JASON R. SPITZER, J.D.

A St. Pete native, Jason grew up surrounded by the charm and sunshine of the city he still proudly calls home. After high school, he set out to experience life beyond Florida, attending Elon University in North Carolina, where he graduated in 2009 before earning his law degree from the Elon School of Law.

During law school, Jason spent a summer as a project manager for the acquisition of a 150-unit distressed apartment complex—a hands-on project that reignited his passion for real estate and set the course for his career. After graduation, he dove into commercial real estate sales in Greensboro, North Carolina, where he honed his expertise in property investment, development, and client relations.

Eventually, the pull of the Gulf Coast proved too strong to resist, and Jason returned to his hometown of St. Petersburg. Since then, he has built a reputation as one of the area’s leading real estate professionals and serves as the leader of a top-producing team, Spitzer Rutland. Under his guidance, the team has become known for its collaborative culture, client-centered approach, and impressive results across both residential and commercial markets.

Today, Jason channels his legal background, leadership experience, and deep market knowledge into helping clients and team members alike navigate the dynamic world of real estate with confidence and clarity. He and his team have a broad range of experience handling sales, leasing, and property management for both commercial and residential properties. They are passionate about every facet of the industry, and are driven by the endless opportunities it provides to create value, build community, and make a lasting impact right here in the Greater Tampa Bay Area.
