Bayport Property Group is a Punta Gorda brokerage for people who want straight answers: what your home is worth, what that canal house will really cost to own, and who is actually going to answer the phone after closing.
Bayport started in mortgages. Our founder, Daniel Hughes, has spent more than a decade in mortgage lending, and our affiliated company BayPort Lending has helped Southwest Florida families and investors finance homes across the region. That financing DNA taught us what sales-only brokerages often skip: what a home actually costs to hold — rate, insurance, flood zone, HOA — not just what it costs to buy.
That financing-first view runs through everything we do. We price homes like people who will be accountable for the answer, and we tell buyers the whole story — flood zone, HOA reserves, milestone inspections — before they write the offer, not after. And our newest division, property management, is built the same way: modern software, transparent statements, and broker-owned accountability.
Sales, rentals, and property management under one roof at 265 E Marion Avenue, with an affiliated lending company for clients who choose to use it. The pieces of a real estate life — buy, finance, rent out, sell — handled by a team that already knows your file.
We are deliberately local. No national franchise playbook, no relocation call center. When you call (941) 424-0186, someone who knows the difference between Deep Creek and PGI picks up.
Bayport recruits and trains dual-licensed professionals — Florida real estate agents who also hold NMLS loan originator licenses. For clients, that means the person showing you houses genuinely understands what each one does to your monthly payment.
Bayport is built for dual-licensed professionals — competitive splits plus a path to NMLS licensing that most brokerages cannot offer. Let’s talk.
