My husband and I worked with Michele recently to purchase our family home. She did a great job representing us and negotiating on our behalf. We also invest in real estate and working with her in that respect is always a pleasure. She's prompt and responsive whenever we need to see a property and also sends us opportunities in which she thinks we might be interested. Highly recommend her!

Barbara is one of the hardest working realtors that I've ever done business with. She went above and beyond of what was expected of her as my realtor, and I cannot praise her highly enough! She was determined in getting the best deal for me, but at the same time, always listened to whatever concerns I might have had. She was always willing to help in any way she could and I could not have asked for a better realtor! If you are buying or selling a house, I guarantee you that Barbara will make you a very happy buyer or seller!

Robert and his team were outstanding in all respects. We purchase and sold numerous homes over many years, and truly found Robert to be the most professional, caring and attentive agent on our behalf. We would most highly recommend his services to anyone who asks us for a recommendation, and would certainly contract him if and when we make another move in the future.

We were on vacation in Sarasota for 3 months and were interested in looking at property while we were there. We were in contact with Rory before our trip and connected with him when we arrived. He knew what we wanted and what our budget was. He only showed us property that was in our budget and what met our needs. He would send us listings and we were able to check out the neighborhood before scheduling an appointment. Rory met all of our needs and out of the condos he showed us, we chose the last one - he saved the best for last. He is very knowledgeable of the condos in the area we were interested in. He met all our requirements in the condo and found just what we wanted. We would highly recommend Rory as he is very professional but also very personable and friendly.

Michele was knowledgeable of the market and pricing. She offered tips for making offers and foreclosures and educated me with the process as I was a first time home buyer. She pointed out positives and negatives about each property to help me make an educated decision and even helped me work with a lender to make sure I had adequate financing.

Kaith showed me a couple properties in Sarasota. They were all such lovely homes that we still haven't decided. Regardless, Keith is a pleasure to work with! He is always ready to answer all of our questions regarding any property or the neighborhood in great detail. He is also incredibly nice and funny. I am confident that Keith will help us find our dream home. He is fantastic at listening to our needs and what we are looking for and goes out of his way to find what we want.

My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Michele Tanner. Michele was very knowledgeable about the home we were interested in purchasing and made the process less stressful than if we had not had her guidance and we trusted her completely. Michele kept in contact with us throughout the process with updates, always answering our questions and concerns in a timely manner. Michele's willingness to reassure us along the way in the caring way she does is priceless, and we will definitely use her again for our next real estate purchase!

We worked with a couple of other agents before meeting Rory at an open house he was showing. One agent we had used just talked so much about himself and moved too slowly for our time frame. Another just did NOT get what we were looking for. On the first day out with Rory he showed me 3 things that we would have been very happy with. We ended up getting our place (which we love) for less than what we actually expected to pay and he got some super cool beds we really liked thrown into the deal. I would recommend him to anyone but especially to snow birds looking in the Siesta Key/Sarasota area. He knows the area, the market and had a good feel for what we were looking for. I also liked the portal he used when we were back in Virginia, keeping us up to date daily on new things appearing on the market. My husband liked his BMW. :) I highly recommend this guy if you don't have a realtor in the Sarasota area.

She gives her clients excellent advice about how to stage their home if needed and works so well accommodating each potential buyers' needs.

Michelle helped me find a winter home in Florida. She is the best realtor I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with and I have purchased many homes in my time. No hard sell. Very knowledgeable. Also, helped with everything I needed including finding a great contractor to do rehab work on the place at a price point I needed Many great suggestions on what I should do. Even helped me pick out a paint color! And I was in Pittsburgh most of the time. She will partner with you, going out of her way to make sure everything is taken care of.

Earlier this year, I was living in Washington DC and I was poised to move with my girlfriend to Sarasota for business. We didn't know whether we wanted to buy or rent, let alone the fact that I had never even been to the area, so I was a bit overwhelmed with the process. I was put in touch with Chase through a mutual friend to begin our search. He was able to paint us a thorough picture of what options were available to us, and was exceedingly patient in answering and addressing our many questions and reservations. We felt as if he was very engaged and motivated to help us find our dream home. I feel confident we would've found it too had I not been relocated elsewhere instead!! You are in great hands with Chase Harris.

