We most recently closed on the sale of our condo; it has been in my family since it was built in 1970. Maruta Miluns was the listing agent. Both my wife, Jean, who has been in real estate for over 22 years in Grosse Pointe, MI, and I are so grateful to Maruta for how she used her sales and negotiating skills, in addition to the marketing tools and agent-wide network, to bring in multiple offers and ultimately, to work one of these to close at a price that met our expectations. We think Maruta has certainly earned our respect, trust and friendship. We are truly satisfied customers.
Maruta Miluns was highly recommended to me as a diligent and professional real estate agent with an impeccable reputation and excellent track record in selling Longboat Key & Sarasota properties. Since I was especially interested in a purchase at the Whitney Beach Condominium Association located at the north end of Longboat Key, our relationship became a perfect match: Maruta had several listings at that particular condominium association, as well as, several additional listings located near-by. As a matter of fact, Maruta was referred to as the “Queen of Sales” at Whitney Beach Association. I must admit for a moment, I did wonder if Maruta, by having the responsibility of so many properties on her plate, would be able to provide adequate attention to find my perfect Longboat Key Gulf-front condo in a timely fashion and, of course, at a desired price. Any hesitations quickly dissolved. From our very first meeting, it became quite clear that although Maruta’s portfolio was extensive, she would be focused and driven to find that specific property that I would immediately “love” and connect with. Maruta’s passion, persistence, and commitment were overwhelmingly evident and provided me with the confidence and trust that my search for that special property was in the best hands possible.I am a mature, and must admit, emotional buyer who resides mostly in the northeast; thus I am unfamiliar with details of Florida real estate procedures. Maruta’s knowledge, expertise, and guidance through-out the buying process was always present; not only was there complete confidence and trust but soon there was the realization that she truly cared and there was a friendship/bond between us. It was also evident that it was important to her that I felt informed and “comfortable” at all times during the purchasing process. All these factors were greatly appreciated.Maruta was extremely responsive and always answered my texts, telephone calls and emails promptly with a friendliness and joy in her voice no matter how trivial or small my concern or question might have been. And yes, Maruta did find that perfect condominium for me; and at a great price! Maruta continually checked-in with me; was reassuring; and made sure that I was comfortable and satisfied with how the process was proceeding. There was never any doubt or pressure during the entire journey; I was always well informed and kept in-the-loop.Maruta is the consummate professional and it was an extreme pleasure to work with her. The insight, dedication, guidance and service provided by Maruta Miluns was outstanding; but most importantly it is the bottom-line (Finding That Perfect Condo) the results, that Maruta achieved that demonstrated to me that she is truly the BEST! Maruta is just unbeatable. I would highly highly recommend Maruta Miluns (110%) to represent any buyer or seller for any and all Longboat Key/Sarasota properties.
I am very happy with all the intense work Maruta did in order to sell our condo. She kept me up to date with showings and progress with potential clients. She has been a God send and I truly appreciate all she did to make it happen.
Over the past ten years of renting, we heard about the high cost of ownership vs. renting. Maruta completely explained the advantages of purchasing. She supplied us with all the costs involved in ownership, choices of insurance companies, title service costs plus a number of other contractors. She simplified the process for us.
Maruta handled the transaction with care and consideration from the moment she accepted our listing. We were given updates every week and we were more than comfortable calling with questions or concerns as she always had time for us, or would respond within an hour or so. Given that we live in Canada, we truly put our condo in Maruta’s hands and walked away with confidence that all would be taken care of and indeed it was. We are so pleased with the professional relationship we had with Maruta and would refer her to anyone without a moment’s hesitation.
Maruta Miluns, the realtor for our sale, was wonderful. She was extremely helpful not only to us, but also to our buyers.
I have never seen a Realtor ® work as hard as Maruta did on our listing. For the last seventeen months in a horrible market, she delivered, from local and internet ads to brochures and open houses. The neighbors marveled at the number of open houses she held all those months.
