EXIT King Realty - Sarasota

I had the opportunity to work with Annette as my realtor, and she exceeded every expectation. She handled every challenge—from the sale of our house to the HOA issues—with total confidence and zero hesitation. She stayed on top of everything, kept the process moving fast, and executed every step with precision.

Annette even took on tasks most realtors wouldn’t, just to make sure the sale went smoothly. I live 1,100 miles away, yet she made the entire experience feel easy and stress-free. The house sold in a single day.

If you’re planning to sell your home, I highly recommend Annette. She truly goes above and beyond.

Ahhhh what to say about Michael Jackson... I would like to express my deepest apologies for not writing this sooner... I should have written this review over a month ago when my husband and I finalized our new home purchase... but I guess that just goes to speak on how strongly I feel about Michael Jackson... I mean come on let's be real - who goes back rifling thru over 35 days of email hell for an opportunity to say something NICE about somebody...definitely NOT me... as a matter of fact, I think I have only ever written 2 reviews of anything like EVER, and both were nasty.
If you are still reading, and I sincerely hope that you are because I have yet to say anything worthwhile... Michael Jackson is such a SUPER STAR in the realty business and here are the things that I would like you to know about him... Michael has a phenomenal working relationship with all the people required to get all of the things done...and obviously that comes from treating people right along the way. He was so on top of things from start to finish, that honestly it has probably ruined me for life regarding a level of customer service that I will basically never again experience from anyone/anywhere ever again...and the main reason that I know this to be true - we worked with Michael for almost 6 months and that is a long long time to keep up any kind of charade (and I wouldn't say I am the easiest person to deal with...not the hardest but def not the easiest). He is just a PHENOMENAL realtor AND person. He literally knows all about all the things that you would never even think to ask... before you even have a chance to ask. He is punctual. He is professional. Michael listens... sometimes he was even able to utilize his profound powers of ESP. He is honest... always telling you how it is and 100% of the time he had our back... even when we didn't want to hear what he had to say. He is communicative. Michael takes time to get to know you as a person to really lock into what it is you're looking for and the reassurance to wait to find the perfect home. Michael went above and beyond to make this whole process as smooth as possible, and we couldn't be happier with the level of service from our chosen agent and will forever recommend him to anyone who will listen! Oh - I almost forgot to mention that Michael is very thoughtful... we had a remote closing and on the day of, he went by and fixed a few little things and installed an electric lock for us... things I had mentioned in passing on doing the day after closing... he just went and did it for us... he left a sweet personalized gift for us on the counter just waiting for our arrival. If you are still reading this and have not yet decided to choose Michael Jackson as your real estate agent, I reiterate that you need to do this immediately... Michael Jackson is one of THE kindest and MOST sincere people that you will ever meet and he is by far THE BEST agent that you would ever hope to have in your corner. Period. The End.

Michael is by far the best realtor I have ever worked with. He sold my parents home very quickly in a tough market. He was beyond professional in all regards. I wholeheartedly recommend Michael if you are looking for an exceptional realtor.

Rochelle is so professional and very knowledgeable in the field of Realty. She made the process of selling our lot seamless and extremely easy. She always answered our questions in a timely manner and was always willing to do what we requested. I highly recommend Rochelle for all your home and land selling and purchasing needs!!

Although I had bought and sold homes previously, it had been a very long time.

Annette took me through the process of buying and selling with great patience and thoroughness.
Annette was very thoughtful about my listing value, discussed pitfalls, possibilities & consequences. Very good communication!
Also, importantly guided me thru staging & getting my home ready for sale. Seamlessly
Showing me new properties & working through my purchase! I highly recommend Annette!

Michael was such a positive and uplifting person to work with. There were some hurdles that I would start to panic with, but Michael not only helped me stay calm but also ensured I understood every step.
I can not thank him enough for not only his professionalism but also being an amazing person.
I would recommend to anyone looking to buy a house to trust not only Michael, but his entire team he has.
I can only give a 5 star rating (that all it will let me do) but i wish i could significantly higher.

I cannot recommend Michael enough! From start to finish, he was an absolute pleasure to work with. Always friendly, always answering the phone, and incredibly quick to find any answers or information I needed. His knowledge of the market and attention to detail made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Amazing customer service combined with deep expertise — truly one of the best in the business!

I was very happy with Michael, he was there for me all the way, Thank you again !!

From the moment I first met Michael Jackson I felt like he was totally devoted to me and my property. The pics he took were professionally framed. Michael made the paper work easy for this computer challenged old lady. He gave me plenty of notice prior to the multiple showings and he gave up many weekends for open house showings too. Very pleased because these are challenging times to sell houses.

