Chris Finlay is the CEO and CIO of Lloyd Jones LLC. His journey began in the early 1970s when, in tandem with his father-in-law, he ventured into an avocado grove, even while he soared the skies as a pilot for Eastern Airlines for a remarkable 16-year stretch. As his entrepreneurial spirit took flight, Chris transitioned into the multifaceted world of real estate, leaving an indelible mark on the industry.
A pioneer in commercial brokerage, Chris Finlay revolutionized the industry with his “white shirt and tie” ethos at the helm of the Finlay companies.
