Thomas Platt is a partner at Cashiers Valley Real Estate, serving buyers and sellers in Cashiers, Highlands, Sapphire, Glenville, and Lake Toxaway, North Carolina. With particular expertise in Lonesome Valley, he specializes in mountain homes, second homes, and homesites throughout the Highlands–Cashiers Plateau.

Thomas brings a concierge approach to real estate, combining local knowledge with personalized attention, discretion, and thoughtful communication. From helping buyers find the right community to guiding sellers through preparation, pricing, and marketing, he anticipates needs, manages details, and connects clients with trusted local resources. His commitment to service extends well beyond closing.

His approach is rooted in luxury hospitality, with experience at Atlanta’s Piedmont Driving Club and Four Seasons Hotel, followed by studies at Le Cordon Bleu and nearly a decade as a private chef and restaurant owner. After spending childhood summers and holidays in Cashiers, Thomas made the mountains his home in 2011. He joined Lonesome Valley as clubhouse manager before transitioning into real estate and ultimately becoming owner and broker-in-charge of Lonesome Valley Properties.

Today, Thomas combines that firsthand community experience with the personal service of a boutique brokerage, helping clients navigate mountain real estate with clarity and confidence.

Thomas and his wife, Stacie, owner of Rusticks Furniture and Accessories in Cashiers, live between Cashiers and Highlands with their family and three dogs. They enjoy hiking, days on Lake Glenville, gardening, traveling, and time with family and friends.
