Meet Our Team

Real Estate Agent Shirley Hunt
27 years in real estate have given me insight into the complexity of this business. Every year, the paperwork and issues surrounding sales get more involved. I've had 272 transactions in Coast Village alone. Buying and selling homes is often confusing and frightening...it's my job to help make it less stressful. Give me a call and I will help you get started!
Real Estate Agent Sadie Ward
From the moment I drove over the iconic Siuslaw Bridge into Florence, I knew that I was home. I've been asked a lot over the years why at 25 I chose to move to a town with so many retirees, and my answer is always the same, "who wouldn't want to live here? Florence has it all....ocean, lakes, river, hiking, events and the list goes on and on". I fell in love with the people, the beauty and the feeling of community that is Florence.
Real Estate Agent Rick Cox
Rick got started in the real estate business working for his father at Van Cox Real Estate Co. This was 1965 and he worked while attending college at Wichita State University. After moving to the Oregon Coast in the early 70’s he went to work at Coast Real Estate in 1977. These years of experience have taught him the skills and patience necessary to be effective in these challenging times. He has an easy style and is client-focused.
Real Estate Agent Randy Paredes
Randy moved to Florence in 2004. His hobbies include baseball and broadcasting high school sports on local KCST radio. Prior to real estate, he spent 30 years as a pastor. "I'm excited to serve this wonderful community and help buyers and sellers achieve their real estate goals," Paredes said.

Real Estate Broker Missy Johnson
It's hard to believe that I've just finished up my second year in real estate with Coldwell Banker Coast Real Estate. While the move to this profession was somewhat natural after spending 30 years in management and sales, I am challenged on a daily basis and I love it. I certainly don't think it would have been as easy of a transition had I not been welcomed into and been supported by the amazing team at CB Coast, we truly are a family.
Real Estate Agent Mike & Wanda Johnson
My husband Mike and I moved from Santa Cruz to Florence in 1980 with our four children. August this year marks our 37th year here! People have asked how we could have possibly moved away from Santa Cruz, California! The answer is that Florence reminded us of Santa Cruz when we were kids in the 60's, when summers were exciting and busy but winters were quiet and cozy. And thankfully, Florence is still the same in that respect, and also offers a wider variety of outdoor activities year round!
Real Estate Agent Lynnette Wikstrom
I have lived in the Florence area since 1979 and still really love it here. I started out owning restaurants (Windward Inn and Gingerbread Village) but after I sold in 2004, I decided real estate is where I wanted to be. I started at Coldwell Banker Coast Real Estate in March of 2005 and have never looked back. It's a great company and we have great brokers...it's like a second family.
Real Estate Agent John Barnett
I’m a third generation Oregonian and have lived in the Florence area for over 30 years. My wife and I have five children, all of whom have grown up in the Florence area, and I have served as a Board member of the Siuslaw School District for over seven years. I chose real estate as my career path because it allows me to use the customer service skills I acquired during my seventeen years as a real estate appraiser, and it gives me a chance to serve the community I love.
Real Estate Agent JeriLyn McCullough
I first experienced Florence on a road trip from my long time home in Northern California to explore the Oregon Coast. Being a country girl that loves water in all it’s forms I was taken by its unique natural beauty that includes dozens of fresh water lakes, dunes and a meandering river all on the ocean. The icing on this geographically amazing cake is its proximity to Eugene, home of the University of Oregon, Portland and the unmatched coastline to the north and south.
