"5 Stars all around. Jonathan was one of 4 brokers to present a marketing plan for the sale of our home. They all did a good job, but Jonathan did a superb job. After visiting our home to check things out, he invited us to the boardroom and gave us a live presentation. He showed us the comparable listings and recently sold homes that supported the sales price he recommended. I will add that rather than paper handouts, he had all of the comps on the screen live so we could look at the details, pictures, etc. He suggested a price and documented the price so we were comfortable that we were at or above the market. He then sent a professional photographer to take the pictures. One of his many assistants, Jess, was there to direct the process. He also has another assistant, Sara, who works with him on the many details that go into a home sale. They are all the best! The listing went live and within a couple of hours, we had a full-price, cash offer. I won't go into it, but we also had many showings and offers that first day, but we took the first one. The house was listed, under contract, and closed within a month plus a couple of days. I heard from Jonathan or one of his people on a routine basis, but only when necessary. He is very professional, but also just like a friend you want to hang out with. Don't think about it further! Give him a call! You will not regret it!"

"We recently worked with Kristin from the Spears Group and we couldn’t have made a better choice going with her as our agent. Not only did she make the entire process seamless, but she went above and beyond to help us find the perfect fitting home for our growing family. Buying sight unseen is very nerve-wracking, but Kristin gave us all the confidence that we were making the right decision. She was always there checking in on us, explaining all the intricacies; even multiple times over when I needed extra clarification. She even did all of our walkthroughs for us. She had our interest forefront 100% of the time and I could not be more grateful for her knowledge, kindness, support, and generosity. I would highly recommend Kristin to anyone looking to buy in the 30A area."

"Now that the dust has settled and the excitement has eased a bit, I wanted to express my sincere gratitude to Brandon Zellers of the Spears Group at Scenic Sotheby's Realty. Brandon is a young up-and-coming rising star in the real estate community from 30-A to Destin. With his entrepreneurial spirit, he reached out to me on a "cold call" after seeing my own listing by owner on Zillow. We met one afternoon and because of his infectious spirit, impeccable presentation, persistence, and excitement, I listed my property with him. He not only sold my property within a few weeks but achieved my asking price and set a building record! Thank you Brandon for working so hard for me! You made it easy and you made my dream come true! Thank You for seeing my vision. I can't thank you enough."

"My husband and I had a great experience listing our home with you all. It was a very emotional time for us, as it was definitely a hard door for us to close! You guys helped us close that chapter of our lives as smoothly as possible and we appreciate it greatly. I asked Kadi a million questions and no matter if it was morning, evening, or weekend, she always responded in a timely manner and was always so sweet. Having a new baby and moving over 600 miles away while your house is still for sale is very nerve-wracking, but I never doubted we were leaving our home in good hands and that was a weight lifted off of my shoulders."

"Our experience with Johnathan and his team has been terrific. They have always represented us as consummate professionals which is appreciated especially in today's Real Estate climate. It's easy to see why Jonathan is one of the very top producers in our area. He's relentless, pays attention to the smallest detail, understands the market like none other, and works 24/7 it seems. What left a lasting impression on us was although he's obviously extremely busy helping others, we feel like we are his only client. We like the fact that this team takes a long-term view of the Real Estate business as well, couldn't be more pleased."

"My business partner and I have worked with Jonathan on three different real estate opportunities. He sold two beach rental homes for us and helped us buy a beachfront estate lot. By far the best experience we have had in any real estate purchase or sale. Jonathan follows through. He is tenacious and very thorough. Extremely knowledgeable about the varying levels of the market - buying or selling land, and houses and seeing opportunities. We have greatly valued his input spot on. During the entire process, he is always very personable and easy to work with. We recommend him highly and couldn't be more satisfied."

He wasn’t able to get back to me right away but he had his colleague Kadi Higginbotham reach out to me within the next few hours to make sure my needs were met. Their group operates with a high standard of service, quality, and knowledge. I couldn’t have gotten through the process without them and it made my experience wonderful as a first-time vacation rental owner. I would recommend them to anyone!

"What a great experience we had looking for our home in The Destin/30A area. Jonathan was an absolute pleasure to work with and such a help to us along the way. When we came into town, we wanted to maximize our time and see as much as possible. Jonathan was always more than accommodating and we enjoyed our long days together searching for houses. His follow-up and help are still above and beyond even after the closing. Not only did we find a great agent, but we also made a good friend!"

"A year ago, Kadi Higginbotham helped us with our first ever condo purchase. She was patient, courteous, and amazing to work with each step of the way!

She did it all with confidence and encouragement to us that all would end well. We wouldn't use A else ever!"

If anything changed or popped up unexpectedly I always had an email or call from him as soon as possible. On top of that, he has all the contacts for repairmen, inspectors, photographers, or anything you might need to help you sell your house. I cannot imagine using anyone else, and I am extremely satisfied with my realtor. Absolutely outstanding in every aspect and my experience with Lyndon and Compass Reality has set the bar for what I now expect from selling a home."

The property sold at the most expensive price per square foot in the history of Seaside by well over 20%. Throughout the entire process communication was the most impressive. Jonathan or one of his team members gave us daily updates throughout the negotiations, inspections, and closing process. I would highly recommend The Spears Group if you're looking to sell or purchase a property in Seaside or any other location up and down 30A."

