Shirley Smith, Realtor

Shirley Smith, Realtor Always loving a challenge, Shirley is a Real Estate agent diving head first into the property market I love everything about Real Estate! Thinking about selling?

As a native Californian, I purchased my first property when I was 19 years old. Having a knack for remodeling, I continued to purchase and project manage several renovations in the USA and Australia, where I lived for many years. Not only professionally, but personally I understand firsthand everything it takes to relocate to a new city, state or even country! My former career as a psychotherapist

, executive coach and best-selling author of five books, provided me with solid negotiation skills, as well as the ability to really listen. I know how to ask the right questions to draw out what people truly need and desire in a home or investment property and accentuate the key features to focus on in selling a property for maximum profit. Living in Coronado, the two markets I specialize and work in are Global Luxury and Military Relocation. I have certifications in both and have achieved the Sterling Award for the past two years being in the top 15% of sales Internationally. I have personally built and purchased luxury homes, as well as helped many clients do the same. Working with a high percentage of military clients is especially rewarding because I appreciate the values of integrity, trust and service. I would be honored to be the one to facilitate your real estate journey. I believe that buying and selling real estate is a unique part of your life. No two buyers are the same and no two sellers are the same. I can help you navigate the real estate market in San Diego and even globally regardless of what your current situation is. Being a Realtor with the Coldwell Banker network, I work with top realtors and first-class marketing throughout the USA and overseas! As a previous psychotherapist, I understand what drives people’s choices and their decision-making process. I use my skills to better understand my buyers and sellers, helping them get the results they want. Looking to invest or purchase? Let me help you find your next ideal home or investment property. I would love to help you sell your home for maximum profit. The right “price” is not the only important factor in selling your property. “Presentation” is equally vital. Let me show you the marketing and presentation skills I’ve used to “wow” buyers and maximize your results. My aim is to bring you resources to:

Preserve your wealth
Minimize your tax
Optimize your real estate “buy–sell–hold” timing

I’d love to hear from you and am happy to answer any real estate questions you may have. Associations

A Special Homecoming in Coronado.
After three years of watching the Coronado market, this one feels especially meaningful.
My clients first fell in love with Coronado when the husband was stationed here during his military service. Even after relocating to Virginia, their goal was always to return when the right home came along.
When 966 C Avenue became available, the timing and location aligned, and they knew it was the one. It was an honor to help them navigate the process and bring them back to the island they’ve always considered home.

From Coronado to greater San Diego and even global investment opportunities, real estate is always about finding the right fit at the right time. If you’re considering your next move, I’d be glad to help.

So grateful to be invited into my clients’ home, especially knowing I had the honor of helping them purchase their first home. Coming back less than a year later and seeing the space filled with friends, love, laughter (and a few disappointed Patriots fans) was a full-circle moment. I still remember when it was empty. Seeing it now, completely lived in, full of love and memories was the perfect reminder of what this process is really about.
If a move is on your radar, I’d be happy to be a resource.

Looking to buy a home in San Diego County but not in a rush? Here’s what I do to make the process simple:

• help you compare neighborhoods
• send quality options (not spam)
• tour homes on your timeline
• move quickly when the right one appears
• guide you through negotiations, disclosures, and closing

That’s exactly how I helped Greg & Andrea go from browsing to closing, smoothly.

Offer Accepted in Coronado!
And we just opened escrow!
For the past few years, my clients held onto the dream of coming back to Coronado. Life took them out of state, but their heart never left the island. And week after week, we stayed ready, watching the market closely, touring virtually, asking the right questions, and protecting their criteria until the right home appeared.
In the middle of the holidays, the door opened… and we moved!
If you’ve been telling yourself “I’ll wait until the new year” or “the holidays are too slow,” let this be your reminder: when you’re aligned and prepared, opportunities can show up in any season.
So grateful, so excited, and so proud of my clients. Welcome home.
If you’re thinking about buying or selling in the new year, reach out. Let’s align your vision with a real strategy, so the right opportunity can meet you.

“There’s only 9% corporate tax… and there’s no property tax and no income tax.”

In this clip, Shirley explains why Dubai and the UAE are so attractive for entrepreneurs and real estate investors: a pro-business environment, investor-friendly tax structure, and a focus on building a high-quality, world-class city.

If you’ve been thinking about taking your investing beyond the U.S., this is why Dubai keeps coming up in the conversation.

🎥 Full Dubai episode is on YouTube – link in bio.

Just recorded a quick video talking about something BIG happening in the UAE…

The new Wynn Al Marjan Island Resort is being built — and it’s opening the door to massive opportunity in this region.

I’ve been learning a lot about Dubai lately, and honestly… the growth here is unreal. This project is just one example of how fast things are moving and how many opportunities are opening up for business, investment, and lifestyle.

I’m excited to share more of what I’m discovering with you all.

If you’re curious about what this means or want to know what I’m seeing out here, DM me or text me and I’ll break it down for you.

✨ SOLD! ✨�This one is extra special — we had the honor of helping a dear friend sell her beautiful Oceanside home at 4170 Sitio Cielo (92057).
