About Earl

Earl T. Sheats, Associate Broker with Long & Foster Real Estate in Salisbury, Maryland
Earl T. Sheats

I'm an investor first, an agent second — and that makes all the difference.

For over two decades, I've helped families, investors, and business owners find their perfect property on Maryland and Virginia's Eastern Shore. I became an Associate Broker with Long & Foster in 2005 because I wanted to offer my clients something more — deeper expertise, sharper negotiation, and the kind of guidance that only comes from truly knowing a market inside and out.

Here's what sets me apart: I'm an active real estate investor myself. I analyze cap rates, spot value-add opportunities, and know what separates a smart investment from a money pit. When I advise you to walk away from a deal, it's because I wouldn't buy it myself. When I say a property has potential, I mean it — because I see the same opportunities I look for in my own portfolio.

Whether you're searching for a family home in Salisbury, a commercial space in Ocean City, or an investment property with strong returns, I bring the same honesty and hustle I'd want if I were on your side of the table. My reputation is built on straight talk and results that last — that's why people keep coming back and referring their friends.

🏡

Residential Real Estate

In a competitive market, you need an agent who does more than just open doors. I help you craft winning offers, spot red flags during inspections, and negotiate terms that protect your interests. I know every neighborhood on the Shore — from hidden gems to areas to avoid.

🏢

Commercial Properties

The right location can make or break your business. I help you evaluate foot traffic, zoning restrictions, lease terms, and growth potential. From retail storefronts to office space, I'll find you a location that supports your success — not just fills a vacancy.

📊

Investment Properties

Let's talk cap rates, cash flow, and value-add opportunities. As an active investor myself, I analyze deals through a business lens — helping you build a portfolio that generates real returns, not just properties that tie up capital.

🤝

Short Sales & Foreclosures

These transactions are a maze of bank paperwork, tight deadlines, and uncertainty. I provide a clear, steady hand to navigate the complexity — whether you're a buyer seeking value or a homeowner who needs an experienced advocate during a difficult time.

Earl made the entire process feel easy. He knows the Eastern Shore better than anyone and always had our best interest at heart. We couldn't have found our home without him.

— The Mitchell Family, Salisbury MD

As a fellow investor, I appreciate Earl's analytical approach. He helped me find a duplex with solid cash flow that I would have missed on my own. He understands the numbers — not just the emotions.
