Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
I would like to take this opportunity to let you know how completely satisfied I am with the services provided by your Real Estate Company, in general, and Ms. Debra Pitell, in particular. I have bought and sold many homes over the years, and I cannot ever remember dealing with a more competent, courteous, and professional broker. In addition, this property required some special consideration and care, and Debra was more than up to the task… She was energetic, knew the region exceptionally well, and always respected my desire to minimum contact with my mother and allow me to work through the details. But in your business, results are what matters. And that is where Debra really came through. The price she got for my mother’s property was exactly DOUBLE what the other unsolicited broker had told my mother the property was worth. I cannot thank you enough for your professional service, and I would gladly recommend your firm to anyone who is seeking an outstanding real estate broker in the Sarasota region.

My husband and I were just throwing around the idea of moving over the last 2 years. We didn't really do anything about it until our old neighbor asked if we were still interested because a unit was coming up for sale where they live. They referred us to Debra Pitell-Hauge and that's when all the action began. Debra showed us 2 units for sale. We loved one and put in an offer.....and the rest is history. Two weeks later we are moving into our new house because of Debra's hard work and attention to detail, her willingness to make the deal happen. Even the small glitches were overcome easily under Debra's watchful eye. We want to thank Debra for all her hard work, her dedicated professionalism and her conscientious attention to detail. We had considered two other Real Estate Agents but like the 'easy to talk to' style of how Debra handles business. We especially like her 'Let's get it done' attitude. We wish her well in her career to which she is well suited. She walks the talk in her job daily!

We weren’t seriously looking for a house until we were introduced to Debra at a viewing at the Esplanade of Siesta Key. We saw two homes, really liked one, and a day later asked Debra to put in an offer on one of them. A day later, the deal was done and now two weeks later, we own it. This was an excellent process for my wife and I, it was so smooth that we asked Debra to take on the job of selling our current condo in The Landings. She is a very professional Realtor, the process was smooth and as easy as anything that happened so quickly could be. She is an asset to your company. We have bought and sold a few times in Toronto and Sarasota, I have never written this email before on any of our previous experiences!

It is our pleasure to tell you how pleased Doug and I were once again to have Debra Pitell-Hauge as our Realtor during the purchase of our new condominium. We previously purchased our first condo on Longboat Key with the help of Debra. We were so pleased with her professionalism and understanding of what we were looking for in choosing our future residence, we new we wanted to contact her again with our latest purchase. Her attention to detail, as well as her knowledge and expertise of the current market, assisted us in understanding what people in this area are looking for in a home. We are now in the process of remodeling our first unit and planning on having her list that once it is completed. She went above and beyond, and we would certainly recommend her services to anyone that is interested in buying or selling a home.nWe hope this letter gives you an idea of our views of what an exemplary Realtor Debra is. In summation, we are very happy with the excellent services she provided and look forward to possible future endeavors.

Just a note to say how pleased we are with Debra Pitell-Hauge and Kandy Donnelly, whom we got to know quite well in these past few months. Our house was sold in 5 days! Our condo was sold in less than a month! We required both sales in order to buy our new residence and were in quite a time crunch. Thanks to these two professionals, we are now in our new villa enjoying the good life.

Debra is the ultimate professional; she truly listened to our wants and needs and only made decisions in our best interest. Debra was always available, and treated us as if we were her only clients. Debra worked around our schedule, plus always returned our emails, calls, and texts extremely quickly. We needed someone we could trust to deliver what we wanted. Debra went above and beyond to make our needs a reality, including hand-delivering the offer and making difficult negotiations to serve our specific needs. We were looking for our dream home, but we also found a friend and an advocate for the rest of our lives.

I want to thank Michael Saunders & Company for the wonderful service I received recently on buying a home in Sarasota. My agent was Debra Hauge and she was wonderful. This was my first experience with buying a home on my own. She was with me every step of the process and made everything happen in a timely and smooth manner. She is a caring and hardworking individual who made me feel like I was her only client. Debra is very dedicated and passionate about her work. I could not have asked for a better experience.

We were impressed with Debra from our initial meeting. Her organized preparation for our meetings, the selections of properties for viewing, and her communication skills were outstanding. Most of all, her professionalism was second to none. She proved to be extremely knowledgeable in the current real estate market on Longboat Key and the Sararsota area. With her negotiation abilities, our offer was accepted. The entire experience proved to be positive.