Chase was very knowledgeable and patient when showing me spaces in Sarasota County. Having a native Floridian describe not only the pros but the few cons of living in a Sarasota home, made the process honest and professional. I would highly recommend Chase Harris to strangers, friends, and family looking for a home in Sarasota.

Keith is not only a real estate professional but has a personal connection with clients. He responds in a timely manner, answers all questions and goes above and beyond when researching what is asked of him. I enjoy that he also makes videos about the houses because when I lack the time to go to an open house, I am able to showcase the house to my spouse before making an appointment to visit the location. Keith is a renaissance man! He knows a little about everything such as plumbing and construction too, which is very helpful for us house flippers!

Robert is as powerful, talented and genuine as he looks. He understands high level universal principles of transaction and so he attracts the right buyer or property depending on how you instruct his focus. We've used Robert both for selling and buying on separate occasions and are extremely impressed by his approach. I doubt we'll ever change realtor, he keeps making us a lot of money.

Garrett did such an amazing job helping me search for the right home. Coming in from out of town I didn’t know what to expect. After speaking with Garrett multiple times over the phone I knew he was very familiar with the area. When we meet for the property tours he was very personable, professional and knowledgeable. He is currently helping me look at homes while i’m back in my home state. I will most likely put in an offer soon, I trust his judgement and integrity.

Michelle Tanner is the most professional real estate agent I have ever worked with! She went over the call of duty both when I was trying to buy a home and also when I was thinking about selling my home. She is a wealth of information and has plenty of contacts in her network who she will recommend. She has great ideas on how to increase the value of the house and offers assistance and advice long after the sale. I would highly recommend her services.

I have had 3 transactions with her, and consider her a friend. You learn in the real estate business that there are plenty that take advantage and lie to "get the deal done". Not Barbara, she has a genuine concern and conviction to make sure the transaction is above board and done appropriately.
I strongly recommend her, as she is aggressive, fair and has great knowledge of the process which makes for smooth transactions!!

I moved to Sarasota recently and did not know much about the area, but I knew that I wanted to own a home here. I had the pleasure of working with Garrett and he went above and beyond to help assist me with the process. He's extremely knowledgeable on the Sarasota/Bradenton area and in the real estate field. He was quick to respond to any questions and/or concerns that I had and was able to listen to the things that I wanted in my home and help find me my "dream home". His drive, responsiveness, professionalism, quirk, and knowledge truly made my touring and buying experience above & beyond wonderful. Thank you, Garrett for making such a difficult and stressful time in my life seem easy.

Were referred to Michelle by a friend to help us move from San Diego to the Tamp are. Our friend said Michelle would take care of us, and she was not lying. Because we were dealing with dishonest and incompetent buyers on the sale of our home in San Diego, this was overall a terrible experience. However we had Michelle. She did so much work. I don't know what we would have done with out her. I can't put into words what she did.

I’ve spoken with and received advice from dozens of realtors but Garrett by far has been the most knowledgable and enthusiastic about helping. He was very patient at answering all of my questions which was reassuring for a first time homebuyer like myself. I know that once everything is in order and I'm ready to purchase he will be the one to help me.

I give Robert Milligan my highest recommendation for being an extremely pleasant, professional, knowledgeable, and trustworthy real estate agent and broker. He is one of the most ethical real estate brokers I have ever met and is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of real estate in the Gulf Coast of Florida. My husband and I have had multiple interactions with Robert and have purchased several of his listings in various price points. Each transaction has been very smooth with any issues that came up handled immediately, efficiently, and successfully. Thank you, Robert, it is a pleasure to work with you!

Valerie was a pleasure to work with! Its a tough market to find a good deal right now and she was able to show us many houses that sparked interest and did her job to make us think outside the box. She sent a lot of great finds to us and was very fast to respond and show us properties! We will be using her again very soon

I was relocating from New York to the Sarasota/Tampa area for work. I knew Chase worked in real estate in that area, and he's a great friend of mine from college. I was thoroughly impressed with his ability to line up such beautiful properties for my girlfriend, puppy and I to look at in such short notice. His knowledge of the area is unparalleled to that of others I have met in Florida. I didn't end up moving to Florida, but if I do, he will be the first person I contact!

