Doug is the best. He was a realtor in the past and will continue to be in the future. We highly recommend him to all our friends.
We are so happy we selected Doug Parks to list our condo. We have known Doug for some time and knew of his stellar reputation for selling condos in Sarasota. He was very attentive to our needs, patient with all our questions, and on top of all the details during the listing, negotiation and closing processes. Having bought and sold over 10 homes during our lifetime, we can truly say this was the best experience we have ever had. We would highly recommend Doug to anyone thinking of buying or selling a home.
I was introduced to Doug by mutual friends, Jan and Terry H., in October. Doug identified properties for me and communicated changes in the market to me at my home in La Jolla, CA until January when I made an offer. He anticipated my needs and was always available to answer my questions. He made me feel that he is genuinely a friend. (It helps that now he is my next door neighbor.). I can only state that Doug provided “exceptional service” and made the entire process an interesting and relatively easy process. Also, his assistant and the people at Norton Hammersley were professional and personable. I love my new home!
