“Meaghan got a fast sale in a questionable market. She also made sure that we didn't give away the property either. I loved the way she handled the sale like it was her own home and her family would be involved. I would recommend her to you without reservation.”
“We started to pirchase homes from Laurine between 8-9 years ago. All of our purchases were sight unseen. We live in Nebraska and wanted to start making out way south for warmer weather. We spoke extensively to Laurine about exactly what I wanted for a house. We were not willing to compromise. She took the time to do research on the homes. How many people are able to purchase a home at the sole direction of a realtor they had never met before? Laurine is knowledgeable and direct and honest. I feel this speaks to the professionalism of Laurine. I believe this is the 6th house I have purchased from her. We are here just finishing up another purchase and all went flawlessly. I have close relatives who are transitioning her and are using Laurine as their realtor as well. We will only use Laurine for our home purchases because I know she is more than experienced and has so much knowledge. We plan on another purchase within the next year and Laurine will be our realtor.”
“Larry did a phenomenal job helping me sell my home. He went well above and beyond - connecting me with contractors, and advising me with his expertise along the way. I always felt like he had my best interest at heart. Highly recommend.”
“Debra is a true Superstar! Not only did she help us find our forever home for retirement, she drove over an hour each way to get to the area we were looking at, and she did that several times over the course of two weeks for inspections and closing. Debra knows this business and is a true professional in every sense. Thank you so much for your hard work, and thank you for being our friend. (You too Dave 😁) Joel & Marlene”
“Becky was incredible to work with and helped us not only with the purchase of our home in Florida, but was a huge help through our whole process of moving from Minnesota and even assisted with finding a rental until we could find a place to build. Truly went above and beyond and took the time to really understand what we want. Highly recommend!”
“I have never seen a realtor work as hard as Catherine Calix works. She was in touch regularly letting me know about people that were interested. She kept after prospective buyers to encourage them to make an offer. Many of the buyers were difficult to work with making many demands and offering very low prices. Catherine continued to keep a positive attitude throughout the whole process. I felt like I was in very capable hands and never doubted that Catherine would come through with good buyers. She is professional and she didn't mind holding open houses. Catherine did a great job with the virtual staging, setting a good price and managing every detail. I already recommended her to friends and will continue to do so.”
“Realtor for us was Jen Tobey. She came to initial meeting prepared and educated. She is professional & and market knowledgeable. We signed up with her. She showed the home several times and gave us good feedback. When the house was sold the process went smoothly, even though it was a probate sale. All of my phone calls, emails and text messages were immediately answered. What a pleasure working with her after dealing with courts, judges, banks, lawyers, financial advisors, retailers, inspectors and roofers to name a few. We also had a wonderful title company handle the closing.”
“Michelle was great to work with. She helped us through each process of purchasing our new home. She made herself available for all questions and concerns.”
“Linda provided professional information about the property, it's value in the marketplace and how best to get it sold. The process was seamless.”
“Once again Paula came through for us. She was always available for us whenever we needed her. Second home purchase for us with Paula, and once again she was on top of everything.”
“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.”
“We had worked with Julie when we purchased this property so when we decided to sell, it was a "no brainer," she knew us and knew the property. Even though the market was not as favorable as hoped, she stood by us, encouraged and updated us frequently. We have nothing but the highest regards for her professional services, in fact, more than once she went out of her way to make this sale possible. Every good trait you would expect from a realtor, she delivered. No high pressure just I'm here to help you attitude.”
“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.”
“Jessica went above expectations in helping us locate this property. Her knowledge of the area and recommendations facilitated our decision to purchase.”
“Sam sheen realty was FANTASTIC !! I COULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR BETTER AGENTS”
“I liked Century 21 but I really liked Brian so if he changed firms I would follow him. trustworthy, honest, and very knowledgeable with the situation and the market. I highly recommend him to my neighbors and friends. Very personable young man.”
