Steve and Wendy did an excellent job with selling our unique home and Steve was very patient with our buying of our new condo. I highly recommend them both

My experience with Steve Abbe could not have been better. He found the perfect house for me to purchase and sold my house in record time. He was there for any question I had an answered in a responsive and knowledgeable manner.

Steve has the experience and knowledge for a smooth real estate transaction. He knows the Sarasota and particularly the Oaks lifestyle and can steer you to the right property to fit your family. This is our second real estate transaction with Steve and would call him again in a heart beat, Great communication!

Steve made the entire process very easy and well organized.

Steve is a true professional. He is very knowledgeable of the business. He has a strong sense of urgency and operates with true integrity. He understands the market in Sarasota and Osprey. He has worked with us on the sale of three of our homes I would recommend Steve for a buyer or a seller that wants a true quality representative that achieves quick results. We love him!!!

From our introductory meeting to the closing, Steve handled every detail with confidence-inspiring ease. Questions were anticipated. He's a real professional & a pleasure to work with. I would engage him again & recommend him.

Easy experience working with Steve Abbe and Wendy Ross. From start to finish I was keenly aware that I was dealing with the very best. I flew in from Sioux Falls SD very late on a Saturday , by Tuesday’s sunset all the T’s had been crossed and the I’s dotted! I flew home with my dream condo in my grasp. Those three days were a whirl wind of documents that needed to be signed, information that I needed to dig up to give to them, etc. , they guided me at every turn, and kept me apprised of what they might need next and what I could expect around the corner. They both clearly know the in and outs of the realty world, as well as the Sarasota area. Were able to help me choose the major players in my journey during the process. Attorneys, Mortgage providers, insurance companies, movers, on & on. Grateful to have had this team as MY team!

Steve was a delight to work with. His knowledge of The Oaks was very helpful for us - both in deciding that the community is the one that best suits our needs as well as in finding our ideal property there. Steve represented us, the buyers, as well as the sellers - and did so with fairness (not always an easy thing to do). He was exceedingly prompt with his responses to all of our questions and requests - and did a good job of keeping the sale in track and moving along in a timely manner. I strongly recommend Steve as a realtor - for both buyers and sellers.

Very patient! We had to see everything available, revisited the finalists, considered remodeling one, trying to find the best alternative. We made bids on several different properties before finally getting a contract. Steve was very dogged in helping us sort things out. Had a good grasp about what could be done to tailor things to our specs and a good handle on the costs for various projects and who to use to get the work done. He is a very hard worker, and is quick to respond to calls. He has a great staff that helps you make the most of your time and his.

Steve is the consummate professional...he is prompt, curious, knowledgeable, and goes above and beyond for his clients...I have been confined to my home due to a serious injury, and Steve came to the house regularly in order to handle transactions, including bringing a notary with him for execution of documents...I would highly recommend his services and will personally use him for all of my real estate needs... I only question his choice of UGA for his under grad work...Roll Tide! Steve & Beverly Johnson

When we decided to begin the process of finding a home in Sarasota more than two years before we'd actually move there, we had the very good fortune of picking Steve Abbe as the real estate agent to help us. From our very first meeting with Steve it was obvious that he knows the Sarasota housing market inside and out. Steve's wealth of knowledge about Sarasota and the golf course community real estate market in particular, gave us a level of confidence that put our minds at ease during what can be a very stressful experience. Even though we weren't planning to move for quite some time, Steve was always patient and understanding as he put in the time and effort to help us find a home that was just right for us. Steve is the consummate professional, and never once did he make us feel hurried or pressured to reach a decision. Sometimes in life, you just get lucky. We feel we were very lucky to have had the opportunity to work with Steve. Based on our experience with Steve over the last couple of years, we can recommend him enthusiastically and without reservation to anyone in the market for a home in the Sarasota area.

Steve knows the area extremely well. He also has valuable insights into marketing a home. Having work as a head gold professional at 2 area Clubs, he is very familiar with all the amenities at The Oaks Club and Prestancia. He always makes himself available for showings and was helpful in assisting the completion of necessary repair projects to the property when we were out of town.
