JOIN THE UNRIVALED LEADER IN REAL ESTATE

No other real estate company knows the prestigious communities and lifestyle opportunities of Southwest Florida better. Over the decades, John R. Wood Properties has evolved into a formidable luxury real estate brand with more than 650 best-in-class agents in 19 offices, from Marco Island to Sanibel and Captiva. In 1958, our founder, John R. Wood, established our first office in Naples when it was merely a quiet seaside village. He saw the remarkable potential and irresistible appeal of this entire region. We credit his success and our firm’s remarkable longevity to courageous risk-taking—sometimes breaking from conventional wisdom—and the agility to respond quickly to changing buyer expectations. John Wood’s commitment to philanthropy, ethics and legendary service defines us and distinguishes us from our peers to this day.
