Boyd Realty

Established in 1952, serving Manatee and Sarasota Counties, the Boyd Companies dominate the Manatee County real estate market, while maintaining a major influence in Sarasota County as well. The Boyd family’s contributions to real estate and development began mid-century in Sarasota and continues today.

Owner-Broker Brenda Boyd May continues the legacy of her father, visionary developer and former Florida Senator Wilbur Boyd, Sr. After traveling for more than 30 years with Major League baseball, Milt May, Batting Coach for the Baltimore Orioles, has found coming home to Sarasota to be a perfect fit.

The Boyd May family has a history of service to the community, influencing professional growth and the Arts. Their service on local boards, committees, and professional organizations has greatly impacted the Sarasota and Manatee Arts and Cultural scene, including the Ringling Foundation, New College, and Van Wezel Performing Arts Center.
