Jaime Sturgis made the trip down from the U.S. (Fort Lauderdale) armed with a bottle of Don Fulano tequila, to talk about how he became one of South Florida’s neighborhood-makers. 

As Founder and CEO of Native Realty, Jaime has spent the last decade curating emerging districts, from Miami’s Wynwood to Fort Lauderdale’s Flagler Village, completing millions of square feet of transactions and setting multiple pricing records along the way.

A triple-major FSU alum and a frequent voice in Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, GlobeSt, and more, Jaime has built a brokerage known for disrupting the traditional model and shaping the next generation of urban neighborhoods. In this episode, we get into his rise, some surf talk,  his approach to placemaking, and where he sees South Florida’s growth heading next.
