We were extremely pleased with Barbara's services in identifying and purchasing this condo. Barbara was exceptional in the professional way in which she did her job. She was recommended to us by a friend, Mark Spiegel, who had purchased a condo in Sarasota in 2018. I first contacted Barabra in late 2020 and talked with her about the Sarasota real estate market and our interest in purchasing a condo there. We came down to Sarasota in early March after we had been vaccinated and spent some time with Barbara looking at different properties. Based on our earlier discussions with her, she made very good choices of the properties that we looked at. The one that we wound up buying just came on the market while we were in Sarasota, and Barbara called me the night before to make a change in the following day's schedule to see this condo. This condo fit our needs perfectly, and we made an offer the next day that was accepted. We will certainly recommend Barbara to any of our friends that might be considering purchases in the Sarasota area.
Barbara totally restored my faith in realtors. Being in the construction/design industry, I have dealt with a lot of realtors over the years. Many have been great, but I have seen more than my share of realtors that I felt did not enhance the experience and often had little knowledge of the product or best approach to the process. Barbara handled every bit of our relationship and her approach to the task with acumen, experience, care, empathy, and, best of all seemed to literally take care of all aspects of the process. I could not have had a better experience and feel she was invaluable to our final outcome.
I am certain you have heard this before,but my experience with Barbara May in the search, negotiation, close and follow-up has been beyond compare. And I have bought quite a few pieces of real estate. Barbara knows the business, knows the local real estate market, knows how to work with both the buyer and the seller and understands the concept of great customer service. It speaks volumes when after the transaction is all done you consider Barbara not only as an advisor but as a friend. Mark Spiegel
