• “We recently bought our new home in Punta Gorda with your company representing us with a wonderful agent, Elizabeth VanRiper!! Almost four years ago we purchased our first home in Venice with Elizabeth being our agent then as well. Previously to that we worked with her while we still residing in Boston, MA. So we have a fair amount of history with Elizabeth.

  When we decided to move from Venice, there was only one person we wanted to be our agent...Elizabeth VanRiper! She is exceptional at what she does bringing knowledge from all angles. She exudes a positive personality with kindness and she is very professional! My husband and I cannot say enough about her.

  We hope to stay where we are for quite some time, but we will recommend her to people we know that may be relocating in the Sarasota County area, no doubt about it!

  Thank you for having such a delightful and knowledgeable agent on your team! We love Elizabeth!”

   

• “Elizabeth Van Riper knows Sarasota neighborhoods and culture like no one else. After two brief vacations, we moved here from California and needed help finding a home in a dog-friendly community. Elizabeth steered us in the right direction while familiarizing us with all things Sarasota. She even helped us in unexpected ways, like pointing out potential issues with homes we would have overwise overlooked. Elizabeth Van Riper is the best realtor in Sarasota.”

   

• “Elizabeth was an incredibly helpful agent. Not only did she market our home, she helped get it ready for market. Elizabeth got us the handyman we needed, the staging person we needed and when we had permit problems, the lawyer we needed. I'm not sure how we would have gotten through this without her dedication and hard work. We are very grateful.”

• Before our home went public, Elizabeth Van Riper organized a Michael Saunders in-house showing which resulted in 3 offers and a bidding war soon after. Guided by her expertise, we were able to go to contract quickly and navigate the various aspects that arose before closing. With Elizabeth's business savvy and creative input, our home was prepared so that it was buyer-ready. She also suggested that we use a stager, which really helped buyers see the home's beauty and imagine themselves enjoying it. Elizabeth's many other ideas about how to present the home even extended to the garden and how to best showcase our lake view. Her design sense is impeccable and we followed her advice to the letter.

  “Besides her impressive professional and creative abilities, Elizabeth is a caring and lovely person. Selling a home is always riddled with emotions and difficulties, and Elizabeth's sweet and capable nature was a pleasure to rely upon. It has been a pleasure to work with Elizabeth.”
