Powell Smith

Realtor®

Powell “Smitty” Smith was born and raised in Kentucky and an ardent UK fan, but he has come to love Leelanau County and all Michigan teams. He has lived in Leland full time since 1990. Smitty serves on the Board of the Leland Public Library and has done so for 10 years – he is devoted to its success. He is a hands-on volunteer whenever the need arises.

With years of construction and management in his background, it has proved to be the perfect basis for his real estate career. He earned his license in 2002 and joined Venture Properties that same year. Smitty has a quiet, yet a thorough way of selling – letting his clients feel and understand their purchase before he starts answering questions.  Then guides them to a comfortable closing.

His family includes two stepchildren, 5 grandchildren and his wife Nell. He enjoys golf, boating and being with family and close friends. In addition to his real estate activities, he manages his wife’s art business.
