Whether you’re purchasing your first coastal retreat or adding to your investment portfolio, buying a luxury home in Sarasota should feel exciting—not overwhelming. We’ve created a guided, tech-forward experience that turns complexity into clarity. From the beaches of Siesta Key to the elegance of Longboat Key and the vibrant downtown waterfront, you’ll have a trusted team by your side—expert lenders, experienced inspectors, title professionals, and insurance advisors—all working seamlessly to simplify your purchase. Our goal is to give you the confidence, insight, and support you need to make every decision with ease.
We’ll start with a conversation to define what success looks like for you. I’ll walk through the luxury buying process in Florida, talk timelines, and outline how I’ll help you find—and secure—the right home. You’ll leave our meeting with a crystal-clear understanding of what comes next, and how we’ll get there together.
We’ll connect you with the most trusted lenders in Arizona’s luxury market to help you get pre-approved quickly and confidently. Having a clear budget allows us to focus on the homes that truly fit your goals—and move fast when the right opportunity appears.
Whether you’re searching for a waterfront estate on Bird Key, a golf course home in Lakewood Ranch, or a modern retreat in downtown Sarasota, we’ll craft a personalized search that reflects your lifestyle. Once we’ve found the perfect property, we’ll negotiate strategically on your behalf, handle every detail with care, and ensure a seamless experience from contract to close.
Once your offer is accepted, I take the wheel—scheduling inspections, working closely with your lender and title company, and walking you through every contract and disclosure. I make the process seamless, so you can focus on what matters: your future in your new home.
Long after you’ve settled in, I remain a trusted resource. Need a designer? A remodeler? Help with your next investment property? My network is your network—and I'm always just a call away.
Your journey doesn’t end at the closing table. Tina Hannaford remains a trusted resource long after the deal is done—ready to support you with anything from interior designers to renovation specialists. Whatever you need next, she's here to help make it happen.
Over the years, I’ve developed a particular expertise in homes that didn’t sell the first (or even second) time around. These situations require more than hope—they require a seasoned professional who can identify what went wrong and craft a revised strategy that leads to a successful close.
