An investment recommendation from Ed Ball, sometimes controversial and always iconic developer of Northwest Florida, is what brought Thomas A. Barba to the Gulf Breeze area from Boca Raton around 1956. It’s unknown if Ball was just looking for some cast from some of his holdings, or if he wanted to help breed new investors for the area, but Barba hit on the offer to buy Ball’s land spanning the Sound to the Bay. He moved his family to the area, bringing his beautiful daughter Claire, with him. Roberty Montgomery worked for a land sales company in Gulf Breeze. Soon, he became aware of an opportunity to establish the area’s first radio station, and started WAJB in the early 70s. Montgomery moved on to the next big challenge, acquiring his brokerage license to help his father-in-law develop the Tiger Point community and golf course, working with land planner Harry Baldwin and course designer Bill Arnick to create the Tiger Point Country Club. And the development needed sewer and water services, so he worked with his father in law and partners to build the utility company as well, Santa Rosa Shores Utility. “This business has changed so much over the years,” he says. “Real Estate used to demand a physical presence. With cell phones and the internet, you are now able to be anywhere to get the calls and service the client. People need smaller locations, and many actually work out of their home exclusively. We will be consolidating our offices.” “What is the best thing I’ve ever done? I’m most proud that I am able to continue a generational commitment and the legacy to this community,” Montgomery says. “I am so very happy that my son, Rob, is going to continue the family business. And I know he will do it with the same spirit of innovation and commitment to excellence that my father in law started.” Montgomery Realtors Montgomery Realtors offers the Premier Real Estate experience in performance and service.
