John Schafer

John L. Schafer V is a second-generation real estate expert dedicated to the luxury residential market in Sarasota County with a top-producing Florida Coldwell Banker Global Luxury office in Downtown Sarasota, Florida. Specializing in Downtown Sarasota, West of Trail, Lido Key, St. Armands Key, Siesta Key, Longboat Key, and Anna Maria, John brings exceptional expertise to his customers.

Raised in a real estate-focused family in South Florida, John gained invaluable insights from his mother, Janette, who ran a successful brokerage for 15 years which was purchased by Related ISG, his father, John, with 34 years in the construction industry, and his brother, Justin, a 16-year active real estate investor. This background laid a strong foundation for John's career to thrive.

John's real estate experience includes managing luxury real estate development projects valued at $30 million ranging from 5,000 to 12,000 SQFT in South Florida. His diligence and persistence have earned him recognition as a Rising Star in Real Producers magazine, highlighting him among the Top 500 agents in Sarasota and Manatee County for 2024. John and his mother, Janette, have a combined career sales volume of $325+ million.

Known for providing accurate, real-time information and comprehensive market analyses, John ensures his customers achieve the best possible outcomes considering current market conditions. Once exclusively hired, John takes on the responsibility, obligation, and duty to serve the customer by getting the best price the market will bear at the quickest close between a seller and buyer who will perform.

Born in Baltimore, Maryland, John "retired" at age 1 to enjoy the Florida coastal lifestyle of yachting, fishing, water sports, and year-round baseball activities. He attended Florida Atlantic University, earning degrees in Business Economics and Entrepreneurship. In his free time, John enjoys golfing, yachting, family time, and exploring new local restaurants.
