While shopping for a home in Florida may sound like fun, it is really hard work sandwiched in between the initial dream and the final victory. Barbara Saputo worked with us on a daily basis, chasing leads, sharing her extensive knowledge of the Sarasota County area (and beyond), pointing us towards new possibilities, and guiding us in the final negotiation. Through it all, Barbara always maintained a calm and even keel. She is an excellent listener and quickly adjusted to our changes in direction. That is so necessary when involved in a dynamic activity like buying a house in the current Florida market. We highly recommend Barbara to everyone who needs real estate services where she is located. They will not be disappointed.

Purchasing a home long distance it’s not an easy task unless you have Barbara Saputo as your realtor. She guided us (and practically held my hand) from beginning to end. I strongly recommend her. Again, thanks Barbara. You were right, this is the perfect home for me!

Barb pays attention to what you are telling her you are looking to buy. She does not waist your time showing listing that you are not interested in buying. Barb knows the area points you to them and shows you real estate you are looking to buy. She does not waist your time on real estate that you are not interested in buying. BARB is a Pro....

Barbara is very efficient and covers all bases. She kept us updated on all communications. We rate her A++.

Barb was very knowledgeable to my needs. She listened to me describe what I hoped to find. She then sent me properties daily. Her expertise helped me narrow down my search. She asked the right questions and then her suggestions helped me focus. Barb always returned my calls, texts or emails promptly. I’m very satisfied.

What can we say, Barbara was the best. We were from out of town, a friend recommended Barbara. Before we came to Venice told Barbara what we were looking for & spent a couple days with us showing properties she showed us exactly what we requested. But then we decided to build in Island Walk - since we were from out of town she kept us notified of the building of our home with pictures and also since we couldn't be at the house for final inspection she was there. Barbara made everything painless from start to closing. would recommend Barbara to anyone.

Barbara was very knowledgeable and kept me up to date what sold and what came on the market.
