Governor John W. Martin signed acts creating the counties of Indian River and Martin on the very same day, May 30, 1925. The road to the governor’s desk had not been easy. Influential political interests around the state tried their best to stop both counties from upsetting the balance of power in the Florida Legislature. So, the siblings had to learn to work together in order for each to get their way.

Behind the scenes, a well-respected lobbyist came up with the winning strategy. He suggested that the people of Stuart name their county a er the brand new governor. That got Governor Martin on board to support both counties as part of a deal, and legislators around the state quickly dropped all objections. In the following months, two more counties—Gulf and Gilchrist—were created to maintain the era’s balance of power. - Written by: Rick Crary

A Legacy of Commitment, A Community We Love

Dale Sorensen, Sr. and Matilde Sorensen built their lives in Vero Beach with a leap of faith and a deep belief in this community. When Dale’s career was set to take them elsewhere, they chose to stay, putting down roots and starting what would become Dale Sorensen Real Estate. From a single o ce in 1978 to a thriving, family-run firm with six locations today, their success has always been about more than real estate – it’s been about the people who make this place home.

Through every chapter of growth, one thing has never changed: our dedication to this community. It’s where we built our business, raised our family – which includes three children, two of whom work in the family business, and five grandchildren – and continue to give back. Vero Beach isn’t just where we work – it’s part of who we are.

At Dale Sorensen Real Estate, we don’t just sell homes – we build relationships that last a lifetime.
