If you’re looking for a realtor who goes above and beyond, Alana is the one. She sold our home in Parrish with exceptional professionalism and then exceeded every expectation by successfully selling our Airbnb in Port Charlotte, a completely different market with its own unique challenges. Her knowledge, marketing strategy, communication, and attention to detail were outstanding every step of the way. Alana never made us feel like just another transaction. She was responsive, honest, strategic, and genuinely invested in getting us the best possible outcome. Whether it was pricing, negotiations, staging advice, or navigating the details of each sale, her expertise gave us complete confidence throughout the process. What impressed us most was her ability to adapt to two very different real estate markets while delivering incredible results in both. She worked tirelessly on our behalf and consistently went the extra mile. We are so grateful for everything Alana did for our family. If you’re buying or selling in Parrish, Port Charlotte, or anywhere in between, you simply won’t find a more dedicated, knowledgeable, or trustworthy realtor. We recommend her without hesitation and would choose her again in a heartbeat.

The best of the best!

If you’re looking for a realtor who truly knows the Lakewood Ranch market, look no further than Lisa. From our very first meeting, it was clear that she not only understands the local real estate market inside and out, but genuinely loves the community she represents. Lisa developed a smart pricing and marketing strategy that generated strong interest right away, and she sold our home quickly while securing top dollar. Throughout the process, she was professional, responsive, honest, and an exceptional communicator. She anticipated challenges before they arose, kept us informed every step of the way, and made what could have been a stressful experience feel seamless. What sets Lisa apart is her combination of market expertise, integrity, and dedication to her clients. She is a skilled negotiator who always had our best interests at heart, and her attention to detail gave us complete confidence from listing through closing. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome and are incredibly grateful for Lisa’s hard work and guidance. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone buying or selling a home in Lakewood Ranch. She is simply one of the best in the business.

Quick to Respond

Laura really knows her areas. We were coming from New York and very confused about locations. She pointed us to various areas based on our needs and requirements. Bingo we found our perfect home. We are thrilled and cant thank her enough for being there every step of the way.

Tess Savini was awesome to work with!

Our experience with Tess Savini was exceptional from start to finish. She demonstrated outstanding market expertise, providing detailed insights into neighborhoods, property values, and current market trends. Communication was consistent and transparent; every question we had was answered promptly and thoroughly. Tess’s professionalism and attention to detail gave us complete confidence throughout the purchasing process. We are now happily settled in our new home, thanks in large part to her guidance.

Start to finish

From the beginning Lisa was amazing. She made it to a showing in short amount of time and put everything together the same day within hours. We didn't have much time to make a decision because of a lot of interested people. The decision on the offering price, contract obligations, and inspection requirements, Lisa was there all the way. Lisa cared about what we needed and what we were trying to accomplish. Thanks to her we put a deal together and closed it quick!

10 stars and more!

Alana worked above and beyond on the selling and purchase of our homes. This is our 6th and 7th transactions with her. She recognized our needs and worked tirelessly to make both transactions happen. She is one in a million and would not hesitate to recommend her and her services!

Top notch agent!

This was our 6th transaction with Alana and hopefully last. Alana is the epitome of professionalism and worked nonstop with us in the selling of our home and purchase of our new one. She came through on all fronts and we couldn’t have asked for a better agent and friend!
