Convinced that owning real estate creates wealth, Judy Gibbons is an owner of rental properties and a successful Airbnb in Lakeside, Michigan. “I walk the walk and talk the talk,” she quips. Her goals include creating a legacy for her family. She has been a top producer in the Chicago metropolitan area for 18 years and shares her love of Illinois and Southwest Michigan real estate with friends and family.

Gibbons and her husband fell in love in — and with — Harbor Country 22 years ago, and now have five children and two grandchildren who love to enjoy all the area has to offer. She leverages the global power of Sotheby’s International Realty alongside her proven local knowledge to consistently provide her clients a world class experience. With a deep understanding of marketing and the business of real estate, she relishes her role as a real estate advisor. “As a ‘lifestyle’ real estate agent, helping others reach their real estate goals is a true honor,” Gibbons says.

Known for her expert guidance, Gibbons has a style that’s straightforward. “I have experience and firsthand knowledge,” she says. “I care for my clients with my concierge service for every customer at any price, which is a winning combination.” With determination, energy and drive, she treats others with respect, because she believes in karma. “I’ve made some of my best friends and get so much joy from helping people with their real estate needs,” she adds. “We all know that relationships make the world go around.”

Gibbons is a member of the Harbor Country Chamber of Commerce. She models leading with a giving hand to her more than 30,000 social media followers and enjoys showing off area restaurants, antiquing and spending time on beautiful Lake Michigan in her free time.
