Delivering crystal-clear lake guidance so buyers find fits and sellers find matches.
Jill Botos is a trusted real estate agent with Lake Homes Realty, specializing in lakefront and lifestyle properties across Lake Hartwell (GA & SC), Richard B. Russell Lake (GA & SC), Clarks Hill Lake, Strom Thurmond Lake, Lake Keowee, and Lake Yonah. Each of these lakes has its own nuances—some are Army Corps of Engineers lakes, while others are power company lakes—with rules and regulations that can vary widely.
Want a big-water view or a quiet, protected cove? Jill can find it. Prefer to be closer to the highway or tucked away in nature? She can help with that, too. Need a dock, or would you rather enjoy a pristine, untouched shoreline? Consider it done. Jill’s deep understanding of each lake’s unique characteristics allows her to expertly match clients with the perfect place to live, play, and enjoy their personal slice of paradise.
Licensed in both Georgia and South Carolina, Jill combines local insight, market expertise, and a genuine passion for lake living to help clients navigate the unique world of lake real estate with confidence and ease.
Born in Inkster, Michigan, Jill made her way to Georgia at a young age and grew up in a suburb outside Atlanta. After her previous company was acquired, she transitioned from senior management in the insurance software industry into real estate—where she discovered her true calling.
Jill began her real estate career in 2006, focusing on selling homes around Clarks Hill Lake. Valuable mentorship shaped her approach to selling, negotiating, and serving clients. Today, Jill knows the lakes in her market area like the back of her hand, making her a go-to expert for both buyers and sellers.
Her expertise has been consistently recognized. Jill has earned the prestigious Aqua Award from Lake Homes Realty seven years in a row (2019–2025). She also holds the Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR) and Pricing Strategy Advisor (PSA) designations.
Jill and her husband, Rick—along with their three dogs and two cats—enjoy the beauty of the lakes year-round. Whether boating, camping, or simply soaking in the natural surroundings, Jill’s love for the lake lifestyle shines through in both her personal and professional life.
She also values the family-like atmosphere at Lake Homes Realty, where agents support one another and share strategies for success. This collaborative environment allows Jill to provide exceptional service and help every client achieve their dream of lake living.
