Jay Massey

I am a native of Savannah, born at the Forsyth Park Hospital, and grew up in nearby Richmond Hill, where my parents opened the first grocery store at the Henry Ford Commissary. I learned the value of strong customer service and care from an early age working in that grocery store, a trait I proudly provide to all my clients. Attending the Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York City opened my eyes to the world, and I spent an early career in the music industry of Los Angeles. After a while, I found myself missing the Lowcountry and I returned home to Savannah to launch my career in real estate. Throughout my 20 years in real estate, I have successfully navigated and pioneered numerous development projects, historic restorations, tax credit rehabilitation, land conservation easements, and assisted clients with 1031 Tax exchanges. I am passionate about the real estate market and love the essence of “home”. In 2015, my husband James and I launched Massey Martin Design, an award-winning residential design firm here in Savannah. Under the new leadership of Daniel Ravenel, Sotheby’s International Realty, we are proud to serve the Savannah Area with the Massey Martin Realty Group. The Massey Martin Realty Group strives to create remarkable experiences for all of our clients. From downtown historic properties to the surrounding coastal area, our extensive knowledge of the ever-changing market has allowed us to serve residents and investors with sage advice and detailed market information at every point of a transaction. We are dedicated professionals, who also love to laugh and strive to make the real estate experience fun for all. I greatly enjoy giving back to the community of Savannah as much as possible, volunteering with local charities such as the Historic Savannah Foundation, Alzheimer’s Foundation, & Savannah’s Philharmonic. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, exploring and traveling to new destinations, and researching and learning history.
