A little bit about me...

Stephanie Thorndike is a real estate sales associate with Matchmaker Realty who brings a deep-rooted commitment to the Gainesville community. Originally from Jupiter, Florida, she moved to Gainesville in 2004 to attend the University of Florida and has proudly called it home ever since. Over the past 16 years, she owned and operated a successful local fitness business, coaching clients to reach their goals — an experience that now shapes her personalized, results-driven approach to real estate.

Stephanie lives, invests, and raises her family in Gainesville, giving her firsthand insight into the neighborhoods, investment potential, and lifestyle the area offers. As an active property owner and manager, she specializes in helping buyers and investors navigate the market with confidence and clarity. Clients appreciate her honest guidance, high energy, and ability to break down complex decisions into clear, actionable steps.

Whether working with a first-time buyer, aspiring investor, or seasoned homeowner, Stephanie brings a level of support, integrity, and local knowledge to every transaction. Outside of real estate, she enjoys spending time with her family, working out with friends, or reading a good book.
