The Vermeer Group matches military families with real estate teams that we personally trust across the nation.

As a military spouse, I've learned something crucial about building a sustainable business: geography can't be my limitation. Instead of trying to be the realtor in every new market, I became the guide who connects military families with the best local experts wherever they're headed.

Please reach out if you have any questions at all or I can help connect you to trusted real estate professionals nationwide. I get calls, texts and emails everyday from families just like yours, looking for help on making their move and buying/selling their home - and I absolutely love it!