Keith is extremely knowledgeable about the market and will be a great person to go to when buying or selling property.

Keith is such a great person to work with! He has a great attitude and truly wants the best for his clients. If you are looking to sell your home, he does amazing online virtual tours. I love that his videos move you through the home as if you were walking through yourself. He also does some aerial shots of the surrounding area to give you a feel of the neighborhood. You'll have buyers in no time!

We contacted Barbara on a Friday around noon and set up an appointment to see the house at 3:00 pm that day. She gave us a great tour of the house and answered all our questions about the house. We did not know about the rules and regulations about the HOA. She emailed us the HOA regulations. That evening we told her we wanted to bid on the house. We told her what we wanted to offer and she said she would write up a proposal. She came to our house the next night and went over the contract with us. We signed the proposal and she took our offer back to the owners. Our offer was accepted on Monday afternoon. Barbara got things rolling and we closed on the house on Dec. 29, 2014
I was very happy with how fast we were able to close on our house

Michele was very professional, and able to answer all questions, and help me get bankers in the area, and had a person to do home inspection. I could not have done all I got done without her help. I can't say enough about how she made my purchasing experience a very easy one for me, Michele was able to answer all questions, and was always there when needed.
I highly recommend her as your realtor. Herman Martin

Barbara always was very professional and extremely helpful.
She went above and beyond any realtor we have ever had. When we thought we could not get our price, she managed to have the buyers increase their bid. She helped us locate and buy our new home. Her suggestions and ideas were always good. Her integrity is excellent and her personality and communication skills are excellent. At the open houses she shared so many wonderful features of our home with prospective buys. She is not just interested in completing sales but she does all in her power to make the sellers and buyers happy. I highly recommend her to sellers and buyers alike.

Michele helped us buy not one, but TWO properties; one for a home and one for investment. She set up times when WE were available, made sure the properties met OUR guidelines, not hers, and made all the arrangements with an excellent inspection company. She went well beyond what most brokers have done, including representing our needs with the HOA, taking video, and helping us move in AFTER the closing! She was professional but personal at the same time.
We should mention that we found her based upon online reviews, and it’s clear that she earned her positive comments honestly!

Bought a condo in Bradenton. Michelle was professional and courteous. She also saved me money by recommending good and reasonable labor for immediate painting and minor repair work that I required.

Michelle sold our home to us and sold it for us when I needed to sell. She did a wonderful jobs on both sides. The sale was a miracle: List (day1) Sell almost full price (dat 2) close within 3 weeks. Can't beat that kind of performance!!!!

Robert and Valerie were very knowledgeable and make a great team! We used Robert and Valerie to list our house and it sold in 7 days! While searching for our next home, from Initial Offer to Closing, Robert and his team were there every step of the way. Both are True Professionals and we experienced great follow up after we closed on the new house as well!

Michele sold our home in Bradenton within the time frame she told us before we contracted with her. We owned a home in a nice neighborhood and worked with the home owners association because our buyer needed to move in prior to the close. She also worked with an attorney to help draw up the paperwork and made the process very simple for us.

Worked well in the short amount of time we had. Made sure things were ready to go. Really went out of her way to not only find the home we wanted but helped us get the deal we wanted also. Made the whole process breeze!!!

Our experience with Robert and Valerie was fantastic and it saved us thousands of dollars. The wonderful website they developed had about 100 views a day and three or so saves. If I had a question, Valerie responded quickly and she followed up on each prospective buyer with their comments which were very helpful. When we had a problem with two buyers wanting the property, Robert handled it professionally. This is a wonderful office to work with and if we ever sell again, we will certainly use their expertise.

Rory McDonald is an exceptional realtor. He goes above and beyond to satisfy the needs of his clients.

I meet Garrett after seeing one of advertisements for a property he had listed. I was looking for an agent to sell my home since I don't have the time to do it on my own. Meeting him in person was great, he was very personable and on top of the newest real estate technology trends. When it's time to sell he will be the first person I call. Thanks for all of the help and info Garrett!

Keith has been beyond helpful as we begin to look for our first home. He has sent us many listings with phenomenal video tours of the homes, which has helped tremendously since we are not currently located in the Sarasota area. The videos that Keith makes of the homes include a full virtual tour of the home, yard, a bird's eye view of the property, and the surrounding neighborhood and town. He has been able to answer all of our questions and has been friendly and professional. I would highly recommend Keith Lemelin.

