Finding and purchasing a home that will fit your lifestyle can be a challenge and often times stressful. Our goal is to make your home purchase as smooth as possible.

Before you start looking for a home ask yourself a few questions:

• Do you want new construction, late model construction or a fixer upper?
• What amenities are important to you and your family? Golf, Tennis, Dining, Fitness and Wellness Center?
• What type of house do you need? How many bedrooms and bathrooms do you want?
• What features are most important to you? Do you need a home office? Space for home fitness?
• Do you want a pool and plenty of space outdoors?
• Do you wish to live in a gated community?
• What price range are you considering?

Searching for a home in Southwest Florida can be a time-consuming process, especially if you are considering a golf community.  There are more than 150 golf communities between Marco Island, Naples, Bonita Springs, Estero and Fort Myers!

Market analysis is relatively easy, but where do you find true value?  Trick question, “value” has several meanings.  How is the property valuable in real estate terms and how is it valuable to you?  We’ve worked with many many clients over the years and we’ve yet to see two of the same.  YOUR values are unique to you and only you. Our job is to convey how valuable a property is based on the knowledge we’ve gained through experience, education and local market data.
