Moved from SC to FL the end of October 2021. Knew of Michael Saunders & Company from many years ago and chose them to help us look for our next home in Lakewood Ranch. I worked as a Realtor for a time in upstate NY before retiring. We linked up with Lori and we found her to be friendly (and fun to be with!) professional, highly capable, experienced, she listened carefully and researched constantly for us, and worked tirelessly to find us a home in a very stressful, competitive housing market. She knows Lakewood Ranch and surrounding developments well. She was always helpful in pointing out things on property visits with us, helping us to weigh various aspects. Her communications were prompt, and her actions commendably proactive---Lori reviewed a particular property in MLS minutes after it went public, and she immediately booked a visit with us before we knew of this listing and before hearing from us if we wanted to see it. Her instincts and experience proved right, as we liked the neighborhood, street, and house, and we were fortunate to wind up purchasing that property. It's a jungle out there for buyers at present, and Lori managed to find us a home and secure a contract for us in a little over 2 weeks. We are happy to recommend her to others without reservation!