During this 8 month period, my broker, Maruta Miluns worked tirelessly and extremely effectively to make this sale happen. Maruta is an excellent real estate broker with extensive experience and a wide range of knowledge about any issue which came up. As a recovering lawyer, it was a real pleasure for me to work with such an accomplished professional. Terry Segal
Maruta Miluns worked tirelessly to assist in presenting the property for sale, holding countless showings; and used her skills to guide the negotiations in a positive way. Even after we de-listed the house for a couple of the worst years, we just had to come back to her when we listed again--she really earned our respect and even admiration for her work ethic. It was her extra hard work and determination that made everything come out great at the end.
The sale of my condo at Whitney Beach was recently finalized with outstanding guidance and hard work ofMaruta Milnus. Maruta was with me every step of the way with her advice, suggestions and almost daily contact.She followed up every lead, answered my questions—which were numerous—with great patience and made the answers very clear.I was impressed with her commitment and hard work. MS is fortunate to have such an Agent.
I have personally known Maruta for almost 20 years and because of our enduring friendship, when it came to my family choosing a realtor, she was our one and only choice. Over the years we have all had varied experiences with realtors and our choice of Maruta proved to be an outstanding one comparable to no other. We listed our condo at Longbeach Condominiums on Longboat Key with Maruta in the beginning of April and two weeks later on the fifteenth of April, left her in complete charge while we moved to Portland, Maine. She immediately took over all of the responsibilities of marketing the condo in our absence and kept in touch with us on an almost daily basis. Her diligence in initially helping us packing out, then staging the condo, photographing it, supervising all the needed repairs, working with the condo association representatives, the purchasing agent, and most of all her personal concern for our property, resulted in a sale that culminated this past week. Her suggested offering price was spot on and negotiations between us and the buyer that she handled so efficiently were minimal and successfully orchestrated to everyone's satisfaction. I could go on and on about our appreciation of the capabilities of Maruta Miluns. Suffice it to say, she is an outstanding realtor serving in all that the Michael Saunders & Company represents in the real estate market. In my estimation she is "top shelf" and I will be forever grateful for what she accomplished for us in selling our property.
I just wanted to drop a quick note to say how wonderful Maruta was in helping me through the recent purchase of a condo in Bradenton. I could not be present in the area very much, yet she found a way to make it work. I would happily recommend her to anyone looking in the area. Thank you.
Maruta is one of our most knowledgeable and professional associates. Maruta is always professional and handles her business with integrity and honesty and, we are proud to have her as an associate with Michael Saunders & Company.
We are writing to tell you how pleased we are with the services provided by Maruta in securing our new property on Longboat Key. Maruta is not only a very pleasant person, but very knowledgeable and supportive in every step of the process. We could not have asked for better service and would recommend her without hesitation. If we had to quantify our experience with Maruta, it would be 10/10. We could not have had a better experience with such an important life decision. Maruta is exceptional.
My husband and I convinced my mother that it was time to sell her condo on LBK and move with us to Maine. As you can imagine, trying to do this from so far away was a daunting task. We were so fortunate to have Maruta list the property for us. Her attention to detail in addition to her kind and loving demeanor made what could have been an extremely stressful situation into a seamless transition for our family. Maruta helped us come up with the listing price which would prevent us from having to haggle back and forth, as well as having to keep the listing on the market for a prolonged period of time. With Maruta’s help and guidance, the condo sold in under 4 months! She handled every detail for us, and I’m so thankful we intrusted her to list the condo for our family.
Maruta Miluns completely explained the advantages of purchasing versus renting. She supplied us with all the costs involved in ownership, choices of Insurance Companies, Title Service costs, etc., plus a number of other contractors who supply service in Whitney Beach. She simplified the process for us. Not only was it a pleasure dealing with Maruta, but her services were exceptional.
