Bridgers advances at Watson Realty
Neil Bridgers has been named vice president and managing broker for Watson Realty’s San Marco and Sunbeam offices.
He has been with Watson Realty since 2016, moving up to branch manager last January before advancing to his current title.
Between the two offices, Bridgers oversees a team of approximately 30, mentoring and training both new recruits and tenured agents. This new title, he said, allows him opportunities to recruit, educate and nurture both emerging agents new to the field and more seasoned ones.
It is a duty he said he truly enjoys and one he wasn’t necessarily expecting while working to obtain his broker’s license.
“I was always worried if I was a broker, that it would just be, ‘Oh God, I need to know the law by heart and be able to guide people.’ But really, it’s a lot less of that, and it’s a lot more of coaching and developing people through building their business and building their brand, which I love to get to do. I love getting to bring on new agents,” Bridgers said.
When he’s not working with his team of agents, Bridgers can also be found teaching continuing education courses as a faculty instructor with Florida Realtors, a “rewarding experience” which allows him to stay current in a field that is a “never-ending education” while also providing the opportunity to get more involved in the Florida real estate industry.
“I’m so appreciative to be here and be in this role where I get to help others, and I get to run two offices,” he said. “I’m so happy to say that I’m here with Watson, with this company. It’s where I started in real estate. I really do think that we’re one of the best companies in Northeast Florida. I really do.”
