    About Barbara Schmal

    I have had a love for real estate all my adult life. My father built homes and I was always helping him, so I decided to obtain my real estate license and help people to get their dream homes. I became a realtor for Indiana and Illinois in 1990 and worked with McColly Better Homes and Gardens from 1990 to 1998. I had great mentors and learned much about the real estate market for existing homes and new construction. I moved to Florida in 1998 and started rehabbing homes in the Clearwater area. I enjoyed taking tired sad homes and making them come alive once again. When I completed a house, I needed to find a family to make the house a home. I went back to real estate state school to get my Florida Real Estate License. I received my license in 2012 and I continued to take classes so I can be the best to make sure I provide the best customer service possible. I received the GRI designation (Graduate Realtor Institute), RSPS certification (Resort and Second-Home Property Specialist), and PSA certification (Pricing Strategic Advisor). Received my Brokers License in 2016, and I have been a Florida Real Estate Instructor since 2014. I was awarded the Five Star Professional Award for Tampa Real Estate Agent 2018. In 2020 I received the CAM License (Community Association Manager License). I am a Florida Certified Real Estate Instructor and own a Real Estate Training School. In the past, I taught real estate licensing classes for Bob Hogue and the Tampa School of Real Estate. I was born in Harvey Illinois and at age 13 moved to South Holland, Illinois where I lived for 25 years. I graduated in 1970 from Thornridge High School, in Dolton Illinois, home of the Falcons. Then in 1990, I moved to Crown Point Indiana, and back to Dyer Indiana in 1994. Owner and Certified Real Estate Instructor for Real Estate Training School. I offer real estate Pre-License, Post License, and Continue Education Courses. These courses can be taken via Livestream, or Online. https://realestatetrainingschool.com Phone: 727-386-4862 Email: [email protected] My other passion is decorating cakes. I love to use my talents in creating specialty cakes and cupcakes for any occasion. I lobbied to get the Cottage Food Law passed and on July 1, 2010, Governor Scott signed it into law. This law allows people who have a baking or cooking passion to have a home-based business and sell to the public.

    I originally contacted the listing agent on a house that was sold. When she declined our request and passed us on to Barbara, it was the best thing that could have happened to us. Barbara stands out in the field of real estate with a persistence and a willingness to think about your needs in different ways. She learned what we were looking for and included alternate options that would fit our needs in a variety of ways. Plus her overall responsiveness was unheard of to us in our dealings with other real estate agents. She was constantly in touch with us and if I emailed her a question, there was not a time of day that she didn't respond, even when I knew her plate was full.Unfortunately, we drastically changed our house finding area and were unable to use Barbara all the way to finish, but she's still keeping an eye on the market for us and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone. Really wonderful to work with!

    My husband and I had the pleasure of picking the right agent for helping us find a house. We know exactly what we are looking for and Barbara has the patience to deal with us while we proceed to ask her tons of questions. I am sure we will be deciding soon which home we will be purchasing. If youare looking for a great agent I recommend Barb!