We put it on the market in October, 2014, it was under agreement by mid-December and closed in January, 2015. Between the listing and the agreement, Maruta hosted at least a half-dozen open houses. She presented the home at its best, on web sites, in helping us prepare for the showing, in her gracious handling of other realtors and prospects, in following up when she saw the interest, and especially in knowing how to move an interested party to close the sale. It’s true that Michael Saunders provides impressive resources behind the sale of a house, but it’s the skill of the agent that puts them together, persuades the seller of their value, and uses them effectively. Maruta is exceptional. She did a wonderful job, and we were lucky to have her representing us.
I am taking a moment to let you know that working with my wonderful real estate agent, Maruta Miluns, on the sale of my Whitney Beach condo has been an absolute pleasure! Through the entire process Maruta was encouraging and cheerful, knowledgeable and competent. My home on Longboat Key, Florida was listed and sold turnkey ready, while I was three thousand miles away, in California. Maruta took care of shipping my personal property to me, and guided me through the signing of all necessary paperwork. Maruta is a joy to work with, whether in person or separated by many miles, and without hesitation, I am happy to recommend her to anybody interested in listing their property.
Excellent sales representative for her company. She is confident, competent, and classy.
I want to share our satisfaction and appreciation for the attentive and professional service that we received from Maruta. We found Maruta to be very accessible and helpful during our purchase and even afterwards she continues to be quite helpful as we get situated as condo owners. We would not hesitate to recommend Maruta or work with her again in the future. Thank you for the positive experience that Maruta and the Michael Saunders organization brought to our transaction experience.
Maruta was referred to us by our dear friends who also purchased a condo from her. Cheerful, professional, and detail-oriented, Marutawas absolutely one of the best Realtors ® we have ever had. Her diligence and professionalism stood out in every situation including exhibiting empathy and kindness when deals did not work out. We shall most certainly highly recommend Maruta to our friends.
We wanted to send you a note to let you know how pleased we are with how Maruta Miluns handled the sale of our house on Longboat Key. She often went a long way beyond the norm. Her care and attention were invaluable to us, especially considering we were not able to be there most of the time.
I just wanted you to know what an excellent buying experience my wife Chris and I had finding a condo with Maruta Mullins. We came to Longboat Key in February of 2018 to visit with friends and hoped we could find a place to live here having retired in 2017. We worked with Maruta for over a year having her show us numerous condos that we were interested in and then when the right one came along, she was able to put all the pieces together to make the transaction happen. She constantly kept us informed in each step of the process and made sure everything was completed correctly and on time. Her referral to the mortgage lender was exactly what we needed to get the transaction completed. Many thanks to Maruta for the knowledge she has of the real estate market on Longboat Key and her efficiency in handling the transaction from start to finish.
Maruta is a true professional and knows the Longboat Key market very well. She kept us continually informed on showings and potential interested buyers. Once we had a buyer and contracts she walked us through each step of the process making us comfortable as we were in Connecticut. Maruta went beyond her responsibilities and truly made the entire experience stress free for us! Maruta is a star in our eyes.
Maruta is an extremely competent agent who anticipates and quickly and effectively handles any problem. We used her in 2012 to sell our Longboat Key condo, and are using her to buy a Longboat Key condo: 2 very wise decisions. I recommend her without any qualification; I am a recovering lawyer; she is very knowledgeable about legal aspects of real estate. Terry Philip Segal
I just wanted to write and thank you for having Ms. Miluns with your group. She came highly recommended when I was looking for a realtor to sell my mother’s condo and Whitney Beach.Ms. Miluns went beyond the call of duty in assisting an out of town seller getting the condo ready to sell, getting much needed repairs and helping us get through closing!! She truly is a jewel!
Maruta sold our condo. At all times, she handled every aspect of the transaction in a highly professional, extremely competent manner. In addition to being highly competent, Maruta is a very pleasant person who does everything yesterday, and was instantly responsive to every issue which arose. In short, it is easy to see why Maruta is such a successful real estate broker, and why your firm is so fortunate to have Maruta on your staff.
