About Amy

Amy Rose Smith is an Orinda REALTOR® and Partner at Village Associates who has represented buyers and sellers throughout Lamorinda (Lafayette, Moraga & Orinda combined) since 2010. She has closed more than 330 transactions totaling over $700 million in sales, including more than 240 in Orinda alone. By MLS sales volume, Amy was the #1 real estate agent in Orinda in 2025. She ranks #3 among Orinda agents over the past five years, the past ten years, and since 2010, and #7 across Lamorinda since 2010. In 2026 she ranks #3 in Orinda as of October, not including an additional $5 million in off-market sales. Her deepest experience is in Glorietta (71 sales), Orinda Country Club (67), and Sleepy Hollow and Orinda Downs (56). She has also sold homes in Orinda Woods, El Toyonal, Downtown Orinda, Ivy Drive, Del Rey, and Lost Valley. Her average sale price is more than $2.1 million.

Amy grew up in Orinda. She earned a Bachelor of Science from Brigham Young University and began her career in Private Wealth Management at Salomon Smith Barney, then worked at Goldman Sachs in New York and Los Angeles. She returned to Orinda in 2007 with her husband and three daughters, earned her real estate license in 2009, and began selling in 2010, in one of the most difficult housing markets in decades. Her finance background shapes how she prices homes, structures offers, and negotiates for clients in a high-value market.

Amy specializes in luxury homes, having sold 56 properties priced over $3 million in Orinda and Lafayette’s Happy Valley neighborhood. She also works with sellers preparing high-end homes for market, move-up buyers, buyers relocating to Lamorinda for its schools, and buyers and sellers who are right-sizing or downsizing. For sellers, the results are measurable: over her career, 83.3% of Amy’s listings sold within 30 days and 94.4% within 60 days, at an average of 101.8% of list price compared with the 100.6% MLS average. Her approach centers on finding the right fit, whether that means the right home, the right buyer, or the right timing. Amy has a 5.0-star rating from her clients on Google.

How Amy works

Amy’s clients get the precision of a finance professional and the insight of someone who has lived here most of her life. For sellers, that means careful pricing, thoughtful staging and marketing, and skilled negotiation. For buyers, it means access to on and off-market homes, thorough research and smooth transaction coordination from offer to keys.

Access built over generations

Lamorinda is a close-knit community, and many of the best homes change hands through relationships. As a partner at Village Associates, Amy is part of a firm whose inventory has been built through years of dedicated service and generations of trust. When you see her sign, it stands for that commitment.