We have worked with Garrett because he was a recommendation from a close friend of ours. He helped my wife and I search for a second home on Lido Key. He was very professional and prompt at responding to my questions and concerns. I was very impressed at his knowledge and integration of tech into his career. I myself am in the technical field and found it a pleasure to talk to an intelligent and well spoken individual like Garrett.

Michele is a true gem in the real estate business. I met her at one of her listings that I wanted to take a look at and (after receiving 2 referrals for other agents to contact from friends) we decided to go with Michelle, based on my initial encounter with her.
She's friendly, warm, easy to get along with and will go out of her way to help with any answers you need.
She held our hand through the whole process....handled things that didn't necessarily need to be done by us, like getting a refrigerator repair person to come to the home we were in contract on...to make sure that everything was ok and do a small repair.
I wouldn't hesitate to hire her....if you want someone to actually be your "friend" through and post the home buying process!
WE LOVE MICHELE!!!!

Chase did an excellent job showing us new homes in the area! The process was unbelievably seamless thanks the time and effort Chase put in ahead of time understanding what would be best for us. Having grown up in Sarasota for his entire life, he knew the ins and outs of all the local neighborhoods better than I could have imagined. His local advice was thorough and superior to all others we had spoken to. I highly recommend you utilize Chase as your real estate professional if you are looking for a new home in Sarasota - he will provide you with fantastic service while finding you an amazing home at an excellent price!

Me and my wife Cindy were looking for a cottage in the Sarasota area as a vacation home, and a previous agency (which I won't name :/) was bringing us to listings that were either out of our budget or didn't meet our needs. That's when we met Chase through a mutual friend! Not only did he know Sarasota like the back of his hand, but he took the time to listen and showed us multiple great listings that were within our budget. Chase knew that we likely won't be buying until next year, but he took the time to make us feel like we were his number one priority.

Finding a new apartment can be a stressful task, but Chase made the process easy by providing me with tons of affordable options and quickly replying to any inquiries I had.

Michele immediately contacted us when we placed our request. She spent time to talk with us and find out what we were looking for and continues to send us properties that fall in our desired category. She does not burden us with properties that do not fall in this category. We have enjoyed communicating with her and will continue to do so until we find the property we decide to purchase. She also made the effort to head us off from properties that we located on our own but she had good local knowledge of the area, traffic, etc. that she knew would not be what we wanted. Honest, straight forward and pleasant....we couldn't ask for more.

Don't bother with any other Realtor, go straight to Barbara, she is the only one you need, trust me. Barbara outshines any other realtor that I have ever had, and I've had a few. She is excellent at what she does, you have her undivided attention, and she never shows you anything that you wouldn't want to look at. You never have to track her down, she stays in contact with you, and that's rare. Whether it be information or paperwork, or phone calls that need to be done, she is on it immediately. She is totally there with you from beginning to end, and goes above and beyond anyone else in this area. Plus she is a nice person and seriously cares about her clients and I feel I have made a good friend in Barbara.

Garrett helped me early on in my process to understand what we could buy in our area. He was very patient throughout the whole process and made sure that we were only seeing homes that we liked.

We recently purchased a home, with Garrett Yankee as our realtor. He was knowledgeable, dependable, and listened to exactly what we were looking for.

Barbara was highly recommended to help us (by a friend who had been a previous client of hers) find a home in Bradenton and she did a fantastic and professional job over the 3 months of our search. She is fabulous to work with... and we were NOT the easiest of clients, (long distance search). Barbara has vast real estate knowledge, is very detailed and truly acts as your advocate through the whole process of purchasing your home. She kept us grounded by slowing us down when emotions were high. We would highly recommend Barbara to anyone searching for a new home!

Chase was absolutely great to work with. We were trying to buy a home in Sarasota while living in Rhode Island. Chase always sent us links and scheduled showings for when were down here in Sarasota. As challenging as this was, Chase made it happen. We now have a place we absolutely love - thanks to Chase.

