About Simone

Born in Avondale.
She sells all of
Birmingham.

Simone Carter has been selling homes in the greater Birmingham area since 2009. She grew up in Avondale — a neighborhood she watched transform — and has built her career on a simple premise: that knowing a city deeply is the only real competitive advantage a realtor has.

She has closed over 312 transactions totaling $148 million in sales volume, from first-time buyer condos in Crestwood to seven-figure estates in Mountain Brook. She works with buyers, sellers, and investors, and she never takes on more clients than she can serve well.

"I don't just show houses. I help people find where they belong — and that takes knowing more than the MLS."

How I Work

A process built around
you — not the commission.

No pressure. No rushing. No handing you off to someone else at a critical moment. Here is exactly what working with me looks like from first conversation to keys in hand.

Step 01
We Talk First
A real conversation — not a listing pitch. I need to understand your timeline, your priorities, your budget, and what home means to you before I show you a single property.
Step 02
Curated Search
I don't send you 40 listings and wish you luck. I send you five that actually fit — with my honest assessment of each one, including the things I don't love about it.
Step 03
Strategic Offer
15 years of Birmingham market data means I know what to offer, what to negotiate, and when to walk away. I have won multiple offer situations for clients who did not have the highest bid.
Step 04
Closed & Celebrated
I am there at closing, I stay in touch after, and I remain your real estate resource for life. Most of my business comes from past clients — and that is exactly how I want it.

The neighborhoods
I know by heart.

I have sold homes in every corner of Birmingham. These are the communities I know most deeply — their price trends, their personalities, and the things the MLS doesn't tell you.

Mountain Brook
Luxury · Established
Birmingham's premier suburb. Top-ranked schools, walkable villages, and homes that hold their value exceptionally well.
$480K – $3.2M · Avg. 14 days on market
Homewood
Family · Community
Downtown Homewood's walkable strip, excellent schools, and a neighborhood identity that buyers pay a premium for — and should.
$280K – $1.1M · Avg. 18 days on market
Vestavia Hills
Suburban · Growth
Consistent appreciation, great schools, and a wider variety of price points than Mountain Brook. Excellent value for the quality.
$260K – $1.4M · Avg. 20 days on market
Avondale
Hip · Investment
The city's most exciting neighborhood story. Buyers who came early have seen extraordinary appreciation. Opportunity still exists here.
$180K – $520K · Strong appreciation trend
Crestwood
Character · Value
Mid-century homes with real bones, a tight-knit community, and pricing that still makes sense for first-time buyers and investors.
$200K – $480K · First-time buyer favorite
Forest Park
Walkable · Cultural
Steps from the Birmingham Museum of Art, Five Points, and the best restaurant strip in the city. An underrated gem with upward momentum.
$195K – $560K · Rising rapidly
Hoover
Suburban · Schools
The practical choice that delivers on every measure — schools, amenities, price stability, and easy highway access across the metro.
$230K – $850K · Very strong school ratings
Trussville
Growth · Families
The metro's fastest-growing suburb. New construction, top schools, and a community feel that is genuinely difficult to find this close to a major city.
$240K – $780K · Highest growth rate

What my clients
actually say.

I don't choose the testimonials I display. These are direct quotes from Google reviews, all verified.

★★★★★

"We moved from Atlanta knowing nothing about Birmingham. Simone spent three weekends driving us through every neighborhood, explaining the trade-offs honestly, and never once pushed us toward anything outside our budget. We closed in 30 days and we are absolutely in love with this house."

★★★★★

"I was a first-time buyer who was terrified of the whole process. Simone explained every single step, was reachable every time I panicked, and got me into a Crestwood home at $15,000 under asking. She is worth every dollar of that commission — and then some."

★★★★★

"I've sold four investment properties over the years with different agents. Simone is in a different category. She priced our Mountain Brook home perfectly, had five offers in three days, and negotiated us $42,000 above the highest initial offer. She is genuinely exceptional."
