Coldwell Banker’s BRIDGET SMAGALA has been in the home buying, selling, and developing business for more than 25 years. First, earning her degree in Accounting and CPA in 1991, followed by years of buying, developing, rehabbing, converting, and renting single and multi-family homes with her husband, Bridget has become an expert in the field of real estate. Having personally moved from the Midwest to Florida, she hones her skills, helping local buyers find their next home in Naples, Florida.

What is your business style?

I offer an award-winning experience in an approachable and personalized style for each of my clients. I personally understand what it takes to move from another state to Naples, Florida and what a fabulous lifestyle Southwest Florida offers. When people buy for the first time in Florida, they often need a painter, cleaning service, electrician, and other trades. I am intentional about maintaining relationships with trusted associates. I stage my listings prior to professional photography so the features of the home are properly marketed for my clients.

What is your best networking advice?

Deepen your ties with your community. As a boutique realtor with a great group of associates and an experienced broker, I surround myself with positive people that I can learn from and expand my sphere of influence. I am constantly learning about all the new developments, golf course availability and fees, restaurants, and improvements in the community.

What advice would you give to future Power Women?

Invest in your relationships with your clients and treat transactions as if they are your own. Relationships do not end at the closing table. If you see a great business opportunity, reach out to an old client.
