Scotty was a friendly and available agent for every phase of the sales process. His knowledge of the Sarasota marketplace was obvious and reassuring. Total satisfaction with both the purchase and sale of the same property characterized owner and agent exchanges over the course of several years.

Karen was/is a gem. I came across this condo & I got ahold of her & told her I had to have it. It's a long story but I knew in my heart that I had to have this condo & Karen went way out of her way to make this possible. Always available for me whether to answer questions, to find out info for me ...she was always available. When it came time to make an offer she knew what she was doing & that's how I got it. It got to where I wasn't calling her Karen...I was calling her my Guardian Angel. I thank God I met Karen & I chose Karen to be not only my realtor but my friend & most certainly my Guardian Angel. God Bless you Karen🙏. Love ya & thank you💖

We came for a month from out of state looking for the perfect area. Rick was very patient with us. Sending us all the listings that fit our interests. We found our dream house on one of the listings he sent us after we came home. Very scary move for us but Rick guided us with the purchase. He made us feel very comfortable, sight unseen is the normal these days. We were lucky everything worked out. Paul Wheeler was a big help for Rick in our sale. They both help us and guided us with all our questions. Paul was there with us during the inspection and will be doing the walk thru when the sellers move out. Since we are still out of state. We appreciate Rick and Paul for all they did for us.

Karen is knowledgeable, professional and great communicator. Her and I were on the same page from the beginning. We had similar tastes, likes and dislikes. She helped take the stress out of the home purchasing process in today's chaotic market. I would strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a Realator.
Karen Pulfer
She went above and beyond to help us in anyway we needed as we live out of state. We are very grateful for her professional and personal touch during this process. She guided us through all the ins and outs and provided sound advice concerning all aspects of this journey. We could not be more pleased with her integrity and work ethic. Thank you again Melanie for everything you did to make this process as smooth as possible. God Bless You!

I am very pleased that a friend suggested I contact Diane about selling my house in Stoneybrook. Diane came to my house in May 2021 for our first meeting. I knew at the end of our meeting that I wanted her to sell my house. She is very professional and during the next nine months until the sale of my house and the closing of my new house, Diane was always there for me. She answered all of my questions thru the entire process of both selling my house and finding and purchasing a new house. When I left her voicemail messages she always returned my calls promptly and always responded to my text messages. She explained the process and procedures and I always was confident that things would end with good results and they surely did. I highly recommend Diane to anyone looking to sell or buy property. I'm 100% pleased and know others would be also.

Karen made the entire process, from searching to closing, as smooth as possible especially in light of the current state of the real estate market. We are long distance buyers and she went out of her way to show us properties via Facetime and give us her take on the various neighborhoods we were looking into. She was always available, professional and very helpful. She helped us navigate the crazy bidding process and we were successful in closing on a property. We would definitely recommend her as an agent

Brenda was without a doubt the essential reason we now own a home in Florida. We were shopping remotely from New England and in an ultra competitive market, Brenda's help to guide us through offers, provide market insight and be our boots on the ground was priceless. She would be someone that I would highly recommend. She is more than our Realtor, she has become our friend.

Amy was very friendly. She always replied to our texts and emails. She always answered our questions giving us all options and giving us the pros and cons of each. She also was on top of all the deadlines. She was excellent in negotiating with the other realtor especially when the sellers were not out by closing. We will definitely recommend her to all our family and friends.

Rick made the home selling experience so easy for our busy family. He drove the whole process, from initial discussions on the local housing market to getting us under contract, in a short period of time. Rick is knowledgeable about the market and neighborhood, promptly answered every question we had, recommended quality contractors when needed, and ultimately led us to a smooth and successful home sale. I would recommend Rick to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!
Rick De Barros
We choose Rick every time! This home that Rick De Barros just sold for us was the very home he helped us find about 3 years ago! Our story is that we do move a lot due to work and there are a lot of excellent agents to choose from, but Rick is our go-to. He answers his phone, he returns calls and texts communicating anything big or small. Rick pursues details regarding the sale of the house down to the surveys and future projects that may affect any purchase. He flushes out answers to questions that I had no idea I had to ask. In my opinion it is a duty to understand some of the process I am about to embark on. Rick handled all of my questions and I had confidence to just let him "do his job", for I am not a professional in Real Estate. I am glad I could rely on him as we had to move on to the next phase quickly. Also, Rick has what seems like unlimited resources in his contact list that can help fix or answer any question. No kidding. I know, a story, but it's true: We had a "sticky" sliding door on our house from day 1, we just lived with it as we thought since the previous owners lived with it, it must be a huge fix. Then came the sad day of our open house (sad, as this was an amazing home to live in), Rick called a "guy", they did some phone troubleshooting to no avail and the "guy" showed up the NEXT day. Within 30 minutes you could slide - or should I say glide - that door open/close with 1 finger (facepalm on us). When we listed, he directed us on how to de-clutter our home for pictures and for the open house. Of course, we all know to "tone" it down, but, it's nice to get some set guidelines to follow as it's a hard emotional task to dismantle a life. Rick De Barros is straightforward and a quality person to deal with when buying or selling your home. He will inform, research and sell your home in a very professional manner. I wish him well! - Rebecca
