NAPLES, Fla. - September 25, 2025 - Engel & Völkers Florida today announced Suzanne “Suzi” Wertz, a rising leader in Naples’ luxury real estate market, has joined Engel & Völkers Naples as a real estate advisor. Wertz, who began her real estate career just three years ago, was previously with Downing-Frye Realty and has quickly become one of the area’s top producers.
“I’ve always believed success comes from truly seeing and hearing people — understanding their goals and helping them achieve them,” Wertz said. “Engel & Völkers shares those values, and joining their team is the next step in continuing to grow my business while elevating the experience I provide to clients.”
Wertz was recognized as one of Naples' Top Advisors in 2024, achieving nearly $10 million in sales. Her average sales price of $1.3 million was more than double Naples' average home value of $564,809, according to Zillow.
“Suzi’s rise in the Naples market has been nothing short of impressive,” said Victoria Stultz, License Partner of Engel & Völkers Naples. “Her work embodies a unique blend of insight, professionalism, and dedication. She is the type of advisor who not only achieves exceptional results but also significantly elevates the client experience. We are thrilled to welcome such an advisor to our team, as she perfectly aligns with the qualities we seek.”
Before launching her real estate career in 2022, Wertz was principal of Wertz Consulting, LLC in Milwaukee, where she spent over a decade advising CEOs and senior leaders on organizational change, leadership development, and strategic communication. She previously served as a consultant at Northwestern Mutual for nearly 17 years. Wertz’s experience guiding companies through growth, acquisitions, and transitions directly informs her work in real estate, where she empowers clients to make informed decisions and navigate the buying or selling process with confidence. Her strength in facilitating collaboration and ensuring clarity of purpose translates into a client experience rooted in trust, strategy, and effective communication.
“Victoria has done a phenomenal job building a strong foundation in her markets, and bringing on Brian Partie as her full-time recruiter was a smart and strategic move,” said Peter Giese, CEO of Engel & Völkers Florida. “He’s doing an excellent job attracting top talent like Suzi to both the Naples and Suncoast shop groups. That level of focus on growth and culture is exactly how they’re rising to the top of our network.”
Engel & Völkers continues to expand its presence across Florida, attracting high-performing advisors and increasing market share in key luxury communities statewide.
