Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
We had used several real estate agents before we met Jill Tench. She was definitely different from the other agents we had used. Jill was professional and was proactive without being overbearing. She was responsive to our requirements as a buyer and knew what we wanted in finding our new Florida residence. We have no hesitation about recommending that a buyer or seller use Jill Tench for their real estate requirements.

Ben did a great job of arranging for us to see the various properties and, after we made a choice, he carefully managed all the details. He stayed on top of everything.

I was trying to sell my property By Owner off Zillow at a slow time of the year and was looking for A Buyer’s Agent at one point. I received many phone calls I was almost regretful I posted this request. I did take the calls which I thought would be a good first step to move the property with some incentive. Chis Schwartz was one of the calls I received. We talked and I found him unlike the other’s I spoke with. Immediately I found him professional, patient and there was Absolutely No Pressure and he was so calm. Then I heard a little girl’s voice in the background, he excused himself for a moment to take care of his little girl. For me as a Mother I found this incredibly endearing as he said that he had just picked her up from day care and he was taking care of her while Mom was at work. I could hear his kindness. Even with a Potential New Client on the phone. I have to tell you this Blew Me Away from the Get Go! I instantly decided I like This Guy! Working tenaciously and on Dad Duty. I worked from home for years and I know personally how hard it is to maintain your patience with a child at home when you are working from home. I Made My Decision. Chris convinced me easily to be his agent. Not a Buyer’s Agent, but to list the property with him. I agreed and I just want to say that there was never a moment of Regret. This young man has More Knowledge than Integrity then some of the agents with years and years of Experience!! From the beginning I knew he was Special, Determined, Kind and Oh So Calm and Understanding – Never Felt Pressured Ever! He held Open Houses regularly and always so very prompt to communicate and always so incredibly responsive, with Honesty and Sincerity Always! Even when it came to issues I wasn’t comfortable with OR overly emotional over the pressure of selling a property. I even cried on the phone to him a couple times and he was Amazing and So Understanding!!! Emotional and crying to your Realtor can be quite embarrassing to say the least! Yet, Chris Schwartz said and did everything Without Pressure and with such kindliness. Multiple offers all at one time can be some Serious Pressure on Many Levels as a Buyer or a Seller. He was On the Mark with Everything!!!! Extra Ordinarily Professional at Every Level – Always! Offers, decisions, questions, anticipation and again the emotions on my side. Chris had all the proper accurate. Knowledgeable, thoughtful responses. When we received an offer that had an Amendment that was questionable and unusual, he reached out to the broker’s legal department to obtain accurate answers. Then, after accepting an offer and going through the inspection period and on the final day……we had the Most Unusual incident. Nothing to do with the 1970’s Condo inspection report. An Address Issue. All of the Unities we under one address that did NOT match the Tax Records. The Buyers wanted the issue corrected. IF it couldn’t be corrected they wanted to back out! This Error was discovered when they attempted to change the Utilities to their names after the inspection went well. I knew about the problem as I found out – but after closing on the property when I attempted to change the utilities to my name after closing. I had made great strides to correct it without success. To add additional stress it was the weekend, and unless it is an Emergency they are closed. I work Full Time as most due, I asked for a day off to remedy during working hours. Extraordinarily upsetting because I knew I was unsuccessful getting it corrected! Monday, Chris Schwartz spent the entire day resolving the issue. VIOLA!!!! He fixed it!!!! The ISSUE was a Typo with the County Records! The Utilities had always been correct when I attempted to fix the Error. I NEVER thought it would be the County Records. Chris made the correction and it posted on the County Records within 24 Hours! I was Flabbergasted to say the least. So, IF YOU WANT TO TALK ……..About Going Above and Beyond??? This AMAZING YOUNG man DID! Chris Schwartz Actually Saved the Deal and I didn’t have to take the day off OR Lose the Sale!!! I Couldn’t Be More Grateful Or Impressed! WHO COULD ASK FOR MORE??? Honestly, this agent has the Integrity, Knowledge, and Professionalism and ….Empathy any Seller/Buyer would OR could Ever Ask For!!! ALL THE WAY!!! EVERY DAY!!! It was My Great Pleasure to Work with Chris Schwartz and I wouldn’t Hesitate to Recommend Him over a Friend or Family Member that might be a Realtor!! He Is Outstanding!! Happy Clients Make the Best Referrals!!! ABOVE & BEYOND IS MY Testimonial! Much Success! Sincerely, Glynis Gleason-Cordeiro Closing Day 11/01/2019 And Yes, Chris Was There – On Time – With A Smile and Reassurance!

My hats off to Linda Driggs and Michael Saunders real estate. In an incredibly competitive market for high rise condos on the Sarasota waterfront, Linda was able to sell our condo in just over four months – this was in spite of the fact that our 13-year-old condo was competing against a large number of units in brand new buildings with amazing amenities. A wonderful job of ¡°staging¡± our condo, as recommended by Linda, and her hard work and tenacity got the job done in a very timely fashion AND during the offseason. My wife Patty and I could not be more grateful to Linda for her hard work and knowledge of the Sarasota market.

Chris helped me and my wife buy our first house. Which buying a house is typically stressful, but he made it easier and way less stressful. He always knew the answers to my questions and went into depth about other situations that could occur. I would suggest him to anyone buying a house or in the market for anything related. Thanks, Chris, for all your hard work and for getting my family into our forever home!

Chris is not your average realtor just looking for a sale. He takes pride in finding the right home to accommodate your family's needs. He was there for my family every step of the way. Encouraging us when we needed it and lending a hand when we needed it as well. He has a big heart and makes finding a home as easy as possible. If he doesn't know an answer he takes it upon himself to find it out for you. Not only was he knowledgeable in the process of finding a home but as well as the financing part. Chris was there for my family from start to finish making sure that everything went smoothly. I would recommend Chris to anyone and everyone! He is a people person and cares about his clients! Thank you, again, Chris. We love our new home.

Chris was a lifesaver for us relocating from Texas to Florida. We had only 48 hours to look at multiple houses, make a decision, and fly back to Texas. Chris sent us selection that met our criteria ahead of time so we could hit the ground running when we arrived. He spent the entire day and a half driving us house to house until we found the right one. We were able to sign a contract on our dream home and fly out on time. He stayed in touch with us and our builder/salesperson until we got back to Florida. He definitely has a knack for the personal touch and great customer service. Now we are living our best beach life.