I wanted to give a stellar recommendation for Linda Donath who help me locate a condominium to purchase. As my agent, I asked a lot of Linda and she came through each and every time. She first began by sending me an email every day with potential purchase options based upon my wants and needs, this gave me a great opportunity to get familiar with the market. Secondly, we went through the normal customer looking at properties exercise, but she went way beyond that. Once we narrowed down my top properties I was interested in, she ran detailed analytical reports which helped me to further understand if I was getting a great value on my purchase. Once I analyzed the reports she headed off any issue that I might come up against or needed to know to close the property. Linda is very thorough, analytical and detailed. I highly recommend Linda to anybody that is looking to make a real estate purchase.

Michael helped me sell my home of 31 years in a very challenging environment for sellers.
His caring nature, expertise, and attention to detail made the process as seamless as possible.
If you need an agent that will calmly guide you through one of life's most stressful events (and soothe your family members!) then Michael is your guy.
5 stars all day long!

I have known Mary for several years. Not only is she professional, she cares! Due to my travel schedule, I needed to find a house in four (4) days to purchase. She delivered!

I would recommend Ms. Revell to anyone looking to purchase. She will work non-stop to assist you with your needs.

As I first time homebuyer, I had no idea where to even start. Michael was wonderful, very helpful, extremely knowledgeable and kept me updated every step of the way. I never felt like I have no idea what I am doing. I had great experience working with Michael and would highly recommend him.

Rochelle recently led our efforts to acquire a residential building lot for our home building business. She went above and beyond, including doing a lot of "knocking on doors". At all times she was completely professional and was very diligent in meeting our needs. I would certainly recommend to anyone who is looking for an exceptional representative!

Rochelle represented Lumina Homes in our site selection for the first "beta" design of homes for South Florida. Her local knowledge and on the ground work created a great opportunity for Lumina in Venice, FL.

Rochelle was a true gift to us .She went above and beyond anything we could ever ask for. We live in Virginia and she made things so easy and was so patient with us. She sincerely seems like a friend .She kept us updated on the hurricanes while we were in the process of selling. We have had dealings with many realtors here in Virginia, we have never had anyone to compare to Rochelle

Michael was great! From the very beginning, the first phone call all the way to the closing, was the easiest process I’ve ever had in purchasing a home. This was an out-of-state purchase and he explained all the home and insurance requirements and all of the Florida laws and regulations. At no time during the process did I feel pressured to buy my home. Michael went above and beyond by conducting extra research on all of the properties that we were considering. I know for a fact that if I ever need to buy a home, I will choose Michael.

Michael was great to work with. My wife and i have bought a few homes over our 30 years of marriage. And by far Michael has been the best realtor that we have worked with. I would recommend him to anyone in need of purchasing a home. Working with Michael has been a pleasure.

Michael was great! We were pleasantly surprised how easily he walked us through the home buying experience. He was always there to answer our questions no matter how big or small. He was very prompt in all of our dealings and we couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. You won’t be disappointed with Michael Jackson.

It was so great to work with Erika. I had many questions, and she answered them all very quickly and in detail. She helped me through the whole process. She is amazing, professional. I highly reccomend her.

Robert is easily one of the best agents in the business. Always helpful and honest, he made sure we found the right home for our family of four. Robert's knowledge of the market, coupled with his guidance of the home buying process, as well as experience in home renovations, greatly contributed to helping us find a wonderful home. Robert did it all with patience, perseverance and a smile on his face.

I highly recommend Rochelle Paquin for her outstanding assistance in helping my family secure our new home. Rochelle's professionalism, dedication, and attention to detail made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Her expertise and proactive communication ensured we found a home that exceeded our expectations.

We are grateful for Rochelle's exceptional service.

Joan is a very pleasant person to work with, has a great sense of humor and nothing is ever a bother. She is extremely efficient and on top of everything.! She was able to answer all of our questions, relay communications to all parties very quickly and followed up on any concerns we had within minutes. Impressive! Joan made purchasing a home easy and we greatly appreciated all her time and assistance. Thanks Joan! You are amazing!

Sharon did a great job with the sale of my house. Knowledgeable, professional & made the whole process quick & painless. Good at her job & it shows in the details. Very easy to work with. Highly recommend.

Amber is prompt , considerate & honest. (rare qualities these days) She kept me aware of any developments with the sale of my house. The bonus is a great personality. This is the 2nd time I've used EXIT Realty- they don't disappoint.
