Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
Debbie is a true professional and is incredibly knowledgeable about the pluses and minuses of the various styles and locations of Stonybrook properties. She was referred to us by a friend and we then traveled from Buffalo to Sarasota and in one day met Debbie and looked at numerous properties and she educated us on all aspects of each. At the end of the day we put in an offer (accepted) on the perfect property for us and Debbie has been available thru closing .. and beyond. Being new to the Sarasota area her network and friendship has been invaluable.

I couldn’t ask for a better, more knowledgeable, and prepared realtor than Lindy! She made everything happen efficiently and seamlessly, and my home sold faster than I ever dreamed it would. I would personally recommend her to anyone buying or selling.

We are based in the UK and needed a to sell an elderly relative's Sarasota home. Josie has proved herself to be more than 'just a Realtor'. Josie has an amazing depth and breadth of knowledge of Real Estate in Sarasota and her support and fantastic contacts have helped us immensely when dealing with a complicated situation. Her communication is excellent, which has been vital when dealing with the international aspect of our situation, and her response times to our enquiries have been very quick. It is obvious that Josie really cares about her clients and what is right for them, she goes 'above and beyond' in her role. I would not hesitate to recommend Josie to anyone selling or buying a house in the Sarasota area.

I first met David McHugh from the Michael Saunders Company at an open house that he was representing for a client. We informed David that we were not buyers, just looking and not ready to purchase at this time. As it turned out, we talked to David at length regarding the market, pricing inventory, etc. Being the true professional, he was willing to talk to us at length knowing that we were not buyers at that time. About 1 year later, when it was time to sell our house and select a real estate sales company to represent our and market our house, I recalled my meeting with David McHugh with the Michael Saunders Company a year earlier. I contacted David McHugh to ask if he would be interested with representing our house for sale. After we talked on the phone, he recalled our meeting from the prior year. He agreed to view our house and a discuss a marketing strategy for the home sale. Based on David’s presentation and proposal, we selected the Michael Saunders Company to represent the sale of our house in Lakewood Ranch. The logistics and sale of the property would present a unique challenge to David and the Michael Saunders company, as my wife and I would be traveling throughout the entire time the house was listed for sale. At times, we had very limited cell / WiFi service. Somehow, David made it work. David was the consummate professional throughout the entire sales process, from the listing to marketing, conducting open house and follow-up communications. This professionalism continued through purchase and sales phase to the final purchase and turnover of the property. We are highly appreciative of the effort that David McHugh and the Michael Saunders Company put into the successful marketing and sale of our house in Lakewood Ranch. We also give our strongest personal recommendation to home owners / buyers to utilize the professional services of the Michael Saunders Real Estate Company Respectfully, Jim FitzGerald

It was great working with Annette. She took care of us throughout the entire home buying process and made it easy for us to find the perfect home. She never just tried to sell us a home. She made sure we didn’t settle, and it felt like she knew what we wanted before we did.

I’m truly grateful my significant other and I chose Annette as our realtor. Although the home buying process was more difficult than expected due to the current state of the market, Annette helped us navigate this throughout the entire process. She was always available, consistent, informative, and I think most importantly, realistic and had our best interests at heart with every showing and through multiple offers. We’ve been in our home for a little under 3 months now and couldn’t be happier. 10/10 recommend Berkshire and Annette if you’re in need of a realtor. Thanks Annette!

Katiti was always prompt, courteous and professional with us (as sellers) and with prospective buyers and their agents. She brought in a stager that made small but impactful recommendations for helping us highlight our home's best features and used a professional photographer to make our home shine online. She stayed in constant contact with us with weekly phone calls, email updates and immediate feedback after each showing. I highly recommend her to anyone serious about selling their home.

Annette made our entire home buying process enjoyable. Her patience, diligence, knowledge and compassion got us our beautiful new home. Annette listen to us, even at times my husband and I were split on what we wanted. She was able to but it togeter to get us exactly what we were looking for with such ease. She explained everything on our level so we were able to understand. There were no uncertainties in the end. Best buying experience.

We had the pleasure of working with Lindy for the second time, this time selling our home. She is a true professional. She kept us informed every step of the way, was very responsible to our calls, and thoroughly answered all of our questions. We will continue to recommend her to anyone we know buying or selling our home. Thank you so much, Lindy!

Integrity. If we had to choose a single word to describe Chris, that would be it. But he is so much more. We have bought and sold 3 homes with Chris. His knowledge of the market make him invaluable. He worked extremely hard for us; helping us to find the perfect home, selling our former home and making sure all deals went smoothly. Trustworthiness, honesty, and an understanding of the ever changing real estate market, really sets Chris and the Van Vliett team apart from all others.
