries and recovery, many people showed how much they cared and she never forgot the meals, the rides to the doctors, or the house cleanings people gave. They were so full of kindness, compassion and willingness to help. In return, she feels a strong desire to give back to her community and help others, which she achieves through her involvement with Disaster Relief, Boy Scouts, her sons’ school library, church programs and the Baptist Concern Center/Food Bank.

Within real estate, Heather works on the Public Relations team for Weber and North Davis Realtors and heads up subcommittees within that team. Some of those activities include county fair booths and the Christmas Tree Festival fundraisers. Over the past year, Heather has worked hard to join the top 12% of real estate agents to earn the honored designation of attaining her Accredited Buyer’s Representative Certificate. This designation involves a rigorous process involving multiple classes and tests, as well as a monitoring process on buyer transactions.

So what makes Heather Smith the best real estate agent in the business for you? It’s all of the above plus her attention to detail; a heart that expands with each client whose needs she helps fulfill, and a never-give-up attitude. She loves making her client’s dreams come true and giving them those extra-special considerations, even after the transaction may be completed. Heather’s keen eye enables her to walk her clients around the pitfalls of real estate, and her ability to thoroughly predict and elicit details of the transaction give her clients a gratifying experience. Heather’s clients are reaping the benefits every day. After all, that’s what being the best real estate agent is all about.
 

Testimonials

"Extraordinarily, I've never met Heather Smith in person. But the impact she's had on my life has been phenomenal. Heather entered our lives in October 2007, at a time of great transition and turmoil for my family. Residing in Oklahoma, my family unexpectedly discovered that my 89-year-old grandmother was hospitalized and could no longer provide for her physical and mental needs. We needed to move her from Ogden, UT to OK as quickly as possible. Which meant, among many things, that we needed a real estate agent to sell my grandmother's house, and we needed to expedite the transaction from Oklahoma. God graced us with Heather Smith. Heather, having a grandmother of her own in an assisted living center, related to our situation and empathized with the emotional state and extraordinary circumstance we were in. She stepped up to the demands necessary to sell a house riddled with mold, foundation leaks, and plumbing issues, and did so in a way that was professional and amenable. She turned what could have easily been a complicated and drawn-out affair into a pleasurable business transaction that left us feeling confident, assured, and thrilled that we were able to sell my grandmother's home at a competitive price and in record time. I will always be grateful to Heather, for she was an integral component in bringing my family together, giving us peace of mind during our time in distress, and blessing us with her knowledge, experience, and personal relationship."
