I've never worked with an agent who is as dedicated and conscientious as JoDene Moneuse. I feel like she is the gold standard in this business and goes above and beyond expectations in every respect. I've already used her twice with my real estate transactions and will continue to use her in the future. Thank you, Ms. Moneuse, for providing such an amazing experience with buying and selling real estate!
JoDene Moneuse was both the listing agent and our agent during the sale.It can sometimes be difficult to have the same agent acting as both the sellers and buyers representative. I believe JoDene acted fairly and provided all the information for a mutually acceptable deal. Once the negotiation phase was finished she helped us with the closing process. Since we were out of town for most of it this process she made things a lot easier. She offered us several choices for services that needed to be done so that we could then make our independent choices. JoDene also became our agent for the sale of our Condo at 4390 Exeter. I believe she did a great job at representing and arranging the property for sale. She would make her suggestions and listen to what we wanted during the process and was very respectful of our decisions. She is always happy and energetic and ready to jump in and help us out. That is an invaluable attribute.
Bradenton is my home town and I was looking to return after a 38-year absence. JoDene was recommended to me by a family member. I worked with her on my very short schedule and through a storm. She put together a comprehensive list of all properties within my personal requirements that had to be covered quickly. JoDene stayed in touch with me constantly and wrapped things up for me in short order. I enjoyed working with her through a process that I had not undertaken in a very long time. Her enthusiasm was refreshing.
JoDene is excellent! She was such a blessing during our home search and ultimate purchase! As a long term resident of the area, she was able to provide valuable insight. She is personable, responsive, reliable and competent. We recommend her to anyone looking for their dream home! We were so happy to have found her!
My wife and I recently listed our Longboat Key home for sale with your agent, JoDene Moneuse, and could not be more pleased with her efforts, her creativity, her attention to detail, her sense of humor, her organization, her patience and her professionalism. She also drives the coolest car on Longboat Key. JoDene made the process painless and her continuing communication left us with no room for surprises. To anyone interested in working with one of the best Realtors in the area, JoDene would be my first choice.
We have been trying to sell our condo in north Longboat Key for a long time putting it on and taking it off the market. When JoDene Moneuse got involved she actively marketed it and sold it to buyers site unseen. Through her perseverance and creative marketing during the pandemic, she got the job done.
I had the pleasure of working with Jodene for the sale of my previous home as well as the purchase of my current home, both on Longboat Key. Her knowledge, expertise, and wonderful personality made both transactions far easier than I expected. She is truly exceptional and has lifetime of experience in the Sarasota and Bradenton area. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell. D. Nelson
You can’t go wrong with choosing JoDene Moneuse. She handled the sale of my Longboat Key condo and the purchase of my Sarasota villa with professionalism, excellent real estate acumen, and a contagious enthusiasm. I had total confidence that everything was moving along smoothly throughout the process (and it did). In addition to her expertise, she displays a positive, exuberant effervescence that makes her a joy to work with. I can whole-heartedly recommend using JoDene for any of your real estate needs.
Hard knowledgeable worker Interviewed a lot of real estate brokers for the sale of my condo, and her presentation and matter with them all out hands-down.

JoDene works very hard, is always available and always has a smile on her face. She is such a pleasure to work with and we hope to do more business in the future with her as our very favorite real estate agent!
JoDene has been so helpful throughout our purchasing process. Her positivity and relentless hard work has been a joy. Thank you!
My wife and I worked with JoDene to purchase our home on Longboat Key, Florida. Working with JoDene was the very best experience I have ever had in dealing with a real estate agent [and I have had many previous dealings]. I honestly must say that working with JoDene felt like we were receiving concierge service. She is that amazing. JoDene is so sincere and authentic – she truly cares about you as both a customer and person. When asking questions either via email, phone, or text, I would get a response in minutes! This was absolutely astonishing to me, and a very pleasant contrast with most of the other real estate agents I have worked with. And – she clearly is an expert in the real estate field and knows her stuff. I can’t imagine a better experience from a real estate agent. Thanks again, JoDene, for all your hard work and wonderful buying experience with our new home!
JoDene has been my neighbor for over 26 years; always friendly, helpful, and caring. When it recently became time for me to sell my house, she got the job done in literally minutes with a contract sensitive to my needs and wants! I can’t say enough about this energetic, lovely woman who I am happy to say is my real estate agent and friend!
As a seller in West Bradenton I listed my home with an old friend,if I had known the professionalism with which JoDene conducted her affairs there is no doubt she would have been my first choice by far. In the future wether buying or selling she will be my go to Realtor,hands down.! Paul Russo
Hardest working realtor I have ever met. Driven, well-spoken and knowledgeable. I would trust in selling my property anywhere anytime, as a matter of fact I have.
I have had the absolute pleasure to work with JoDene professionally on three major transactions. She tirelessly helped me find the perfect home to begin a new chapter with my children and she also courageously negotiated and sealed the deal with the closing of two other homes and another one of life's chapters. Her knowledge, her ability to read the market, and her willingness to always be available for me....well...meant the absolute world to me. I have plans on doing some other things with real estate and I can't think of anyone to help with these next pursuits than JoDene! I love you, JoDene! You are a boss woman!!
