Jim McCallion
Co-Founder, Marketing Director

Hello. I’m Jim McCallion, Sanibel resident, former software company owner, father of four, and co-founder of McCallion & McCallion Realty.  My wife, Susan, and I joined forces to start our real estate practice on Sanibel Island back in 2012, and we are thrilled at how quickly the business has grown and expanded. You see, we wanted to “Do Real Estate Differently” - Breaking down the many aspects of a good real estate agent, and having specialized professionals work together to create the best home buying and selling experience for our customers. And it worked! Our clients continually express their gratitude for the great service we provide, which is what it’s all about.

More About Me: I’m a FLORIDIAN - Born just outside Chicago but raised in Southwest Florida. I remember when areas such as Bonita Springs and Estero were untouched swamplands, where I would go fishing and exploring as a boy. The development of Southwest Florida has been an exciting transformation to witness, and I enjoy sharing our history with those unfamiliar with the area.

With a background in technology, I owned and operated a software company in Miami for 10 years before moving to Sanibel Island. I quickly put my marketing and technology experience to practice, helping Susan and other business owners leverage the web in order to grow and prosper. Helping Susan’s real estate practice turned into a full-time job rather quickly, and I’m happy to say that opening our own business has been one of the most rewarding career decisions I’ve made.

Fun facts: I love photography, especially exploring new places and taking photos of my family enjoying life to the fullest. 

"Photography is the story I fail to put into words."
