Marie Leist-Smith

Helping people move forward—literally and figuratively—is at the heart of what I do.
As an award-winning Cincinnati Realtor®, I specialize in making the buying and selling process feel seamless, strategic, and even enjoyable. I also specialize in helping clients transition homes—whether that means downsizing, upsizing, or navigating life’s next chapter with confidence.
Whether it’s preparing a home for market, negotiating the best deal, or guiding first-time buyers, I’m there every step of the way. I’m proud to have a trusted team of experts—from stagers to contractors to lenders—who support every phase of the process to ensure a smooth and successful experience.
My background in nursing and education means I listen closely, advocate fiercely, and always keep your goals at the center of every decision.
