Opening doors for changing lives.
In 1985, Judy Black opened her first real estate office in Windermere, Florida, calling it Main Street, REALTORS. Known for lakefront listings, a service-first mindset, and elevated professionalism, the company grew to 4 traditional offices and 120 talented professionals, selling close to 10,000 properties over 28 years.
​
In 2019, Judy and company opened UPSIDE Real Estate by reimagining the modern real estate office for accomplished real estate agents. UPSIDE may be introducing a fresh take on our profession, but it was born from a familiar mission... to open doors and help change the lives of the neighbors we serve.
