About

Hudson Willis

My name is Mitch Willis, and I’m a licensed Florida Realtor. I’d love to invite you to get to know me better, whether you’ve known me for years or are meeting me for the first time. My life has been shaped by experiences that reflect my strong values, and I believe in offering every client a personal, caring touch. As the Apostle Paul said, "I am what I am by the Grace of God." My Roots I grew up in Liberty County, Florida, where everyone knew everyone, and nobody was left behind. That sense of community and caring has deeply influenced who I am. I’ve always believed in helping others, and as your Realtor, you’ll see that reflected in our interactions. My family owned a retail grocery and hardware business, where I learned one of life’s most important lessons early on: “Take care of your customers, and they’ll come back.” It worked for our family business, and it’s something I carry with me today in my real estate career. Professional Background Before transitioning into real estate, I served in law enforcement for 10 years. I earned a BS degree in Law Enforcement from Florida State University in 1997, and my time in that field taught me the importance of trust, integrity, and following the rules—principles that are just as critical in real estate. Upholding ethical standards in every transaction is something I’m committed to, ensuring that my clients have smooth and successful experiences. I have had the privilege of running my family’s business, which gave me a deep connection to my community. I’ve also served as a board member for the Liberty Chamber of Commerce for 15 years and on the Bristol City Council. These roles have expanded my understanding of how a property’s location can affect its value and use, giving me the ability to provide valuable insights to my clients. What You Can Expect When you work with us, you can expect a smooth, stress-free process. My goal is to make buying or selling a home enjoyable. We’ll work at your pace, and you’ll never feel rushed or pressured into decisions you’re not comfortable with. Heather, my wife and business partner, is always ready to help with staging your home for sale, ensuring you present it in the best possible way. My laid-back and compassionate personality helps me connect with clients and truly understand their needs. At the same time, I’m a strong advocate for my clients during negotiations, always ensuring they are represented with integrity. My background in law enforcement has ingrained in me a strong commitment to professionalism and the legal standards that guide real estate. Personal Note On a personal note, I’ve been married to my beautiful wife, Heather, for 26 years. She is undoubtedly the “better half” of our team, handling social media and serving as the guest relations manager for Breathe Easy Rentals and Easy Vacation Services. We also have a wonderful daughter who is a licensed cosmetologist and is working towards becoming a Florida Realtor.

Client FAQs

Are there any fees associated with this referral service?

No, there is no cost to use our referral service.

Am I obligated to work with an agent once I submit the request form?

Not at all. Submitting a request does not create any obligation to work with a referred agent. While we carefully vet the professionals on our platform and know you’ll be in good hands, you are always free to decide whether the relationship is the right fit for you.

What selection criteria is used for the platform’s agents?

Our agents are vetted extensively to meet our rigorous standards. For an in-depth overview of this criteria, please visit the ‘Standard’ section.

Is Southlight affiliated with a brokerage?

No, Southlight is an independent platform and is not owned or affiliated with any single brokerage, allowing us to connect clients with trusted, area-specific experts.

What does it cost to work with an agent?

In most cases, real estate agents are compensated through a commission based on a percentage of the final sale price of the property, typically ranging from 5% to 6% total, which is often split between the listing agent and the buyer’s agent. Commission rates can vary by market and are always discussed and agreed upon before representation begins.

Who typically uses your referral platform?

Our clients include Florida residents, individuals relocating from out of state or abroad, retirees, seasonal residents (snowbirds) and investors seeking trusted local real estate representation.

How is this platform different from other referral options?

Our platform provides clients with direct access to Florida’s most highly recommended local real estate agents. Unlike traditional referral websites with open participation, our agents are hand-selected through a rigorous vetting process to ensure exceptional expertise, professionalism, and consistently outstanding client experiences.

With only one highly recommended agent in each sub-region, what happens if they’re not available to take on new clients?

We closely monitor the number of introductions each agent receives to ensure they can properly serve every client. If an agent’s availability becomes limited, we temporarily pause new introductions and feature another highly recommended local agent until availability returns. Our goal is to make sure every client receives attentive, high-quality service and that there is always a highly recommended agent available to serve our clients.
