Gary Jaarda: After three decades of selling real estate in Western Michigan and many years of visiting Southwest Florida, Gary's relocation to the Gulf Coast was a natural evolution. Gary previously co-founded and operated West Michigan's premier high-end residential development company, and as a luxury homes developer for most of his career, complete and marketed 17 communities in the area. A graduate of Calvin College in Grand Rapids, MI with a BS in Economics, Gary has made a career of navigating economic trends and changing markets to thrive in general brokerage and real estate development. He transitioned to Bonita Springs & Naples in 2002, and has since offered clients utmost professionalism, broad-based knowledge, savvy negotiating skills, plus a vast network of contacts and resources. In addition, the Jaarda's represented the buyer for the largest residential transaction in Naples in 2013, a $30 Million beachfront sale on Gordon Drive. Gary takes his clients' outcomes personally, which explains his strong determination and work ethic.

Becky Jaarda enjoyed seasoned experience in property management prior to transitioning to general real estate brokerage in 2000. Her longstanding presence in Southwest Florida affords her an unmatched historical perspective of the unique trends and evolution of this very special market. Becky is masterful at watching the area's ever-changing real estate inventory and drawing on her expertise in market analysis and valuations to benefit and educate her clients. She also drives the Jaarda team's innovative marketing efforts that include creating high-quality print materials and direct mail showcasing professional photography, as well as exposures on BonitaSpringsNaples.com and other prominent websites. Becky is a graduate of Illinois Benedictine College located in Lisle, Illinois, where she received a BS in Business. Becky, Jeff and Gary Jaarda have joined us from Premier Sotheby’s.

He thoroughly enjoys and is adept at the marketing of luxury property, and is expert on the distinguishing features of many luxury developments in Naples and Bonita Springs. With his background in banking and consulting, Jeff is skilled in negotiating contracts, familiar with the nuances of transactions, and attentive to the intricate details involved in the successful closing of his team's transactions. Jeff holds a BA degree in Political Science from Furman University in Greenville, South Carolina.
