I recently worked with Kathy to purchase a home in the Lakewood Ranch area. My experience with her from start to finish was excellent. Her knowledge of the area, her quick and clear communications, and her general real estate expertise made things super easy for me. Her quick responsiveness helped me be able to move swiftly once I found my home. I would recommend Kathy to anyone needing an agent in LWR/Sarasota/Bradenton.
My wife and I are looking for a home in Florida and Kathy acted as our realtor looking for the perfect home. Kathy was excellent in so many ways, she knew so much about the area and acted as an advisor to us in all aspects of the search. She wasn't pushy and was most concerned we found the right home in a perfect location at a fair price. We have lived all over the world and usually looking for a house is a chore but Kathy made it an absolute pleasure. If you are looking for a Realtor that really helps in every aspect of the move we would highly recommend Kathy as the BEST we have ever worked with.
Wonderful working with Kathy Barrie at Michael Saunders to find a home to escape the cold winters in the northeast! It was challenging for us to do our search remotely but Kathy worked with us to really understand our requirements and find homes that suited us. We finally selected one after several virtual visits and Kathy did a great job handling the contract and closing process. She also helped us find a few contractors who are working with us to make our new home our own. Kathy was willing to go above and beyond to make this experience go smoothly and we would highly recommend her!
Kathy was a true pleasure to work with. Her Knowledge & Commitment is what helped us sell our house quickly in a very challenging market. Her flexibility and determination were a real guidance during an extremely stressful period, we listed when the market had just turned for the worse. From constant communication to her ability to resolve every obstacle is what truly sets her apart. When you have a professional so personally involved in the process, you end up considering them a friend and that's what Kathy has become to us.
Our experience working with Kathy was excellent. She was responsive and a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. We have also reached out (frequently) to ask for help on resources post sale and she has always responded quickly and provided great contacts for us to work with.
Her dedication to us before ,during and after the sale we have never experienced from other agents when buying property Highly recommend her to be your realtor
We talked with Kathy Barrie prior to our arrival in Florida on a vacation about looking at some houses. She sent us some information in the mail about the Lakewood Ranch area which was very helpful and interesting. We chatted back and forth about what we were thinking about as far as homes. Upon our arrival Kathy spent a couple of days taking us to new builds in the area that met our criteria. She was so professional and knowledgeable about the areas. Her sweet and fun personality made it easy for us to talk to her. She was able to give us some good ideas and helped us understand the housing market in the area. We have not made any decisions as yet as we are still trying to decide where we want to have a winter home. However, Kathy continues to keep us informed about houses that come on the market. We highly recommend Kathy for your realtor needs.
We had many choices for agents in Lakewood Ranch to sell our home and we chose Kathy Barrie. The long and short story is that she was fantastic! From pre-listing to post close she was honest, attentive, communicative, and knowledgeable. She knew how to market our style of home and our neighborhood. When the buyers of our home came through her, she represented both sides with integrity and ease. She is a mixture of midwest sensibility with coastal sophistication. The entire experience was what should be expected from a real estate transaction. Her brokerage rounds out the value package with excellent title company services and the friendly and helpful staff of Michael Saunders and Company.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Kathy during the purchase of my home, and I couldn't be more impressed with her exceptional service. From the very beginning, Kathy displayed an incredible level of professionalism, dedication, and expertise. She took the time to understand my needs and preferences, ensuring that every step of the process was smooth and stress-free. What truly set Kathy apart was her attention to detail and commitment to finding the perfect home for me. She provided valuable insights on market trends, neighborhood options, and even the smallest details that made a significant difference in my decision-making process. Her negotiation skills were outstanding, securing a deal that exceeded my expectations. Throughout the entire process, Kathy was always available, responsive, and supportive, making sure I was well-informed and comfortable with every decision. Her knowledge of the market and genuine care for her clients are truly unmatched. I highly recommend Kathy to anyone looking to buy a home. She made what can be a challenging experience an absolute pleasure, and I am incredibly grateful for her exceptional work.
Kathy was a pleasure to work with. She was responsive to all our requests and questions and got back to us quickly. She has continued to offer her time in answering questions beyond our home purchase. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home.
Kathy is by far the best real estate agent we have ever used. After just one meeting she knew exactly what we were looking for. As a result she found us the perfect home & development in no time at all. Would highly recommend her.
Kathy is the best real estate agent for luxury properties in Lakewood Ranch and Sarasota. She was professional from start to finish. The process started with detailed explanation of all paperwork. Then she had a photographer, videographer and drone operator take amazing photos of my property. She knew everything about my community (The Isles by Toll Brothers). She had flyers and maps and other information for each showing. My place looked like a model home. We had dozens of Zillow saves and showings started the next day. The offers followed quickly and we accepted. Kathy kept working. She was there for every inspection. She recommended contractors for a few minor repairs. Every aspect was smooth sailing. I highly recommend Kathy if you want someone to market your home like it was hers. Shelley Bryant

Her responsiveness, flexibility, and professionalism are why she is my go to realtor in the Sarasota Market!
