Florida Georgia Connection Team - Iron Valley Real Estate North Florida

We proudly serve families across Nassau County, North Jacksonville, and South Georgia, combining decades of real estate experience with genuine care and community values.

The Florida-Georgia Connection Team was founded by Kathy Levy, a seasoned Realtor® with decades of experience and a heart for serving others. What began as a one-woman show quickly grew into something more. When her daughter Julia Levy moved home from Charlotte, NC during the pandemic, Kathy introduced her to real estate, and it’s been history ever since.

Led by Kathy, a licensed Realtor® in Florida and Georgia, our team brings together professionals who are united by faith, family, and service. Whether you’re buying, selling, or relocating, we’re here to guide you every step of the way with clear communication, integrity, and a personalized experience that exceeds expectations.

Together, they’ve built a team of strong, knowledgeable women who share a passion for helping families build stability through homeownership. Licensed in both Florida and Georgia, we proudly serve Nassau County, Duval County, St. Johns County, and Camden County, GA.

Each member brings unique insight, dedication, and genuine care to every client. We believe real estate is about people, not just property, and that every home tells a story.

"Marcy exceeded our expectations during the search for our new home in the St. Mary’s area and the subsequent closing! We highly recommend Marcy based on this experience."

  -B Cortel, Client

"My husband and I were traveling to GA from out of state on a tight schedule to look at potential properties. Marcy spend several hours with us showing us options. She made the process easy and fun. Marcy is hands down one of the most helpful, knowledgeable, communicative, and kind Realtors I have ever worked with. We appreciated all her help, and without a doubt would use her again!"

  -Lean C., Client

"Marcy has been incredible. I wanted to purchase a lot in St. Marys, Ga. She managed to find a lot that was far better than the one I initially wanted and helped me get it for a better price. I later resold the lot and made a large profit on it. She is very good at knowing the price that a lot or house should go for and coming in at a reasonable offer. She has since then helped me purchase 3 other lots. She is extremely responsive and walks you through the entire process. She takes her time to make sure you are aware and comfortable with everything going on. I will always use her for my transactions going forward."

  -Mathew West, Client

"Marcy helped us purchase the lot when she was with another company, so when there were some life changes that required us to sell the lot, she was the first and only person we considered. She was knowledgeable about current state of the real estate market and steered us in the right direction when it came to listing the lot and the pricing she thought would help us sell. I would not hesitate to reach out to Marcy if I were going to be purchasing any property in the future."
