Real Estate Advisor
FTL Home Guide started as a one-stop resource for all things Fort Lauderdale real estate: neighborhood insight, market analysis and honest advice for buyers, sellers, investors and families relocating to the area. It’s led by Jeremy Hanson, a Realtor® with Coldwell Banker Realty.
Jeremy Hanson is a Fort Lauderdale-based real estate advisor with Coldwell Banker Realty, serving Broward, Miami-Dade and Palm Beach counties. On the residential side, he works with condos, single-family and waterfront homes. On the commercial side, he focuses on industrial, multifamily and office property. In 2025 he was named to Coldwell Banker Realty’s International President’s Circle, which places him in the top 4% of the company’s agents.
In Fort Lauderdale, Jeremy focuses on Victoria Park, Rio Vista, Poinsettia Heights, Coral Ridge and Fort Lauderdale Beach, along with the isles off Las Olas. He has closed multi-million-dollar residential and commercial transactions across all three counties, and through FTL Home Guide he shares neighborhood insight and market analysis for buyers, sellers and families relocating to the area.
He came to real estate six years ago after 15 years in sales, branding and retail operations, including national sales leadership roles. Originally from Syracuse, New York, he has lived in South Florida for about 20 years and lives in Fort Lauderdale with his wife and daughter.
His approach is advisory, not sales-driven. He weighs return on investment against quality of life, flags what a listing leaves out, from special assessments to the tower going up next door, and tells clients plainly when a deal isn’t right for them.

How I Work
I start by learning how you want to live and what you need the move to do for you, whether that’s a better commute, more space, water access or a sound investment. From there, I narrow the options to the neighborhoods and properties that genuinely fit, and I’m upfront about the trade-offs, from a building’s special assessment to a price that’s higher than the market supports. I can go as deep into the numbers as you want or keep it simple, but you’ll always get my honest opinion, even when that means telling you not to do a deal. My job is to give you the full picture and the guidance to make a decision you’ll still feel good about years from now, with no pressure and no sales pitch along the way.
