La Florida Reviews & Testimonials

"...Gay and Jeff are the personification of excellence in real estate professionals..."

"I met Gay and Jeff when I needed to quickly sell one beach home in order to purchase another. Throughout both the sale and the purchase their extensive experience and large professional network were key to our ultimate success. Their attention to detail, their excellent skills in esthetics both in decorating and photography, their consistent drive in quickly resolving issues and moving the processes forward were invaluable in my ultimate success in achieving my goal. I especially value their diplomacy in resolving challenging issues. Also, I will be forever grateful for their support in providing access to both homes for contractors and watching over the work to assure it was done in a quality manner well after the closing date. This was especially helpful given my geographical remoteness Gay and Jeff are the personification of excellence in real estate professionals and they will undoubtedly be my first choice for future real estate actions."

"If you want a firm that knows the ins and outs of all the locations, communities, builders and associations in the area, while curating for you desirable properties based on your individual specifications, I highly recommend La Florida."

"I received a recommendation to consider La Florida for my real estate purchase, and I am pleased to write that they exceeded all my expectations. For me, it first starts with honesty and integrity, and that is something exemplified by Gay, Jeff and the entire La Florida team. They helped me find the home that fit me best, while truly working on my behalf. It really makes a difference to have a trusted advisor that is truly looking out for your best interest. When you pair that integrity with decades worth of experience and the knowledge of this entire costal region, its no wonder why once you find La Florida there is no reason to go anywhere else.

"Gay and her entire team are an absolute delight to work with. I have purchased
many homes and have never felt the realtor was truly on my side until Gay. She was so patient going through the entire process and always put our needs and wants ahead of closing a sale for herself. She is absolutely splendid and I highly
recommend her for all your real estate needs!"

"Having bought and sold five residential properties during our 38 years of marriage, we can say without a doubt that Gay Landreth is the 'best of the best'."

"Having bought and sold five residential properties during our 38 years of marriage, we can say without a doubt that Gay Landreth is the “best of the best”. She is honest, professional, smart, hard working, responsive, and knows the coastal real estate market inside out. Furthermore, she takes a personal interest in her clients, and goes the extra mile to help them reach their goals. We strongly recommend her to anyone buying or selling in the area."

"There was never a doubt in my mind that Gay and Jeff would represent us with grace, compassion, and business savvy."

"Gay and Jeff Landreth have been friends with our family for almost forty years. I have admired their business acumen for years and as friends and neighbors they became personally dedicated to helping our family in any way they could as my mother grew older and began to decline. That alone is priceless. When my mother passed away many people and realtors began to come out of the wings to try to purchase or represent buyers of this valuable property in Gulf Pines, Miramar Beach, FL. Selling a home that was the family gathering place for 50 years is a mixed bag of emotions and seller intelligence. There was never a doubt in my mind that Gay and Jeff would represent us with grace, compassion, and business savvy. They know the market and we trusted their recommendations with no doubts that they had our best interest in mind. I could go on and on. Doing business with friends (and family) can go south quickly but it all ran perfectly and we closed on the house last week. I think I speak for my family that we are satisfied and forever grateful for their help in guiding us through this challenging chapter of our lives."

"Highly recommend this team...they are simply the best."

"Gay, Jeff, and their La Florida team were all extremely professional and knowledgeable. We received updates regularly on where we were in the process of selling our undeveloped property and received well-thought-out advice as we navigated the unique challenges involved. The property had been on the market for a long time with a different company. I believe the La Florida team's attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond got this property SOLD. They knew exactly how to position the property to generate interest and thoughtfully addressed every challenge that came up. Highly recommend this team...they are simply the best."

"If you want to transact real estate right, use Gay and Jeff Landreth with La Florida Coastal Properties."

"Carol and I have always wished we had a little more room and were right on the gulf. On a whim we asked to walk through a condominium home with a little more room but no closer to the gulf. That is when we met Gay and Jeff. Once Gay understood what we really wanted, she made the unbelievable happen. Jeff’s technical knowledge in numerous fields is outstanding. He made the difficult simple. In less than 40 days we purchased a “once in a lifetime” property and sold our existing unit. Gay and Jeff even worked it out so they closed on the same day making our finances easy. They bring significant knowledge, expertise and relationship and are simply a pleasure to work with. If you want to transact real estate right, use Gay and Jeff Landreth with La Florida Coastal Properties."

"Jeff is the best with the market details! He knows the area very well!"

"Gay, Jeff and team were fabulous from beginning to end of our "2nd home", condo purchase! We knew the general area that we wanted to be in, however had no idea how to find the perfect location for our family in the tons of listings available. One call to Gay and we easily narrowed that down in just a few days! She listens and provides honest feedback about your purchase. Jeff is the best with the market details! He knows the area very well! They complimented each other perfectly to cover every small detail of our purchase. And I can't forget Janna who made sure we didn't forget a single deadline during closing. The purchase that we thought would take several months was completed in just a few short weeks and I'm enjoying my condo and private balcony as I write this review! Thanks Gay Landreth!"

"We had an excellent experience with them - you won't be disappointed."

"When contemplating selling one property in order to purchase another at Bella Vita, there seemed to be one obvious choice in professionals to represent us for both transactions. Gay and Jeff Landreth with La Florida were able to accomplish this in the least stressful and most expeditious way and my husband and I highly recommend them for services. They are very experienced and knowledgeable in high end properties for that area which is invaluable because of networking they provide. The marketing of the property we wished to sell was of very high quality with professional photography and extensive distribution in likely markets of buyers. We were advised about how best to market as well as regular notifications and feedback on showings. Their assistant, Janna, kept us informed even during slower periods throughout the process. For the property we wished to purchase, they functioned very well as our advocates in communicating/negotiating with the seller's representative. Because of their experience, they were able to accomplish both transactions to bring about the best outcome we could have hoped for and within the time constraints of our contracts. Jeff and Gay work very well as a complementary team and each brings unique contributions to the process of representing clients whether buying or selling. They are very responsive to communication, have a high level of understanding of the legalities of real estate and have delightful personalities. We had an excellent experience with them - you won't be disappointed."

"Their comprehensive knowledge of the market along with ability to communicate across all lines definitely are strong attributes of Gay, Jeff and Janna. And on a personal level - they're just great people!"

"We had the privilege of working with Gay and Jeff Landreth along with Janna Riley with our recent purchase of a condo in Belle Mer on Navarre Beach. Their portfolio of property on Navarre Beach, not only as a buyer's agent but also as a seller's agent, is quite expansive and impressive. The degree of professionalism that the entire La Florida team exhibited was extraordinary. We asked quite a bit of them in regards to research and meeting the demands of our very limited availability due to being out of state clients. Never were we disappointed in their responsiveness with in-depth information of the market and also in providing us with contact information for engineers, contractors and other professionals that we needed to consult with. Each and every time we had a meeting, they were there to assist. Gay and Jeff understood our stringent expectations and consistently delivered what we needed to finalize our decision while always looking out for our best interest. A great amount of work went into the sale with it being a quick close that could only have happened because of the La Florida team being so thorough and diligent! Their comprehensive knowledge of the market along with ability to communicate across all lines definitely are strong attributes of Gay, Jeff and Janna. And on a personal level - they're just great people! We whole heartedly appreciate them and most definitely hope to work with them again."
