2023 Director
Phaedera "Faye" Smith
EXiT Landmark Realty
8222 Schultz Road, Suite 100
Clinton, MD 20735
Licensed for 16 years in Maryland, I have been a licensed REALTOR® since August, 2005 and a member with PGCAR the entire time. I currently serve as the 2020 - 2021 Chair for the Community Service Committee. I was also the Chair for the Community Service Committee the last three years. In the 2016 - 2017 term I served as the Vice-Chair for The Community Service committee as well as a Scholarship committee member. I have served as a member on the Community service committee for several years prior to what has already been listed. While licensed, I have served on the Property Management Committee here at PGCAR as well.
I am a Maryland REALTORS® 2021 Leadership Academy graduate.
I am committed to helping others and to giving back in ALL aspects of my life. At the end of 2018, I adopted one of the local Elementary Schools in my community and began building what I hope to be a long-term community relationship. I was able to co-host a parent empowerment evening, where I spoke on home ownership (of course), but I also bought in a financial advisor to help educate them on various topics. I collected and used my own funds to help fund Thanksgiving Day baskets for needy school families, for gloves, hats, socks at the request of the community liaison. I also sponsored and obtained sponsors for their annual Spring Fling event, in which I provided face painting, balloon character making, an Easter Bunny appearance, gave out Easter candy boxes, etc as well as housing information to the attendees.
I have been on the board for my community HOA and serve as the Community Liaison since March, 2020. I have taken and continue to take several continuing education courses to strengthen my knowledge in our profession and to grow as an individual. I have also recently completed the necessary requirements to be able to apply for my ABR and SRS designations.
I am a dual career agent, and I am a Lead Budget Analyst with the Department of Justice, Executive Office for US Attorneys, for our team and am often expected to fill in for our supervisor. I often provide training, mentorship and peer assistance to my teammates and our contractors, so I am very accustomed to being a leader and am confident that I will do well in this role.
