Russell Miller of CENTURY 21 Beggins Enterprises

Personal Profile

Born and raised on Long Island's North Shore, Russ grew up in a family deeply rooted in real estate, making it an integral part of his life and naturally chosen career path. With over 30 years of experience and a forward-looking vision, Russ has been consistently recognized as a top-producing agent in both Tampa Bay and New York City, and a trusted partner in the real estate community. As a joint owner of commercial and residential properties with his father and four sisters, Russ brings a deep, practical understanding of the investor experience-including investment strategies, ROI, and the Time Value of Money (TVM). With a mastery of strong negotiating skills, one of Russ's greatest strengths is the trusted network of local professionals he's built: lenders, builders, contractors, and tradespeople-ensuring every client benefits from reliable, vetted connections. When Russ makes a referral, clients can trust they'll receive fair treatment and high-quality service. In the early 1990s, Russ began his career working alongside his father as an appraiser in Southwest Florida, building a solid foundation in property values and market trends. Later, in his mid-20s, he moved to Manhattan, where he spent two decades with The Corcoran Group-first working hard to become a top producer, and later serving as a managing director on the Upper West Side. There, Russ played a key role in hiring, training, and retaining talented agents. He expanded that role and became a trusted advisor to many of Manhattan's largest developers and portfolio owners, helping maximize project values across major residential developments. After relocating to Tampa Bay nearly 20 years ago, Russ was recruited to manage the South Tampa office of CENTURY 21 Beggins, building strong local relationships and developing a deep understanding of the Tampa Bay market. While Russ now resides on Treasure Island, his expertise spans the entire Tampa Bay region-including Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco Counties. With roughly a decade in South Tampa and another along the Pinellas beaches, Russ is a true regional expert with a proven track record across all market types. Above all, Russ has never forgotten his early roots in the business and most enjoys the thrill of working with buyers-building personal connections and helping clients find their perfect home. He's often heard around the office quoting lines from his favorite sales movie, Jerry Maguire-starring Renee Zellweger, Cuba Gooding Jr., and Tom Cruise-such as: "When I wake up in the morning, I clap my hands and say, 'Today is going to be a great day."' "You have to love everyone, or you can't sell anyone." "Less clients and more personal attention." - his personal favorite. Russ believes real estate can be both fun and profitable. He lives by the code of honesty and ethics and prides himself on rapid response and professionalism, working only with clients and colleagues who share those same high standards. Russ is an avid lifelong boater and often shows homes from the water, as the rear yard is just as important as the front curb appeal. With decades of experience, regional expertise, and an unwavering commitment to client success, Russell Miller is the real estate professional you can count on.
