About
I am obsessed with providing great service and results to my clients. Please take a moment to read my Zillow reviews which are a testament to my reputation for being a committed, trustworthy, and an effective Realtor.

I am the #1 Coldwell Banker Realtor in the Carolinas celebrating over $100,000,000 in residential real estate sold since 2015. In 2019, I was named by RealTrends as one of the top 1000 agents in the entire country (#161).

As a listing agent, I aggressively utilize a variety of marketing strategies and have consistently delivered results in all price ranges, especially in the high-end SC Midlands. As a buyer's agent, I have extensive knowledge of the market, the neighborhoods, and I understand the need to keep on top of the search process to find and secure the best properties for my clients in a fast-paced market. Aside from helping sellers and buyers, I am a guest speaker across the Carolinas and serves as a mentor to real estate agents. In 2018, I sold more real estate in one year than any other Coldwell Banker agent or team in the Carolinas.

We’ve bought four houses over the years, and I can honestly say she is by far the hardest-working real estate agent we’ve ever worked with. From start to finish, we felt completely supported, and it was clear how much she genuinely cared about helping us find the right home.

We went through a couple of offers that didn’t work out, and through it all, she remained positive, encouraging, and reassuring. She never once made us feel bad about the time and effort spent on deals that fell through. Instead, she kept us motivated and reminded us that the right house was out there.

Laura is incredibly responsive, flexible, and efficient. She gets things done quickly, and if she doesn’t know the answer to something, she will work tirelessly until she finds it. On top of being exceptional at her job, she is genuinely kind and just a good human being. You can tell she truly cares about her clients, and that makes all the difference.

Laura is incredible at what she does, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly. If you’re looking for a real estate agent who will work hard, go above and beyond, and make sure you feel supported every step of the way, you will not regret hiring her!

Laura helped us purchase the perfect home for my mother recently and she was an incredible advocate and partner for her through the process from start to finish! She was always available and on top of every aspect of the deal from initial offer to closing. Thank you Laura we couldn’t have done it without you!

Laura was amazingly helpful and a real pleasure to work. My wife and I are from out of state and we were looking for a horse property that was rural enough to offer privacy and small town, but still within reasonable commute of a good-sized city (rural, but not too rural). Laura was able to help us identify a great small town that fit the bill and was still within an easy drive of horse trails and a city. Her equestrian knowledge was especially helpful in making our purchase successful.

We did not make this purchase easy for Laura. We had very specific property requirements, a strict budget, and no knowledge of the local area or the real estate process and laws of South Carolina. Laura was very responsive, easy to get in touch with, made multiple trips out to the property, and took videos to help answer all our questions. While always pleasant and cheerful to talk with, she was a great advocate for us as buyers and a good and tough negotiator. Laura was able to help us through some tricky negotiations right at the end to close the deal on our new home.

We hit the jackpot with Laura. She went above and beyond in helping to make our dream become reality, far exceeding our expectations. Thank you Laura!

We had such a great experience working with Ronnie Michel, especially as out-of-state buyers. From day one, he was extremely communicative, responsive, and made us feel completely taken care of throughout the entire process.

Ronnie was always punctual and present when we couldn’t travel to see new listings ourselves, and we always felt like he was truly advocating for us. He was incredibly thorough during inspections, asked the right questions, and made sure we understood what we were getting into. He also connected us with great, reliable vendors—from plumbers to painters—which made the process of getting the house ready so much easier.

He was there with us through closing and consistently went above and beyond to make what could have been a stressful experience feel manageable. Ronnie is knowledgeable, dependable, thorough, and, most importantly, just a genuinely down-to-earth guy. We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home!

We had such a great experience working with Laura Plyler while helping our son purchase his home. We had actually found the house ourselves, but from the moment we sent it to her, she took it from there—getting us in the door quickly and making the entire process incredibly easy.
She was always responsive, answered every question promptly, and kept everything moving smoothly from the showing all the way through closing. Buying a home can be stressful, especially when you’re helping your child through the process, but she made it feel simple and seamless.
We truly appreciated her responsiveness, professionalism, and how easy she was to work with. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!
