Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
I wanted to let you know that Ethel Lovelace was instrumental in this purchase from the day of the initial showing all the way to closing. I was in the Chicago area after I first saw the property and after my initial bid, Ethel was always there by phone or email to help with the final agreement, answer my questions, help with the logistics of the inspections and repairs, and help with the entire purchase process. Harvey even waited at the condo so the cable company could do their installation while I was at closing. I was on a limited time schedule and this saved me from rescheduling and maybe missing my flight home. There are some unfinished prepaid repairs that the seller couldn’t get completed before closing but I have every bit of confidence that Ethel will stay on top of it and follow through with the contractor. After my experience with Ethel, I will definitely recommend your real estate company to any of my family or friends who would like to join my wife and me in beautiful Siesta Key.

We worked with Harvey and Ethel to purchase a condo in La Siesta this past month, but our relationship with them began almost 2 years ago. We stopped into an open house that Ethel was hosting in Sept. 2017 and met her then. She was kind, positive, and super helpful in showing us some properties during our visit that year. Well, we were not financially prepared to purchase at that time and then a year past. Last Sept., we were visiting Siesta Key again (because we had fallen in love with the place the prior year) and we contact Harvey and Ethel to look at a few more places. Harvey very graciously showed us some more properties and gave us more to think about in regards to a future purchase. Then this summer we found the “perfect” place for us in La Siesta and I contacted Ethel. She did all of the leg work to get us information on the unit, get us comps, provide us with all the information and answer ALL of our questions. I can’t even tell you how many phone calls and texts we had with her as she continued to work on our behalf. and did I mention we live in Alaska and she dealt with the 4 hour time difference seamlessly! She was there for an initial walkthrough with pictures, to the inspection, all the way down to the final walkthrough and closing. She was there every step of the way. It was not quick, nor painless with some of the speed bumps we encountered along the way, but she stuck with us! She was our eyes and ears on the ground while we were doing everything from AK. I just can’t tell you how much I appreciate everything they did for us. I feel like they are part of our family (or maybe we are part of theirs!) They worked tirelessly for us.

Ethel is communicative and helpful. She is always pleasant and goes the extra mile to get things done. She tells us when she thinks something should change (price, furniture, etc.) and listens to our concerns. We have loved working with her.

Ethel was very patient and perceptive to our needs, helping us to find the property we desired. She was knowledgeable about the area, trends, prices, builders and much more.

I've worked with Ethel and Harvey on several matters, from contract through closing. I can honestly say that they go "above and beyond" in taking care of their clients. They are knowledgeable, responsive and a real pleasure to work with.

We and our extended family have always had an excellent experience working with Ethel. We wouldn't consider using any other realtor.

Ethel and Harvey, thank you for all your hard work and perseverance in seeing this through to the closing. We really appreciate you giving it your all! You did a superb job working with the Buyers and handling every detail so that all went very smoothly. It was a real pleasure to work with you both!

I have purchased, built, sold, and rented out multiple properties (homes, condos) in Ohio, Vermont, and Massachusetts, including a water front condo in Boston with all of its complications. I have also dealt with commercial property realtors in business dealings. I therefore have dealt with multiple real estate people over a long period of time. Ethel is, without a doubt, the best realtor I have done business with. She is thorough, concerned to make the deal work for everyone. She understands and is on top of all aspects of the transaction. She communicates very well and insures that the facts are presented correctly and clearly. We are now close to the 'closing' and she is following through on everything. You can always reach Ethel. She returns phone calls and emails promptly. And she is pleasant and professional all the while. It's a pleasure working with her, and Harvey too. If I ever have other real estate needs in the area, I will contact Ethel. If I hear from others that they are looking for a real estate person to help them on selling or buying a property, I'll give them Ethel's contact information. Sincerely, Pat
