We recently had the pleasure of working with Jo Rutstein and Hilary Souza while looking for a second home in Sarasota. Both were very professional and extremely well-prepared about each listing we chose to preview. Both were very knowledgeable and very flexible with their schedules to accommodate us, as we were only in town for the weekend and had to make the most of our short time there. Both shared valuable insight about Sarasota and the surrounding areas. Being long distance, inspections and closing could not have been smoother. We look forward to making our new house “our” home. We would highly recommend them for all of your Sarasota real estate needs without hesitation!
“I highly recommend Jo Rutstein for the great job she did for us in selling our Longboat Keycondominium. Jo and her team were extremely knowledgeable about the local real estate marketand they were very organized and always accessible. Jo showed great understanding andcompassion when handling the emotional aspects affecting elderly owners selling their residence.All the assistance Jo and her assistant Hilary provided to us when preparing the unit for sale andwhile completing the post-offer tasks made all the difference for us as out-of-state sellers.”
“Jo and Hilary are a class act! Warm and friendly yet thorough, and the consummate professional.We were happy to do business with them as our advocates and thrilled to recommend them whomay be seeking assistance in the purchase or sale of property.”

Jo and Hilary were great about communicatingthroughout the whole process, especially during the inspection, walk-through and pre-closephases. I would definitely use them again.”
“Top-notch customer service. Jo and Hilary left no stone unturned in selling our house, in two daysat list price. It all happened so flawlessly and fast that we barely had time to blink.