Maruta was fully prepared for each of our Longboat Key visits with a full calendar of showings, complete documentation on each property, and very good insights into the market and local buying issues. We made several offers and had a fairly complex negotiation with the seller. Maruta handled each of those efficiently and was very helpful in navigating the transaction. I have purchased and sold multiple homes but Maruta is far and away the best I have worked with.
Maruta came highly recommended to me and my husband, through some close friends of ours. Maruta always kept us informed of new listings when we returned back home in Ct. and as luck would have it, we found our dream condo! Maruta guided us professionally throughout the entire experience! Our closing went off without a hitch, but our relationship with Maruta did not end there. Whenever we had questions about the area, repair services, even places to dine, we knew Maruta would be the person to contact. Then, just recently my husband and I, decided it was time for a change. Once again, and without hesitation, we called on Maruta. The market had certainly changed dramatically since our first transaction twelve years ago, but literally within weeks, Maruta helped us find our new home and an added bonus of a gorgeous bay view! Maruta is so much more than an outstanding professional who has guided us through the purchase of two condos, and one very successful sale over the years, however, we love to think of her as a great friend too.
Ms. Maruta Miluns was highly recommended by my dear friends. The initial meeting went extremely well; we established all the ground rules which included pricing, marketing, responsibilities, and review dates. It wasn't an easy sale. It required fortitude, cooperation, and showings at the whim of prospects, but Maruta was always there. I wish her great success and also wish to remind you that with Maruta in your organization you have a very professional and dependable member.
My mother had lived in her condo for upwards of 30 years, after so long a time and having reached the age of 92; she had become quite a hoarder. From the moment Maruta walked through the door, she showed great sensitivity for our situation. Moving under ordinary circumstances is stressful, but our circumstances were seemingly impossible. Maruta went above and beyond the call of duty, enabled our mother to maintain her dignity and sell her condo for a great price. We have already and will continue to recommend Maruta.
It is difficult to find words to describe my feelings about Maruta. How about 'EXCEPTIONAL'! In the seemingly endless period which resulted in a sale and closing, Maruta was like a mother hen! She and the buyer's agent worked like a real team, and did so with integrity and good old common sense. No matter what, I know that Maruta will represent her clients with integrity, charm, and professionalism.
Maruta did a fantastic job in selling our home on Tidy Island. It was a very stressful time for us and Maruta went out of her way to help us thru the process. She was extremely helpful in suggesting things we should do to make our home more saleable. She is the most knowledgeable real estate professional I have ever met. I thing I appreciated most about Maruta was her willingness to do anything to help us sell our home. She made this whole transaction very easy. I would recommend her to anyone.
Recently Maruta Miluns sailed us through the sale of our condominium at Perico Bay Club in Bradenton. We were so impressed with and appreciative of Maruta's professional, patient efficiency as she guided the process (despite a few unexpected bumps in the road!), all the while daily communicating with us since we were located up in Massachusetts. Maruta is a very valuable asset to your office and to Michael Saunders & Company. We will certainly recommend her to anyone needing a top-notch realtor.
About 6 weeks ago I came to Longboat with a very short timeframe (2 weeks) to find a condo. Maruta Miluns was phenomenal. She spent nearly every day showing me around the area and taking me to all the open houses. She listened to what I wanted and was honest and thoughtful. I felt confident with her that I’d find something I loved and everything would work out. It did! Part of it was luck/timing, but without Maruta’s knowledge and commitment, it most likely would not have been such a smooth process.
My wife and I were fortunate to find a home with the help of Maruta Miluns. Knowing Maruta as such a well-respected Realtor, our choice of who to deal with was easy. Her service and aid to us was outstanding. Arranging contacts with the closing lawyer, insurance providers, and assisting with inspections. She even helped find a handyman and a local painter. Buying a second home 1450 miles away has more than a few challenges. Maruta's skill, knowledge and help made it so much easier. Besides that she is a wonderful person.
