Years of Combined Experience
Our story is one of passion, innovation, and unwavering commitment to luxury real estate, making dreams come true for our customers and setting new standards in the industry. Twenty years ago, in the sun-kissed state of Florida, our luxury real estate team embarked on a journey that would redefine the essence of professionalism in the luxury property market. What began as a small, ambitious venture has flourished into a powerhouse of luxury real estate brokerage practice, handling hundreds of transactions encompassing land, resales, new developments, and high-end investment properties. Our team's deep-rooted knowledge of the industry and the local markets has been the cornerstone of our success. As we navigated through the ever-evolving landscapes of luxury real estate, our expertise became a beacon for those seeking the lifestyle that they deserve.
Our journey has not just been about selling properties; it's been about building a robust, interconnected network that spans locally and globally. We've cultivated strong relationships with contractors, architects, engineers, city council members, government officials, attorneys, fellow brokers, agents, vendors, partners, advertisers, designers, and, most importantly, a diverse clientele of homeowners, sellers, buyers, and investors. Embracing the digital age, we've harnessed cutting-edge technology software, integrating digital marketing, customer relationship management, social media strategies, digital documents, email marketing, and file hosting to drive unparalleled results. Living, working, and playing within the communities we serve has not only given us unique insights but has also fostered a deep love for what we do.
We moved to Sarasota, FL from Texas in 2021 and Janette has held our hand every step of the home buying/selling way. Her and Johnny were always available to answer questions, meet us for showings and offered great advice. We always felt taken care of and that they had our best interest at heart. My husband and I would recommend them to anyone looking at buying or selling a home. Extremely professional an...
Top notch!!! If you are looking for someone that is honest, professional and truly expert in the real estate industry. Look no further! This team helped me sell a property that was very close to the original asking price. Thanks again to John and Janette for all your hard work and made the whole transaction seamless and smooth for me.
Janette and John worked diligently to get our home under contract and sold quickly. They are very pro-active, friendly, knowledgeable and responsive. I highly recommend them for your real estate needs, you won't be disappointed!
Janette did exactly what she promised from start to finish. She went above and beyond in terms of service. Lots of realtors out there making promises, but a lot fewer who make good on them. I’m not easy to please, but I’m very pleased that I used Janette for this sale!
Janette and John were amazing! I was selling a condo remotely, which I figured would be tricky, but they handled everything. The listing photos they had done were beautiful, and they got an offer a couple days after the listing went live. They made everything straightforward and were great communicators. If you are buying or selling in the Sarasota area, these are the realtors to go with.
Janette, John, and their team worked very hard to find the right buyers for our property in a short amount of time. We were pleased with Janette’s professionalism and care during the sale of our home!
We have worked with Janette quite a few times. We work on the east coast of Florida, so when we have clients interested in the west coast, Janette is always our go-to! We know our clients will be in great hands and that she will get the job done!
Janette and John were both amazing to work with and we would highly recommend them! They were so quick and efficient with sending us listings within hours after we met, they understood our timeline and urgency and were so accommodating, friendly, and knowledgeable! They have lots of connections, which helped us to be able to walk through lots of properties very quickly, some of which we never would've be...
Janette has been a trusted advisor going above and beyond what you would expect from a Real Estate agent. She identified a potential property, physically met and worked with the builder on my behalf, and negotiated the best deal around when the market was in very high demand. She spent countless personal time making sure the property was secured for me when demand for houses in FL extremely outstripped s...
Janette was awesome! Our realtor, a colleague of Janette's, passed suddenly right after the agreement of sale was signed, Janette stepped up without skipping a beat! We are in New Jersey and were buying in Florida. Janette and her assistant Nancy did all the leg work on the ground and the purchase was a smooth transaction!! What a great team!
I could write a book on how fantastic and professional Janette was in finding us a dream house. She listened to what we were looking for. She brought listings to us and did not have us do the searching. Janette found the perfect home and guided us all the way to the closing. I highly recommend Janette Schafer.
Janette and John, are hands down the best. They were on top of everything. Always available to answer questions. Their professionalism and attention to detail are unmatched. If you are looking for a realtor, this is who you need on your side.
Janette is a true professional. Seasoned, efficient, knowledgeable, and well-organized are just a few of the great things I can say about her. The fact that she is funny as hell is just icing on the cake.
Janette was thorough, professional, efficient, and very nice to work with. We got our home on the market quickly and sold the property above of our asking price. I highly recommend Janette and her team.
Great team to deal with. Very professional, polite, and extremely responsive to client needs or concerns.
Great experience buying my new construction property with John! Highly recommend.
