For our team at Blue Marlin Realty Group, business is about more than selling real estate, it's about building relationships in the community we love and support.
"It's the culture of our people that are in this business," said Jerry Sullivan, broker associate. "We are not a big chain or national company. We are individualized to this area, and this town is supported by the locals."
As a boutique real estate company, Blue Marlin is small enough to know your name, but big enough to assist you with all of your buying or selling needs along the Emerald Coast
Our staff prides itself on being community minded, supporting a wide variety of charities throughout the Destin area, whether it's Little League Baseball, a local racecar driver, the continually growing Girls Night Out, or the Sacred Heart Foundation.
Blue Marlin partnered with Ruth's Chris Steakhouse for the grand opening of "Ruth's East Bar" Friday night and all of the event's proceeds benefited the Sacred Heart Foundation and the purchase of a PET/CT scanner. The imaging system is used to detect and diagnose cancer, while also monitoring cancer therapy and other diseases and neurological conditions.
Sullivan told The Log that donating toys to children in need is especially close to his heart. For the past two years, Blue Marlin has collected toy donations for the holidays.
"All families go through hard times, whether it's a death, an illness or financially," he said. "Christmas is a time for family and spending time with one another, and sometimes your community becomes your family."
"If a family for whatever reason can't have what others can and they are suffering, we want to help," Sullivan added. "We saw the excitement in the faces of those children, and the excitement in the faces of our family, friends and clients as they brought in toys."
As a locally owned company, we know the importance of supporting fellow small businesses that add the local flavor to Destin. Whether it's the Destin Water Taxi or the local restaurants, they are vital to the city's success.
"It's the heart of everything that Blue Marlin is about," Leslie Sullivan said.
