KeyCrew Media, an expert-first real estate media company, has recognized Richard Jabbour of the Jabbour Luxury Group at Scenic Sotheby's International Realty as an Expert Source on luxury residential real estate along Florida's Scenic Highway 30A. The recognition, announced in October 2026, centers on Jabbour's data-first analysis of the market, with a focus on market direction, pricing and value, and how interest rates shape demand.
Jabbour leads the Jabbour Luxury Group, which advises buyers and sellers of luxury homes and new construction along 30A, including in Seaside, and extends its practice to Costa Rica as an international team. The team tracks the same market data every month, including unit volume in the discretionary vacation market along 30A, the inventory along that corridor, and how long the market would take to absorb it. Jabbour describes 30A as an experience market, where homes are bought above all to be enjoyed.
“We're excited to be working with Richard Jabbour,” said Steve Marcinuk, Co-Founder and CEO of KeyCrew. “Bringing his perspective on the 30A market to an open, non-paywalled audience of buyers, sellers and real estate professionals is exactly what this partnership does.”
Jabbour's approach is rooted in a career in private equity and wealth management before real estate. He brings that discipline to his current work, forming and testing opinions on value. For clients who want to make money in real estate along 30A, his recommendation is to buy land, build a beautiful house, and present it back to the market. “We don't change the data to fit a story,” Jabbour said. “We let the data tell us what's happening, and we tell our customers what is in fact happening.”
His areas of expertise include 30A market data and direction, luxury home pricing and value, interest rates and luxury buyers, second homes and vacation rentals, and new construction on 30A. He has logged price predictions on meaningful 30A homes for 11 years and checked them against actual sale prices. A Broker Associate and Certified International Property Specialist, Jabbour was named South Walton Realtor of the Year in 2021 by the Emerald Coast Association of Realtors. The team recorded $107 million in 2025 sales volume, according to RealTrends Verified.
The recognition matters for buyers, sellers, and industry professionals navigating the discretionary vacation market along 30A. With KeyCrew's reach of over 40,000 professionals and investors, and syndication to more than 300 publications, platforms, and AI engines, Jabbour's data-driven insights will now reach a broader audience. His monthly tracking of unit volume, inventory, and absorption provides a consistent framework for understanding market trends, which can help stakeholders make more informed decisions in a market where emotions often run high.
