Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
I am writing to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding service provided by Joanna Benante. She helped us find our dream home which was a two year process, followed by the sale of our existing home we had previously lived in for 22 years. During this whole process Joanna demonstrated exceptional professionalism, knowledge, responsiveness, and determination. We were not always the best stewards of our existing home. It ultimately took 50 showings to get it sold, yet throughout the process Joanna remained positive, and proactive. She never wavered in her commitment to us and shouldered the majority of the stress. We had moved on and were enjoying our new home and placed the sale of our previous home entirely in Joanna’s hands. We never doubted her expertise and were always impressed with her attention to detail and dedication to her profession. Not only did Joanna work with my husband and I, but she also helped my daughter and son-in-law find their starter home which went above and beyond what they were expecting to find. She helped them course correct and avoid mistakes along the way which was greatly appreciated. In conclusion, Joanna Benante is the best realtor in Sarasota and we are deeply grateful for all the ways in which she has helped our family.

We used Bernadette Caswell and couldn’t have been happier. She did a fabulous job. We were on for almost a year and she did things and bent over backwards to help us get the right buyer for our home. I would use her over and over again and would definitely recommend her to anyone who asked. You have a good one there.

I wanted to reach out and let you know my husband and I had a fantastic experience with Denise Mei and Nicole her daughter in law. They were wonderful with communication, efficient, personable and made our new ownership of a condo in Sarasota a dream come true. I would highly recommend them to anyone and we are appreciative of their hard work.

Just a note to acknowledge the wonderful job Megg did with the sales of our condo in Bradenton. The process from listing to closing was seamless. The condo is a secondary location with our primary being in Wisconsin. Megg's communication was always a priority and she kept us in the loop every step of the way. Thanks for all of the work that went into making the sale a success. We would definitely recommend Megg & Ralph and Michael Saunders & Company if anyone is looking to list/sell a property.

Cheryl Roberts helped me sell my mother's house in Sarasota after it became clear that dementia prevented her from continuing to live alone. I am from out of state, and Cheryl made the whole process much easier than I expected. She quickly found a buyer at a good price, gave me useful advice along the way and navigated the hurdles skillfully and calmly. I don't expect to buy or sell real estate in Florida in the future, but if that happens, I will turn to Cheryl.

We wanted to take a moment to share our heartfelt appreciation for one of your exceptional agents, Larry Cushing. As absentee homeowners, selling our home presented challenges that could have been incredibly stressful. Fortunately for us, we had Larry in our corner. From our very first conversation to the closing, he demonstrated an extraordinary level of professionalism, integrity, and compassion that exceeded every expectation we had. Larry didn't simply market and sell our home—he became our eyes, ears, and trusted advocate when we couldn't be there ourselves. Whether it was handling unexpected issues, checking on the property, coordinating countless details, or simply taking the time to reassure us, he was always there with a positive attitude and a willingness to help. He repeatedly went far beyond the responsibilities of a real estate agent, and we honestly don't know how we would have managed this process without him. In today's world, it is rare to meet someone whose work is guided not only by expertise but also by genuine kindness and an unwavering commitment to doing what's right. Larry possesses those qualities in abundance. His dedication gave us confidence during every step of the process and turned what could have been an overwhelming experience into one we will always remember with gratitude. Michael Saunders & Company should be extremely proud to have someone of Larry's caliber representing your organization. He embodies the very best of what clients hope to find in a real estate professional. The highest compliment we can offer is this: we began this journey with an outstanding Realtor, but we finished it with a cherished friend. We will always be thankful for everything Larry did for us and will enthusiastically recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional representation. Please extend our deepest thanks to Larry and know how much we appreciate the remarkable service he provided. He is truly one of a kind.

We want to say a huge thank you to Lorraine for all the work she put into the selling of our home in Hammock Preserve. Took a long time but we are in uncommon times and that together with highway noise worked against us. At the end of the day we would absolutely hire Lorraine again if we ever needed too. She never gave up. Ever! She helped us through the whole process with a smile and comforting words when we got frustrated. She actually went above and beyond more than once. You have a real treasure with her in your team.

I got Adam Cuffaro's name when I Google searched- Best Realtor In Bradenton, and I see why his name showed up! Adam not only showed us homes, he helped us understand the area, gave us names of utilities and services and really helped us get to know the Bradenton area better. As we were moving to FL from half a country away, it was nice to be able to always get a quick response to every call, text or email that I sent Adam. Adam also kept us posted on every step that was being done with the inspections and closing. We would highly recommend Adam to anyone looking a purchasing a home in the Bradenton area!

I wanted to drop a line to you to express our immense gratitude for the professional service we received from Laura Navratil and Tim Carnes. They went well above our expectations in helping us sell our property. Even though we lived outside of the United States we honestly felt they cared about us and this was not just a business transaction. They happily handled ever aspect of the sale including dealing with a number of service companies such as air conditioning. Any issue that came up they were there front and centre to help us. They walked us through every step of the process and we felt tremendous comfort in their advice and guidance. Laura and Tim made the selling process much easier and manageable. We really appreciated their attention to our property and can not thank them enough. Great job! Great service! Strongly recommend them for any real estate transaction.

I cannot say enough good things about working with Hannah and George. She is truly an exceptional human being. She listened to what we wanted and took us to several houses that met our expectations. Her service didn't stop after our contract was accepted, Hannah arranged our inspection and assisted through the closing processing. My husband and I are blown away by her service and her expert knowledge on real estate in general. Super, super terrific experience!
