Shelly Gilbert

I'm Shelly Gilbert, a REALTOR® with Bellator Real Estate's Orange Beach office, serving buyers and sellers throughout Alabama's Gulf Coast. I have a genuine passion for real estate and take pride in providing my clients with knowledgeable, responsive, and personalized guidance through every stage of the buying and selling process.

Before beginning my career in real estate, I worked as a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA), where precision, attention to detail, and caring for people were essential every day. Those same qualities are at the heart of how I approach real estate today. My interest in property and investing began with my father, a skilled builder and real estate investor, and grew through my own experience owning investment properties.

After relocating from Lake Charles, Louisiana, to Alabama's Gulf Coast, I turned that lifelong interest into a career in real estate. Today, I work with buyers and sellers across the residential and condo markets, with particular experience in coastal properties, vacation homes, investment properties, new construction, and 1031 exchanges. Whether I'm helping someone purchase their first home, find the perfect beach property, evaluate an investment, or sell a property, my goal is to provide the information and guidance they need to make confident decisions.

My clients know me for being detail-oriented, responsive, and committed to protecting their interests throughout the transaction. I believe real estate is about more than getting to the closing table—it's about understanding what matters to each client and helping them achieve their financial and lifestyle goals.

Outside of real estate, I love the coastal lifestyle that brought me to this area. I enjoy spending time at the beach with my family, traveling, playing sports, and making the most of life along the Gulf Coast.
