Jasmin has been surrounded by family of real estate investors since early childhood, where she witnessed the dedication, vision, and hard work it takes to transform a house into a place someone can truly call home. Being involved in the day-to-day operations sparked her passion, and that inspiration only deepened when she purchased and flipped her first investment property. That experience became the driving force behind her commitment to pursuing a career in real estate.
Bilingual in English and Spanish, this allows her to assist a broader range of clients and help ensure clear communication throughout the transaction. She is passionate in sharing real estate knowledge with members of the community who may be navigating the process for the first time. She has seen how much guidance, education, and support people often need — or may not have access to — throughout their homeownership journey. These interactions and connections have shaped her purpose in this profession: to serve, to teach, and to help others build stability and generational wealth through real estate.
Today, she carries that passion into every consultation, showing, and closing. Whether someone is buying their first home, investing for the future, or searching for a place that better fits their family’s needs, Jasmin is dedicated to making the process clear, supportive, and empowering. Outside of real estate, she enjoys spending time with her family, traveling, cooking, and creating memories with her two children.

Associate Real Estate Broker | R Realty Rochester
Stephany Negron is a licensed Associate Real Estate Broker with R Realty Rochester, proudly serving Rochester, NY, and its surrounding communities. Since beginning her real estate career in 2021, she has built her business on three core values: confidence, loyalty, and trust.
What began as a personal interest in real estate investing grew into a career centered around helping others build a foundation for their future. Whether working with first-generation homebuyers, growing families looking for their next home, or investors expanding their portfolios, Stephany believes every real estate journey deserves thoughtful guidance, honest communication, and a personalized approach.

Her commitment to understanding the ever-changing real estate market allows her to help clients make confident, informed decisions that align with both their immediate needs and long-term goals.
Her passion for real estate extends beyond buying and selling homes. Stephany is also the founder of Tesoro Asset Management (TAM), a property management company rooted in the belief that real estate should be treated as a valuable asset. Tesoro, meaning "treasure" in Spanish, reflects her philosophy that a home or investment property is more than a transaction; it is an opportunity to create stability, build wealth, and positively impact the future.
Beyond her professional aspirations, Stephany has a personal vision of one day establishing a facility dedicated to supporting single mothers and fathers experiencing homelessness. Her experiences working with individuals and families from different walks of life have only strengthened her belief in the importance of stable housing and access to opportunity.

For Stephany, real estate is about more than finding the right property. It's about understanding the people, goals, and dreams behind every move.
