About Lindsey
Known for the negotiation. Trusted for the local knowledge.
Clients come to me because I know these neighborhoods street by street, and because I don't leave money on the table.
As a top-producing agent with LPT Realty, I represent buyers, sellers and investment groups across two very different Florida markets. That range lets me spot value others miss: a condo building with healthy reserves, an off-market property that fits a 1031 timeline, or a single-family home priced right for a neighborhood that's about to move.
I'm also a mentor on The Real Powerhouse Team, where I coach agents through their first deals, their pipelines and their negotiations. The same discipline I teach is the discipline I bring to every client.

Florida Real Estate Investors
Your 1031 exchange runs on a clock. I work to it.
A 1031 exchange lets you defer capital gains by reinvesting sale proceeds into like-kind property. The hard part is finding the right replacement in time. I source and negotiate Florida properties that fit your timeline and your long-term portfolio plan.
