Our Story

In 1986, when every brokerage in Naples was chasing national-brand logos, one firm chose a different path.

FREC License #CQ257718 • Three Naples offices • (239) 263-1000

Waterfront Realty Group, Inc. was built on a single premise: real estate professionals should keep 100% of their commission. From day one, the brokerage charged flat, transparent fees and delivered full infrastructure — broker support, training, technology, and three Naples offices. No splits. No royalties. No national-brand assessments.

Nearly 40 years later, that model has drawn 200+ licensed Realtors and carried the firm through every market cycle Southwest Florida has seen — the savings-and-loan era, the 2008 downturn, and post-COVID waterfront demand unlike anything the region had witnessed. The model endures because it is Realtor-owned, designed for operators, and built around the licensee — not around a brand’s bottom line.

“‘Realtor‑owned’ is not a marketing line — it’s the reason the 100% model has endured four decades while big-box brokerages have changed hands, rebranded, and disappeared.”

Big-box brokerages have changed corporate parents, changed names, merged, and disappeared. The brands that were here in 1986 are not the same companies today.

The Difference

Why Realtors Choose Waterfront

Learn About Joining →

01

100% Commission

Keep every dollar you earn. Our licensees pay a flat monthly fee and a per-transaction fee — no splits, no royalties, no national-brand assessments. On a $15M waterfront sale, the difference is not a rounding error.

02

Full-Service Platform

Professional marketing, in-house transaction coordinator service, weekly training through Waterfront Institute, technology tools, and three Naples offices. Everything a producing Realtor needs — included.

03

Nearly 40 Years of Local Roots

Deep Southwest Florida expertise spanning every market cycle — from 2008 to post-COVID waterfront demand. Our licensees know every neighborhood, every canal, and every nuance of this market. That institutional knowledge cannot be shipped in from a corporate office.

Realtor-Owned

At Waterfront Realty Group, Inc., the owners are producing Realtors. Not investors. Not a corporate board. Not a private equity group optimizing for an exit.

That means the brokerage’s only incentive is to make its licensees more successful — because the owners operate under the same model, on the same floor, in the same market. There are no outside shareholders extracting profit from production. Waterfront is a platform built by Realtors, for Realtors. The 200+ licensees who call Waterfront home are independent professionals who chose a firm designed around their success.
