Who We Are

“We are the Realtors who know the lake community by heart.”

Luxury Lake Oconee is a full service real estate group of experienced, knowledgeable, local Realtors committed to helping clients navigate any size transaction in residential and commercial real estate. With years of combined experience in Lake Oconee real estate, a strong network in the community and an extensive marketing plan, the firm consistently seeks to raise the bar in customer satisfaction.

Ted and Riezl have unparalleled experience in residential and commercial real estate and in delivering maximum value with luxury service to every price point available at Lake Oconee. Joining forces has been tossed around the Baker household for several years, and with Riezl’s growing resale business, the dream finally became reality. “We know that collaborating and combining resources will result in a more successful and satisfying experience for Buyers and Sellers and our team members,” said Riezl.

Riezl continues to focus her efforts inside the subdivisions of Reynolds Lake Oconee, Reynolds Landing and Great Waters, where she was consistently one of the top agents for over 20 years. “I know the community well and have sold many properties more than once,” stated Riezl. “My years of experience and understanding of the market are keys to providing superior service to my clients,” she added. Riezl was ranked in the top 5 in total sales production for all of Lake Oconee in 2018 ($30.5M) and 2019 ($26.2M).

The couple relocated to Lake Oconee in 1997 and have been part of many positive changes in the area, “Our family is fortunate for the opportunity to serve alongside great leaders of our community and are grateful for the chance to play a small role when called upon,” Ted remarked. Ted and Riezl founded the Lake Oconee Food and Wine Festival in 2010 to benefit education in the area. Riezl served as Chair of the St.Mary’s Good Samaritan Hospital Foundation Board and is currently on the Hospital Foundation Board of Directors, was Past President of the Lake Country Board of Realtors and is currently a Board Director for the Oconee Performing Arts Society. Ted served as co-chair for the Lake Oconee Academy Capital Campaign, currently serves as Chair for the Greene County Board of Elections and Registration, and is President-Elect of the Lake Country Board of Realtors. The couple is a member of Christ Our King and Savior Catholic Church and are the proud parents of Stuart (17) and Remi (13). “We are grateful to live and work in this community and believe that we have the responsibility to give back,” stated Ted.

What our Clients are Saying

“In a niche market, experience is invaluable.”

“We have bought and sold 9 houses and based on our experience we would classify Riezl Baker as a super star among real estate agents. Her knowledge of the markets, consumer preferences coupled with superb social media skills generated a lot of awareness which eventually led to a solid offer. The attention and follow up we received was outstanding! She is a major asset to the local community and serves on various important boards and committees. Working with Ron Barden, her assistant, was like working with Riezl, and he is a major asset to her team. If you are looking for an entry level home or a multi-million dollar lake house, Riezl should be your first contact.”

Ted went well above and beyond the customer service provided by real estate agents — and exceeded our highest expectations — from beginning to end. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the market and provided first-rate communications throughout every aspect of the process. He gave us great advice, and is a genuinely great person to deal with. I cannot recommend him highly enough.”

“Riezl is truly a gem in the real estate world. She is exceptionally educated, friendly and easy to communicate with, and her impressive and extensive marketing strategies sell homes. Riezl is a very hands-on agent, full-service from start to finish. Her professionalism is admirable and her passion for finding the perfect home for her buyers is what keeps clients coming back to her again and again! I look forward to the next time we sell or purchase a home. Riezl is the only person I plan to call.”

“I have been in real estate development for 40 years. I decided to retire to Reynolds Lake Oconee. I contacted Ted Baker to assist me in finding my property. I could not have been more fortunate in selecting Ted. His knowledge of the area and influential people made my selection much easier, and satisfying. I highly recommend anyone looking to buy or sell real estate in Georgia, should contact Ted Baker for the best representation possible.”

“We couldn’t be happier with our decision to use Riezl Baker and Luxury Lake Oconee Real Estate Group. From the moment we engaged with Riezl and her team, we received, among other things, knowledgeable, professional, and timely service. I cannot recall one occasion when we reached out to Riezl for anything; she and her team proactively engaged with us to ensure all of our questions were answered. This not only happened pre-sale, it happened post sale. Our home sold within 24 hours. I wouldn’t consider using anyone else in the future.”
