About Rachael

Hi, I’m Rachael Smith – Your Trusted Partner in Real Estate! I grew up in Louisville, Kentucky, in a family rooted in kindness, respect, and honesty. My faith is the foundation of my life—guiding me to serve others with gratitude and heart. Real estate became my calling because it lets me walk alongside people during one of life’s biggest transitions—helping them find the right home or investment with care, strategy, and integrity. With over 10 years of experience as a top-producing agent in Big Bear and a degree in Management and Marketing, I bring deep market insight and a results-driven approach to every transaction. I’ve closed hundreds of homes across Big Bear and beyond, and as of mid-2025, I’ve taken 51 listings, closed 25 deals, and booked 125 client appointments—all in a slower market. I’m proud to have earned over 300 five-star reviews, a testament to the service, trust, and results I bring my clients. I also own and manage two Airbnb properties as a Superhost, which gives me a unique edge when helping clients buy or sell short-term rental homes with confidence. Outside of work, I’m a wife, mom, and adventurer. My three daughters—Addie, Cali, and Nora—are my greatest joy, and my husband, Andy, is my biggest cheerleader. We co-authored Transformed by Trouble, a Christian journal on Amazon that reflects our passion for faith and growth. Our Frenchie, Meatball, keeps things playful at home. I thrive on challenges—whether it’s climbing Mount Whitney, competing in Ironmans, or helping a client get top dollar in a tough market. I’d be honored to help you on your real estate journey. Let’s make it smart, smooth, and successful—reach out anytime!

Ali Grant-Shoemaker

About Ali

Fortunately, the mountains have always been my home. I was born and raised in South Lake Tahoe, California. Following my high school graduation, I decided to give the San Diego college beach life a try. After two years, I left the ocean behind and found another mountain town to call home. I graduated from CSU San Bernardino in 2011 with a degree in Communication. Although I had plans to work in the entertainment industry, my family's background in real estate led me to follow in their footsteps, and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I have lived in beautiful Big Bear since 2008 with my husband Clayton, whom I married in October 2013, and our twins Amelie and Peyton, born May 2017. Thankfully, this four season Southern California destination gives our family the opportunity to do the things we enjoy most. Wake surfing and skiing as a family are two of our favorites! I joined The Tim Wood Group in 2013 and had the opportunity to learn from some of the best intricacies of the Big Bear Real Estate market for over 11 years. In 2024, while remaining with ReMax Big Bear, I became an independent agent. Over the years I have had the privilege of helping hundreds of happy buyers and sellers, while also obtaining my broker's license in 2019. In addition to extensive market knowledge, I am committed to providing excellent customer service. I thoroughly enjoy making a personal connection with my clients and believe it sets me apart from other agents. Furthermore, I strive to make every transaction an enjoyable and smooth one, from start to finish and beyond. Whether it be selling your mountain getaway, finding your dream home or first home I look forward to helping you achieve your real estate goals in beautiful Big Bear! -Ali Grant-Shoemaker