When I was seeking to sell a rental property, I did research on the web to find the most highly recommended realtors/brokers. I chose Preferred Shore due to its high ratings, and review comments. I engaged Chase Harris, and was very pleased with the process. Chase was very easy to work with, had great follow through, responded to any question quickly, if he didn't know he found out, and he made the entire process seem so simple. I had an offer within hours of the listing going online on a Friday afternoon, and by Sunday had something like 6-8 showings and accepted an offer by Sunday afternoon. The rest went flawlessly. I think Chase is a fantastic representative for Perferred Shore, and realtors in general. I highly recommend him, and will certainly consider using him myself for any such need in the future.

Garrett is a great person to use to get your house sold or to find the home of your dreams. He is extremely knowledgeable in the field of real estate, plus his personality is a HUGE plus.

Thanks you!

He is always willing to answer your questions and is eager to help you find the right answers at all times. His level of professionalism and outstanding communication skills made the home buying process extremely enjoyable and smooth. I highly recommend his services to anyone seeking a proactive partner in real-estate. He is simply the best out there. You won't be disappointed, Merle will help you sell your home fast or will guide you in the right direction to find your dream home. With his help, I just bought mine!

My fiance and I worked with Michele extensively to purchase a house. We had a goal of closing before our wedding, though we didn't get started as early as would be ideal. She was relentless in scheduling showings and was very flexible in the searching process. Once we found the home we wanted, she was incredibly quick in getting the bid and counter-bids in and working with all parties to get closing finished as soon as possible. In fact, we were able to close as FHA borrowers in far less than a month!
Michele had plenty of great resources she recruited to help us and was very knowledgeable when we had questions. We would highly suggest her as an agent!

While looking for a new place to live can be a stressful time, Chase's knowledge of the local market helped make my experience enjoyable. I would highly recommend Chase as a real estate agent because of his professionalism and his commitment to helping people find the right home.

Michele listed and sold not one, but two properties that we owned and we were extremely pleased with the service she provided us as well as the prices and negotiation procedures with both properties. . She is professional, experienced, great to work with, and very effective! Michele is definitely an expert at the West Coast market in real estate and I highly recommend working with her if you have a property to sell or are looking for your perfect home!

Michelle took us for an entire day to become acquainted with the Lakewood ranch and Sarasota areas. She directed us to several communities based on our needs, and explored the Lakewood ranch area and all they have to offer,sent us information about local events and things to do during our visit. She has followed up since our visit and we look forward to dealing with her again once we return to Sarasota

Barbara was excellent in selling our existing home and went above and beyond finding our new house. We purchased a foreclosed home and she worked very diligently and was very vigorous with the bank to expedite a faster closing. Amongst many things Barbara did for us, she assisted us in obtaining a loan, walked our 100lb crazy black lab during open houses and even surprised our children with a volleyball net for our new pool home. Barbara listened to our needs and very courteous and professional. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell their current home or purchase a new one.

Robert helped us with 3 different real estate transactions over the past few years and we cannot say enough about him. He is savvy and ambitious while at the same time very down to earth. An all around great guy who always exceeded our expectations. Would highly recommend his services!

We've worked with MANY Realtors in many parts of the country, Michele is one of the best we've EVER worked with. She knows the market extremely well, but, if there's something about which she may not be sure she gets the answers. And, she does it quickly and efficiently! We recently bought a property at Auction we'd never used this process befor. Michele represented us and kept us informed every step of the way. We're hoping to do some investment property purchases in the very near future and there is NO doubt who our Realtor will be. Thank you Michele!

Keith is down to earth, resourceful, and striaight to the point! He's the type of guy who wouldn't do you dirty and is very honest and is genially interested in my need to look for a home. We went to look at a couple of houses and he knows his stuff. If you ever look for a house and want someone friendly or resourceful, then you just found the right guy. Very happy with the finds Keith has shown me.

Chase provided to be an extremely helpful agent in helping us search for homes. He navigated us all throughout Sarasota and seems to know the area really well--he even surprised us with some neighborhoods we never even knew existed! Ultimately, we decided to rent instead of buy but we will be calling Chase when we are ready to purchase our home

Michele is intelligent, diligent, and work with a high level of integrity. As first-time home buyers, my wife and I had very little knowledge of what to do. Michele guided us every step of the way in choosing and purchasing the perfect home. She is very friendly and responds quickly to any questions or concerns we had with honest and informative advice.

