For Raymond Smith and Debbie Hrabe, “Vintage” is a recurring theme, from the classic cars they have restored and their shared love of horseback riding to their old-fashioned commitment as one of the area’s leading real estate teams.

“I guess you could say we like the classics,” Raymond says. Together he and Debbie have bought and restored several cars, including the gem of their collection, a vintage 1922 Maxwell. Then there are horses, perhaps the most traditional of all pastimes. Both have been riding for more than thirty years. During that time, Debbie has shown horses and Raymond has hosted horse shows with his wife, Cathy, who owns and runs a local horse ranch.

Classic Values
With such a love for keeping the vintage spirit alive, it’s no wonder Raymond & Debbie love living along the Central Coast. From the distinctive old-town charm of Arroyo Grande’s “Village” to the vast acreages and farms spread throughout the region, they love that people here preserve timeless values of family and community, while continuing to embrace the future. “When you have the ocean, the hills, the vineyards, the farms and all of the unique cities themselves, it’s hard to imagine a better quality of life than this,” Debbie says.

As one of the area’s leading real estate teams, Raymond & Debbie combine these traditional values and modern touches to provide the most comprehensive real estate service around. With one shared vision of customer service and two unique perspectives, they have helped many people throughout the Central Coast make the most of their home buying and selling opportunities.

To Debbie, nothing is more important than the time she spends with her four kids, from teaching them to ride horseback to evenings around the family piano.
