About DeeDee McGary

After retiring from a long and fulfilling career in healthcare, my husband and I moved to Florida in 2017 to build our dream home. I've always had an interest in real estate, and this transition felt like the perfect opportunity to explore a new and exciting path.

Real estate requires dedication, persistence, and a personal touch, and I am now enjoying a successful new career, recently leading a large local agency in listings Having experienced a major relocation myself, I understand both the joys and the challenges of moving to a new state and adapting to a new community.

My passion for new experiences has shaped much of my life. I've had the privilege of traveling to all 50 U.S. states, as well as Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Internationally, I've explored more than 20 countries across the Americas, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. I bring this same sense of curiosity, connection, and enthusiasm to each real estate journey I share with my customers. Before transitioning into real estate, I had a successful and deeply rewarding career as a nurse, nurse practitioner, and nurse educator. After earning my Doctorate in Nursing, I taught at several universities, including a remarkable three-year appointment at a prominent university in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The skills that made me a successful healthcare provider—communication, empathy, attention to detail, and a deep commitment to helping others—are the same qualities that make me a trusted and effective real estate agent. Today, I truly love working with both buyers and sellers. My husband and I absolutely love living in Florida—and I'm confident you will t
