About Leane Suarez

LeAne, a Canadian native, has been a licensed real estate professional in New Jersey since 1987 and in Florida since 1992. As a dedicated full-time broker and REALTOR®, she has established herself as a formidable force in the luxury real estate market, particularly in the Sanibel Captiva South Seas Island Resort and throughout Southwest Florida. Her expertise lies in property sales, where she adeptly meets the unique needs of both buyers and sellers, ensuring optimal value for all transactions.

With a strong background in IRS 1031 tax-deferred exchanges and community association management, LeAne offers her clients comprehensive insights into property ownership on Captiva Island. Her marketing strategies leverage multiple listing systems, global networking affiliations, and social media platforms to enhance property visibility.

In October 2018, LeAne completed her fifth marathon in her hometown of Toronto, Ontario. She holds a broker’s license and serves as Vice President at John R. Wood Properties, where she is also recognized as a Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist. Additionally, she has earned the “Sanibel & Captiva Island Specialist” certification. Locally, LeAne is an active volunteer with the Captiva Community Panel and manages the Captiva Storm Smart Community Facebook Group. She is also a board member and key sponsor for the Sanibel & Captiva Breast Cancer Awareness chapter, known as “Pink Out.” Alongside her three children, she participates in meal packing initiatives for Meals of Hope, contributing to the fight against hunger.

In September 2022, John R. Wood Properties formed a strategic partnership with Christie’s International Real Estate, enhancing the global reach and exposure of their property listings. Christie’s, a leader in luxury real estate for over 30 years, operates an exclusive affiliate network across 50 countries and territories, providing unparalleled service to a discerning international clientele.

The LeAneSUAREZGroup includes a dynamic team of fifth-generation Floridians, Alec and Austin Suarez, who both grew up on the island and attended The Sanibel School.

Lee County, Florida stands as one of Southwest Florida's most dynamic real estate markets, anchored by Fort Myers and Cape Coral along the Caloosahatchee River. This coastal paradise has experienced remarkable growth over the past decade, transforming from a sleepy retirement destination into a thriving hub that attracts families, professionals, and investors from across the nation. The market's resilience and diversity have created opportunities that extend far beyond traditional seasonal patterns.

With 20,629 total actively licensed agents operating in Lee County—all equipped with email contact information—the market demonstrates both robust activity and sophisticated digital connectivity. This substantial agent presence reflects the county's complex geography spanning barrier islands, mainland communities, and everything in between, each requiring specialized local expertise to navigate effectively.

Major Lee County, Florida Real Estate Markets

Fort Myers serves as the county's commercial and cultural center, featuring established neighborhoods like McGregor Boulevard's historic corridor alongside rapidly developing areas such as Gateway and Six Mile Cypress. Cape Coral, known as the "Waterfront Wonderland," boasts more miles of canals than Venice, Italy, making waterfront properties a significant market segment. The city's systematic development of previously undeveloped lots has created unique opportunities for both builders and buyers seeking customizable living situations.

The barrier islands of Sanibel, Captiva, and Fort Myers Beach represent the premium coastal market, where properties command top dollar for their pristine beaches and natural preserves. Bonita Springs bridges Lee and Collier counties, offering luxury developments like Bonita Bay, while Estero provides master-planned communities such as Miromar Lakes. Each area maintains distinct characteristics that require agents with hyperlocal knowledge to serve clients effectively.

Market Dynamics and Geographic Complexity

Lee County's real estate landscape operates across multiple price points simultaneously, from affordable starter homes in Lehigh Acres to multimillion-dollar estates on Captiva Island. The market's seasonal nature creates fascinating dynamics where inventory patterns, pricing strategies, and buyer demographics shift dramatically between winter and summer months. This complexity demands agents who understand not just property values, but migration patterns, rental markets, and investment potential across diverse communities.

The county's rapid population growth—among Florida's fastest-growing regions—has created infrastructure challenges and opportunities that directly impact real estate values. New construction struggles to meet demand in some areas, while others experience planned development that transforms entire districts. Hurricane recovery and flood zone considerations add another layer of expertise that separates knowledgeable local agents from generalists.

Why Businesses Need Lee County, Florida Agent Contact Data

Real estate service providers, from mortgage lenders to home inspectors, find Lee County's 20,629 agents represent an exceptionally valuable network for business development. The high agent-to-population ratio indicates active market participation and frequent transactions, creating consistent demand for professional services. Marketing companies, technology providers, and financial services can leverage this comprehensive contact database to reach decision-makers who influence significant real estate transactions daily.

The fact that all 20,629 agents maintain email contact information enables sophisticated digital marketing campaigns targeting specific geographic specialties or client demographics. Property management companies, insurance providers, and construction contractors benefit from direct access to agents who regularly encounter clients needing their services, creating referral opportunities that drive sustainable business growth throughout this dynamic market.
