MILITARY LISTEN UP! This is your best choice! Easily one of the best moves I have ever made. Dawn and her team are one of the most personable, patient, and responsive teams I have had the pleasure of working with. From the front desk all the way up to the CEO. No arbitrary fee’s or sneaky tactics. They form great tenant relationships! Charlotte was my property manager, and she has been a HUGE help. Going so far as to advocate for my situation and figuring out how they as a company could genuinely help me. It may seem trivial to them but to me it was a sign of compassion rarely seen in the industry

I have been involved with hundreds of real estate transactions over the last 24 years, and this is the smoothest transaction I have been involved with for years. Dawn and the team at Back Stage Realty were exceeding expectations from the very first meeting, and it only got better from there.
We had some minor repair issues that needed to be taken care of in the house (wood rot, electrical, new water heater, etc), and she took care of and coordinated all of that. From any other realtor, I would expect to get a list of things that need to be done, followed by “let us know when it’s finished”

I want to say so many good things about Dawn Johnson and Backstage Realty group.
I grew up with my father in real estate and have done numerous transactions in my life and have never run into a realtor so organized and ahead of every detail.
Dawn took all the stress away.
She had someone to do repairs for us and was always letting us know what to expect next.
What a pleasure to work with a true professional who cares about her clients.
I would give her 10 stars if I could.

Dawn was amazing! She was very knowledgeable, dependable, reliable, compassionate, understanding, and willing to go above and beyond to help me. She even brought me a coffee after some issues that had occurred. She jumped into action immediately to help me and brought coffee; doesn't get much better than that for this girl! I highly recommend Dawn Johnson and her company Back Stage Realty. We closed on my home March 16, 2020! She had a wealth of knowledge with the behind the scenes things, the walk through, and closing with the Title Company and Lender. Thank you so much Dawn!

We have 3 rental properties that Lisa & Dawn manage and we're extremely happy with how our business is handled! They answer our questions, hear our concerns and take care of our investments. We love them!

We worked with Back Stage Realty twice, specifically Dawn Johnson, and both times she made us feel like we were her number one priority. We are a military family and, unfortunately, after we were already under contract on our first house, our orders changed and we were rerouted! She was so gracious and we even kept in contact.
Three years later, we were moving back again. Of course, she was my first choice! Dawn made several trips to take photos and videos for us, so we put an offer in before we even moved to Florida. She got us into a beautiful home, at a great price! Dawn traveled quite a ways

We have been working with Dawn and her amazing team for over a year looking for the perfect house for our family! Even though they got no compensation or recognition, Dawn helped us find our dream house in another area and helped us navigate the process. She is also our listing agent for our house and has helped us with the upgrading of our house to make sure we get the best price possible by strategically upgrading areas that have the most impact! I can not recommend this office any higher! If you are looking to buy or sell on the Emerald Coast, you can't go wrong with the team at Backstage

From the perspective of a renter, this company is a nightmare. Stacie is rude and scary to work with (even if you are trying to do what’s best for the owner). Her superiors are aware of her lousy customer service, yet do nothing.

We rented from Backstage Realty for a year and loved it. My wife and I were new to the area and new parents and Dawn, Stacie , and Lisa with Backstage could not have made our lives easier. They respond quickly to service requests and are very helpful. I highly recommend them

As a consumer and an advocate of free speech, whatever you do never rent from these people. They do not understand federal law regarding service animals. They expect you to pay fees for maintenance when something breaks and then threaten you with eviction when the actual owner instructs you NOT to pay it. Worst rental company to EVER open in Niceville.

When working with another real estate agent you hope to have a true professional on the other side of the transaction to work through any issues with the parties best interests at heart to achieve their desired results to buy and sell. Dawn and her team emulate that impeccably making agents want to work with them again and again.

Dawn and her team at Back Stage Realty are rock stars! The sales and property management division treats homes they manage as if they were the home owners. They make smart recommendations for repairs and renovations. I always get a call or email back quickly and always feel very informed. Having someone local who really cares about their clients is important to me!

Dawn Johnson and Christina Jennings were consummate professionals when they handled the sale of my house. They marketed the house tirelessly, kept pressing for innovative ways to encourage other realtors and potential buyers to see the value of the home, neighborhood and community and made sure to dedicate sufficient time to see the deal through in a timely manner. If you want the BEST, this team is it.
