Carmela Adams, Real Estate Agent

About Us

Since making Smith Mountain Lake my home in 2009, I’ve had a front-row seat to the growth and evolution of our beautiful community. Driven by a passion for local development and a "leap of faith" that turned into a lifelong career, I have spent the last 13+ years helping families find their place at the lake.

Now, as the Principal Broker of ML Realty, I combine deep local roots with top-tier industry designations. In 2023, I earned both the Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR®) and the Seller Representative Specialist (SRS)designations—prestigious honors that ensure my clients receive the highest level of advocacy, whether they are buying their first home or selling a waterfront estate.

I live in Moneta with my husband, our two youngest children, and our dog, Snickers. When I’m not leading the team at ML Realty, I’m enjoying the lake lifestyle I help my clients achieve. If you’re looking for a broker who blends local heart with professional grit, I’d love to collaborate with you.

I am always honored by your referrals and look forward to helping you start your next chapter.
