Nora is beyond 5 stars. When a problem arose the day before closing she and her partner Klaus Lang went above and beyond to rectify the problem. This is a great team to work with to sell or buy a home.
EXCELLENT Nora is a consummate professional and an absolute joy to work with. As a builder of unique and high quality homes, I look for a Realtor with the knowledge and communication skills to successfully differentiate my homes. She recently listed and sold my home to a wonderful family -- and at the closing table we all had so much fun and lots of laughs. Thank you Nora for making our collective experience such a wonderful one!
Nora helped us manage a complicated and protracted sale of several adjoining properties on Siesta Key, known as Isle North. This process took place over two years as we built three new homes and sold two while under construction. Nora was available and responsive throughout what I can only describe at best as an arduous process secondary to ongoing disputes between us, our buyers and contractor My Green Buildings (MGB). Her calm demeanor, sage advice, integrity and competencies in both the art and science of real estate was exactly what we needed! Our positive experience with Nora led us to contract another sale with her, affectionately referred to as the French Lot also located on the Key. As we move forward in developing future properties, we will be sure to work with your company and specifically Nora again. She is an exceptional representative of your organizational values. Thank you!
Nora was our agent in selling our home and helping us in our search and the purchase of our new home. Nora understood what our goals were in selling our home and was fully supportive in the approach in our home sale which we planned and implemented with Nora's knowledge and understanding of the market. Nora helped to provide that same level of service and market understanding in helping us find and close on our new home. Should we make a move in the future Nora would be the first person we would call to start that process again.
Excelllent
We worked with Nora Johnson, Janet Carter, and Klaus Lang. They showed tremendous professionalism and kindness to us during the many real estate transactions that we have conducted in the last year. Special thanks go to Nora, who provided guidance and advice in a calm and reassuring manner, always balancing the need to have qualified buyers view the properties and yet have the properties well publicized. Nora was instrumental in getting us in to view the Coquille Street property at very short notice and early in the day. Her rapid response to us meant that we were able to get an offer accepted on the spot, pre-empting another buyer. We have complete confidence in your company and staff and would definitely come back to you for any future property transactions in Sarasota.
Nora is amazing, keeping track of a million and one details in order to make the sale go through. I used to think that realtors worked hard to make the sale but I never appreciated all the follow-through they need to do in order to get to closing. Nora did it all, and always with a smile in her voice!
First class professional. A delight to work with.
It has been a real pleasure to work with you on the successful sale of this condo. You were able to achieve a sales price well in excess of my expectations and handled all details most satisfactorily. Thanks so much!
Pete & I have bought and sold several houses with Nora and each experience was excellent. She listens well and is able to translate your needs into a property you will love and can afford. She is very familiar with the area, with listed houses and some that are not even on the market yet. We have also recommended Nora to many of our friends who have bought property and were thrilled with her assistance. She is articulate, thorough and has great patience to take you to the necessary amount of properties before you find what you need. We highly recommend her for your real estate needs.
Nora is the professional you would want on your side. She’s a diligent worker with great knowledge of the Sarasota community and a dedicated worker towards your wants and needs! I always recommend Nora when friends want someone for their real estate needs!
Nora is a great & fine lady, of many qualities .
Nora was always at our home for showings to enthusiastically and truthfully answer questions from a potential buyer. She negotiated the highest possible selling price in a timely manner. Nora did an exceptional job negotiating the purchase price of our new home. She was able to coordinate closing dates to insure a smooth relocation.
Thank you team for making this happen. You are a professional complement to your industry.
We were impressed with Nora's 'out of the box' approach to marketing our property. She exudes an understated, self deprecating confidence and had a host of interesting ideas.
I wanted to tell you that in all our real estate experiences, working with you was the best. You are extremely efficient, return calls immediately, amongst so many other strengths.
We were first exposed to Michael Saunders & Company on the sale of our property on N. Manasota Key. We found Terri very professional and PATIENT with a difficult buyer. We ended up #18 on your list of sold properties for 2018. We appreciated Terri's help in making it happen. We bought the lot in The Oaks on November 16, 2018. Unfortunately, we found The Oaks building process to be overly complex and not time-driven. We made the decision to put the lot back on the market and seek other housing. We immediately turned to Nora Johnson and her partner Klaus Lang given they had sold the property, had the lot next to it listed and sold the lot next to that lot. They were very familiar with the property. They represented me flawlessly and I was impressed with Klaus Lang's help seeking out new properties for us to consider. He was a tireless worker. Janet Carter, as the assistant to their team, was fantastic. Too often an unsung, underappreciated job, which becomes the glue that holds it all together. We now are having a home built by Taylor Morrison, in their new development, Legacy Estates, in Palmer Ranch off Honoree. We hope to be in on or before June of 2020.
Working with Nora Johnson was an absolute pleasure. From start to finish Nora was personable, professional, and very efficient. She made the process of selling our existing home and purchasing a new home seamless. Nora is an invaluable resource. She has a wealth of knowledge in regards to perspective real-estate in Sarasota , as well as it's government, education systems, community, arts and culture. After hearing our specific needs, Nora was able to quickly matches with our dream home. Thank you Nora. I would highly recommend Nora to anyone looking for a home.
