Six and a half years ago, we were looking for a house in Sarasota. We were referred to Barbara May from a buyer that worked for a prestigious furniture and design firm in the area. From the first moment that we met Barbara; a few things were obvious. She listened well and she was very knowledgeable about the real estate market in Sarasota. She was honest, straightforward and hardworking. Barbara always greeted us with a smile and she had a great sense of humor. We have been in management and sales for most of our lives and we know for sure that people buy from people they like. We can say without hesitation that we love doing business with Barbara. Soon after we started looking for a house in December of 2019, we settled on a place in Prestancia in South Sarasota. Yes, we moved to Sarasota just in time for Covid! Earlier this year, we decided to downsize and travel more. We closed on our new home on the same day as we closed on our previous residence. Barbara handled both transactions professionally and smoothly, even when there were some "slightly" unreasonable requests. During our three transactions with Barbara, it became obvious that most of the other real estate agents that we encountered learned something from her. Several made comments about how much they appreciated her insightfulness. Michael Saunders is very fortunate to have a person like Barbara that provides Top Shelf service every day. We sincerely thank Barbara and her team for a job well done!

In my business, I work with a lot of different real estate agents. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Barbara May. She is absolutely a very knowledgeable agent. Everything about our experience was right on target. Barbara May is a very strong asset to your company.

I greatly appreciated the efforts of my realtor, Barbara May, in facilitating the sale of my condo in downtown Sarasota. Not only did the unit sell quickly, but I also had multiple offers and it ended up selling for a record high price for a unit of that size at the Orange Club Condominiums.

Three years ago I was set to retire from Washington, D.C. and hired Barbara May at the strong recommendation of a friend based upon his acquisition experience with her. Barbara explained why Sarasota would be a better fit for me than Naples, and the search was on. This commenced a lengthy process due to Coved. Barbara patiently kept me apprised until the climate worked for me. Not only did she produce the perfect home, we were able to strike a transactionthe day before it hit the market. Barbara tilized her wealth of resouces to provide A-Z services. This proved to be invaluable in a city where I had none. There was no end to her attention to above and beyond detail, and I can be a challenge. Ultimatel, I am super happy in Sarasota, and Barbara has become a friend. Not only would I recommend her, I would tell a friend they would be insane NOT to work with her. Why? Because she makes it a fun, positive experience.
