About Marla Hudson
My husband Jeff and I reside in Gulfport close to St. Pete Beach just a couple of blocks from the Gulfport Marina. I have a business and marketing degree specializing in digital marketing. My passion is helping families sell and buy homes in paradise! I have been an avid boater and beach goer most of my life. We decided to relocate to St. Pete 4 years ago to live, work and play in paradise! We chose this amazing location because of the breathtaking waterfront views from sunrise to sunset. We have found a warm, welcoming and diverse community that is overflowing with beautiful houses and condos, fabulous restaurants, quality schools and plenty of outdoor activities. I enjoy the thriving art scene, art walks, music, gorgeous bike paths, it’s amazing. Text or call me today to show you homes in paradise!
