About Jen

Jen Hayes, Realtor® – Compass Florida

Your trusted guide to buying and selling in St. Johns County & beyond

Jen Hayes combines her deep love for the First Coast with a talent for solving complex problems and making real estate seamless for her clients. As a Realtor® with Compass, she draws on her business acumen, design sense, and personal commitment to help buyers find their dream homes and sellers maximize their investment.

Before real estate, Jen spent years in the corporate world, where she led multi-million-dollar projects, negotiated favorable contracts, and kept her cool under the pressure of company acquisitions and tight deadlines. That experience gave her unmatched negotiation skills, a sharp eye for detail, and the ability to manage even the trickiest transactions with confidence. Today, her clients benefit from her expertise, her insider knowledge of the area, and her creative marketing strategies that help listings stand out.

A Jacksonville native and Florida State University alumna (Go ’Noles!), Jen relocated several times across the U.S. before returning to St. Augustine to raise her family. She believes so strongly in this area as the best place to live that she not only invests here herself, but has convinced most of her extended family to call it home too!

Jen is also a familiar face around the community — volunteering at her children’s schools, as well as serving on neighborhood, condo association, scouting, and community theatre boards.  Outside of work, you’ll likely find her exploring new restaurants, catching a show or concert, boating, diving, traveling, or just enjoying everything St. Johns County has to offer with family and friends.

When you work with Jen, you’ll find she’s approachable, resourceful, and truly invested in your success — whether you’re buying your first home, moving up, downsizing, or selling your biggest asset.
