Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
We want to pass along our compliments and gratitude for the outstanding service we received from your agent Kathy Callahan! We connected with Kathy via a recommendation from trusted friends who purchased a condo with her assistance. We are so glad we did! We really didn't have an area in Sarasota county pinned down and Kathy graciously and patiently showed us properties from Bradenton to Venice. We conducted much of our search from our home in New York and she was wonderful about previewing neighborhoods and properties for us. Her knowledge about the market process was second only to the personalized service she provided throughout the buying process. We bought a modest condo, but we feel as though Kathy treated us the same way she would a luxury market buyer. I expect that some of the guests we will have visit will be interested in purchasing property here and we will recommend Kathy and Michael Saunders in a heartbeat. She is truly a gem and an outstanding representative. We also want to compliment the rest of the Michael Saunders team whom Kathy connected us with, including Jennifer Samano from MSC Title and Erin Fleeman from BKS Partners.

We found the experience with Rudy to be exceptional from start to finish. Rudy’s “no-pressure” approach suited us very well and we felt as if he had our best interest at heart during the entire process. Rudy quickly picked up on what we were looking for in a house which helped make the process smooth and efficient.Our home buying experience was complicated a bit as a result of the Covid-19 issue arising right after we signed a purchase contract on a house. Rudy was very patient and helped us through the process as we started and stopped a few times during the following month trying to decide if we wanted to proceed or not. Initially, after a couple of weeks we ended up canceling our contract however, Rudy stayed in touch with us and kept providing us with updates on our dream home and the market as we pondered the situation. Eventually, we re-engaged on the same property, signed an addendum to our original contract and proceeded through an efficient closing process. The result, we now live in a beautiful house located at 1508 Sandpiper Lane.Finally, we have several friends and neighbors that are considering a move to the Sarasota area. We have referred Rudy to these friends as we have the utmost confidence that he will do a great job for them - the same as he did for us!!

I had the pleasure of working with Wendy Egan to promote the Amope' electronic footfiles on HSN.; a very important test project for the manufacturer. Wendy was helpful, professional and went the extra mile testing product and preparing for the show. Wendy projected the confident, upscale, fashionable image we needed. She worked very well with HSN's staff and the manufacturer's sales and marketing team. We were delighted to have Wendy on our shows and I highly recommend her.

“It is rare to find media relations people like Wendy”"In my experience, it is rare to find media relations people like Wendy, who have an excellent grasp of both PR strategy and the topics we tended to write about. My group focuses on everything "money, investing and Wall Street" at Forbes and Wendy acted as a great strategic counsel, navigating the publicity landscape deftly.

I have never experienced anything like the incredible service I received by my listing agent Christine del Monte during this sale. Due to the pandemic, and being a Canadian, I was forced to leave U.S.A on March 8, 2020. This scenario of course was a shock for us all and much to my surprise I received an offer on my condo just three days later. That is when my agent Christine Del Monte stepped in and stepped up. I can honestly say that without the incredible dedication to service that she maintained during this incredibly uncertain time that I would never been able to do the final requested work on my condo in order for this unit to close ….and right on time. Daily, Christine met with the trades, to ensure that everything was done to complete the essential work that was needed to close the sale. After phone calls, meetings, footwork (on a broken foot no less) Christine managed to pull it off. Throughout the experience she managed to soothe my own worries. If you can visualize most every obstacle that takes place during a sale ..she navigated them all…..Christine rolled with every punch, organizing what was needed in order that my place meet compliance. She completed the job smiling…and all while juggling other business and a looming pandemic which was rapidly changing the climate of life every day for us all. Christine Del Monte has exceeded her role as a realtor. She is a dedicated professional and her positivity with others is a true gift. I feel confident that hiring her to represent you will be the right move… and I highly recommend her. Her warmth will welcome you to Sarasota..so much that you will want to stay. ---Erin

Marybeth represented my husband and me in the purchase of our waterfront condo in downtown Sarasota. Marybeth is very professional and is a pleasure to work with. She was always available for questions throughout the entire process and was involved in every step of the purchase, which made everything go smoothly. The pre-inspection was very helpful to us in making a quick decision in this competitive market. Marybeth was key to us buying the condo. I highly recommend her if you are considering purchasing or selling a property.