If you’re focusing on the Sarasota community for your real estate needs you want Nora on your side! You will not be dissapointed.
If you want to hear what needs to be said and not what you want to hear....work with Nora!
She is the best in every sense!
The Nora and Klaus team was terrific. They were professional in every way. I valued their opinion on pricing and why It should be at that price. They also used their network of in house and outside contacts to have numerous parties explore my home. Ending with multiple offers and ultimately the sale all within a matter of days. I am a very satisfied client.
To say Nora's help and thoroughness were splendid is an understatement. She showed us the market thoroughly and found this newly renovated unit on our third visit from Washington, DC. She is a lovely person, well-organized, and a great listener. We love our new home and will always be grateful to Nora for her care of us.
We recently sold our condo at Bayport Beach and Tennis Club on Longboat Key. We have dealt with a number of real estate agents over the past years. Nora would rate at the top of the list. She was professional and thorough and her winning personality made it a pleasure to work with her. She sold our condo within the first week it was on the market. We would recommend Nora and your company without hesitation.
Nora is wonderfully knowledgeable and passionate about real estate. It is a pleasure to spend time with her. She makes the process of finding "just the right property" creative and inspiring. She is sophisticated, tirelessly energetic and patient. I couldn't recommend her more strongly.
Nora listed and sold two homes for us and did an excellent job. She was always available, extremely professional and was a pleasure to deal with. Her marketing was creative and included a feature piece in Style Magazine as well as a television promotion. I would highly recommend Nora if you are buying or selling a home. She is a top professional. Lynn Morris
Both Linda and I very much appreciate our relationship with you. I’m certainly not the easiest person in the world to get along with but we both feel very comfortable with you and thank you for bearing with us.
Nora listens well. She was extremely helpful in selling our home and now has listen to what we are looking for selectively showing us the type of houses that meet our criteria. Not wasting our time with great follow up on questions. I would highly recommend her and her team,
Working with Nora Johnson is always a pleasure. She is always well prepared for our meetings and excursions and has a knack for matching my taste and interests to the available inventory. She always uses our time most effectively by not showing me houses that would not be a good fit for my needs and at the same time I always know that she shows me all of the best opportunities currently on the market or "nearly" on the market.
Nora Johnson is an extremely professional realtor. She listens to what you are looking for and works to find you what you need. As a client, I felt she was truly trying to help us buy a home that we would be happy with and her attention does not end with the sale. Nora makes one feel comfortable reaching out to her after the fact which was truly welcomed as a non-Floridian who needed some guidance. I would highly recommend Nora to anyone looking for a home.
In December 2015, we used Nora to find and buy a Condo in Sarasota FL. We found Nora to be professional, unbiased and knowledgeable. I felt she was in tune with what we were looking for. She always responded in a timely fashion to our many requests and in my opinion went above and beyond what was required. I would recommend Nora without hesitation.
We wanted to express our pleasure in working with Nora Johnson and Klaus Lang for the sale of our unit in The Mark. They were extremely communicative, professional, and responsive during the entire process of our listing. We felt that they took every precaution with showings to ensure our unit stayed safe and clean during this pandemic. You always wonder how that will go and we didn’t see any evidence of protocol being broken. We can’t thank them enough for marketing our unit effectively so that we could close in a timely manner and at a price we were happy with. We wouldn’t hesitate to use their services and expertise again!
This is just a test for a reported issue submitting testimonials.
We love to work & spend time with Nora! She is the best!
Nora is a delight to work with and is very knowledgeable of the area and its varied real estate possibilities. She has shown us some excellent prospects, showing that she is an excellent listener and able to reflect our requirements in the properties she has shown us.
The service we have had from Michael Saunders & Company has been first class. Although the house took a long time to sell, Nora Johnson and Klaus Lang were always positive. I don’t know how many showings they did as we were in the UK but they were always confident that they would find a buyer. It’s no surprise that they are the top team. I should also mention Janet Carter who has been unfailingly supportive and so responsive.
Whether you are buying your first house or your tenth, so much about purchasing a home is about your personal expectations, dreams, and what you really want as a way of life--finding a broker who will listen to you and understand your needs and priorities is rare, but Nora Johnson fits that bill. This is a broker who is willing to work hard finding what is right for you...not just necessarily what happens to be readily available. She has a keen understand of the Sarasota market and whether you are a newcomer or an old-timer, I believe you will benefit from her thoughts and her good counsel...Nora is truly a pro!
Nora was an amazing partner as we sought to transition to Sarasota. She knows the market, and makes an extra effort to know her clients and what they are looking for. Her easy going pleasant style is a real benefit when you are going through the house hunting process. I have recommended Nora to friends looking for a wide range if properties, and they have all been pleased. She is excellent, and it was a pleasure to work with her!
