Vlado Konatar | Kona Realty

Vlado has been passionate about real estate from an early age. It was in fact his father, a New Jersey builder and developer, who introduced him to the complex yet rewarding world of real estate. He often brought Vlado to meetings with subcontractors and open houses, which as Vlado recalls, was the best learning experience. Ever since, he’s been inspired to start his own business in real estate. 

At age 20, Vlado moved to Sarasota and built his first home. Young, but unusually experienced, he got his real estate license and Kona Realty was born. It wasn’t long before Vlado’s company broke significant sales records and rose to prominence – which naturally brought along more complex and significant projects. What’s even more impressive is the fact that all business Kona Realty gets is 100% by referral. 

Today, at just 30 years old, Vlado has led Kona Realty to become one of the fastest-growing brokerages in the area, with over 110 million dollars of real estate inventory under management. Its main focus is on new construction, high rises, and commercial projects. Featuring an impressive network of buyers and investors, construction expertise, and full-service in-house sales and marketing, Kona Realty has the capacity to tackle even the most ambitious projects. One such project under their sales management is the Evolution, luxury high-rise condominiums in downtown Sarasota, which is paving the way for other exciting projects of similar (and higher) caliber. “I am very proud to say that our next project is on Longboat Key, and it will be announced in the coming months” Vlado says with a smile. 

One thing is certain—the sky is the limit for this young professional, and we have a suspicion that the best is yet to come as he continues to raise the bar of what’s possible in real estate.
