Take your time learning the Florida Keys market before jumping in. Every neighborhood has its own rules, flood zones, and boating access. Once you’re serious, get pre-approved and work with an agent who understands both the lifestyle and the logistics of owning here.

Price it right from the start. Buyers today have plenty of data, and overpriced listings sit. Strong photos, good presentation, and honest pricing will always attract the best offers, especially in the Keys where waterfront and insurance factors come into play.

Mostly buyers and sellers of waterfront and vacation homes throughout the Florida Keys, including Key Largo, Islamorada, Marathon, the Lower Keys, and Key West. I also handle referrals to trusted agents when it is in the consumer's best interest.

A waterfront home sale where the buyer had been searching for the right fit for over a year. We focused on homes where the flood insurance premiums were manageable, doing the research upfront before making an offer rather than waiting until the inspection period. That proactive approach gave the buyer confidence and avoided surprises later. We ended up closing smoothly on a well-kept canal home that checked every box. A great experience for everyone involved.

I began in real estate in the late 1980s here in the Florida Keys. For many years, I worked as a State-certified appraiser before shifting my full attention to real estate sales. That background gives me a strong grasp of property valuation and market trends, which benefits my buyers and sellers every day.

Yes. In addition to holding a Florida Broker license, I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Real Estate and maintain advanced training in contract negotiation, marketing, and coastal property regulations. This combination helps my clients make informed, confident decisions throughout the buying or selling process.
