Welcome to Paradise!

As the long-time owner of a Real Estate Company in Germany’s picturesque Rhine Area, providing a top-notch personalized, concierge-level service has always been a priority for Heike Brown, the Broker-Owner of Islanders International LLC.

After relocating to Florida, she obtained the Florida Real Estate Broker-Owner License, and the prestigious Graduate REALTOR® Institute (GRI) Designation along with membership in the National Association of REALTORS® – the highest qualifications in the Real Estate industry.
