  • Episode 78: Sandbar Estates Developer, Paul Earnhart
    Sandbar Estates on South Padre Island is an 11-acre development that spans from Highway 100 to the Gulf of Mexico. It is an exclusive, gated community offering 15 proposed luxury, gulf-front homes for sale.


    One homesite is 75-feet wide and approximately 1-acre in total area. The home is the award-winning, Southern Living Coastal design โ€œSt. Helenaโ€ floor plan which features up to 4,200 square feet of living space, 4-bedrooms, 4-bathrooms, 2 car garage, and decks overlooking the waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

    The developer, Paul Earnhart, has spent his entire 45-year career in construction, real estate sales, and resort hospitality, primarily in Florida. While Texas does not require licensing of builders, Florida does, and the owner achieved the level of Certified Builder. This allowed him to construct all residential types and commercial buildings up to three stories. Being from Florida, awareness of the special building requirements for oceanfront homes along the Gulf is rooted in decades of experience, engineering and construction plans for the homes at Sandbar Estates to be far in excess of the highest standards that the state of Texas requires for coastal properties.

    The Man Himself, Mr. Gary Bale! In his FIRST MONTH, Gale pended 3 contracts for nearly $1 million! Winner of the Script Certification Challenge, Gary crushes the phone to go through clients' objections like a warm knife through butter!

    Tune in today as Gary shares his TIPS, TRICKS, and TACTICS as a NEW AGENT to blow away the competition! Originally from the suburbs of Detroit, Gary started his retail career working for a local TV and appliance store at the age of 16. In his 35+ years in retail, he moved all over the United States, living in six states and fifteen different homes.
    In that time, Gary worked as a salesman on the floor to a senior executive of two fortune 500 companies: CompUSA and Borders Books. About seven years ago, Gary's wifeโ€™s parents became sick, and it became clear he and his wife needed to take care of them. Along with their two children, the family moved to Frisco, Texas, after living in Los Angeles for several years, to care for them. This move to the Dallas area sparked a lot of change in the Bale family. As most retailers have consolidated and gone out of business over the years, Gary was looking for my next career move. After moving to six different states and living in fifteen homes, he had seen the good, the bad, and the ugly when it comes to real estate. While Gary is still relatively new to the real estate industry, it was a natural progression from his 35+-year retail career. Gary enjoys absolutely every bit of working in real estate, from the home buying to the selling progress. Working with clients each day has been a joy for Gary, who especially enjoys getting to know clients and learning what they are searching for in their perfect new home, next investment property, or simply, the next chapter of their lives. He is just as excited for his clients when they find their new perfect home, as they are. Gary's extensive career in retail has equipped me with the communication and negotiation skills as well as the meticulousness and honesty necessary to be a successful realtor. As for the Bale family, Gary and his wife will be celebrating their 35th wedding anniversary this September. They have two children, a son, and a daughter. Both are in the process of earning graduate degrees and Gary and his wife could not be prouder of them! While Gary's family will tell you his only hobby is working, he does enjoy taking our 5-year-old English Cream Retriever for more walks than any dog could possibly need, as well as family ski trips. Gary can confidentially say he has taught every member of my family how to ski and now they all are almost better than him!
