Joan Pletcher

The Story Behind Everyone’s Favorite Realtor in Ocala The Difference Is Experience. Ocala is more than just a home to Joan. It’s her life. Since 1985, Joan has been helping to shape Ocala into the attractive destination it is today. “When I represent a piece of property it becomes a part of me.” So, it’s not surprising that somewhere between her joyful demeanor, strong work ethic, and southern hospitality, many clients become close friends of hers. She works hard to leverage her relationships and experience to provide the best realty expertise. “When I represent a piece of property, it becomes a part of me. Whether buying or selling, my goal is to have happy and satisfied customers, while maintaining the integrity of my business.” In fact, her involvement in the community stretches through to the Payton Training Center, the Florida Horse Park, and the Ocala/Marion County Chamber of Commerce. Why do so many favor Joan over other realtors? In short, she’s perfected her craft with over 40 years of experience in the Ocala real estate industry. “The Thoroughbred business brought my husband and I to Ocala and people went out of their way to make us feel welcome and they haven’t changed one bit.” It’s this kind of experience Joan continues to prioritize for her clients – a welcoming, personalized and effortless process to finding the best real estate in Ocala, Florida. “I love turning raw land into a development,” she says. “Not one where they bulldoze everything and squeeze in as many houses as possible. I’m talking about the kind of development that saves the trees and the integrity of the land to give people a home where everything is just perfect.” Then again, that’s what Joan is all about – making people happy – and oftentimes that requires more than just selling property.
