Candy Smothers

Background
Born and raised in St. Louis, I bring deep local roots, firsthand knowledge, and genuine care to every client I work with. I’m a graduate of St. Charles West High School and attended the University of Missouri–St. Louis. Having lived throughout both St. Charles County and St. Louis County, I offer real, lived-in insight into the neighborhoods, communities, and lifestyles that make the St. Louis area such a great place to call home.

Real Estate Experience
I’ve been in real estate since 2018, after a highly successful career in direct sales where I built my reputation on trust, strong relationships, and results. I listen closely, communicate clearly, and always put my clients first.

One of my specialties is new construction. I worked for a local builder and helped more than 350 families successfully build their dream homes. From choosing the right builder and homesite to navigating design decisions, timelines, and contracts, I guide my clients through every step of the building process. Call me a nerd, but I actually enjoy reading the topography maps and muddying my boots!

Integrity is my top priority. I listen, learn and feel that clear communication is the most important part of the real estate transaction. I pride myself on being quick to respond and readily available to my clients. My motto: If better is possible, good is not enough.

Life Outside of Work
When I find my OFF button; you’ll often find me taking a walk while listening to a favorite Audible book or podcast. Family means everything to me. I’m the proud mom of two daughters, Madison and Acie, and an eleven-year-old grandson, Max. Max and I share a love for animals and make frequent visits to the St. Louis Zoo.

Forest Park holds a special place in my heart. Whether I’m enjoying a solo walk or catching up with a friend, it’s one of my favorite places to unwind. Living in University City makes it easy to visit.

In the evenings, you might find me snuggled up on the couch with my dog, Emmy, getting lost in a period drama, hooked on a great crime story, or cheering on a football game. My interests definitely keep things interesting.

Travel is something I look forward to every year, especially a relaxing beach getaway. I also make regular trips to Dallas to visit one of my daughters, which is always fun…Though I firmly believe there should be a rule that our children can’t move away!

I’m proud to call St. Louis home and truly appreciate all it has to offer: beautiful parks, historic architecture, local coffee shops, museums, live music, and a fantastic restaurant scene. As a true foodie, I’m always excited to discover a new place.

Whether you’re buying, selling, or building, I would love the opportunity to be a part of a very important part of your journey.
