Richard Hearn, Realtor®, CIPS, GRI

To whom it many concern, Mr. Richard Hearn was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. As a new comer to the area, I found Mr. Hearn knowledgeable of the LWR area and was always ready to show me additional homes as I learned and explored the area. He stuck with me until I finally found a home within my budget and meeting my needs. I would highly recommend Mr. Hearn to anyone in the market for a home in LWR and I wish him the very best. Sincerely, Mike Hanes

Richard is an integral person, he is very driven, hard working & a true gentleman .. Simply put, he made our deal happen. His word is his bond and heart is in it! We appreciate Richard beyond what words can express. Thank you!

Besides being eloquently British, Richard is wonderful resource for finding the right home. He was available almost 24/7 for questions and had his team working hard to help us make the right decisions. He seems to have many, many contacts in the Sarasota area and is a wonderful resource to have.

We started working with Richard in February 2020. We were moving from Massachusetts to Sarasota. Richard answered every question we had no matter how big or small. If he didn't know an answer he found out and got right back to us. He drove us around for days while we were looking for a home. He familiarized us with the Sarasota area. Richard was very professional, knowledgeable, and thorough. We would highly recommended him to anyone looking for a real estate agent.

Richard did a terrific job listing our home and guiding us through the entire process from initial pricing to closing. His expertise and professionalism were instrumental in achieving a timely sale and a smooth transaction for everyone involved. We highly recommend Richard Hearn of Michael Saunders & Company. You won't be disappointed!

Richard is the quintessential professional regarding real estate sales in the Florida area. We have both purchased and sold a home with his professional assistance. He goes above and beyond to make sure everything goes smoothly. When we last sold our home, we were in NC and Richard handled everything. It was all taken care of with little assistance needed from us. Thank you Richard.

Richard Hearn recently represented my wife and I in a purchase of a Sarasota home and found it to be a painless and most enjoyable experience. Richard is a true professional in every way and efficiently managed the entire process from the first showing to the closing paperwork. He excels in making the entire process simple and straightforward and is a true gentleman. We would strongly recommend Richard to anyone searching for a home in the Sarasota area. Richard definitely earns five stars with us!

Richard was fantastic, he was honest and helpful. We absolutely loved our new home!

Richard was a pleasure to work with. He was very thorough and his communication was excellent. He great suggestions for staging and clearly had my best interests at heart.

Richards is a good friend and an excellent Realtor. He helped us sell a home in Sarasota in the past and recently he assisted in finding us a condo in Lakewood Ranch. Navigating the current market is not an easy task but we found a place and closed quickly. Richard will always be our go-to Realtor! He is professional, caring and he goes the extra mile for his clients.

Selling a home is often fraught with trepidation over the nightmare of prolonged market indifference coupled with an aloof marketing professional. This could not be further from the from the truth in our recent home sale experience we had with Michael Saunders' Richard Hearn. From the initial listing moment through the closing, Richard was fastidious in advising us about sales preparation, arranging showings, sorting offers, negotiations, and the closing process. No one could be more professional, courteous, candid or honest than Richard. We thoroughly enjoyed our association with him and thank him for the successful and timely sale of our home. Richard genuinely cares and we are proud to have him as a friend.

We met Richard, who had worked with friends, in 2015 when we first visited Florida. He very patiently showed us all around Sarasota, focusing on what we had indicated we wanted...but when we bought it was a property sold by the owner through private auction. However, in 2020 when we decided to buy another apartment listed in our building we called Richard. He is thoroughly professional, always pleasant, the person you trust and want to do business with, even when you are the buyer and he represents the seller.

My wife and I engaged in an 8-month search that included consideration of everything from Naples to Sarasota and we were assisted by other agents in those markets as well.  None went out of their way to assist us more continuously or effectively than Richard.  I particularly appreciate how Richard engaged us in numerous conversations trying to ensure that the properties he was presenting were ‘right on target’ for our stated goals.  He was scrupulously objective in his observations and advice and became a trusted consultant in our search.  As we were out-of-town buyers he repeatedly went out of his way to offer local help and made several trips to our intended purchase in order to observe or confirm particular items about which we had questions.  He quickly arranged for a home inspection to be accomplished and we closed in 30 days.  We simply had an excellent experience – he was professional, friendly and skillful in everything he did for us.As Richard lives in the Founders Club we are particularly looking forward to counting him and his wife as friends in the future.

Richard did a great job selling our house. His help and guidance were very much appreciated. He was thorough, professional, and great to work with. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for an agent.

Richard Hearn has been outstanding in selling my home and not Short of spectacular! He had made the selling process seamless and went beyond the call of duty in making me extremely satisfied. I have purchased and sold many homes in my lifetime and have dealt with many realtors but never to the professionalism like Richard. I highly recommend Richard whether buying or selling your home.
