My husband and I had a great experience with Julie. We were purchasing from out of state and she was so patient with us with our endless questions and FaceTime calls. She is super knowledge and would totally work with her again in the future!
Selling our home was a smooth and stress-free experience thanks to our realtor. From listing the property to closing the sale, they were professional, knowledgeable, and always available to answer our questions. Their expertise in pricing, marketing, and negotiations helped us sell our home quickly and for a great price. We truly appreciated their dedication, excellent communication, and attention to detail throughout the entire process. We highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell or buy a home. Thank you for making this such a positive experience!
Working with Dante as my realtor for my home purchase in Sarasota was an outstanding experience. He exceeded my expectations in every way and made the entire process smooth, stress-free, and enjoyable. His knowledge of the real estate market is incredible, and he guided me through each step with patience, clarity, and confidence. I always felt informed and never pressured, which made a huge difference in such an important decision. What I appreciated most was his responsiveness, professionalism, and genuine care in helping me find the right home. His attention to detail and strong negotiation skills really stood out. I highly recommend Dante to anyone buying or selling in Sarasota—he truly goes above and beyond for his clients.
The Cleary’s helped us find a home in Sarasota while we were still living in North Carolina. They took the time to learn exactly what we were looking for and found it very quickly. Excellent realtors and even better people!
We can start over 14 months ago when I was referred to Shawna by my previous realtor in Orlando. From day one, she was one of the most patient, knowledgeable, and kind-hearted people I’ve ever worked with. This was so much more than a real estate transaction. As someone who was still new to the area, I went through countless changes in location preferences and priorities. To be honest, I wasn’t always sure exactly what I wanted, but I usually had an idea—and Shawna always kept an open mind and helped guide me through the process. She consistently checked in, made herself available whenever I wanted to see properties, and was incredibly easy to reach. Her knowledge of the market and dedication to her clients are second to none. Over the course of 14 months, she wrote more than half a dozen offers for me, and eventually one finally stuck—in an area I never would have considered when we first started looking. Throughout the entire journey, she remained patient, supportive, and committed to helping me find the right home. Not only did she connect me with a fantastic mortgage lender and closing team, but she also became a realtor I will recommend to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Shawna is truly one of the best in the business, and I am incredibly grateful for the connection and for everything she did to help me become a homeowner.
Answered all of our questions promptly, went out of their way to make sure everything went smoothly
Argelia and Richard were a great team! They were very knowledgeable about the area and knew what to look for when shopping for our new home. Argelia was very helpful as to what was a good offer on the new house and we feel that the process went very smoothly. I am thrilled with the new place!

We just closed our 2nd transaction with Joe and Missy, and they were incredible to work with yet again! Their experience and expertise shines through in everything they do. Joe is an excellent communicator, and he served as a valuable sounding board throughout the process. Challenges will arise in any real estate transaction. It pays to work with someone who has been there before and knows how to navigate those challenges. We are beyond happy with our new home, and we truly wouldn't be here without The Cleary Group. We look forward to celebrating this personal milestone with Joe and Missy!
Andree knows the market. She knows how to promote and sell in this environment -- both the local housing economy and the geographic area. She also will go the extra mile to advance a sale from targeted marketing to special customer service. It's a 24/7 commitment that will always result in a sale.
Celine was so great to work with. She was super helpful as we were moving across the country to an area we had never even heard of before! She really look the time to explain everything to us and send tons of real time pictures and videos. We really appreciate her help and will refer our friends and family to her in the future!
