“Working with David Lovitch to sell my home was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. His professionalism, market expertise, and attention to detail truly set him apart. From the moment we listed, David developed a smart pricing strategy, arranged beautiful marketing materials, and coordinated every showing with care and precision. What impressed me most was David’s communication — I always knew what was happening, and he provided honest, insightful advice every step of the way. The negotiation process was handled flawlessly, and he secured an excellent offer that exceeded my expectations. Thanks to David, the entire selling experience was smooth, stress-free, and successful. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent — I’d highly recommend David Lovitch to anyone looking to sell their home with confidence and ease.”
“Alex is one of the best agents I have ever worked with! That's saying a lot since I am a fellow broker and very picky!! My husband and I would highly recommend him!”
“Thank you Valentina for everything you did to help us find our new home. We really appreciate your patience, expertise, and responsiveness every step of the way throughout the entire process. We especially value how you always responded to our questions so quickly, helped us navigate the complex paperwork, found the perfect neighborhood for us. You made the whole process feel so much easier and less stressful. It's been a pleasure working with you, and we’re so glad we had you on my corner. We will not hesitate to refer to friends or family your way when they're ready to buy or sell. Thank you again for your dedication and hard work.”
“Philip was very professional, accommodating and understanding. Once we identified a home we liked and put an offer in, Philip guided us always and provided needed information to keep us on track. He kept the process real and with forward motion. His recommendations were wonderful. I would use Philip again in a heartbeat! Thank you Philip! --Bea”
“Lee and Lisa Mirman helped us successfully think through and negotiate our recent condominium purchase in Sarasota. Their deep knowledge of the local real estate market, and the time they take to comprehensively understand their clients' needs, sets them a league apart. This is the third property (two homes on Bird Key and now a downtown condo) we have purchased with the help and guidance of Lee and Lisa. Each was an exceptional find from a value and lifestyle perspective. We would wholeheartedly recommend Lee and Lisa to any prospective buyer or seller (we sold one house at full asking price through their efforts) of Sarasota real estate.”
“Sam sheen realty was FANTASTIC !! I COULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR BETTER AGENTS”
“Trustworthy, professional, supportive in an emotional time. Managed expectations, good communication.”
“Larry was by far the best realtor I've worked with. I've met with a few in the past and he takes the cake. He made looking for a house feel like a fun experience instead of a cut and dry transaction. And the number of resources he had at his fingertips. I had a question/inpection request, he knew a person. I was really impressed. I am always bragging about the team I had in getting me into my house, with Larry being the ring leader.”
“Meagan jones is truly a one of a kind and anyone that has the opportunity to work with her would know she is amazing. She loves what she does and strives to meet your needs. The passion she has in unbeatable. Truly blessed to have found her and can't wait to start building with her by our side.”
“She was there with us 100% throughout the crazy experience we had with our lenders. She fought for us and helped us close on our first home. She was easy to talk to and listened to us and I would definitely recommend her to any of my friends.”
“Luis exceeded all of my expectations. I've never purchased a home before, so I was quite nervous about the process. However, Luis made all of my anxieties disappear like a magician. He took the time to answer all of our questions and always had a thorough answe. It also felt like he always prioritized getting back to us when we reached out for anything. He was more than prepared for our trips out to see houses, doing research before hand. Throughout the entire process, he was prompt and helped move the process along. We didn't feel rushed either. He was clear in his communication, especially when he needed something from us. I could write a novel about how wonderful it was to work with Luis. I plan to make sure his name is well known in my network for any real estate needs. Thank you for making our dreams come true, Luis! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Crysti helped me through every step of the buying process. It's a stressful situation to start with, but Crysti made it a little less stressful! She has vast knowledge of the selling/buying process, and was available to me 24/7. I highly recommend Crysti.”
“Brian was the best, he understood our needs and was knowledgeable about our limitations and how to work with them. If I had to redo it again I would work with Brian again.”
“Yandy Estrada was an excellent choice for us to help us buy our house, he helped and guided us every step of the way. Their trust and professionalism made every step of this adventure very easy. Definitely in our next investment I would choose Yandy Estrada and Rosa Leon again.”
“Nick is very knowledgeable and trustworthy. He kept us unformed at all hours and represented us well. He is an excellent negotiator and was very professional. Overall he did an outstanding job and I would absolutely use him again and recommend him to friends and family.”
“Kevin was very kind, listened, responded to all my questions, and got my house listed with beautiful pictures to show the beauty of my house. All went as smooth as possible!”
