In 1972, John Jacobi set out to change the real estate industry by putting relationships before sales quotas, with an emphasis on service to our clients and our community. Over 45 years later, this mission has helped grow Windermere into one of the largest independent real estate companies in the nation, with more than 300 offices and 6,000 agents throughout the Western U.S. and Mexico.

The real estate industry has changed substantially over the years, but Windermere's core values of relationships, community, collaboration, and professionalism have remained central to how the brand does business and the Brazen team strives to carry on this legacy for years to come.
