David Schumacher, who passed away in 2006, began his real estate portfolio  in Hermosa Beach, California after taking a helicopter ride over the
city in 1960.  After finding success as an appraiser, David and his twin brother Paul collaborated on that business while buying properties in areas
where values were escalating.  This was the beginning a real estate fortune leading to his best selling book,
Buy and Hold: 7 Steps to a Real
Estate Fortune, which continues to sell briskly in the 2004-05 Revised Edition.  Buy and Hold was named one of the 10 best Real Estate books
of 2000 by syndicated columnist Robert Bruss.  David and his wife, Margaret, have also had stories in every version of the Chopped Liver
Anthology series published by the Book Publicists of Southern California.

Author and Philanthropist
Still owning three properties on the famous Strand in Hermosa Beach,
California, where Schumacher had been doing business for over 50 years,
they decided it was time give something back to a community which has given
them so much.  As a result they donated 1 million dollars toward renovation
and expansion of the Hermosa Beach Pier.  On November 19, 2005 a
ceremony was held to dedicate the Schumacher Plaza, named in honor of
David Schumacher's twin brother, Paul.  Attended by County Supervisor Don
Knabe and hosted by Hermosa Beach Mayor Peter Tucker, the dedication
was preceded by press coverage worthy of such a great civic gift.

There are heroes among us who lift us
to unlimited heights with their spirit and
persistence.  Dr. David Theodore
Schumacher was a businessman,
author, appraiser and real estate guru.  
He amassed a fortune in real estate
throughout his lifetime, and then used it
for humanitarian purposes.  

The entrance to the Hermosa Beach Pier
in Hermosa Beach, CA, was rebuilt with
funds David donated.  It was renamed
Schumacher Plaza in honor of his late
twin brother Paul.  
In March of 2007 he donated one million dollars to the Mission
Hospital in Mission Viejo, CA, for the construction of the Schumacher
Healing Garden.  It was renamed Schumacher Plaza in honor of his
late twin brother Paul.  In March of 2007 he donated one million
dollars to the Mission Hospital in Mission Viejo, CA, for the

Everyone who crossed David's path learned from this incredible
gentleman.  He was a lecturer, world traveler, and tour leader.  He
taught advanced appraisal courses for the California Department of
Real Estate at Los Angeles City College and UCLA Extension.  His
list of memberships in Professional Societies included: SREA Society
of Real Estate Appraisers, ASA American Society of Appraisers,
American Society of Military Engineers, South Bay Realty Board, and
many more.

He realized all of this in spite of becoming increasingly blind from a
birth defect known as progressive myopia, a detached retina and
glaucoma.  Although being nearly without sight from before the age
of 60 and totally blind from the age of 76, David led an extra-ordinary
life of achievement.  He authored Buy and Hold, 7 Steps to a Real
Estate Fortune.

He optimistically engaged in such activities as chess, square,
dancing, collecting stamps and coins, opera, classical music, ballet
and Broadway musicals with his countless friends around the globe.

Here's to David whose spirit will forever be with us.
