This article uses insights from the full episode transcript at tracyhayespodcast.com/61.

A Relentless Professional with a Property Management Edge

Tiea began her real estate journey at just 18, driven by curiosity and grit. From on-site leasing to broker-owner of Next Level Real Estate, she built her business through consistency, advocacy, and deep operational knowledge. Her extensive background in property management sets her apart in a market where investment and rental properties are a key segment.

“I've been doing this my entire adult life... I had to fight for people to take me seriously at 25 managing half-million-dollar properties. But over time, my results spoke louder than my age.”【14†Tiea Vincent 61.txt†L17-L18】

Tiea is also a powerful advocate within the real estate community. From serving on the NEFAR board to championing local initiatives like Best Buddies and Hunger Fight, her impact goes well beyond transactions.

“Power in Numbers”: Quotes That Reveal Her Strength

"I knew I wanted a seat at the table... not the head, just a seat where I could make things better."

“I get emails from people I’ve never met asking if I still do property management... it’s all from the content I put out years ago. That’s the power of showing up.”

“Everything’s great—until it’s not. And that’s when they realize they needed a property manager all along.”

Jacksonville to St. Augustine: Local Knowledge Runs Deep

Tiea operates with strategic insight across Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and St. Johns County. From understanding tenant-landlord law to navigating insurance requirements and local ordinances, she delivers concierge-level guidance to investors and landlords alike.

She explains why Jacksonville and its surrounding areas attract long-term investors:

• Jacksonville: Strong rental demand, military relocation traffic

• St. Augustine: Historic value, short-term rental hotspots (with tricky zoning)

• St. Johns County: Top schools, family-driven housing, and new construction growth

Real Stories from the Field

1. From Lease to Leadership: Tiea’s career began with a simple question during a lease signing: "Are you hiring?" That hustle eventually launched her into property management and later into brokerage ownership.

2. A House Fire and a Fast Turnaround: After a July 4th fire burned down half of a tenant’s rental home, Tiea had the home rebuilt and reoccupied in just eight weeks. “A typical owner would have no idea where to start. That’s why you hire us.”【14†Tiea Vincent 61.txt†L34-L35】

3. Saying No to Eviction Risks: She takes pride in her eviction rate—just 4 tenants in 18 years from her own placements. One story she shares is about an owner ignoring her advice for three years. “Now they’re finally paying for it.”【14†Tiea Vincent 61.txt†L37-L38】

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What makes Northeast Florida attractive to property investors?
Strong rental demand, a growing population, and military-driven relocation activity make Jacksonville, Nocatee, and St. Augustine top investment areas.

Q: Should I hire a property manager if I only own one property?

Q: What insurance should a landlord carry?

Absolutely. The region continues to see strong demand from military, out-of-state relocations, and working professionals.
