BROKER/OWNER
I’m Jeff Carlson, Broker/Owner of RE/MAX Experience and RE/MAX Lakes Realty, and Team Leader of the Carlson Group at RE/MAX Experience. Real estate is more than a career for me, it’s my passion and my platform for building community across Sioux City, Dakota Dunes, LeMars, Okoboji, and all of Siouxland. Every client I work with becomes part of that community, and I take pride in delivering an experience that’s energetic, fun, and results-driven.
Over the years, I’ve humbly been honored with some incredible recognition in the industry, including being named a Top 100 RE/MAX Agent in the U.S. (#66 in 2022), the #2 agent in the Iowa/Nebraska Region in 2022, a Platinum Club Award winner (2022–2024), 2025 RealTrends top real estate teams in Iowa and Sioux City, named to REMAX Hall of Fame (2025), and part of the RE/MAX President’s Circle for leading one of the fastest-growing brokerages in the nation. While those accolades mean a lot and are a direct reflection of the amazing clients we work with daily, what truly drives me is helping people achieve their dreams Whether it’s buying a home, selling an investment, or finding that perfect lakeshore getaway in Okoboji.
Beyond real estate, I’m deeply invested in the Siouxland community. I’m a co-owner of the City Centre in downtown Sioux City, I stay active at Sunnybrook Community Church, and I love giving back through coaching youth basketball and supporting local causes. When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me cheering on a game, firing up the grill with friends, or enjoying a day of boating in Okoboji. Real estate is what I do but people, family, faith, and community are why I do it.

Jeff was a pleasure to do business with. He did a great job in understanding our needs and was able to find the right tenant for our space. We look forward to doing more business with Jeff and RE/MAX.
Jeff and the rest of the Carlson Group Real Estate team were beyond the best partners we could have hoped for in handling our new building purchase. As a new electrical contracting company that is rapidly growing and all the chaos that comes along with that, we had very little time to invest in the entire purchasing process. Jeff and his team stepped in for us and handled the entire purchase for us, start to finish. Even though we were 800 miles away on a project, everything happened on time as scheduled. Simply put, it was flawless execution on their part, and we sincerely want to thank the Carlson Group Real Estate team for carrying that burden for us. So, from the Electrical Innovations team, We Thank You!
Jeff is awesome to work with! He goes above and beyond with everything he does and takes care of his people. It's also a plus that he knows what he's talking about...
I’ve known Jeff for sometime now and you will not meet someone that is more driven to succeed or someone that cares about the community as much as he does. You want him in your corner no matter what he is doing he will work doggedly on your behalf!
Jeff’s obsession with creating an elite customer experience is evident!
I’ve worked with Jeff and his crew several times throughout the years and have never met a more caring and trustworthy team. They truly go above and beyond for their clients!
Jeff was extremely patient through our year-long search for a property. He understood our vision and kept our best interests in mind.
Jeff and Rachel helped us find a home to launch our small business. They are very responsive, knowledgeable, and as first time business owners incredibly patient and willing to explain processes in a way that was easy to understand. In addition to all of this, the they passionate about our community and genuinely want to see us succeed. Highly recommend!!
