“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.”

“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.”
