Our Team
Andrew Butler grew up in South Florida and on an island in the Caribbean called Dominica. He came to Saint Augustine in 2005 for college and fell in love with this beautiful, historic town. He ended up attending Liberty University online where he got a Bachelors in Religion and Philosophy, while already having an Associate in Business from SJRCC. While in college, he met and married his wife of more than 15 years, Lindy.
At that same time, he entered into the real estate industry. He has grown his knowledge extensively over the almost 20 years he’s been working in real estate. From helping families buy and sell homes to renovating and flipping houses, Andy has gotten well acquainted with all the ins and outs of housing. He’s seen what poor workmanship can wreak on a house and grown passionate about helping people find quality workers and companies to help take care of their homes. His entrepreneurial spirit has also flourished over the years of working in sales and growing his own real estate business.
Andy brings all of the skills he honed in real estate and his incredible work ethic into his partnership with Genesis Contracting. His love for this community has only grown over the years and he’s committed to building a company that brings value to all the residents of St. Johns County. It’s a town he’s personally invested in, as Lindy and he raise their three young kids here. You can find him on the soccer fields over the weekend, at cross country meets with his son, or attending his daughter’s dance recitals. He’s also involved in the hospital outreach ministry with his church, Trinity Episcopal. When he’s not involved in family, church, or work, you can find him surfing or running. Surfing is a life-long passion that he shares with many in town, and running is a hobby he and his wife have enjoyed recently- running 4 marathons in the last 4 years!
