Licensed Florida Real Estate Broker · Broker license BK3077984 · Co-owner, PBP Real Estate, LLC (brokerage license CQ1064615) · Boca Raton, Florida
Grant Freer co-founded PBP Real Estate with his wife Gia, who serves as Broker of Record. Together they have closed 759 transactions and more than $201 million in sales volume in South Florida. Grant is originally from the United Kingdom and has lived and worked in Boca Raton since 2006. Before real estate he founded and ran several businesses, and he approaches a listing the same way he approached those: with a plan, a number, and someone accountable for the result.
What Grant does
- Short sales and distressed property. Grant has handled short sales since the last housing downturn, working directly with lenders and loss-mitigation departments on behalf of sellers who owe more than their property is worth. His background is in accounting and finance, which is the part of a short sale that usually decides the outcome.
- Market data and analysis. The market figures published across this site are built from the MLS feed and reviewed before they go out. Grant builds that reporting so that pricing conversations start from evidence rather than opinion.
- Technology and operations. Grant runs the systems behind the brokerage — the website, marketing, and the tools that keep clients informed. Where we use artificial intelligence, how we use it, and what it is never allowed to do are set out plainly in our AI disclosure.
How Grant works
Straightforward, and quick to tell a seller something they may not want to hear. Clients tend to remember two things: that the numbers were explained rather than asserted, and that nobody disappeared once the listing was signed.
“I was so scared to call real estate offices and share my financial hardships with people I did not know. I was embarrassed and really just wanted to let the home go into foreclosure… He made me feel at ease. I listed my property and was under contract within three days. We just closed a few days ago — I was amazed the entire process only took 58 days.”

Common questions
Is a short sale still possible today?
Yes. Short sales are less common than they were, but homeowners still end up owing more than their property will sell for — after a divorce, an inherited property with debt against it, or a purchase made at the top of a cycle. The decision depends on your lender, your hardship and your equity position, and it is worth a conversation before anything is missed.
Who will handle my sale?
PBP is a boutique, broker-owned firm. Listings are handled by Gia Freer, Broker of Record, with Grant supporting on data, marketing and distressed-property matters.

Yes — across Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade counties and north into Martin and St. Lucie, with the most depth in Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Highland Beach, Boynton Beach and the surrounding coastal and country club communities.
