Who We Work With
The people behind every CoHaven transaction.
CoHaven isn't a solo operation. Every group transaction involves a local Florida real estate attorney, an experienced local real estate agent, and a professional network built specifically for the Emerald Coast market. Here's who, and what they do.
One of the things that makes co-ownership work — or not work — is the quality of the professional structure around it. A poorly drafted Operating Agreement, an attorney unfamiliar with Florida LLC law, or a real estate agent without local market depth can each create problems that outlast the closing.
CoHaven's professional partners are local, experienced, and specifically suited to what co-ownership transactions require.
Legal
Bill Ketchersid
Real Estate Attorney - Ketchersid Law - Destin, Florida
Bill drafts the Operating Agreement for each CoHaven co-owner group and handles the LLC formation and property closing. He brings deep familiarity with Florida real estate law and the specific legal considerations of the Emerald Coast market. The Operating Agreement Bill produces is the governing document for everything that follows — usage rights, expense sharing, decision-making, and exit provisions. Getting it right at the start is what makes the co-ownership structure hold up over time.
Real Estate
Chris Bent
Real Estate Agent - Emerald Coast, Florida
Chris works with CoHaven groups to identify properties that match the group's profile — location, size, price range, and the specific characteristics that make a property work well for shared ownership. His market knowledge and professional network on the Emerald Coast means CoHaven groups have access to properties both on and off market. Chris's familiarity with what co-ownership groups need — and how the all-cash offer process works — makes the property search phase faster and more targeted than a generalist agent could manage.
CoHaven works with a network of local real estate agents across the Emerald Coast market — Navarre to Panama City Beach — with agents selected for their specific market knowledge in each geography. As CoHaven expands into new markets, the same criteria applies: local expertise, familiarity with the price range, and experience working with defined buyer groups.
Why local matters.
Every professional involved in a CoHaven transaction is local to the Florida market and engaged specifically for your group's deal. Not a national firm handling coastal transactions from a distance. Not a generalist attorney who handles co-ownership alongside two hundred other matter types.
The Emerald Coast has its own legal, insurance, and HOA landscape — shaped by post-Surfside building legislation, Florida's insurance market, and decades of coastal property law specific to this stretch of coast. The professionals who work well here know that landscape. The ones who don't create problems that show up after closing.
