New Construction

Buying a New Construction Home? Do I need a Realtor?

Learn More

I was born and raised here in southwest Florida, it has been amazing to watch this sleepy gulf coast transform into a hotspot for real estate.

As a Realtor, I feel that lifestyle and the neighborhood is almost more important than the actual house. I want to know about my customers, their hobbies and interests so I can help them discover the right spot. That may be a golf community with a country club or a condo within minutes of sticking their toes in the sand.

My entire career has been helping people find the right home, after college I began working in the Senior Living Industry, as Director of Sales and Marketing. Working with seniors reinforced my values of honesty, patience and communication.

I then had the privilege of working for the developer during the final years of construction in St. Andrews East in The Plantation Golf and Country Club. Here I gained a wealth of knowledge about Florida’s building process making me an asset to anyone planning to purchase new construction or an existing home.

I believe being a native to the area, knowing the history and personality of the neighborhoods benefits my customers whether they are buying or selling. As a seasoned Realtor I understand the importance of staying current with local market trends and home values. Always doing my very best on each transaction.

I am Shannon with eXp Realty, and I am truly here to help….
