I’ve worked with Roberta Tengerdy three times now—in 2008 when I bought my first home, then in 2022 when my wife sold her home, and again in 2025 when my wife and I sold our first home. I wouldn’t use anyone else. Roberta works incredibly hard for her clients and has a remarkable ability to negotiate. She will fight for you every step of the way. I worked mostly with Roberta, but also with Carolyn Barker Collins, and together they make a fantastic team. When the Sarasota real estate market was hot, their expertise was invaluable, but when the market cooled down more recently, it became absolutely crucial. They know how to assess the true value of your home and how to advocate for you so that you get the best outcome possible. What really stands out is their honesty. They don't just tell you what you want to hear—she tells you what you need to hear. For example, they told me my yard needed fixing up before listing. It created a lot of work for me, but she was right, and it made a difference. Even more importantly, they put our interests ahead of their own when we we were selling. That kind of integrity is rare, and it showed me how trustworthy they really are. If you’re looking for agents who will work tirelessly, negotiate fiercely, and always put your interests first, I can’t recommend Roberta and Carolyn highly enough.
