About Real Talk with Keith Smith

Keith Smith is a United States Marine and the host of Real Talk With Keith Smith on The I Love CVille Network, alongside Jerry Miller. The show is a live conversation about real estate, business, and civic life in the greater Charlottesville area, airing Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

Service is the through-line. Keith is a son and grandson of New York City firemen and United States Navy veterans. He spent the first half of the 1980s attached to U.S. embassies overseas. That same instinct, show up, do the work, take care of people, is how he talks about homes and the market.

Through YES Realty Partners, Keith and his team work with buyers, sellers, and investors across Charlottesville, Albemarle, and the surrounding counties. This page is the simple place to subscribe, request a CMA, or ask for a consult. No listing spam. No pressure.

FAQs

What is Real Talk With Keith Smith?

A live show on The I Love CVille Network with Keith Smith and Jerry Miller. They talk Charlottesville-area real estate, local business, and the civic issues that shape the market. Episodes land on YouTube; this page is how you subscribe and get in touch.

What is a CMA, and how is it different from an online estimate?

A Comparative Market Analysis uses recent nearby sales, active listings, and the condition of your specific property. Automated tools miss acreage, updates, view, HOA rules, and thin-comp neighborhoods. Share your address and we will put a local set of comps in front of you.

Do I have to be ready to buy or sell?

No. The consult is free and no-pressure. Plenty of people start with a market question, a timing question, or a CMA they are not acting on this month.

What if I am looking at investment properties?

Say so on the form. Keith and the team work residential, commercial, and land, including investment conversations. Tell us the asset type and the area you are watching.

What do I get if I subscribe?

A weekly email on the greater Charlottesville area market: what moved, what we are watching, and a short read you can finish. It is not a listings blast.

Does any of this cost something?

The newsletter, the CMA request, and the consult are free. If you later hire the team to buy or sell, that is a separate conversation with a real agreement, not a surprise fee for filling out this form.
