Hi, I'm Kathleen Stansfield. A full-time Realtor/Resident in Venice Florida, and service the surrounding counties of Sarasota, Manatee and Charlotte. I've been licensed since 2013 and hold the GRI designation (Graduate of the Realtor Institute), the MCNE designation (Master Certified Negotiating Expert), the ABR (Accredited Buyers Representative), the PSA (Pricing Strategy Advisor), the SRES (Senior Real Estate Specialist), the RSPS (Resort and Second Home Specialist), and the SFR (Short Sale Foreclosure Representative).
As an agent, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise about Buying and Selling Real Estate in this area. Real Estate differs dramatically from state to state, so you need someone you can trust for local and up-to-date information. I promise to provide you with the Communication and Responsiveness that you want, the Process Knowledge that you need, and the Process Transparency you want, which will give you the Trust you deserve.
For buyers, I offer and leverage my knowledge in getting them the best property for their money while educating them on the local value of location, amenities, renovated home versus opportunity to remodel yourself, looking past staging and new paint on the walls.
For sellers, I leverage this experience in helping them address any potential issues before the listing and help them make any needed fixes that might come up at resale in order to yield them the maximum value. I refer and leverage the use of my personal Rolodex of contractors and tradesmen that I have personally vetted and used on my own projects.
