Takyla Smith Hill

After two great experiences in buying homes, she wanted to bring that same joy to as many people as she could; so in June 2017 Takyla became a REALTOR®. In that short amount of time, she was able to help numerous individuals and families sell and buy homes (not just “houses” but homes). Most were First Time Home Buyers and providing that experience sparked a flame that she just could not let die down. It was through this fire and joy from helping people, that Key Realty Solutions eventually came to be.

For Takyla, relationships are KEY and they are the foundation that the company is built upon. A native of New Jersey, Takyla has made Rocky Mount home since 1993, when she moved to Nash County, her grandparents’ hometown. She attended Nash-Rocky Mount Public schools and is a 2000 graduate of Northern Nash High School. She earned an Associate’s Degree in Business Administration from Nash Community College in 2000.

Takyla’s expertise extends beyond real estate. She has also been a local, independent insurance agent specializing in life and health protection since 2005. Under the umbrella of Key Insurance and Realty Solutions, LLC, Takyla can serve both needs in the community. She also is an active member of the Nash-Rocky Mount Rotary Club since 2009, and has served as the President Elect and as the Publicity Chair. Takyla is a 2008 graduate of Leadership Rocky Mount; has served on the Community Fellows Advisory Committee for the Down East Partnership for Children; and has been a dedicated member of local PTAs.
Takyla’s maiden name is Smith but she was married to Art Hill in September 2019 and they have a blended family of four children.

I was a first time home buyer and Takyla made my experience an enjoyable one. I never felt like I was being a bother even with my indecisiveness, she was very knowledgeable about the homes, area and could always answer my questions about the home buying process.
