James A. Kux was born and raised in Naples and has lived the majority of his life here. He attended all the local public schools in Naples and graduated from the University of Miami with degrees in Public Relations, English and Marketing. James Kux has been involved in real estate in Naples his entire life; his father, James J. Kux, had a real estate office in downtown Naples for numerous years.
This long term exposure to the real estate trade and his length of time living in Naples have given James a vast, unprecedented knowledge of real estate in Southwest Florida. Being a native of Naples has also given James the knowledge of the area that a Realtor who moved here just a few years ago will never have. He has seen Naples grow and change over the decades, and knows the areas that will increase in value the most and suit your needs best.
