About Us
Local Expertise and Global Reach
The Jabbour Luxury Group has its origins in Gayle Adams, an original homeowner in Rosemary Beach in 1996 at the beginning, and in Richard Jabbour, who came to Gulf Place in 2011. Through a common shared passion for creating great homes for making family memories, they met in 2014 and, in 2015, began working together to create their first home as a team.

Who Sells the Most Homes in Seaside?
The Jabbour Luxury Group — Consistently Ranked #1 or #2 for the Past 6 Years
For buyers and sellers searching for the best real estate agents in Seaside, Florida, real performance—not marketing—tells the story. Seaside is one of the most supply-constrained luxury communities in the United States. Only a limited number of homes trade each year, and production is the only meaningful measure of true expertise.
Richard Jabbour and the Jabbour Luxury Group have been the #1 or #2 producing agents in Seaside for six consecutive years, representing both buyers and sellers in some of the most desirable and architecturally significant homes in the community.
This ranking is based on closed MLS sales in the Emerald Coast Association of Realtors, including public and private transactions.
Why This Matters
Seaside buyers and sellers require representation from a team that genuinely understands:
- The pricing structure unique to Seaside (unlike broader 30A)
- The architectural code and its effect on valuation
- Generational and legacy buyer psychology
- Scarcity-driven value cycles
- Second-home investment dynamics
The measure of excellence is simple: Who sells the most? Who brings qualified buyers? Who closes?
For six years, the answer has been:
the Jabbour Luxury Group.

What Makes a “Best Realtor” in Seaside?
Seaside operates differently from the broader 30A corridor. True mastery requires:
- Deep understanding of the 1987 Architectural Code and Type 7 lots
- Pricing based on competitive buyer bands—not price per square foot
- Understanding long-hold emotional and legacy value
- Experience navigating ARC, setbacks, and approvals
- Insight into luxury and second-home buyer behavior
Production is the only reliable indicator of this expertise.

Watercolor, Florida
WaterColor, Florida, founded in 2000, is a master-planned community that harmonizes natural beauty with modern luxury. Nestled along the Gulf of Mexico and Scenic Highway 30A, WaterColor was conceived as a sanctuary where residents and visitors could immerse themselves in nature while enjoying a vibrant community life.
Built on the principles of thoughtful design and environmental stewardship, it has become a premier destination for those seeking an elevated coastal lifestyle. Designed to preserve its natural surroundings, WaterColor is home to lush landscapes, coastal dunes, and one of Florida’s largest rare coastal dune lakes, Western Lake. These features are woven seamlessly into the town’s fabric, creating a unique blend of outdoor recreation, architectural beauty, and community spirit.
Seaside, Florida
Seaside was conceived at a time when the country had gone through a period of urbanization that created sprawl and a disconnected sense of place. At its genesis, Seaside sought to recreate walkable sociability and a scale of community that would be unto itself a place to call home.
Seaside is now beginning a renewal phase. In the commercial areas it is most visible, but there are new homes under construction even now and as in the last 8 years more than 24 homes have been renewed by reconstruction.
Our unique perspective as the only resident real estate professionals in the community and as developers of new homes in Seaside lets us help you understand where it is going. Join us for a chat and know Seaside, Florida better.

Rosemary, Florida
Rosemary Beach, founded in 1995, emerged as a community inspired by the principles of New Urbanism, blending architectural charm with a sense of place that fosters connection.
Nestled along Scenic Highway 30A, Rosemary Beach stands out with its European influences and coastal elegance, designed to be both timeless and uniquely Floridian. From the moment you arrive, its cobblestone streets, gas lanterns, and lush green spaces evoke a feeling that you have found a sanctuary that is as welcoming as it is beautiful.
Gayle originally settled on Rosemary Beach in 1996 as an original owner. There remains familial interest in Rosemary to this day. We are uniquely positioned knowing and having lived the history.
Seagrove Beach, Florida
Seagrove Beach is one of the original communities along 30A, where tradition meets timeless coastal living. It now has many unique communities.
Established in the 1940s, this vibrant area earned its name from the towering oaks, magnolias, and pines that form its natural canopy. Over the decades, Seagrove Beach has evolved into a harmonious blend of Old Florida charm and modern convenience, all while preserving its deep connection to the land and sea.
C.H. McGee purchased Seagrove 1st Addition from the original owner and then proceeded to create the rest of Old Seagrove cementing the legend of this area. Now protected with a neighborhood plan, the future is more secure.
Blue Mountain Beach, Florida
Blue Mountain Beach, named for its towering dunes—the highest along Florida’s Gulf Coast—and the native blue lupine flowers that once blanketed the area, is a tranquil enclave along Scenic Highway 30A.
This serene community blends natural beauty with a sense of escape, creating a place where life’s simplest joys take center stage. With every turn, it reveals the perfect balance between retreat and connection—a place that truly feels like home. With a prominent coastal dune lake, Blue Mountain is the go to spot for locals.
Now encompassing improved amenities, Blue Mountain Beach is home to The Preserve at Grayton Beach, Lakeside at Blue Mountain and Forest Lake to name a few.
Alys Beach, Florida
Alys Beach, an iconic coastal community along Florida’s scenic Highway 30A, was envisioned as a masterpiece of architecture and lifestyle.
Founded with a commitment to creating beauty and harmony, Alys Beach draws inspiration from Mediterranean and Bermudan design, blending timeless elegance with modern comforts. Since its inception, the community has stood out for its striking white facades, walkable streets, and dedication to sustainability and artistry.
