In 2025, Jeff Kennedy solidified his status as a premier industry advisor, steering Maverix Advisory Group into a nationally recognized consulting powerhouse within just over a year of its founding. Leveraging more than 20 years of experience in mortgage and a 13-year tenure at Leading Real Estate Companies of the World®, Kennedy has become a pivotal bridge between proptech innovators and the brokerage community. Throughout 2025, he expanded the firm’s influence by appointing industry legends like Pam O’Connor and Matthew Ferrara to the Maverix Advisory Board while securing high-impact strategic partnerships with major platforms like Real Estate Webmasters.
Kennedy’s influence is defined by his “relationship-first” approach and his unique ability to guide vendors toward true product-market fit. By launching the “Eighty Under 80” awards, he created a new platform to spotlight emerging trailblazers, further cementing his role as a champion of industry innovation.
“I love connecting people, and finding and creating win-win-win situations,” Kennedy shares. “Leaving things better than when I got them is the ultimate reward.”
His forward-looking strategies in operational efficiency and growth continue to provide the roadmap for executives and entrepreneurs looking to navigate a volatile real estate landscape.
