Lisa Jones
Lisa Jones works with clients who want a thoughtful, well-executed approach to buying or selling—especially when a move involves more than just a change of address.
Originally from Rhode Island, Lisa moved to Florida in 2000, where she built her real estate career, launching in 2007, in the midst of one of the most challenging real estate markets in history. She went on to become a top-producing agent and, in 2015, opened and led her own boutique brokerage in Minneola. After more than two decades away, she returned to Rhode Island with a strong foundation in negotiation, pricing strategy, and market positioning.
Lisa works with both sellers and buyers, bringing a steady, strategic approach to each side of the transaction. She helps sellers think through how their home will be received by the market, looking closely at pricing, presentation, and positioning, telling the right story and creating the conditions for strong offers, while guiding buyers with clear communication, market context, and practical insight to help them move confidently in competitive situations.
She is also building a focus around relocation, working with clients who are making a move into Rhode Island and want a grounded understanding of the area. Having made that transition herself, Lisa brings a practical perspective to the process—what it feels like to land somewhere new, how to get oriented quickly, and how to make confident decisions without being physically present for every step.
Known for being direct, responsive, and consistent, Lisa values clarity over pressure and believes clients make better decisions when they have the right information—not just more of it. She holds the GRI, SFR, and SRS designations and brings both experience and perspective to her work.
Deeply connected to the community, Lisa is active with organizations including the Women’s Fund of Rhode Island and The Avenue Concept, where she serves on the board of directors. Her long-standing ties to the state—growing up in Riverside, living throughout Providence, and now residing on the East Side—give her clients both local insight and a genuine connection to the area.
She still remembers where Almacs used to be and won’t turn down a Del’s in the summer—small details that reflect a lasting connection to the place she once left and chose to return to.
