Jessica Lea: More Than a Realtor—
A Guide to Conscience Homeownership
With over 20 years of experience spanning commercial and residential construction, title insurance, commercial banking, accounting, and business management, I bring a holistic approach to real estate—one that fuses technical expertise with a deep respect for sustainability and conscious living.
Real estate isn’t just about transactions—it’s about creating spaces that uplift, empower, and align with a more intentional way of life. My background allows me to anticipate challenges before they arise, navigate complex processes with ease, and ensure that every client experiences a smooth, stress-free journey.
But beyond expertise, I believe in leading with integrity, connection, and vision. I’m here to do more than help you buy or sell—I’m here to guide you toward a home that truly supports your values, lifestyle, and future goals. Whether that means finding a space that allows you to raise backyard chickens, incorporate eco-conscious design, or invest in a property that aligns with your long-term sustainability goals, I am here to help you bring that vision to life.
When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me out in nature—rock climbing, kayaking, playing volleyball, or tending to my own small ecosystem at home. I believe in practicing what I preach, which is why my days often include gardening, caring for my chickens, or building my next green project.
As an active member of the Stillwater community, I dedicate my time to organizations that support housing, sustainability, and environmental preservation, including Pollinator Friendly Alliance, People Serving People, House of Charity, and Habitat for Humanity.
You deserve more than a transaction—you deserve a trusted advisor who understands your goals and values. If you’re looking for a real estate experience that’s aligned with integrity, sustainability, and long-term vision, let’s connect.
Let’s not just find you a house—let’s find you a home that supports your next chapter.
