Fred’s service was above average! Besides honest he was diligent seeking out possible homes for us. He’s knowledgeable about Sarasota and helped us get to know the various neighborhoods. Thanks for helping us to settle here!
Fred is Fantastic! Best decision I made was choosing Fred! We finally closed on my property this month. Let me tell you it was one of the hardest processes I have ever done in my life. The amount of hurdles we went through was insane! Permit delays, inspection issues, two hurricanes! Closing wouldn't have happened without a good team by my side. He was our partner throughout the process, took ownership of open items ensuring a successful closing. Thank you Fred for all your support and guidance! If you are in need of a Realtor I recommend Fred Sassen! He went above and beyond for me and will definitely do the same for you!
Fred was the best! I met with several Realtors but felt most comfortable with Fred. We were on the same page, so to say. He was confident with our listing price, professional and very diplomatic in our negotiations with potential buyers. He knows the market well and is active in the Sarasota community. And here is the best part... we listed on March 1st, had a contract by March 5th and closed on March 28th! I think that speaks volumes! If I ever buy or sell again, I wouldn't hesitate to call him.
Fred is an extremely knowledgable and detail-oriented Realtor. My wife and I have worked with him on multiple occasions. He is truly a great resource for a buyer or seller. He always picks up the phone or calls back if busy. I have worked with several Realtors over the years and Fred is the best, by far.
Fred was a consummate professional throughout the entire process. Our search for the perfect second home took months and in many instances, Fred was our eyes on the ground. He was patient, informative, and a true buyers advocate!
Fred made a tough experience Easy a pleasure to work with!!! very professional took care of and solved any problems along the way Highly recommend!!!!
Fred was there for us every step of the way from the sale of our old house to the purchase of the new one. Whenever I had a question he was readily available and turned what is often a complicated and stressful period into a pleasant transition.I won't hesitate to procure his services and expertise in any subsequent home purchases.Charles & Sindia Pennetti
Fred is the best! He has been my realtor through the purchase and sale of the first home I owned, and the purchase of my second. Both processes were completely smooth thanks to Fred's responsiveness and willingness to go the extra mile, even on short notice. He was able to get quick showings at each house I wanted to see and gave honest advice and feedback about each property. I never felt as though I was being pushed in a particular direction and knew I could trust his expert opinion on which property would work for my growing family. He knows the area well and always has recommendations for anything that might come up. Even after moving in, he has responded right away to any questions I had! Plus, Fred is a genuinely kind and pleasant person who is a joy to be around. I can't imagine using a different realtor, and I would recommend him to anyone.
Sweets the fred was a great realtor to work with..... he went out of his and quite out of the boundaries of his responsiblity on 2 occasion to help me.... he drove all the way to my house without a seconds pause and without my asking him going above and beyond what people are reaquired to do especially to help another and to do it spontaneously is a wonderful trait and i appreciated it in the sweets...
Responsive, efficient, professional and delightful to work with. His clients are lucky!
Fred was incredibly professional and helped facilitate negotiating the purchase of our new house expertly. I plan to refer any friends and family to him in the future.
My husband and I recently moved to Sarasota. We were introduced to Fred Sassen through a mutual friend. Fred initially took us on a tour of the greater Sarasota area and explained what the different neighborhoods have to offer. Once we were familiar with the area we were off and running to find the perfect home. Fred is an excellent communicator and incredibly patient. The three of us discussed lists of properties pros and cons, then Fred began setting up appointments for us to tour them. Freds knowledge about Florida homes and the Sarasota area really impressed us. He was able to explain things we were not familiar with in our previous state. Flood zones, hurricane windows(or shutters), different types of insurance needed etc. Fred and his team took care of us every step of the way. His business partner accompanied us in times when Fred was(rarely) unavailable. We always felt we could rely on them to help answer questions or get us into a showing. Their constant availability via text or phone call was comforting. We always had someone we could talk with. With Freds guidance we successfully purchased our dream home on Siesta Key. There is no other real estate agent we would rather work with for future purchases. I would absolutely recommend Fred and his highly skilled team to anyone looking to purchase a home in Sarasota.
I have been through many buy/sell property transactions, and this was so smooth ansd easy. Fred was outstanding, he went above and beyond to show me many properties, provide comps, helped with inspection, and all around was just great to work with! I don't live in Florida so having extra help (before, during and after close) was really important and appreciated. Highly recommend Fred and Michael Saunders!!
Fred is amazing! He is very knowledgeable about the market and always provided sound guidance and support. He is always willing to help with anything we need and goes above and beyond necessary to ensure everything is taken care of and handled properly. Fred is no longer just our realtor, he is also our friend!
From start to finish, Fred exceeded all expectations. Patient, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable, he guided me seamlessly through the entire home selling process
Being new to Sarasota, Fred educated us on the different neighborhoods Sarasota has to offer. He truly listened to what we wanted in a home and found it for us!! Fred's knowledge of the market, combined with his calm, professional approach, made our home buying experience a great one!!! We highly recommend him.
Fred was great to work with. Our experience buying in Sarasota was smooth and Fred helped us find just what we were looking for. He was knowledgeable, professional and on top of it from the beginning of our search through the closing. Thank you!
Not only was Fred knowledgeable, he was patient, understanding and absolutely grasped what I was looking for. My interactions with Fred did not end at Closure. He followed up after I moved in, was helpful with resources and is very, very good at what he does. It has been an honor to know and to work with Fred.
