Jamie Taylor

Jamie Taylor and is the Owner and Principal Broker of Bluebird Realty in Central Arkansas, serving all communities from Conway to Hot Springs! She started in the real estate field right out of high school and at 18 years old, Jamie was able to dive in to real estate appraisal, which is where she spent the next several years! Jamie did not obtain a real estate license until 2013, nearly 10-years after beginning her appraisal career and only really to help family make a few moves across state. As a southern California native, after moving and working in Las Vegas, Nevada through one of the most torrential economic times the US has ever seen with respect to the housing market, Jamie moved to Arkansas to be closer to her relocated family and fell in love with the Natural State.

In 2017, Jamie began to work hard at trying her hand being a Realtor – testing her sales ability in the first 6-months of her career and proving that relationships are what matter in real estate. No amount of purchased leads can make a truly successful agent, with her business being built 100% on the focus, drive, attention and care she spent on her clients and building relationships with them. After a very successful first year and a half, Jamie decided alongside her husband and their team, that she wanted to own and operate a brokerage of her own where she could teach others not just her advanced skill set, but how to have and maintain a positive mindset, how to brand themselves and market their business and how to take clients through the process of buying, selling and investing with confidence, excitement and joy! Real estate is something that doesn’t just provide you shelter at home, but can create wealth and provide security. No matter what your goals in real estate entail, Jamie can help you reach them – let her take you under her wing!
