My wife and I met Joey through an email inquiry for an advertised listing. Joey responded quickly and led us through the AMI market. Joey's strong knowledge of the market combined with our "wants list" quickly led us to several property's that met our criteria. Ultimately, we closed on a home with Joey successfully leading us through the negotiation, inspection and closing process, Additionally, Joey has an established list of qualified contractors which has been instrumental for our homeownership needs. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Working with Joey was absolute pleasure from start to finish. He attended all the inspections and had any work that needed to be done taken care of while we were out of state. He was extremely knowledgeable about Anna Maria Island. Joey was always available help when needed & he put us in touch with people to help us maintain our property until we move to Florida. We highly recommend Joey to anyone looking for a dedicated, professional, and effective realtor. Thank you for helping us achieve our goals!"

Tom has sold three (3) houses for us. Three!! Tom is a fixer. All three houses were unique in their challenges. None of them had good comps and none were sold when the market was a “seller’s market”. Tom sells the deal. He seeks to understand the other side, what they need, what their motivations are, so he can present them with the house THEY want. Tom doesn’t twist arms, he isn’t sketchy; he develops relationships with the other side until the deal is made up of unified partners. In every deal Tom got us the highest and best amount possible for our homes. He is present at every showing. He once drove across Manatee County at 11 o’clock at night to ensure a buyer signed on the dotted line so the offer wouldn’t expire. After closings he often buys the buyers a drink to celebrate. Tom does extensive market research on every home so the real value isn’t a “best guess” based on three comps. No two homes are exactly alike. Tom is patient, kind, and firm. He tells the other side “No” in a way that makes them appreciate his honesty and integrity. Tom creates the narrative of each property so it appeals to the right buyers. He is realistic with us about expectations and has consistently exceeded them. The range of properties he is comfortable selling is extreme. He sells multimillion dollar properties and sells $200k properties (if those even exist in our area any longer). Tom is very creative with deal structuring, tools he developed from decades of real estate experience. Before Tom I did not understand the point of Realtors, to be very honest. Now I will not do a deal without one. Sad to say we have moved out of Florida but if we ever have the chance to work with Tom again, it won’t even be a question. Around our house we call him “Tom Prosperous” because of how much money he has made us! During our time with Tom, we never acquired a property but we wouldn’t think of buying without him. Every deal has his full attention and he answers calls, emails, and texts at all hours, easily one of the most responsive people I’ve ever dealt with. If you would like to hear personal details about our work with him, please request my number from Tom. I am happy to remain as a personal reference for his work as long as he practices real estate. You will not regret working with Tom Aposporos. Do yourself a favor, take a load off, and rest easy: Tom will take care of the deal.

Great agent to work with! Working with Mary Anne was an absolutely amazing experience. Her combination of responsiveness, and genuine care made a stressful process feel surprisingly smooth. Throughout the entire process, her communication was outstanding – she was always available for questions, explained each step in clear, simple terms, and kept me informed. When small issues popped up along the way, she stayed calm, solved problems behind the scenes, and made sure nothing derailed the closing. On top of her professionalism, she is warm, patient, and genuinely kind – I never felt like ‘just another client.’ I would recommend Mary Anne without hesitation to anyone looking to buy or sell – if you want someone who is knowledgeable, honest, responsive, and truly on your side, she is the realtor you want in your corner.

When we bought our first home in Florida, Katie as our realtor took us through the whole process from beginning to end. She‘s very knowledgeable, has a great way with people and works very hard to ensure that her clients are happy and get the best deal possible. We recommend Katie 100%!!
