Tampa Bay’s Overheard: Bye Bye Bri

Multiple WAVE Award-winning realtor and community advocate Brian Longstreth has announced a change in ownership for St. Petersburg’s Your Neighborhood Realty.

“Change in the Neighborhood! After 19 years as the Broker-Owner of Your Neighborhood Realty, it’s time to pass the reigns to Julie Apted-Longstreth,” Longstreth shared via social media in early March. “Julie and husband Jim are taking over with the opening of Your Neighborhood Realty Associates, Inc. in the same location at 2440 Central Avenue.”

Longstreth subsequently praised the duo’s work ethic and noted that “when we opened the Grand Central Office in 2000, many people thought we were crazy. While that is probably still true, it’s been exciting to see the growth of the Grand Central District and surrounding neighborhoods over the years.”

The 26-year real estate vet shared that he’ll stay active as a Broker Associate, but borrowed Representative Maxine Waters’ line to note that he’s “reclaiming my time.” He also offered a special thank you to family and friends for their years of support. Congrats, Brian!
