Meet Carrie

I’m Carrie Smith with Krutz Properties. I live in Fort Plain and help buyers and sellers across Montgomery, Fulton, Herkimer, and Schoharie counties.

Before real estate, I spent nearly 30 years as a hairdresser and colorist. Health issues meant stepping away from color chemicals, so I pursued something I’d wanted to do since I was young. I still cut hair and still love it.

I bring the same standards to real estate: honest expectations, careful questions, and clear explanations. Tell me what you’re hoping to buy or sell. We’ll figure out where to start.

Full disclosure: these are my thoughts. AI helped organize them. If you’ve ever heard me tell a story, you understand why. 😂
