Elizabeth Van Riper, Realtor®

Elizabeth is everything you could possibly want in a Realtor. She is very, very smart and has a range of knowledge that would qualify her as an expert botanist and landscaper, an expert in housing history and the history of Sarasota, very well versed in fine and performing arts, very knowledgeable about finances and financing, and incredibly well informed about the residential housing market in Sarasota. In addition to that she is an excellent listener and totally engaged with her clients. She is highly organized, efficient and completely committed to understanding and providing what her clients want. On top of it all she is straightforward, honest, and direct. We would recommend Elizabeth most highly and without the slightest reservation. Maybe we need to modify what we said when we said Elizabeth is everything you could possibly want in a realtor. She is everything you could possibly want...and more! 

Jan and I met Elizabeth initially through a buyer-friend. When deciding to sell our home we wanted Elizabeth to be our agent without question! Despite owning the home under three years; Elizabeth assumed a tough re-sale role, because it was ‘above-pricing’ for the neighborhood. Nevertheless, Elizabeth, was spectacular and gifted with the patience of a saint. My wife and I, wholeheartedly recommend Elizabeth and the Michael Saunders Realty team! This was not our first home sale and it was a relief to know Elizabeth knew her business and her market. She came to the initial meeting and all-others afterwards with valued information and home points. She definitely showed-off her expertise in real estate, always with in a friendly and professional manner. We’ll miss that home, but Elizabeth’s friendship more! Jan and Roger Treese.

Looking for a highly qualified real estate agent who will serve you well? I wish to testify about our Realtor, Elizabeth Van Riper, who helped my wife and I learn about homes and communities in the Bradenton-Sarasota area. Elizabeth is the consummate professional. She truly cares about her clients and servicing their needs. Plus, she is fun to be with and became our good friend. Elizabeth fully supported our decisions and continued to put her considerable resources and a substantial amount of personal time into making our dream a reality. Elizabeth guided us through the occasionally incomprehensible path of mortgage loans, government requirements, and closing costs.
Perhaps, you just found the very person you are looking for.
