Testamonials

Shawn, I've ben watching your growth in our business & you are clearly becoming a player.  It's great to see the next generation of Schmidts continue to grace the real estate industry.  Keep focused, work hard, and always keep the clients' best interest ahead of your own.  Mike Street, long time and well respected Traverse area real estate broker  (summer 2010)

Working with Shawn to sell our home was the best choice we could have made.  She was always available, had great ideas, followed up on every showing with advice & led us through every step of the process with ease; she is a dedicated, determined & diligent agent.  We couldn't be happier witah her service & were able to sell our home & purchase our dream home in less time than we expected.  Dr. Dan Madion and his wife Kara, sellers & buyers from Traverse City (June, 2010)

My trick is finally retaining a realtor who understands that market, price points, & the internet.  Shawn Smith of Coldwell Banker Schmidt is a cut above the rest.. she had 6 or 7 closings in the past few weeks.  She told us we could sell our home at our asking price if we wished to wait 14 months, and had empirical data to back it up.  If we wished to sell by year end she told us what to ask.  We sold in 3 weeks at 95% of that number to a couple from California who never stepped in the house.  The internet is where it happens these days.  She is a difference maker, knowledgable and professional.  Obviously, I highly recommend her.   Steve and Joan, Sellers from the peninsula in Traverse City.  (December, 2009)

I spent a year and a half, unsuccessfully trying to find a home with the services of two different brokers.  I always felt more like a burden than a client because of my modest budget.  I met Shawn by chance at an open house, and briefly explained my frustrations to her.  And while the house wasn't a fit in my search for a home, Shawn definitely was!  I am thrilled to have met her and could not be happier with the help and attention that she wholeheartedly provides.   Shannon (Buyer), from Traverse City  (summer, 2009)

Our experience selling our home with Shawn was fantastic.  In this time of uncertainly in the real estate world, we found Shawn to be knowledgable in answering all of our questions, as well as creative, professional and diligent in putting an otherwise difficult deal together.  Sarah & Andrew Shotwell (Sellers) from Leelanau County, February, 2009.

Shawn Smith makes buying or selling a home in the Grand Traverse region simple.  Her highly responsive work ethic, professional attitude and vast knowledge of the area provides you with the confidence you deserve when choosing the best Realtor.   Andrew & Kate (Sellers) from downtown Traverse City, January 2009.

Professional Background

 My professional background started in 1987, when I received my real estate license shortly after high school graduation.  I went on to receive a Bachelor of Science in teaching from Valparaiso University in Indiana, then taught middle school in South Bend.  From there, I moved to Lansing, Michigan where I taught 7th and 8th grade at St. Gerard and received a Masters Degree in Curriculum and Teaching from Michigan State University.  The call of the north continued, and my husband and I moved back home in 1995.  Having kept my Realtor license current all those years, I actively jumped into the world of real estate sales in 2005 and haven't looked back.  I received a Rookie of the Year award after my first full year of sales, and have been a multi-million dollar producer ever since, consistently placing in the top ten percent of local Realtors.  2010 was especially great year as I placed in the top 2% of the more nearly 500 Realtors in our region.
