Tommy Waters from Tim Smith Real Estate Group has one goal when it comes to both his business and personal life—to serve others with honesty and compassion. He believes that real estate is so much more than just closing a sale—it is listening to his clients, truly getting to know them, and assisting them in any way he can. His unwavering commitment to helping people realize their dream of living in beautiful coastal Orange County is what sets Tommy apart from other agents in the industry.

Tommy was raised in Texas and has been an oil & gas business owner for 21 years. As a natural born leader, Tommy was a perfect fit as the COO of a Texas oil and gas company that preceded his time in real estate. Through his years of work experience leading a team, he acquired skills that have proven to be invaluable as a real estate agent, including the ability to effectively communicate and negotiate, inspire others, and motivating himself to persevere and see things through from start to finish. He is easily able to simplify the process for his buyers and sellers to provide a seamless experience while always being straightforward and never skirting the truth.

Tommy’s advice for buyers and sellers alike is to be patient and realize that finding the perfect home or selling your current one takes time. “Don’t settle for anything less than what you truly want,” he says.

In his free time, Tommy loves to be outdoors, especially when running on the beach or hanging out with his 4 grandkids. He also volunteers for special community events such as beach cleanups, donates time at his church, and mentors younger married couples with his wife.

“Home is where I find great comfort and peace. Home is my sanctuary."
