Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
Debbie was very effective at promoting and selling our Stoneybrook home in the summer of 2023. She presented our property with the professional quality and attention to detail it deserved and quickly found the perfect buyers. This was our only time selling a Florida property and so we relied on Debbie’s knowledge, guidance and skill during the process. She performed all these aspects admirably. In addition, Debbie utilized the depth of the Michael Saunders organization to steer us through all aspects of the transaction including legal, financial, and taxation issues. In summary, the entire process was a huge success and we would strongly recommend Debbie’s services to others . Thanks Debbie!

I chose Nancy Moore to list my Longboat Key condo. Her professionalism and knowledge of the market was invaluable. From her detailed market analysis to helping stage my condo, Nancy went above and beyond. She provided regular updates and responded promptly to my questions. Her insight was invaluable when negotiating contract terms and ultimately closing the sale. I’ve bought and sold many properties over the years and I highly recommend Nancy.

Debbie was a joy to deal with. She showed us a number of condos that met our criteria and provided vital information that was critical to our decision making. Genuinely, we do not believe we would be in our home without her help and local knowledge. It certainly doesn't hurt that she is a member of the club. We would not hesitate to utilize her services again. Larry & Virginia Pokora

Debbie did a terrific job marketing and selling my condo. If I buy or sell in Sarasota she will be the first I call.

If your looking for a realtor, my chose would be Nancy Moore from Michael Saunders & Company Real Estate. She recently sold my villa for list price within a short period of time in a very tough market. So, if your are looking to sell or buy, I would certainly recommend Nancy Moore.

I want to express my pleasure and gratitude in working with JoDene Moneuse on the sale of my property. JoDene was recommended to me by a friend who had recently worked with her and bragged about how absolutely wonderful she was in selling her property. As I desired a quick sale, I wanted to make sure I chose a realtor who was professional, understood the market and would advise me on any changes I needed to make to ensure a quick sale at a good price. I chose JoDene after interviewing two other agents and selected her based on her quick assessment (with no holds barred) on what improvements I needed to make to get the best price. One realtor didn't think any improvements were necessary while another suggested more costly improvements. JoDene was right in the middle, but her confidence and immediate feedback on how to effectively market the property sold me on her. I was not disappointed. After following her recommendationsto the letter (down to the color of shower curtain) I was rewarded with 4 offers in the first week! She carefully walked me though the pros and cons of each offer before I chose a buyer. Although the financing fell through on that offer, she was able to go back to those who were previously interested and quickly came back with another great offer. At this point she had earned my complete trust so I felt confident as she steered me through the negotiations to get the exact price I wanted. JoDene (I call her Superstar (2)) understands the market and knows how to sell real estate! On top of that, she's a kind person. I look forward to working with her again in the future.

I first met Denise when I was about 7 years old, my family and I lived in the same neighborhood as her and her husband. My family and I would often go to their house to swim in their pool and hangout. I was too young to understand the concept of hospitality, but looking back and after reconnecting with Denise now, I can see that not only has she not changed, but her love for her profession and others has only grown. When I started looking for a place of my own, at first I was looking to rent. After God's perfect timing kicked in, my mom suggested that I should contact Denise because she had seen that she was a realtor and somebody we could both trust. Denise walked me through the process and was very patient with me through it all (being a first time homebuyer). That summer, I was going through a very difficult time and the time I got to spend with Denise out looking for houses erased all of that for a little bit. After some doubt had gotten in my head, she even helped and reassured me I was making a good decision. Fast forward to today, I am filled with hope, peace, gratitude, and am beginning to love again. I am thankful that God has sent Denise to help me on my homebuying journey. She is filled with passion, joy, and tenacity. There is no one better to help you find a home.

I’m writing to inform you of my recent experience with Michael Saunders & Company. Although I have been a homeowner before, I had not used a Realtor or actively searched for a house to purchase. I can’t imagine going through my recent home-buying journey with anyone other than the Alliano-Fox team. The difficulties that arose, and any questions or anxieties I experienced were quickly and considerately addressed. Early on I knew that I was in good hands with these two dynamic women. Susan and Sally were consummate professionals. It wasn’t just their knowledge that stood out, it was also their consistency. They always made time for conversations and inquiries, compassionately understanding any doubts or reservations and attending to details I couldn’t have anticipated or handled on my own. There are many daunting and confusing aspects of such a monumental transaction and I am eternally grateful for their advocacy and guidance. In the future, should I look to purchase another home, or recommend a Realtor to someone who is, the Alliano-Fox team will be the only choice. I commend Michael Saunders & Company for their stellar representation of Susan and Sally.

What do you do when you are selling your home at one of the worst times in Florida history? You go with the best agent and that agent is Debi Benson. From the first time we interviewed her (and several others who didn't make the grade) to the day we closed on our sale, Debi was there for us whenever we needed her. Her ideas are always on point, she tells you the pros and cons of anything and lets you make up your own mind, if you need her to be at the house, she is at the house, if she doesn't know an answer, she will find out and not try to BS you. She knows the area well, she knows the local and national trends. If she will be away, she will let you know how to reach her or give you someone who will be there if needed. So, all the smarts and a really, really nice person on top of that.

Robert Brooker is a one of a kind person. He is professional, gracious, and very giving of his time. My experience with Robert was excellent, as he went above and beyond to make the sale of my property happen. My mom and I are truly grateful to have had Robert in our "court" during a time in our lives that was a bit tumultuous. I would like to give him 10 stars if I could, but I guess 5 will have to do!! Again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!
