I've known Joe for the last five years having met him when we bought a property he had listed. That experience was unlike any real estate experience I'd ever had. Flawless, seamless, and yes enjoyable. We subsequently asked Joe to market a condo we had to sell. We had a contract two days after listing it. I just concluded my third transaction with Joe and like the previous two, he did an amazing job for us. This is a person with an enormous knowledge of the market and has people skills that are off the chart. If you plan to buy a home, there is no one better equipped to maximize the value if you are selling or to find and negotiate the best deal if you are buying.

Joe is the consummate real estate professional. I have had three separate real estate transactions guided by Joe and frankly each experience has been nothing short of monumental. He will always be my "go to" for any real estate needs I have. There is simply no one better in the Sarasota market.

Joe was a pleasure to work with. He was always willing to help with any request we had. He was professional but warm and friendly. We highly recommend him.

Joe was a professional but friendly agent. We were very pleased with him. We highly recommend him. He was very willing to help with any requests we had. He was very knowledgeable of all aspects of selling.

Joes expertise about the market in every situation is second to none. He sees the strategic shifts coming and the tactical nuance of each neighborhood. Never pass up an opportunity for Joe to give you the very best knowledge to sell your home.

As an out-of-state real estate agent myself, I have very high expectations for any agent who would be assisting me with buying our vacation home. I stumbled upon Joe and I am so happy that I did. He was extremely knowledgeable about all the different neighborhoods and amenities around Lakewood Ranch. His communication and response time were great. He was very familiar with all of the properties on the market and was quick to send us homes that met our criteria. He definitely watched out for our best interests and acted with professionalism and experience throughout the entire process. His negotiation skills are top-notch and I wouldn’t hesitate to refer Joe to anyone looking for a home in the greater Sarasota area.

Great agent…great team. Have bought and sold several properties with Joe Murphy and he has never failed to deliver.

Joe was fast to respond, always available to show us properties, or help us negotiate something that needed to be done. He always had a referral for a service needed and has continued to follow up with us post sale.

Joe was the perfect person to help me advertise and sell my home in a timely manner. He worked hard to keep buyers interested and came up with creative solutions to help close the deal. The real estate market has been tough due to interest rates and lots of homes available. Also listed this home in an election year which is always a tough time to sell. Fortunately for me, Joe has always risen to the challenge and gets the job done. If you’re considering buying or selling a home, please talk to Joe Murphy. Joe has helped me buy and sell three different properties over the past ten years. He has a great knowledge of the communities and always available to help in any situation. Always a pleasure working with Joe.

Thanks Joe, for selling our house in Lorraine Lakes in Lakewood Ranch. I am glad to recommend you and your team to others. We appreciated your good communications and skillful navigation of the tricky market at the time, in face of a glut of similar homes in the area.

I had the pleasure of working with Joe Murphy from Coldwell Banker in Sarasota, Florida, and I can’t speak highly enough about the outstanding service he provided. From our first conversation to the final closing, Joe was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive to every detail. What truly sets Joe apart is his deep understanding of the Sarasota real estate market. He provided insightful guidance and honest advice throughout the process, ensuring I felt confident and informed at every step. He was always available to answer questions, handled negotiations with ease, and made what could have been a stressful experience feel seamless and straightforward. Joe’s dedication to his clients is unmatched—he genuinely cared about finding the right property and worked tirelessly to make it happen. His friendly demeanor and no-pressure approach made it easy to trust his recommendations and feel supported the entire time. Whether you’re buying or selling in Sarasota, I wholeheartedly recommend Joe Murphy. His expertise, integrity, and commitment to excellent service make him an outstanding real estate agent.

We met Joe at an open house he was hosting. He seemed like a great guy and seemed to know his stuff. I had mentioned that I was wanting to sell my house. We looked at a few more properties with other agents but weren’t impressed. So a couple of weeks later I called Joe and said we wanted to make an offer on the house he had sold us on. And his response was that’s great, by the way I was going to call you because I have a work up on selling your house. He sold us our new home and sold my old house. Perfection
