Jason Patiño | Military Relocation Professional (MRP) | Pinellas & Hillsborough County Realtor

Florida native and certified Military Relocation Professional specializing in PCS moves, VA loans, and military family relocations in Pinellas and Hillsborough Counties. As Senior Director of Recruitment and Director of Mentorship with LPT Realty's elite Military Vet Team and 2024 Top Realtor of the Year, I've personally listed and sold over 100 homes while managing and mentoring hundreds of transactions since 2017, serving service members, veterans, and their families with expert guidance on home buying, selling, vacation rentals, and annual rental properties near MacDill Air Force Base, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, and Tampa Bay.

I train realtors daily from 9-11 AM on real estate best practices and lead generation, sharing proven strategies that drive results. As owner of Jason's Vacation Rentals, I bring hands-on property management experience to help clients maximize rental income and navigate both short-term vacation rental investments and long-term annual rental opportunities. Active member of the Dunedin, Treasure Island, and Madeira Beach Chambers of Commerce, and proud participant in Realtors for Ron—supporting Governor Ron DeSantis at press conferences throughout the Tampa Bay Area.

Whether you're relocating to Florida on military orders, transitioning from active duty, seeking investment properties, or searching for the perfect vacation or annual rental, I provide specialized support that honors your service with local expertise, VA loan knowledge, rental market insights, and understanding of military timelines.

Serving buyers, sellers, investors, renters, and aspiring real estate professionals across Florida with integrity and proven results.
