Stop Punishing Yourself: How Jaime Sturgis of Native Realty Found the Right Bank

Jaime Sturgis, the CEO and founder of Native Realty, isn’t just running a real estate brokerage. He’s crafting a movement—a shift towards personalized, white-glove service in an industry overcrowded with impersonal giants.

Why should you care? Because Jaime’s approach is changing the game. Native Realty specializes in both residential and commercial properties throughout the Tri-County area. They offer localized expertise with the backing of institutional knowledge. It’s not about transactions; it’s about relationships. But even dedicated professionals hit roadblocks.

The 800-Pound Gorilla Problem

We’ve been conditioned to believe that bigger is better. Big banks with big names must have big solutions, right? But Jaime discovered the opposite.

“Having dealt with the 800-pound gorillas that you can’t get a return phone call or you’re sitting on hold or there’s bureaucratic red tape till the end of time,” he says.

The Wake-Up Call

Then came the tipping point: fraud hit his account. The big bank’s solution?

“Wake up every morning and check your bank account.” 😑

Enter Community Banking

Jaime made a choice—not just to switch banks but to refuse the notion that business as usual was acceptable.

“It’s refreshing to be able to pick up the phone, get someone to answer it, and have someone that is results-driven,” he says.

With Locality Bank, Jaime found:

• Enhanced Security: Robust measures that larger banks couldn’t match.
• Responsive Service: Customer Service answering calls, ready to help.
• Efficient Solutions: An easier platform without the red tape.

“I couldn’t be happier,” Jaime says. “We got the best of both worlds—better protection, better service, better communication, easier platform.”

The Takeaway

If you’re settling for mediocrity—in your banking, in your business partnerships, in any aspect of your operations—you’re holding yourself back.

Jaime has a simple message:

“My recommendation to anyone that’s considering a change in banks is: do it now and stop punishing yourself.”
