I am so pleased to have found 2realtiors that actually care. Kathleen and Christine have been amazing! After 1 phone call Kathleen sent me a listing to look at on my phone. Because she. listened to our needs and budget they had the house for us. We are now living in our new home and totally loving it . This house and us are a perfect match! I would only recommend these 2 realtors. I am forever grateful to them. They really helped us and made this move so easy. Thank You, Kathleen and Christine!

We took about three years to investigate the Venice area for purchasing a home. Kathleen stayed with us the entire time, showing us multiple properties. She helped us offer on a few until we settled on the one we purchased. She made inspection and closing easy. Even after closing she gave us lots of helpful information for contractors and services for our house. I would recommend her to a friend who was purchasing a home.

Dawn and her team were so awesome. Dawn was such a help with all the little details involved with the sell. We live out of town and she was always available to be present when we could not. Thank you so much Dawn, we truly appreciate all of your hard work. 😊

Celeste is a great realtor. She is very knowledgeable and easy to work with. Communication with Celeste was always timely and clear. She went the extra mile to help ensure that our closing happened as scheduled. We highly recommend Celeste.

I can not say enough about Dawn. She was our 3rd realtor and came to us recommend by a friend. My husband and I were in desperate need to sell because he got a promotion at work that took him out of state. We were defeated and stressed because the other 2 realtors felt our house was almost impossible to sell and didn't want to put in the time and effort. We knew this sale would be a challenge because our house is a year old and our community is still being built. In comes my heroine...Dawn!! She was no nonsense and got right down to business. She didn't lie or sugar coat anything but was 100% optimistic she could get the house sold!! From day one, Dawn hit the ground running. I believe we were under contract in less than a month!! She never once got upset with me with my dumb questions or my stress texts to her!! In a market where realtors are a dime a dozen, Dawn has stood out above the rest!!! If it wasnt for her, I'm not sure where my family would be. Hire her, hir her, hire her. I promise you will not regret it!!! Dawn thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!

Selling a house you love is hard. Celeste was with me every step of the way… and it took a long time to sell… However, her enthusiasm and commitment to me and the sale of my home was always there each day. If you’re looking for a realtor, I highly recommend Celeste Campopiano. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Celeste for accompanying me on this crazy journey. You’re the best!!!

Jimmy Lopez recommends Don Costa
Dec 7, 2025
Working with Don as my realtor was one of the best decisions I made when selling my home. From day one, he was professional, knowledgeable, and completely committed to getting me the best outcome possible. Don took the time to explain every step of the process, gave honest and strategic advice, and made everything feel smooth and stress-free.

What stood out the most was his communication and attention to detail. He kept me updated throughout the entire process, responded quickly to every question, and handled every challenge with confidence and experience. His marketing strategy was spot-on, and the way he presented my home absolutely exceeded my expectations.

Thanks to Don’s dedication and expertise, my house sold faster than I imagined — and for a great price. If you’re looking for a realtor who truly cares, works hard, and knows how to get results, Don is the one you want in your corner.

Highly recommend!

Kendel is the BEST! she is so thorough and goes above and beyond to make sure the deal gets done. She has been my buyers agent on 2 transactions we closed. We have known each other for almost two years now and its been truly a pleasure getting to know her personally as well. There are not a lot of agents out there that are as knowledgable and forward thinking as she is. Kendel is truly a gem and I can't wait to do more deals with her.

I was very pleased with all Jessica did to sell our house. It was not an easy task. She was creative in her approach, sometimes working with other realtors who had homes for sale in our neighborhood. She was always upbeat, friendly and personable. She is quite knowledgeable in her field. A real pleasure to know and work with.

Kendel did an excellent job helping us purchase our final/forever home. We told her what we were looking for and what our price point was and we were successful! She was very meticulous at reviewing the sales contract and all HOA, mortgage and title documentation so that we did not pay for anything we weren’t supposed to.
I highly recommend Kendel Sailor as your agent, whether buying or selling.

After almost 30 years in the military, and 15 moves, honestly, Kendal is THE MOST thoughtful and professional Realtor I have ever been associated with. From day one, Kendal went above and beyond. It would take days to write up all she did for us, but most importantly, she listened and garnered the information she needed to ensure we got the home we wanted without becoming “house rich but cash poor”. It was the small things that sets Kendal apart from bringing us a cooler of snacks due to a long day of looking at houses, or reading every single line of a contract with only our interests in mind. Always available, always keeping us informed, and always looking out for our interests put us in our forever home. Kendal is a gem and you are lucky to have such a compassionate yet tenacious professional whose sole purpose in our case was to ensure we got what we wanted.

From our first call to Jessica for a site visit to our last call the day of settlement, our experience was absolutely wonderful. We are from Maryland and last January we were going to purchase a different condo in Venice. We had a bad experience with that realtor and we backed out of the sale. We were gun shy because of that disappointing experience but had learned a lot about disclosure. We explained our situation to Jessica and she listened carefully to our concerns. It was smooth sailing from the very beginning. Professional, smart and a commitment to us having a great experience for such a huge adventure, is the best way to describe her. We would recommend Jessica and have boasted about her to our family and friends in Florida and Maryland. We couldn’t believe how easy she made our purchase experience. This was a life long dream for us we have been working toward this for a long time. Jessica made our dream come true. So approachable and kind.
Thank you so very much Jessica.,

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.

Dawn and Jen are the true dream team. Dawn held my hand through the whole process. She is amazing. I never felt more comfortable with a realtor. She was with me every step of the way making sure everything went smoothly. The best experience I've ever had. And what a wonderful person she is. She's my new best friend here in Florida.
Even after the closing she called me in the morning to see how my first night was in my new house.
She gave me my first housewarming gift. Along with a nice bottle of crown royal with a flask to celebrate. EXIT Reality are the ones you want to do business with if you're ever thinking about investing in the sunshine state. I really cannot say enough.But I have to start unpacking my boxes and getting to work. Thanks again Dawn Tillette, I really appreciate you and exit realty.

Jessica never failed to present potential buyers. It was a struggle in a disappointing market but she persevered. She was always so courteous and friendly, it was a great pleasure to interact with her. And the bottom line is, she found a buyer!

Gina Pellegrino recommends Michael Jackson
New Home Owner Nov 5, 2025
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.
