Working with Shirley across multiple transactions the past few years, each encounter is marked by extraordinary levels of competence, steeped with attention to detail, and quickly invokes the comfort of an uncommon conscientiousness on your behalf. Her commitment to understanding your needs and her advocacy in finding real-estate solutions for you is simply unmatched.

Shirley helped us sell 2 properties, one cloud condo in Coronado, and a townhouse in La Jolla. Shirley was relentless in her efforts to sell even in a difficult market with higher interest rates. She brought in her handy-man to refresh some damage to the properties, and then staging these. Thanks to her efforts we were able to sell both properties in time to do a 1031 Exchange with the rental home we then bought. She always kept us well informed of all the events and transactions that were transpiring with these properties. THANK YOU Shirley !

I have had the pleasure of working with realtor Shirley Smith on three property deals, one buying and two selling! On each occasion Shirley brought expertise, determination, and formidable negotiation skills to the process. Her passion to accomplish the best possible outcome saved us money on the buy and made us money on the sells. She negotiated the price down on the buy and got more than the asking price on the sells. She is always willing to go above and beyond for her client and does it with heart! She is a joy to work with.

Shirley helped me purchase my first home as a single woman. This was daunting and she was a great support and advocate during the process. She was very good at explaining my options in the negotiation and walking me through the myriad of requirements, disclosures and forms I had to sign. I highly recommend Shirley for your next real estate transaction.

“Shirley is such a fabulous realtor! I am beyond blessed that I had her by my side investing in my first home. I have always wanted to live by the beach and Shirley helped make my dreams come true. She made the home buying process extremely easy by always looking out for my best interests. She always answered my calls and texts when I had questions. Shirley is extremely approachable, intelligent, enthusiastic, and so very kind. I highly recommend giving Shirley a call if you are buying a new home or selling.” Richard & Mary M. Buyers “Shirley is simply amazing! We were first time home buyers and had little information about the whole buying process. She helped us in every way possible and everything went smoothly! Thank you again, Shirley, for the time and effort you spent with us. Most of all, for making our first experience as easy as it was! Meeting you was a blessing indeed!“ Lou & Elinor M. Sellers & Buyers "If you want to sell your property and get a good price, call Shirley Smith. She is generous, determined and a good communicator, giving us frequent briefings about developments. You can count on Shirley to deliver!" Catherine R. Buyer "My husband and I worked with Shirley to purchase a home in Imperial Beach and really can't say enough good things about her. She is knowledgeable, approachable, personable, endlessly patient, and incredibly generous with her time (including mornings, evenings, and weekends over the course of several months). She answered every question and explained every form and every part of the process clearly and thoroughly. Buying a home in this market is challenging, but working with Shirley made it as painless and straight forward as possible. We highly recommend her." J.C. & Tong Buyers "Shirley did a fantastic job helping us with our first home purchase! She was very responsive and always available to answer any questions and provide much needed guidance. We bought a new construction home from a big builder and Shirley seemed to know exactly how to deal with the seller, negotiate and get what we wanted. From finding comparables, through negotiations of price and upgrades, scheduling closing, dealing with escrow and up to closing, her responses and initiatives were always prompt, thorough and accurate. Her energetic demeanor really inspired confidence, both in our purchase and that we chose the right agent. I hope we're in our new home for a long time, but if we were to move, I couldn't hesitate to work with Shirley again or give her anything but the highest recommendation." Megan L.

"I had an excellent experience working with Shirley Smith of Coldwell Banker West to purchase a residence in Imperial Beach. From the very beginning of the process, her excellent suggestions regarding mortgage financing, home inspection, and repair contractors contributed greatly to a smooth, hassle-free undertaking. Her advice and analysis throughout contract negotiations were outstanding. I was especially impressed with Shirley’s experience and familiarity with the San Diego beach real estate market, where she has lived and invested in Coronado and Imperial Beach. She has terrific insights into all details, large and small, of a major real estate investment in these communities."

"Shirley uses extraordinary techniques in marketing and is an expert negotiator. She sold our home in 3 days for over asking price in the middle of the Covid pandemic! Shirley also helped us relocate to another state and find our dream home there. Her service is “above and beyond” and we highly recommend Shirley and are so happy we chose her as our real estate professional!"

"We were looking for an investment property in beautiful Coronado but had some pretty specific criteria. Shirley was on the ball when it came to finding the properties that were a good match, and went above and beyond in referring excellent third party specialists. She was able to use her many local connections to find us a great contractor to review the property we were looking at and give us the vital information we needed to make a decision. She also spent many hours helping us find the best deals on mortgage rates with local banks, and her finance connections. She Was also just fun to work with and is a cheerful and helpful person. All this made the stress of making a large financial decision a lot easier as we really felt she was on our side and helping us do what was best for our situation. I highly recommend using Shirley Smith for any real estate needs in the Coronado area."

Shirley and her team were amazing partners in buying our new home in Coronado. They are highly communicative and knew exactly what we needed to do to craft a winning offer in this crazy market. Shirley felt like a friend from day 1 and she constantly made it feel like we were in this process together. Her negotiation skills are incredible and her network in the area has proven to be super helpful. She and her team go above and beyond to support their clients and we would highly recommend them for buying your next home! Thank you Shirley for a smooth transaction.
