Bio
Jay Puig is a 5th generation Laredoan, rancher, and the founder of Compass Real Estate Investments. Jay holds a B.A. in Marketing from Texas A&M University and has 20 years experience in real estate sales and marketing, development, and consulting. He started his real estate career with Armadillo Homes where rose to the position of Vice President. It was there where he learned the fundamentals of salesmanship, marketing, and land development. After a successful career at Armadillo, Jay partnered with Dominion Real Estate Group where his expertise in sales, land acquisitions, and development consulting earned him a reputation as top resource in the industry. Jay fulfilled a lifelong dream when he launched his own brokerage and development firm in 2004. Jay was contracted in 2009 by Westwind Homes to lead the sales staff and marketing campaign for the Laredo and Valley markets. Under his direction, Westwind experienced tremendous growth in sales revenue and increased profit margins. In 2010, his brokerage and development firm had a dramatic expansion. After successfully completing his contractual commitments, Jay returned to the helm of Compass Real Estate Investments exclusively. One of the keys to his success is knowing who is the end user for any given type of property and being able to deliver a finished product that is marketable and profitable. Compass Real Estate Investments has consistently earned above average rates of return for their real estate owners and investors. Jay Puig’s success can be attributed to years of experience in all aspects of the industry, his extensive knowledge of the market, and his vast network of highly regarded professionals in related fields. Jay has been married to Elva C. Puig for 16 years, and has 3 great kids. He enjoys watching his children’s sporting events and loves to fish, hunt, and ranch with his Dad in his spare time. His parents still reside in Laredo and are an important part of his life. When not spending time at the office or his family, Jay volunteers his time to various organizations including, WBCA, Coastal Conservation Association, Border Olympics, and Texas Jr. High School Rodeo Association.
