Posted

Watson is celebrating 55 years of delivering quality service to home buyers and sellers.

On Dec. 16, 1965, William “Bill” A. Watson, Jr. founded Watson Realty with nothing but a small office in Jacksonville, and he dreamed of a people-oriented company sensitive to the needs, wants and desires of its customers. Now, after building upon his dream, philosophy, and core values, Watson Realty Corp. has grown into 48 offices with nearly 1,400 sales associates across Florida and South Georgia.

“We are so fortunate to celebrate 55 wonderful years in the real estate profession and to provide so many people the opportunity to achieve the great American dream of home ownership,” Watson said. “Owning real estate builds wealth, provides security and improves quality of life.”

Over the years, Watson has expanded its services to include mortgage, title, insurance, property management, association management, construction, plumbing/HVAC and a real estate school under its Family of Services. In 2020, the company garnered more than 12,000 real estate transactions and $3 billion dollars in sales.

This coming year, Watson will roll out new digital marketing technology along with an all-new website with the latest user-friendly interface and tools for buying and selling a home.