"It's unbelievable how easy (on my part) it was for my home to sell. Clay Owens had to showings the second day it was on the market. And one of those clients bought the house. Clay kept me informed of all that was going on and at the same time didn't overload me with stuff that he could handle. He is a great man and a great friend. He also sold my in-law's home with the same easygoing (for them) style. There is no one else I could ever think of to do business with. Thank you, Clay, for your friendship and award-winning business skills."

I can’t overstate that this was, by far, the best real estate agent experience I’ve ever had. Mark understood that we had the exact house we wanted even before we’d prepared to list our current house. He carefully guided our next steps and assured us we’d get the money we wanted for the house we were selling and secure the house of our dreams. He made it his mission to make sure it all happened. It went just as he said, and because of how confident he seemed, I really never worried much about any of it. Mark took on the stress and worry of the process and gave 100% of his focus to all of our concerns, so we could relax. Couldn’t recommend Mark enough!"

Throughout the process, he maintained open communication, keeping us informed of every detail. We are thoroughly satisfied with our decision to work with Clay and are confident that others will be equally impressed."

"As a real estate agent myself, I’m extremely selective when it comes to choosing another agent to represent me—especially in a market I’m less familiar with. After thoroughly vetting several agents, I chose to work with Jen Kolar, and I couldn’t be happier with that decision. From start to finish, Jen was an absolute professional. Her communication skills are impeccable—clear, concise, and always proactive. She was incredibly responsive, consistently getting back to me almost immediately, no matter the time of day. That kind of promptness and reliability is rare, and it made the entire process seamless. Jen also has a deep understanding of the Florida market and provided honest, insightful guidance every step of the way. She anticipated our needs before we even had to ask and went above and beyond to ensure every detail was handled with care. Her negotiation skills, attention to detail, and calm, confident demeanor made what can sometimes be a stressful experience feel completely manageable. On top of all that, Jen was just a joy to work with—friendly, trustworthy, and genuinely invested in helping us find the right home. If you're looking for an agent who truly delivers five-star service, Jen Kolar is it. She exceeded every expectation, and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again or refer her to anyone looking to buy or sell in Florida."

On top of all that, Jen was just a joy to work with—friendly, trustworthy, and genuinely invested in helping us find the right home. If you're looking for an agent who truly delivers five-star service, Jen Kolar is it. She exceeded every expectation, and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again or refer her to anyone looking to buy or sell in Florida."

"We had the pleasure of working with Kristin Railton from the Spears Group or our out of state purchase of a home in SRB. Kristin went above and beyond the normal call of duty, and did it all with a smile. She was quick to respond to all of the many questions and requests we had being out of state. She treated us not only as her clients, but as her friends. We feel that we have gained a trusted friend in her through this transaction. We highly recommend Kristin. She is honest and truly cares about her clients."

"We worked with Maria while purchasing our house and highly recommend her and the Spears Group. Maria was personable, professional, communicative, proactive, and truly went above and beyond. She helped us find exactly what we were looking for in a house that met our family’s needs and was within our price range. She is very knowledgeable and was very quick to find us answers to any questions or concerns we had. Maria and the Spears Group have a ton of connections and relationships with great local vendors so she was able to give us and the seller recommendations for repairs, the inspection, and appraisal (and all of her connections were very professional and on-top-of-things as well). Working with Maria was all around a great experience and we will definitely be continuing to recommend her and Spears Group!"

"Kristen Railton is an awesome real estate agent. She is very knowledgeable about the market. I felt like I could go to her for any questions we had and felt that we could trust what she had to say. She was excellent at communicating with us and others. She is honest and personable. Since we were from out of state, she videoed us in on some homes we were interested in and gave us tours of the homes. She was so good at guiding us through the process, highlighting things in homes we should be mindful of and helping us get the best home that met our needs and give us peace of mind. When we did expand our options to farther locations, she went right along with and didn’t miss a beat! She was absolutely wonderful to work with and made buying our home a smooth, minimally stressful experience."

"Over the years we have bought and sold so many commercial and residential properties I can’t count. Max was by far the best agent we have ever worked with. He not only sold a property that was on and off the market for two years, he did it within two weeks! Also, he never hesitated replying to calls, or text. Max showed us a minimum of 40 homes to assist in our 1031 exchange. We finally found the perfect place, again. We will continue with Max as OUR realtor as long as he puts up with us!"

"I met Kelsey Hampton at an open house in Santa Rosa Beach. I have been in the real estate management business all of my career and did extensive research looking for the perfect property and started wondering if it even existed. I know I can be a difficult client since I’m very particular and actually prefer doing my own due diligence. Upon meeting Kelsey, she was able to put me at ease. She worked with me and for me to find “the perfect property” at the right price. Kelsey has been there every step of the way and continues to be there ensuring everything gets remedied to my liking. I have reached out after the sale several times and nothing is too much trouble for Kelsey. This is important when you’re 250 miles away. In my opinion, she has gone above and beyond and continues to do so. I am so appreciative of Kelsey and highly recommend her to find your dream home."

"Maria McKenna helped us close on our first home! Talk about nerves…
As first-time buyers, there were definitely moments where patience was the hardest thing to come by, but Maria always came through when it mattered most. She’s resourceful, hardworking, and truly cares about her clients. In the end, she helped us land a great home, and we’re grateful for all the effort she put in."
