Pruitt-Gann Group | Freeport FL Real Estate Experts
Like many, I came to the Emerald Coast on vacation and instantly fell in love. But unlike most, I made the leap—packing up my Texas roots and moving my family to the stunning shores of Santa Rosa Beach in 2013. I’m a proud Texas native, southern to the core (yes, sweet tea included), and I bring that same warmth and hospitality into everything I do.
Before stepping into real estate, I spent 14 years as a Sales & Marketing Director for a multi-million-dollar computer software company. That experience gave me a strong foundation in negotiation, strategic marketing, and client service—skills that seamlessly translated when I earned my real estate license and began helping families make their own coastal dreams come true.
My journey has had its trials. I’m a Stage 4 cancer survivor and became a widow in 2021 after losing my husband of 19 years to leukemia. But God wasn’t finished writing my story. In 2023, I married Richard Gann—an incredible man who wasn’t afraid to walk this path with me, side by side.
Today, I’m a proud mom to three grown children, “GiGi” to seven amazing grandbabies, and dog-mom to a very spoiled Boxer. I consider it a gift to work closely with families during such important moments in their lives. Whether buying, selling, or investing, my goal isn’t just to close deals—it’s to build lasting friendships along the way.
If you’re looking for a real estate professional who goes above and beyond—and has the heart to prove it—I’d be honored to work with you.
My Client-First Philosophy
Real estate isn’t just about contracts and closings—it’s about people. That’s why my approach is rooted in putting clients first, every single time.
Yes, I bring the tools you’d expect: strong local market knowledge, top-notch marketing strategies, skilled negotiations, and a wide professional network. But more importantly, I bring accessibility, transparency, and heart. I listen closely, communicate clearly, and always respond quickly—because your needs matter.
Staying ahead in this fast-paced market means constantly improving how I do business. I use the latest technologies to make the process faster, smoother, and more efficient—without ever losing the personal touch.
At the end of the day, integrity guides everything I do. If you’re looking for someone you can trust with one of life’s biggest decisions, I’d love to meet you. Let’s grab coffee and talk about your goals—and how I can help you reach them.
Hi, I’m Bethany.
My family and I traded Colorado’s mountains for the beaches of 30A, and I approached that move the same way I approach real estate today. I did the homework. I studied neighborhoods, schools, market trends, and the local spots that make a place truly feel like home.
Now I use that same diligence and heart to guide my clients.
Whether you’re relocating full-time, searching for a vacation home, or investing in a rental property, I believe the process should feel clear, thoughtful, and well supported. You deserve honest guidance, strong communication, and someone working behind the scenes to protect your investment and your peace of mind.
Because finding a house is one thing. Finding home is something else entirely.
Let’s find home together. I can’t wait to help you start your next chapter!
