Excellent realtor even for a virtual buyer

We were virtual buyers from NY. We had a few “must haves” but were otherwise unsure of what and where would be a great fit and could not tour homes in person due to Covid and travel restrictions. Amber found us our dream home in the perfect community. I didn’t even know about it. It checked all of our boxes and we have our perfect home in our perfect community. Amber really listens and knew just what to suggest. We’ve been here for 5 months and can’t believe just how blessed we were to have her knowledge and expertise!

Choose Alana for a knowledgeable realtor!

I was buying a house in Florida while living in upstate New York, which is no easy chore. As soon as what I was looking for came on the market it would have an offer. She kept diligently sending me new listings, even doing walk thru FaceTime tours until I found one that met my needs. Alana is very easy to work with and even after the accepted offer worked hard at getting me quotes on things that needed fixing. Thanks to her I am now getting settled in my new vacation home and I love it. Thank you for everything Alana!

Sold our house

Alana was the best! She was professional yet calming and she was very knowledgeable and made our first selling experience like it was our 10th! Anytime we called for a question she came back with all answers either immediately or within a couple hours. After you close you leave feeling like you gained a new friend or family. She really is AMAZING!

3 time using Alana

Alana is the definition of professionalism and dedication to her clients. This was our 3rd time using her services and just like the previous times she did a phenomenal job. All of our properties had multiple offers within a couple of days and went under s contract in less than 10 days. If you want a dedicated real estate professional, call Alana.

Move Made Easy

Lisa was always a phone call away and always a step ahead of all my questions and concerns she was great on our purchase end as well as our selling end. I would gladly recommend Lisa to all my friends and encourage them seek Lisa's assistance in their real estate transactions. Lisa's experience also lead us to proven professionals in home inspections and home title attorney's. My response would have been sooner if my internet provider would have been on the ball like Lisa. Thanks again Lisa

Joe provided fast and efficient service in helping me locate my new home.

Joe provided me with expertise in the Sarasota/Bradenton market. His knowledge of the current purchasing trends and competition in the home buying arena me adjust to the pace of the current Gulf Coast market and the acquisition of my current home.

Easy Recommendation

Stacey was referred to us by our Realtor friend in another area. after a few email exchanges and a phone conversation we felt the vibe was good. Stacey had to work hard to find us homes that checked our boxes. She had just the right amount of pressure on the throttle to not be overbearing yet still close enough for us to know she was along side of us the whole way. We looked @ well over a dozen properties some better than others and ultimately the last one that we closed on. Stacey was never late, her and or her and Millicent (her business partner and Mom) were on sight b4 we arrived and had a knowledgeable review of the area. Stacey has also been helpful with other area suggestions from dinning to recreation plus who to go to for the house needs. As always do your own research of any recommendation. For us (with several home purchases) in the Bradenton / Sarasota areas Stacey is top notch and no hesitation, Easy Recommendation!

Outstanding Real Estate Agent

My fiancé and I had been looking for a home in the Sarasota area for almost 4 months before we had a good fortune of being introduced to Joe Suarez. He quickly identified and understood the type of community and home we were looking for. He was attentive to our price point, as well as what we wanted in our new home. Because of his thoroughness, he saved us a bunch of time looking through homes online that didn’t meet our criteria. In fact he went out of his way to ensure we were only seeing the homes that met our wants and needs. From the day he became our agent, to the day we closed on our home we never felt like he was trying to sell us a home or pressured in any way. In fact the relationship was more like that of a friend who is trying to help his friends find exactly what they were looking for and he did just take. My fiancé and I have referred friends and family of ours to Joe, and we won’t hesitate to refer others in the future who are also looking for a new home in the Sarasota area. He really is the kind of real estate agent you want on your side in any market, but especially the hot market that Florida has become.

EXCELLENT AGENT

We actually had previous experience with Amber representing us as buyers when we purchased this home a couple of years ago. Amber is professional, knowledgeable, and answered all questions related to the sale of our home, giving us confidence from listing to closing and everything in between. Amber is AAA+++ in our books and we will look to Amber for her guidance with future transactions when presented.

Hard working, well prepared, fun to be with

We can’t say enough about our experience with Joe. We came down for a week from Chicago to begin a search for a rental home/second home. As soon as we were introduced to Joe, he launched a plan for us. In a low inventory market, he still lined up over a dozen viable options for us - all of which were right on the bullseye of what we were looking for. And he brought in-depth analysis for each property, with comps and $/sq. ft. data. Which made it very easy for us to quickly hone in on the best options. After our week was up, Joe kept looking. Within hours of arriving back home, Joe lined up 4 more properties – which he took us through himself with FaceTime. He accurately advised us on the offer we made – and we landed the best house of the week. Joe is a great guy, very personable and very empathetic to the nuances of what was important to us. We really felt like he instantly became an advocate for us. What could have been a highly stressful week turned into a delight – and a fruitful one – all thanks to Joe.