I really love Keith's videos--really helps you get a sense of a place. I gave him a call yesterday, and he seems like a great guy! Excited to do business with him going forward

Garrett was very helpful during a difficult time for me. He found a great property for me to move into in two days. Now he is finding the right property for me to purchase. I was put in a very difficult situation by another agent and Garrett was able to solve my problem in two days. I'm very thankful.

When I called Michelle to ask if she was interested in taking a look at our house to see what we should do before we sold it. We had to do no more!!!! She meet us at the house and that's all it took. I gave her a key and we stepped back and she did the rest.She made all the arrangements to upgrade and had it all done and sold in less then 6 wks. I have never seen anyone move as fast as she did. She is the friendliest realtor and absolutely serious about getting your property sold. I'd never want to deal with anyone else after having such a great experience with Michelle Tanner. She is the best!!!!!!!

Robert and his staff are in a class by themselves. We've dealt with many, many realtors over the years, but none were as competent, pleasant, and easy to work with. They did an amazing presentation of our condo and it sold in two weeks! Every member of their staff is enthusiastically dedicated to doing a great job -- 3D video, still pictures and video walkthrough, drone photos of our home and the community, and step by step communication of the sale process. We couldn't recommend them more highly!

We were referred to Michele by a friend who had worked with her to purchase a townhouse in Sarasota. Thanks to Michele, we are now also the proud owner of a Sarasota property. As we are a Canadian couple, a lot of our work with Michele was done by email and telephone before we arrived in person in Sarasota. I cannot say enough good things about Michele: She is responsive, responsible, personable, a good negotiator and always available. She went above and beyond to give us a guided tour of wonderful Sarasota before we left to go home. Problems were immediately addressed. Her referrals to a lawyer and property manager and tradesmen were excellent. Particularly helpful was her ability to navigate us through a real estate purchasing process that is somewhat different from the one we are familiar with in Canada. Our overall experience of purchasing a real estate property in a distant city which we did not know well was a positive one in large measure because of the work of Michele Tanner. I highly recommend her.

Chase is a very good example of a professional real estate agent. He is a friendly guy, very easy going and patient and truly helpful.
He has excellent knowledge of the area, very good understanding of the market and the right skills to negotiate and get things simply done.
It was about selling our condo, and all I can say he made this happen in a very smooth way. I was away in Europe and all the hard work was left for him to do. I am very pleased with the way he organized everything, from dealing with condo association to title agency. All my questions were answered in a timely and professional manner ( though it was not easy as we are 6 hours ahead in Europe) yet there was a smooth communication between us.
I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional real estate agent in this area. A real pleasure to work with him and I know that he is going to be my agent again when it comes to finding another home in Sarasota. Thanks Chase again.

I have moved multiple times in my life and I have to say the last time was by far the smoothest. This was all because I had Chase there to guide me through the way. He knew the Sarasota area like the back of his hand and was extremely helpful with finding many options within my price range. Using Chase to guide you to your next home is a no brainer.

Rory was the most efficient real estate agent I have ever worked with. He sold my house in 1 day as he strategically planned out every detail to get the job done including fabulous photography. Aside from being a real estate pro he is a very polite, kind, and caring person. I would highly recommend Rory if you are looking to find a real estate agent to get
the job done.

A wonderful lady to work with. Took pride in the home as if it was her own. Really cared about what my client wanted and needed. Would highly recommend Michele. She was very professional and just a joy to work with.

My partner and I spent a long time looking to buy our first home. Michele went above and beyond to be there for us every step of the way. We were not the easiest of clients and she took it in stride. We are in our amazing home because of her and would never recommend anyone else. Even after 4 years she's still there to answer any questions I have.
luv her

Barbara helped me purchase my property so it seemed only fitting that she was the agent to help me sell.
From the very start she was a huge benefit.
She researched the market depth of our area and we determined a viable listing price.
She made all the arrangements for our open house; advising and accommodating our pets, staging the house and fielding offers.
She was there throughout the closing process, keeping me abreast of the new developments on the buyers side and she was also very attentive to detail, spotting oversights from 3rd parties.
Ultimately, I walked away from the process with a great price for my house with no stress or headaches - not much more you can ask for.
