It was a pleasure working with Linh Pham throughout my journey of finding a property in Florida. I have never worked with a realtor who was as patient and knowledgeable as Linh.
Linh is not only an excellent realtor but also a person of great character. She provides honest recommendations and opinions, which are incredibly helpful for buyers like me who are not local to the area. She gives buyers plenty of time to think things through and never rushes them into making decisions.
She is my realtor in FL for life! Thank you, Linh! You're the best!

Jim is excellent.

He goes above and beyond. His knowledge of real estate and the current processes is exceptional. He brings information to the table that you would not think of as a buyer or seller. During the process he will call, email and communicate to all parties.
I would recommend Jim to anyone that would like a stress free and reliable real estate transaction.

We are so grateful to have found such an amazing realtor to help us sell our home. We had a difficult time finding someone who truly seemed willing to help, but then we met her, and everything changed.
From beginning to end, she made the entire process feel smooth and manageable. She was always there when we needed her, kept us informed, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. Most importantly, you can genuinely tell that she cares—not just about selling a house, but about the people she is helping.
Selling a home can be stressful, but having someone like her by our side made such a difference. We truly appreciate everything she did for us and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, dependable, and genuinely cares about her clients.

We had an incredible experience working with Brigette Marcus and cannot recommend her highly enough.

Before working with Brigette, another realtor had essentially told us that we had no chance of selling our home in its current condition and that our best option was to rent it out until we could afford to make the necessary improvements. Brigette came in with a completely different approach. She helped guide us through the renovations and improvements that would actually make a difference, helped us get the home ready for the market, and then did an outstanding job listing and marketing it.

Within just a few days of going on the market, we had multiple offers, this during a time when we kept hearing that the market was down and that homes simply weren't selling.

Brigette was also fantastic with communication throughout the entire process. She was extremely responsive, kept us informed, helped us understand our options, and guided us through evaluating multiple offers without ever making the process feel overwhelming.

What impressed us most was that she didn't just tell us what couldn't be done. She helped us come up with a plan, execute it, and ultimately achieve a result that others had told us wasn't realistic.

If you're looking for a realtor who is responsive, knowledgeable, proactive, and willing to actually help you figure out how to get your home sold, we would absolutely recommend Brigette.

Working with Desiree to sell my home was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Selling a house can be a stressful process, but Desiree made every worry disappear. Their deep knowledge of the local market, fantastic marketing strategy, and constant communication kept me informed and confident the entire time. Thanks to their expert negotiation skills, we received a fantastic offer and closed smoothly. We could not have asked for a better partner and recommend Desiree to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

Socha was the perfect realtor for us. She is attentive to details and is most thorough in all aspects of the process. I have very analytical characteristics and appreciate her approach. It is all about the details. Her knowledge and experience were reassuring and necessary because when we experienced any surprise setbacks or hurdles, Socha remained calm and created a path of solutions every time it occurred. She was great to work with and is outstanding in her job and performance. I would recommend Socha to anyone considering buying or selling their home.

After a very disappointing experience with another realtor, working with Julie Willett was a breath of fresh air. From the very beginning, Julie restored our confidence with her professionalism, honesty, and dedication. She listened to our concerns, kept us informed every step of the way, and made us feel like we were her top priority.

Since we were no longer living in the area, Julie took care of everything for us. She went above and beyond to make the entire process as easy and stress-free as possible, giving us complete confidence that our home was in good hands.

Thanks to Julie’s expertise and hard work, our home sold quickly and for full asking price. Her knowledge of the market, attention to detail, and outstanding communication made all the difference.

If you’re looking for a realtor who is trustworthy, responsive, and genuinely cares about her clients, I wholeheartedly recommend Julie Willett. We are incredibly grateful for everything she did for us and wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again.

Julie was my strength throughout the selling process. I called on her every time something went wrong like the pull chain on my lanai ceiling fan getting stuck. She was so kind and accommodating. She put herself out to help me and encourage me when things looked bleak. Most of all, her marketing was as over the top
We got an offer in 6 days. Julie is energetic and positive, two traits that I really appreciated. Her professionalism is top notch. I couldn’t give Julie a higher recommendation. She is exceptional.

Brandon is beyond exceptional. He is patient and understanding, yet efficient and to the point to get your business query's solved. Brandon made my first home sale stress free, as he resolves issues before they even come to you. His intelligence and understanding in real estate gives you full confidence from beginning to the end. Thank you so much Brandon!!!
Brett Hagberg recommends Barry Dunn
Buyer Jul 1, 2026
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Barry did a great job for me from start to finish To begin with, he went well out of his way to work around my crazy schedule as I was traveling back & forth between FL & NY. I know that wasn't ideal or easy for him

He also never complained about the number of houses I looked at (some of them multiple times), and there were many. I estimated being inside nearly 60 after dismissing dozens for other external reasons. However, he did nudge me back on track when I - often - started going off the rails! Importantly, Barry didn't hesitate to give me honest assessments of the homes we looked at.

I had a lot of questions going through this process, some procedural, some general, and some specific to a particular property. He never failed to get me an answer.

Overall, I have no complaints, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Barry Dunn to anyone looking for a home on the beautiful Gulf Coast of the Free State of Florida!

Nancy Vigna was an absolute pleasure to work with. Nancy was recommended to me and the entire experience was exceptional. I was out of state, selling a family home in an estate sale. Dealing with the grief from a death, a home full of belongings and the sale of a home that had been in the family for more than 50 years was overwhelming. Nancy was professional, compassionate and went well beyond what was required. The home had years of deferred upkeep, yet she emphasized the positive to both me and in the listing. She had researched the comparable properties in the area and helped me to list it at a reasonable price. Nancy brought in a photographer who took pictures and quickly got the home on the market. After two days of showings I had 18 offers. She then checked out the financial viability of each offer. Nancy explained the terms of each so I could make a decision. She negotiated with the best offer, going over asking price and the house went under contract. Nancy found a gentleman who handled estate sales and home clean outs which allowed me to return home. She continued to check on the property, estate sale and met with individuals needing to get into the house. Most importantly to me was she kept in communication with me throughout the entire process. If problems did come up she made recommendations, facilitated in my absence and followed up. Honestly Nancy went beyond what was expected and made what could have been a difficult situation, a positive one. I highly recommend Nancy Vigna to anyone that is buying or selling a home. You can be assured that she will represent your interests.

Shawn was invaluable in helping me with my home purchase. Over the past ten months, Shawn was a tremendous resource as I was looking for a new home long distance. He provided appropriate listings to review, feed back and information about homes I was interested in and of course negotiating a contract through the day of closing. Shawn provided great resources for all the moving parts of a home purchase and even helped with some things after the deal was closed.

I can’t speak highly enough of Shawn’s knowledge and the help he provided. I would highly recommend his expertise and services to anyone buying or selling a home.

Raena was both professional and friendly. She carefully explained the complications of selling our two undeveloped lots in two different Florida counties. After our first meeting face to face, she kept the communication going long distance in a competent and prompt manner. Selling our property while we were living in another state can be anxiety ridden, but Raena handled all with her friendly expertise.
