Welcome to Florida’s beautiful Nature Coast! I’m Debra A. Kennedy, a top-producing Realtor with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Florida Properties Group, specializing in waterfront, Gulf-access, and coastal lifestyle properties throughout Pasco, Hernando, Pinellas, and surrounding areas. Whether you’re searching for your first home, a waterfront retreat, investment property, maintenance-free villa, or your forever retirement home, I’m here to help guide you every step of the way.
What truly sets me apart is my deep understanding of Florida waterfront living. Having personally lived in communities such as Leisure Beach, Sea Pines, Sea Ranch, and Hernando Beach, I know these waterways firsthand. I help buyers navigate everything from canal depths, boating access, marinas, and flood insurance transfers to seawalls, inspections, wind mitigation reports, and the realities of owning waterfront property in Florida.
As the daughter of a contractor and former office manager for my husband’s home inspection company, I also bring practical construction and inspection knowledge that many agents simply don’t have. I understand the building process, renovation considerations, four-point inspections, insurance concerns, and many of the questions buyers and sellers face in today’s Florida market.
After personally experiencing flood restoration in my own home, I became highly educated in FEMA processes, flood mitigation, and storm recovery resources. I’ve even organized community flood demonstration events to help educate homeowners about flood protection solutions and preparedness.
But real estate is never just about houses — it’s about lifestyle. Want to know which marinas are easiest to access? Which islands locals love to boat to? The history behind the Gulf stilt houses? Where to catch dolphins at sunset or grab fresh seafood on the water? That’s the kind of local knowledge I love sharing with my clients.
Known by many as “The First Lady to Call with Your Real Estate Needs,” I pride myself on being honest, responsive, hardworking, and always willing to help in any way I can. My goal is to make the buying or selling process feel less stressful, more informed, and even enjoyable along the way.
I would be honored to help you with your next move here on Florida’s beautiful Gulf Coast.