I want you to know how much we appreciate all your time, knowledge, and patience helping us purchase our new home. We were so impressed with how quickly and efficiently you handled all aspects of the buying process. We will happily recommend you to anyone.
I want to express my pleasure and gratitude in working with JoDene Moneuse on the sale of my property. JoDene was recommended to me by a friend who had recently worked with her and bragged about how absolutely wonderful she was in selling her property. As I desired a quick sale, I wanted to make sure I chose a realtor who was professional, understood the market and would advise me on any changes I needed to make to ensure a quick sale at a good price. I chose JoDene after interviewing two other agents and selected her based on her quick assessment (with no holds barred) on what improvements I needed to make to get the best price. One realtor didn't think any improvements were necessary while another suggested more costly improvements. JoDene was right in the middle, but her confidence and immediate feedback on how to effectively market the property sold me on her. I was not disappointed. After following her recommendationsto the letter (down to the color of shower curtain) I was rewarded with 4 offers in the first week! She carefully walked me though the pros and cons of each offer before I chose a buyer. Although the financing fell through on that offer, she was able to go back to those who were previously interested and quickly came back with another great offer. At this point she had earned my complete trust so I felt confident as she steered me through the negotiations to get the exact price I wanted. JoDene (I call her Superstar (2)) understands the market and knows how to sell real estate! On top of that, she's a kind person. I look forward to working with her again in the future.
There are not enough words or space here to convey how remarkable JoDene is and specifically was to our search for a place in paradise. Her knowledge and guidance steered us into the perfect home on Longboat Key. From the start she always acted more as our counselor/advisor/friend and never as a "sales" person. We are so very appreciative to her and to all the Michael Saunders' staff for making this seamless!
My husband and I decided to transition from a condo to a house on Longboat Key. We met JoDene when we came across a house that fit our needs. She was so great at facilitating the process for us that we also asked her to sell our condo, which was sold just weeks after listing it! She goes above and beyond your expectations and doesn’t make you feel pressured in any way. I would definitely recommend her for either side of the real estate process that you find yourself.
I’m a snowbird and JoDene has been my neighbor and caretaker and Woman Friday for over 20 years! She is such a hard working, caring and kind person in everything she does! I’m not selling but if I were, would give JoDene the listing! She’s a gem!
JoDene was such a helpful partner in finding the home we were looking for in Longboat Key. We had a unique experience where we were purchasing remotely and JoDene was able to do virtual tours of properties for us. She helped us find us just what we were looking for as well as helped us negotiate a price we were comfortable paying! We loved working with JoDene!
JoDene has the artist eye & is detail oriented. She was showing me a condo near the water and I commented on how well done the furnishings and art work was. That’s when she explained about her staging experience. The before and after pics were very impressive. When I DO make the decision to move to the island SHE will definitely be the agent for us.
JoDene is so awesome there aren’t enough superlatives to describe her! She has been my neighbor and friend for 28 years and I always knew once I was ready to sell she would get it done! She is full of energy, positivity, and kindness in everything she does. She got my house sold within not even one hour of listing with a rental agreement for me that enabled my move to a new condo to be stress-free! And she found my next place! I am 110% pleased with JoDene as my realtor and she’s a true pleasure to work with!
Worked with JoDene on staging a house she had for sale. She’s extremely delightful and professional to work with. I hope to work with her a lot in the future!
JoDene guided our family through the difficult process of selling our Mom’s home and made it much easier than I anticipated. I’m truly grateful!!!!
She hit the ground running from the beginning to the end. With her Artistic eye, she staged the home very professionally. It was my moms home for 50 years, who had died recently. I just kept thinkingI wish My mom could of seen how great it looked. It sold fast, at a fair price, which she helped us establish. She also does not think twice about moving a piece of furniture. I was in Colorado, so she did 110% of the job. Your lucky to have her, and I would recommend her to anyone. Susan and Bob Dockery
You're one in a million, JoDene. Thank you for your attention to detail, sensitivity, real estate expertise, and above and beyond "can do" spirit. But most of all your friendship.
I have had the pleasure of dealing with JoDene as a buyer as well as a seller. The purchase of my home was flawless with no hiccups. And the sale of my condo...multiple offers and under contract in only 2 days!! Dealing with her is like dealing with an old friend! She takes on all tasks with her huge smile, and makes the whole process easy and fun. Her experience in this market is invaluable. She will not steer you wrong. I can't imagine ever dealing with anyone else.
JoDene was very professional in an extremely challenging contract situation. I look forward to working with her again if the opportunity arises.
She hit the ground running from start to finish. She went beyond what is required, adding her artistic eye, to staging the property. It was my moms house who had died after 50 years living there, and all I could do was wish she could of seen how great JoDene made it look. It sold fast at a fair price she helped us establish. I was in Colorado the whole time, so she did 110% of the Job. She is always positive, and professional. Not to mention she thinks nothing of moving a piece of furniture on her own. Your lucky to have her. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Susan and Bob Dockery
A professional, knowledgeable and personable agent who makes the harrowing ordeal of buy/sell seem almost easy. She really is a gem and no wonder she is such a success. Hard work is the key.
