About Bob Melvin
Bob Melvin is the real estate sales leader in Boca Grande and Placida, as well as on the Cape Haze Peninsula for over a decade. Bob believes in making the island dream a reality for those looking to make the Gulf Coast area their home.
In 1983, Bob moved from Ocean Reef Club in Key Largo, Florida to the Boca Grande Club where he has sold numerous condos, luxury homes and land estates, along with various other properties. During the next 5 years, Bob solidified his reputation and stature as a top island real estate professional by working for Gulf to Bay Properties, helping to take the fledgling company to the top producing agency on Island. With that accomplishment under his belt, he continued to strive forward establishing Gasparilla Properties, which in the first year, was the top producing sales agency on the island. That trend has continued year after year as Gasparilla Properties now leads the entire area in real estate sales. Bob has had the opportunity to broker many multi-million dollar properties such as beach front, golf course and bay front residential homes, multi-family and commercial estates specializing in individual luxury for every client.
