What a pleasure it was working with Chris Van Vliet! Prompt, willing, & thorough. He always promptly responded to our questions and issues. He was always willing to go the extra mile to ensure our purchase stayed on track. He was also extremely thorough when performing his responsibilities. We couldn't have asked for a better realtor. If you are looking for someone to sell your home or looking to purchase, I highly recommend Chris Van Vliet. Summed up in two words; He Cares!

Thank you again, Judy! The villa you found for our daughter is perfect, and we are beyond excited for her move to Sarasota. If you hadn't sent us the listing and scheduled a showing the moment it went on the market, we would have totally missed out on this one. She is so thrilled with the pictures; we can't wait for her to see it in person. You are a rock star!

Cynthia is simply the best! Being from Michigan and not knowing a local agent personally was a bit perplexing. My wife’s cousin had dealt with a Michael Saunders agent and suggested we talk to him. We did, but he does not work the Punta Gorda area. Per chance while being in Florida on vacation we ran into a friend of Cynthia’s who lives in Punta Gorda. After telling her friend we were thinking of that area to purchase a home and had talked to another MS agent, Cynthia was recommended. So we got together and in two days we looked at 18 houses. Cynthia was not trying to sell me a house to sell a house. She was educating me pointing out things that a buyer might not see. We ended up making an offer on a house that we are going to enjoy for years. Cynthia is a smart, tough negotiator! Our offer was enventually accepted. Having to get back to Michigan, Cynthia was there for the home inspection, following up on some repairs and did the final walk through before closing. If/when we sell the house, Cynthia will get the listing. I’m sure she would work just as hard for us as a seller. Like I said, she is simply the best!

Crystal has been so helpful in finding us our dream home! She's so quick to respond and is very accommodating of our schedule. She offers great suggestions and also brings up questions about prospective properties that we wouldn't think to ask. I'm very grateful to have found someone we can trust!

Doug has now handled 3 transactions for my wife and I in the last 4 years on Siesta Key (2 sales; 1 purchase). His professionalism, accessibility, and willingness to assist with everything associated with the sale process is incredible. We have owned homes in 8 different states over the last 3 decades, and have never come close to developing the relationship with another agent that we've enjoyed with Doug. We would highly encourage anyone looking to buy/sell a home in the general Sarasota area to engage Doug; you won't be disappointed!

Bobbie did an excellent job selling my father's condo. She worked diligently and was on top of every detail. We had to do much of our work by phone and email because we do not live in Florida. Bobbie was wonderful about her timely and clear communications. She also went over and above to help us with; plumbers, painters , movers, cleaning services etc. We can't thank her enough.

Kristy really knows the market and was able to give us excellent referrals when buying our home. It is obvious she values relationships and the industry. She does more than what is expected. Her honesty and work ethic is superior. It was a pleasure working with someone who remained calm and professional even during the ups and downs of buying and selling a home. Kristy is a true gem!

Tina just sold my third house. She is the best realtor I’ve ever worked with. She goes over and beyond to assure I’m getting the best price for my home. She’s honest and trust worth.

Sandi Dietrich Is an amazing lady, when we first met her I instantly knew she was the person I would trust the sale of our home with . She went above and beyond what we ever experienced with other real estate agent, she dotted all the i’s and crossed the t’s. Sandi had all the specifications of the area , canal, town information in regarding taxes, water ways , size of boats , community fees ready for any questions that came her way, what she didn’t have she quickly retrieved . We are Canadians, listed June 2017 and our home sold in March 2018. We were out of the country for many months, we had no worries with our home, Sandi made sure everything was kept in tip top shape by maintenance crew, and she actually did more than ever expected of her. When Hurricane Irma came our home was ready with help from Sandi who hired a company to install the shutters for us. Sandi held a numbered open house and served coffee and baked cookies She had also staged our home for the sale. Upon clearing with us Sandi held one of the monthly staff meeting at our home that opened it up to a bigger market. We couldn’t have been more pleased or appreciative to have the privilege of having Sandi as our agent. Sandi is very professional , a beautiful family oriented lady who we consider a friend . Many thanks for all you did and continues success in your future. Noreen and Lars Nedrevåge
