Not Only An Amazing Realtor But We Became Good Friends

Jane helped my father and I find our dream home in Sarasota in 2009 for our family the U.K.. We bought the condominium sight unseen from the U.K. Jane walked us through the whole process seamlessly and was never too busy to answer our questions and offer advice from currency exchange, taxation and more. She always made sure our condo was ready for our visits. We knew we could always trust her implicitly and over the years became good friends. With the onset of Covid and travel curtailed due to lockdowns, we wondered when we would ever be able to visit again. Jane throughout this time kept us fully informed of the market and the pandemic in the U.S. We came to the conclusion with the rising prices now was a good time to sell and take advantage of the high buyer demand. This was somewhat daunting as we were not able to be in Sarasota but Jane once again walked us through the sale with ease, even explaining the implications of Withholding Tax for foreign owners and more. She had the condo sold in 2 days. Jane's professionalism, expertise and knowledge are invaluable and beyond our expectations. Whether buying or selling you are in excellent and caring hands working with Jane. Paul & Brian

Nothing Was Too Much Trouble.

When it came time for us to sell our home which had previously been my grandparents we had no hesitation in calling Jane to list the home. There was quite an interesting history to the home and Jane arranged for an article to be on the front page of the Sunday Herald Tribune to tell its story. It wasn't long before we had a buyer and so we now needed to find our next home. We wanted to stay in the same area but Jane focused in on exactly what we were looking for and found us the perfect new home. We couldn't have been happier throughout both transactions. Jane went above and beyond.. Tom & Cheryl

Highly Recommended

Jane sold friends of mine two different properties in Sarasota and Longboat Key. She came highly recommended. Through a year and a half of emailing listings; I finally had a chance to commute from Maryland to Florida to experinece a hands on realtor search for the right property for me. Jane's patience, perseverance, knowledge and hand holding walked me through from beginning to end. Thanks again Jane! Janet

Friend Recommendation

We chose Jane as our realtor, based upon a recommendation from a friend and are so glad we did! She spent several full days with us, first helping us narrow down the area where we wanted to focus, and then helping us to find just the right community and home. Her experience, expertise and thoughful suggestions were invaluable. She also offered excellent recommendations for a home inspector, a mover and a homeowner's insurance company. We will not hesitate recommending her to friends considering a move to Florida. Cindy

Tremendous Help

We had known Jane for a number of years and when the time came to sell our home we didn't hesitate in asking her to list it. The service she provided was a tremendous help. Our home was sold very quickly due to her unique marketing of the property. Jane always communicated with us regularly which was so reassuring and walked us through the selling process with ease. If you're thinking of selling, give Jane a call. Bruce & Jane

Out of town

Jane listed our condo on Siesta Key and it went under contract in just a few days for more than the list price. We were thrilled but this did not deter her from keeping us informed throughout the transaction even though we were out of town. We truly appreciated her commitment and expertise throughout. Nico & Susan

First Time Home Buyers

Natalya and I were first time home buyers. We started our search with Jane via email. We knew we wanted to live in Sarasota but where was the question, having not even been there. Jane listened to our needs and showed us a number of homes using FaceTime. She knew exactly what we were looking for and it wasn't long before we found the perfect home to purchase. We could not come to Sarasota during the whole process so Jane FaceTimed us during the Home Inspection and the eventual Walk Through. She was always very responsive and available when we needed her. After closing we decided we would have to rent it out for a year. Yet again, Jane was there to help and it wasn't long before a tenant was found. We love our new home and could not have done it without Jane. Anyone looking to purchase home would be lucky to work with her! Alex

The Perfect Realtor

Our son and his wife had been in touch with Jane to start looking for a home for us. They were the ones who told us they had the perfect person to work with in Florida! We cannot say enough positive comments about working with her. Jane was the finest professional we could have found to help us out because we were on a tight time schedule and she was so patient, and always highly organized and prepared. In addition to Jane's expertise we were equally as pleased with how she helped in so many ways. We could not have made this purchase of our Nokomis waterfront home without her. Thank you. Dixie

Positive Experience

Jane was wonderful. She listened to our needs and found us the perfect home really quickly. Her knowledge of Sarasota and Manatee counties is extensive so she was able to guide us to the neighborhoods that would most fulfill what we were looking for. We have settled well into our new home and neighborhood of Sandhill Preserve which we truly love. It was a very positive experience. Tom & Estelle

Website Find

I found Jane on the internet through her website. I knew nothing about real estate in Sarasota but after giving her an outline of what was important to me she directed me to the perfect location and home in a very short space of time. Her level of professionalism and acumen with regard to real estate transactions was excellent. Thank you so much. Todd

1031 Exchange

Friends who had bought a home through Jane recommended her to me and my experience could not have been better. Jane introduced me to the right people to facilitate my 1031 Exchange and very soon we had found the perfect condo on Siesta Key. The purchase could not have gone more smoothly. She even helped in finding a Property Management Company on the Key who I could trust with finding a tenant and manage the unit accordingly. Tyrrell

Buying New Construction Isn't Easy!

Jane helped us find our next home and we chose new construction. She walked us through the process every step of the way over a period of 12 months; the time it took for our home to be built. There were some challenges along the way and right up to closing but Jane was always there to reassure us and found solutions as needed. We really don't know how we could have gotten through this without her knowledge, experience and support. We were so fortunate having her as our Realtor, it was a pleasure and a blessing!

Jane did an outstanding job of marketing our home.

She then guided us through the closing process with genuine concern for our interests. Jane's communication skills were top notch and resulted in a smooth, efficient and enjoyable sale. She is a true professional. Christopher and Sandra.

I highly recommend Jane. She made a potentially unpleasant experience comfortable for all parties involved. Susan F.

A Stand Out Realtor

We looked in Sarasota and Osprey for a new home with Jane. We travelled from out of state for viewings. Jane coordinated 22 viewings over two days and though grueling in actually doing all these viewings it got us the house. Jane is calm, detailed and has exceptional follow through in her work. We highly recommend Jane as a realtor of quality just when you need one. Martyn & Vicki
