Your Local Real Estate Team

Central Florida Realty Experts

At the Florida Heartland Team, we believe real estate is about more than just transactions—it's about community, roots, and helping you find your perfect home in Central Florida. Founded by long-time residents Rich Williamson and Todd Shultz, our brokerage is built on traditional hometown values, hard work, and a genuine love for the Lake Wales area.


When you work with us, you are working with neighbors who understand the local housing market inside and out. Both Rich and Todd have spent years building trusted relationships across the region, actively serving with the Lake Wales Area Chamber of Commerce, local arts initiatives, and community conservation efforts. We care deeply about the future of the Florida Heartland, and that dedication shines through in how we guide our clients through buying and selling residential property.


While we believe in a friendly, handshake-style approach to business, we also back it up with a powerhouse marketing engine. Every home we list gets the absolute best presentation, featuring professional photography, beautiful drone footage, and Zillow 3D tours, paired with smart, targeted online marketing to find the right buyers. We even offer unique seller perks like comprehensive home valuations, home warranties, and professional deep cleaning services.


Whether you are looking to buy your first house, sell a family property, or relocate to our beautiful area, the Florida Heartland Team is here to offer honest guidance, clear communication, and a friendly face every step of the way.

RICH WILLIAMSON

Realtor® & Media Specialist

For Rich Williamson, Central Florida is more than just a real estate market—it is home. As a long-time resident, business owner, and dedicated Realtor® with the Florida Heartland Team, Rich believes in doing business the right way: with honesty, straightforward advice, and communication you can count on.


Rich works directly with buyers and sellers to make the real estate process as smooth and stress-free as possible. Behind the scenes, he also serves as the team’s Media Specialist. With a sharp eye for detail, Rich handles the professional photography, virtual tours, and drone media for our property listings, ensuring every home we represent looks its absolute best to potential buyers.


If you live in the Lake Wales area, you have likely seen Rich out and about in the community. He is well known for his photography work documenting local charity events, galas, and community gatherings. Deeply rooted in the region, he serves as the official photographer for the Lake Wales Little Theater, is an active member of the Chamber of Commerce, and has dedicated countless hours volunteering for the Lake Wales Arts Council and Arts Festival. For Rich, helping clients succeed in real estate is just another way of serving the community he loves.

TODD SHULTZ

Managing Partner & Property Marketing Director

As the Marketing Director and co-founder of the Florida Heartland Team realty, Todd Shultz provides the digital engine that drives our clients’ success. Recognizing that a modern real estate market requires modern advertising, Todd partnered with Rich to build a team where agent expertise meets agency-level marketing.

While our agents focus on finding your perfect home or negotiating your sale, Todd ensures every property gets maximum, targeted digital exposure. As a seasoned digital marketing executive and the owner of Lake Wales Advertising, his career includes directing campaigns for prominent national brands like Coca-Cola, Chevron, and Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. Today, he brings that exact same high-level strategy to the Central Florida housing market, building custom property websites and running sophisticated outreach campaigns to get your home in front of the right buyers.

A long-time resident of Lake Wales, Todd is deeply invested in the community he calls home. When he isn't managing real estate marketing or national advertising accounts, he serves as the Treasurer for the Ridge Audubon Society and volunteers as a marketing consultant for the Lake Wales History Museum.

The Florida Heartland Team are proud members of the Lake Wales Chamber of Commerce & Economic Development Council
