If you're searching for a trusted Venice, Florida Realtor with deep local knowledge, proven results, and a reputation built on relationships, welcome. I'm Julie Willett, a Broker Associate with NextHome Excellence and a top-producing Realtor specializing in Venice, Wellen Park, North Port, Nokomis, Osprey, Sarasota, Englewood, Port Charlotte, and surrounding Southwest Florida communities.
For more than 28 years, I've proudly called this area home. I've watched neighborhoods grow from empty fields into thriving communities, giving my clients insight that simply can't be learned from market reports or online data. My roots here run deep, and I use that local knowledge every day to help buyers, sellers, retirees, second-home owners, and investors make confident real estate decisions.
Throughout my career, I've successfully guided hundreds of buyers and sellers through the purchase and sale of Florida real estate. Whether you're searching for a luxury home in Wellen Park, a waterfront property in Venice, new construction in North Port, a golf community in Sarasota, or a maintenance-free villa in Nokomis or Osprey, I provide expert guidance backed by experience, strong negotiation skills, and a commitment to exceptional service.
My specialties include:
- Venice, Florida homes for sale

My business philosophy is simple: Humans Over Houses. Every transaction represents someone's next chapter, and I never lose sight of that. While I leverage cutting-edge technology, AI-powered marketing, professional photography, cinematic video, social media, and targeted digital advertising to maximize exposure for my listings, I believe real estate will always be a people business.
Clients consistently choose me because they appreciate honest communication, strategic advice, responsive service, and a calm, knowledgeable advocate throughout the buying or selling process. I don't believe in high-pressure sales. I believe in educating my clients, protecting their interests, and helping them make decisions they'll feel good about years from now.
As a longtime local resident, I'm also a resource for far more than real estate. I help newcomers understand neighborhoods, schools, builders, flood zones, insurance considerations, HOA communities, lifestyle options, local businesses, restaurants, beaches, golf courses, boating, and everything that makes Florida's Gulf Coast such an incredible place to live.
