For nearly two decades, Gary Hennes Realtors® has been more than a brokerage—we’ve been architects of Miami Beach’s transformation. While others followed trends, we created markets. While others sold properties, we restored landmarks. While competitors expanded recklessly, we built something rare: a culture of excellence that attracts the industry’s most accomplished professionals.
Founded in 2006 by broker Gary Hennes—a third-generation real estate entrepreneur whose family helped define South Beach’s Art Deco renaissance—our firm was built on a principle that remains revolutionary: real estate is local, service-oriented, and personality-driven. Not corporate. Not franchise. Not cookie-cutter.
Gary’s instrumental role in the sale and development of 35 landmark South Beach buildings—including Tribeca, Fontana, Atlantis, and the Vanderbilt—established our reputation as the brokerage that understands not just properties, but the soul of Miami Beach itself.
Our roster of agents reads like a who’s who of Miami Beach real estate excellence. We don’t recruit agents—we attract professionals who’ve already proven themselves at the highest levels. From international investment specialists and former bankers to acclaimed photographers, bestselling authors, and agents who’ve closed over $100 million in career sales, our team brings depth of expertise that boutique firms rarely achieve and corporate operations can’t replicate.
Many have been with us since 2006. Others chose us after distinguished careers at major brokerages, recognizing that Gary Hennes Realtors offers something the industry has lost: a collaborative culture where reputation matters more than production quotas, where integrity isn’t negotiable, and where every agent genuinely respects their colleagues.
Headquartered at 1335 Lincoln Road—a free-standing luxury address on the world’s most famous pedestrian promenade—we serve clients from Naples to Tampa, and from South Beach to the Caribbean. We’re members of both Miami and Tampa boards, with access to regional MLS systems that give our clients unmatched market coverage.
Yet we’ve never sacrificed our boutique character for scale. Every client receives the personalized, concierge-level service that made our reputation. Every transaction benefits from our collective decades of market knowledge. Every relationship is built to last beyond closing.
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all marketing plans or template transactions. Each property receives a custom strategy. Each client receives honest counsel. Each situation is approached with the creativity and precision it deserves.
Our emphasis on integrity, reputation, and fair dealing isn’t marketing language—it’s the non-negotiable foundation that has earned us respect even from competitors who recognize excellence when they see it.
Top producers join Gary Hennes Realtors® because they’re tired of being treated like numbers. International clients choose us because we understand their markets and speak their languages. Developers partner with us because we’ve actually built buildings, not just sold them. Buyers and sellers return to us—and refer their friends—because we deliver results without drama, expertise without arrogance, and service that feels personal because it is.
As Miami Beach continues its evolution into a global destination, Gary Hennes Realtors® remains what we’ve always been: the firm that doesn’t follow the market—we shape it. The brokerage that doesn’t chase trends—we anticipate them. The team that doesn’t just close transactions—we build relationships that span decades.
If you’re seeking an agent who knows Miami Beach intimately, operates with integrity, and delivers results that exceed expectations, you’ve found your firm.
