Norma was instrumental in helping us locate an investment home. She was always available by phone or text, throughly explained to us the buying process in Florida. She is very knowledgeable, a true professional with a friendly approach. I have recommended her to all of my friends and family..

When we decided to begin the process of finding a home in Sarasota more than two years before we'd actually move there, we had the very good fortune of picking Steve Abbe as the real estate agent to help us. From our very first meeting with Steve it was obvious that he knows the Sarasota housing market inside and out. Steve's wealth of knowledge about Sarasota and the golf course community real estate market in particular, gave us a level of confidence that put our minds at ease during what can be a very stressful experience. Even though we weren't planning to move for quite some time, Steve was always patient and understanding as he put in the time and effort to help us find a home that was just right for us. Steve is the consummate professional, and never once did he make us feel hurried or pressured to reach a decision. Sometimes in life, you just get lucky. We feel we were very lucky to have had the opportunity to work with Steve. Based on our experience with Steve over the last couple of years, we can recommend him enthusiastically and without reservation to anyone in the market for a home in the Sarasota area.

Roger Pettingell and Longboat Realty sold our home and arranged for every detail from their very effective marketing campaign through the final sale. Not only was Roger and his staff professional in every way but they were a real pleasure to work with. I cannot say enough positive things about this organization and recommend them highly.

Caroline has proven to be a gem. She is extremely knowledgeable, pays attention to the needs and wants of her buyer, and can definitely roll with the punches when working with a demanding client. Coldwell Banker is extremely fortunate to have such a high caliber of professional representing the company. As a former realtor, I would have been so happy to have Caroline as a colleague. Integrity is everything and Caroline has that and much more.

Norma was the best, from listing to closing and everything in between Norma was on top of it. I would highly recommend her service to anyone looking to list or purchase property.

Eileen Gillen has been my 'go to' person for over 20 years. Her advice has consistently been sound, logical and honest in helping me make the best decisions in real estate issues. Buying, selling and renovating a home is very stressful but Eileen's guidance gives me the knowledge and confidence to make the right choices. Eileen has successfully managed and profited from her own real estate and this makes her judgments thoughtful. They are based on her experiences, diligent research and truly honest interest in making sure I achieve my goals. Eileen is an overall outstanding resource! I appreciate Eileen's dependability, trustworthiness and recommend her highly without reservation.

I have worked with many real estate agents over the years and Norma is by far one of the most attentive and responsive agents I have ever dealt with. Extremely knowledgeable and always available. Highly recommend.

Norma handled our purchase of a new home, and the sale of our old home, so we spent a lot of time with her. She was always available to us, and explained all of our questions in a clear, professional manner. We will definitely recommend her to anyone in the need of an agent.

Very knowledgeable of Sarasota area and property values. Made herself available often on short notice to show us properties when we came into town. Often felt like we were her only clients as she gave us her full attention. Always researched properties and comps in area prior to showings. As we were doing most of the negotiations and finalizing long distance , she acted on our behalf to meet with remodeling contractors etc at property or arranged for her assistant to be there if she couldn’t Norma was a skillful negotiator and able to get us a fair price on the home we purchased. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a home in the sarasota area

Norma went way over and beyond the call of duty on both of the properties that I purchased and one that didn't go due to knucklehead seller. She is prepared and has lots of patience and energy. Can't say enough good things about this realtor!!!
