Led by industry veterans Matt Bobby, Ron Lennen, and Ellen Taracido, our elite team combines decades of local market knowledge with Compass's cutting-edge technology to deliver exceptional results for the region's most discerning clients.
Matt Bobby brings 21+ years of Fort Lauderdale real estate wisdom and a strategic, tech-savvy approach from his former IT career. As a Graduate, Realtor Institute (GRI) designee and member of the exclusive Master Brokers Forum, Matt also has his MBA from Miami University of Ohio. His commitment to client success has earned him recognition as a top-producing agent.
Ron Lennen’s 34+ years of excellence in waterfront, luxury properties and condominiums have established him as a powerhouse in South Florida real estate. He is a consistent RealTrends America’s Best Real Estate Agents award recipient.
What Ron Lennen brings to the table
1. Deep experience in your exact market
- He’s been selling real estate in South Florida for 34+ years, with a heavy focus on Fort Lauderdale / Lighthouse Point / Pompano Beach waterfront / luxury properties
- That matters more than anything—pricing and positioning in this market isn’t generic
2. Proven track record at higher price points
- Documented sales ranging from roughly $400K up to $6M+
- Average deal size is around $2.6M, which tells you he operates comfortably in the upper tier
- Has handled multiple multi-million dollar transactions, not just one-off wins
👉 Translation: He’s not learning on your listing
3. Strong industry credibility
- President of Greater Fort Lauderdale Realtors 2017 where he played a key role in facilitating a merger creating the 3rd largest Realtor association in the country
- President Broward Palm Beaches & St. Lucie Realtors 2018
- Longtime Director with National Association of Realtors and Florida Realtors
- Named Realtor of the Year (2019) locally
👉 That level of involvement usually means:
- Strong agent network (critical for finding buyers)
- Respect among peers (helps negotiations)
4. Marketing + network advantage
- Works under Compass Florida, which is known for high-end marketing and tech-driven exposure
- His client base includes high-net-worth and international buyers
👉 In luxury or waterfront, exposure and connections = money
What clients say (the good and the real)
Positive themes:
- “Brings qualified buyers”
- “Very responsive and detail-oriented”
- “Knows how to position a home for best price”
How that translates to selling YOUR home
He’s a strong fit if:
- You’re in Fort Lauderdale / Lighthouse / Pompano Beach areas
- Your property is $1M+ or waterfront / luxury
- You want pricing discipline + negotiation strength, not just someone to “list it and hope”
Bottom line
Ron Lennen isn’t just another agent—he’s a seasoned, high-end dealmaker with serious local influence
That said, hiring him won’t magically sell your house. What he can do—if your home is priced and positioned right—is:
- Attract stronger buyers
- Negotiate harder
- Avoid leaving money on the table
