Who we are

Helping families move forward with confidence.

Prather Investments is a family-owned real estate company based in Venice, Florida. Each year we buy and sell more than 150 homes, and every one goes through our own renovation team before it’s sold.

Whether you’re searching for your first home, need to sell quickly, or want to transform the house you’re in, we build the solution around you, not around complicated processes. That’s why so many clients mention Allen and Jake by name.

Our goal is simple: make homeownership easier, faster and more affordable.
