Jackie Erney’s career has come full circle since first becoming a realtor in Gainesville, Florida. As she explains, “I learned how to promote real estate early in my PR career in South Florida. There, I promoted such landmark communities as Aventura, Environ at Inverrary, Rolling Hills Golf and Country Club, Hollybrook at Hollywood, Tanglewood at Tamarac, and such prestigious high rise communities as the Renaissance, Brickell Bay Club, and the Towers of Key Biscayne. In North Carolina, I promoted the famous Saffire Valley Golf and Country Club. My experience in promoting real estate properties and meeting the needs of customers is the foundation of my real estate business.”
