Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
Michael, My husband and I want to thank you and especially Diana Kryzsack for her wonderful service and attention to detail. She yielded more than we expected for our condo and also found our new home. We love her!

We put it on the market in October, 2014, it was under agreement by mid-December and closed in January, 2015. Between the listing and the agreement, Maruta hosted at least a half-dozen open houses. She presented the home at its best, on web sites, in helping us prepare for the showing, in her gracious handling of other realtors and prospects, in following up when she saw the interest, and especially in knowing how to move an interested party to close the sale. It’s true that Michael Saunders provides impressive resources behind the sale of a house, but it’s the skill of the agent that puts them together, persuades the seller of their value, and uses them effectively. Maruta is exceptional. She did a wonderful job, and we were lucky to have her representing us.

This was not our first experience with Diane. As in the past, she was exceptionally helpful with the information she provided so that we could make an informed decision. Diane gave us all the listings and her personal opinion that based on our specific wants, this was the place for us. She met with the builders we are considering and offered her comments in an unbiased, but honest manner. We look forward to dealing with her again as we continue on with our home building and home selling process.

We attended an open house with Sandra Maslen on October 4, 2015. Sandra was very informative, professional and gracious in her presentation of the property. She made us feel welcome and answered our questions that we had regarding the community.

Veronika is a professional, courteous, and knowledgeable real estate agent in the Sarasota area. She is efficient, optimistic, and a caring person. As out of town clients, we found her to be very helpful and she guided us throughout the whole buying process of our condo on Siesta Key. Veronika was ready and able to address all issues. She is a good negotiator and represented our needs. We are pleased with the experience and are happy to have had Veronika as our agent.

Our Siesta Key home was not an easy sale. It was an older home, 2 bedroom, with a separate guest cottage; so the universe of potential buyers was relatively small. Unlike most realtors with whom we have dealt, Jerry & Sandy took our listing and then actively and fervently marketed our home. They explored and acted on every possibility and opportunity. They were creative, persistent, and professional; and they got it sold and for a great price. We were so pleased with Jerry and Sandy's stellar performance, not to mention the they are two of the nicest people you'll ever meet, that we invited them to find us a new home, which they did. We got a great deal on our new home and love it. Needless to say, we have the highest admiration and affection for Jerry and Sandy Strom, the Strom Team at Michael Saunders & Company, and we recommend them without reservation. Michael & Renita

I worked with Tony close to a year before actually moving to Sarasota. Once we were here, it was a great experience. He was very knowledgeable and interested in the type of housing we were looking for. I always felt I could ask him questions and would receive an honest answer regarding the property. When we found the unit, the closing process was handled without any problems and everything went very smoothly. It was a sheer joy working with him.

The Collier Group goes above and beyond expectations. They’re more than just Realtors - they’re advisors that help you make the right decisions every step of the way. Their energy, enthusiasm and good humor meant that we had fun every step of the way. Janis, Ron and Mary are extremely patient, honest and caring professionals that I would recommend without hesitation.

My wife, Judy, and I want to let you know how pleased and appreciative we are of the superlative service provided by Bernadette Caswell in regard to our recent Sarasota home purchase. We consider ourselves extraordinarily fortunate to have met Bernadette. We visited Sarasota for the first time in March and never in our wildest dreams did we expect to own a home by July. After the closing Bernadette asked me if there was anything she could have done better to assist us. She has been and continues to be so wonderful I can honestly say there is not anything she could have done better. I've had several questions since the closing and Bernadette answered them with the same diligence as she did prior to closing. Judy and I came to the same realization that Bernadette provided us the same level of service we would expect if we were purchasing a multimillion dollar home. Most importantly, we felt that in Bernadette we truly had an advocate for our best interests. We quickly learned that her honesty and straightforwardness allowed us to trust her opinions and rely on her guidance. Since we were total novices to the area this provided tremendous peace of mind. Among her many skills Bernadette is a great listener and observer. Her ability to gauge our tastes and interests enabled us to purchase the perfect property. Bernadette possesses magnificent organizational skills. Every phone call, email, and text was answered immediately.The level of service provided by Bernadette is beyond anything we could have hoped for let alone expected. For this reason we will refer anyone interested in the Sarasota area to Bernadette and Michael Saunders.
