Meet Bill
- I'm proud to help out at my wife's local business, Wild Lemon Pilates. You might find me around there tinkering or even on a reformer getting my session in.
- As a young man, I started working as soon as I could with any kind of job I could try. Hardware store, radio show host, landscaping, restaurant work and so many more!
- I also worked as a stagehand for bands like Aerosmith, Elton John & Metallica. That led to a degree in recording and music technology and a 10 year career in commercial audio, video & lighting systems.
- I'm a dog dad to Bolgie and Chickadee, a proud uncle of 9 and I love to spend time with my wife cooking and generally being ridiculous together.
fun facts about bill
I moved to Pensacola in 2001, after visiting and falling in love with everything this gorgeous gulf coast has to offer. Growing up near Chicago made me appreciate coastal life that much more. Pensacola has been my home ever since, and I love doing my part to make it the best it can be.
In 2010, I met my wife and opened a neighborhood bar & restaurant called The Magnolia. After 11 years of growing The Mag into a beloved local institution, we sold the business to an aspiring young couple, as I made the full-time transition into real estate.
My approach to real estate is the same as my approach to life. You get out of it what you put into it. And the best things in life are truly in the work, so let's go get it!
Straightforward real estate sales and support for those times when you just need it handled.
If you've ever worked with a real estate agent that made you feel like just a number, that makes me angry. Buying or selling a home is such a major personal moment, you deserve to be supported throughout the entire process.
client care
I've got a huge network of professionals on my speed dial, so if things need work, I can coordinate repairs or upgrades to be done quickly and cleanly — fixing any issues before they have a chance to derail a deal.
Get things done
Pensacola's been my home for more than two decades. As a serial entrepreneur and adoptive native, I've got a large network and a lot of know-how about this town I call home. Feel free to pick my brain!
local roots
What does it take to get a deal done? Whatever it takes. The way I approach this is by helping both sides of a transaction come to an understanding so they can both walk away happy and we can get the deal done.

Why work with me?

"Bill helped us sell one house and buy another. He came up with a fantastic staging and marketing strategy that got us top dollar for our previous home, and he helped us negotiate in a competitive offer situation to win our new home at a reasonable price. He was proactive and really went above and beyond to help us achieve our objectives. In the more stressful moments, he was the voice of reason and helped lighten the mood and find mutually satisfactory solutions. Two thumbs up!"

“Bill was the best realtor we could have ever asked for! We had a very short deadline to sell and so many moving pieces and he was there with us every step of the way. He was professional and kind and got us a great buyer with much less stress. You won’t find a better person to guide you through your home purchase or sale!”
With Us Every Step of the Way

“Finding a home in a new city under emergency circumstances can be overwhelming. After working with Bill Manning, our problems were solved! He listened to our needs, did research with us, and helped us negotiate the purchase of a wonderful home! Bill quickly became a not only a realtor, and a guide, but also a friend, ultimately making our transition to our new city an extremely positive experience!”
Our Problems Were Solved!
sheryl allen, client
"After the first phone call Bill quickly set the wheels in motion. I was in the process of moving out of state and left the process in his hands. After prepping my house to sell Bill presented an accepted offer in 5 days and we closed a few weeks later. I highly recommend Bill to anyone in need of an agent. He surpassed my expectations and is also a joy to be around. You will not find a better realtor than Bill Manning."
