About Rachael Smith

Hi, I’m Rachael Smith – Your Trusted Real Estate Partner! Born and raised in Louisville, KY, I was taught the values of kindness, respect, and honesty. My faith is my foundation, and I strive to live with gratitude and love, bringing joy to others. Real estate is my calling because I love helping people find their perfect home or investment property while guiding them through one of life’s biggest decisions.

With 10+ years as a top agent in Big Bear, a degree in Management and Marketing, and hundreds of successful transactions, I provide market expertise, strategic planning, and a personal touch. As an Airbnb “Super Host,” I also help investors navigate income properties. My greatest joys are my family—my husband Andy, our 3 amazing daughters, and our playful French Bulldog, Meatball. Together, we’ve published Transformed by Trouble, reflecting our passion for faith and helping others.

Let’s make your real estate dreams a reality—call or message me anytime!

Ratings & Reviews

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value You can count on Rachael, whether buying or selling your property in Big Bear, CA. She helped us navigate the intricate world of buying a house and then selling the house after 3 years of ownership. She helped us negotiate for top dollars when we sold the house. I will definitely ask her help again the next time I buy a house in Big Bear.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Rachael is just the best! No question about it. We had a very complicated transaction that involved issues with the title, liens on the property, potential foreclosure of the home, and on and on. Rachael guided us every step of the way and helped the entire escrow process run as smoothly as possible. I recommend her to anyone I know looking to buy in Big Bear!
Natalie Tomasik
Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Rachael out performed my expectations on all levels. I was well informed on each and every turn of the sale. She was very pleasant when ever we spoke. I would not hesitate to do business with her again if I returned to Big Bear.

If you need a realtor in/around Big Bear, then you must use Rachael!!! She helped us with the sale of one home in the Moonridge area and then the purchase of another home as well. Very connected with the markets and we felt she was always looking out for our best interests.

Rachel is one of the best you will ever work with. She is competent, professional, and thorough. In addition, she is kind and fun to collaborate with. Great lady! I won’t use another realtor in Big Bear.
