It is hard enough to get a table during Season, add that with Valentine's Day and you may be eating in next Tuesday!
We did book 2 extra reservations for 2 on Valentine's Day for someone who may have forgotten. One is on Longboat Key and the other is in Sarasota.

Is it the right time to sell?
As most of us are aware the last 2 years were the optimal time to sell because of the crazy concessions buyers were willing to make and the rapid appreciating market. Things have definitely cooled downed in Southwest Florida, but that doesn't mean the market has crashed. As a matter of fact we just listed a home in December that received 10 offers and went for over the asking price. The sellers were able to negotiate post closing occupancy for 3 months while they looked for their next home.
We have noticed that properties properly prepped and staged, professionally photographed and priced competitively are still seeing multiple offers and great terms. The trend of sellers asking whatever number they want and getting it has come to an end. With interest rates hovering around 6% buyers are more calm and calculated than when interest rates were around 3%. This is more balanced market.
If you are thinking of selling in 2023, now may be the time to strategize!
We are honored to be #scouted for the 2nd year in a row! The opportunity to be surrounded by so many other wonderful business owners has been one of the best experiences over the last few years. We have made many friendships and partnerships and joined a national network of like-minded entrepreneurs.
Our buyer held off at the end of last year due to rising interest rates but since realized the amount of money they spent on rent. They decided it was time to purchase a home instead of paying their landlords mortgage!

TESTIMONIALS
We worked with Alexis over a year to find our home.Traveling from New York to Florida, Alexis kept us up to date on listings and was always available to us when we were in town. We couldn't have found a better realtor to help us! We are so happy with our new home and can't thank Alexis enough for all her hard work and help. We definitely recommend her!

My wife and I were introduced to Alexis as our buyer's agent when we started our search for a vacation home in the Sarasota/Bradenton Florida area. Alexis listened to what we were looking for and only showed us homes that met our criteria. We found our perfect home in Bradenton and she helped us negotiate an offer that was accepted. Additionally, Alexis helped us through all the painful steps in preparation for closing - home inspections, purchasing reasonably priced home insurance, etc. etc. etc. Nine months later...we're so happy with our new home and glad we got to meet Alexis. We highly recommend her as a realtor.
