Florida Gulf Beach Real Estate

Hello Tom,

I and Kanak along with our kids want to sincerely thank you for your gracious hospitality when we were in Clearwater. The houses you showed us as well as info. you provided was excellent.

Tom, I just want to tell you that I have dealt with a few Realtors in past. Some are very aggressive and some are not. The way you deal with your clients have really impressed both me and my wife. Just right amount of information with total honesty - No bending of the facts to persuade us in the wrong direction. I think that is the way to do business and you are an ideal Realtor in our opinion.

Sincerely,
Mitesh Patel

Tom & Lisa,

It was a wonderful experience working with you. We wanted to find that second home and you helped us make that dream come true. You worked as a team and made sure every detail was covered. You put in a lot of hours before we arrived and then continued to give us 110% of your time in the 3 days of our stay making it possible for us to find that perfect home. We consider ourselves blessed to have found such a wonderful Realtor... Thanks again!

Ben Bowerman and Kathy Mackiewicz

Dear Tom and Lisa:

Because of your quick and thorough review of the market, I am now the proud owner of a great condo in Indian Shores. Even quiet Tom calls it "sweet".

Your ability to line up properties for me to visit on less than a week's notice was critical to my success. As you know, several of the condos you showed me fully met my criteria. I'm confident my family and friends will be comfortable at my new condo.

Thanks again for your friendly and professional help. You make a great team.

Century 21 Coast to Coast

636 South Gulfview Boulevard

Clearwater Beach, Florida 33767

Dear Mr. McPherson:

This letter is to inform you of the great admiration and appreciation I have for two of your associates at Century 21 - Lisa Bodie and Tom Slaughter. These two extraordinary people recently helped me sell my condo and find my new home in Seminole, after showing me several houses.

I had the good fortune of having Lisa and Tom find me a condo six years ago in Belleair, which was perfect for my needs at that time. I was impressed with their promptness, kindness and patience then, and knew I wanted to work with them again. The Belleair condo sold in three days and Lisa fought to get the appraisal value raised in order to get a better price for it.

For my new home, I told Lisa and Tom my price range and what I wanted - and their good works found it. Anytime I telephoned them, someone answered or returned my call within the hour. That alone puts them in a category well above many selling agents. Both Lisa and Tom were always good-natured, helpful in offering good advice and sound ideas, and never pressured me. I was made to feel that I was their only client. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone.

Gratefully yours,

Foster H. Diehl

We ended up with a beautiful condo with a beautiful water view, and miraculously closed in 4 business days! We never would have gotten it done without your efficient and fast work & your excellent communication with us. Thanks so much.

My father-in-law asked me to say Thank You very much for the way you handled his condo sale. It is difficult being an owner and being so far away during the time the condo is for sale. You folks went the extra yard and helped us greatly.

So thanks again for your professional manner in the sale of the condo.

Cordially,
Ken Froberg

We are writing to thank you for all your assistance and dedication in helping us find and settle on our new condo.

We have bought and sold five homes previously and this is the first time we have actually enjoyed doing it! The time and effort you put into helping us was incredible. You were always professional and never too busy to answer questions or show property. You were very knowledgeable which was extremely helpful to us since we live in New Jersey.

We thought we were very lucky to have come upon your website but realized that the real luck was in meeting and doing business with both of you. We think the biggest compliment is when customers feel satisfied enough to recommend people to others. We constantly suggest to friends that are interested in looking at homes in Florida to contact you. We hope that Century 21 realizes what an asset you both are to their company.

Best Regards,

Hi Tom & Lisa.

The money cleared into our account yesterday.

We want to thank you for your professional service, for helping us on every
angle, for keeping us updated from 1,400 miles away, and for a great
unforgettable home sale experience.

Thank you so much.

Larry & Carol Duhart

My experience with you both has been very positive, beginning with my inquiry via your website. I'm sure you receive many inquiries and it must be difficult to determine who is a serious buyer versus a "tire kicker". Nonetheless, you responded quickly and efficiently to my request.  It was your attention to detail and responsiveness that led me toselect you as my Realtor.

We are now redecorating and preparing to enjoy our new vacation home.  I would wholeheartedly recommend your services to anyone looking for waterfront property. Thanks again, and best wishes for continued success.

Please accept this as our appreciation for the professional manner in which you conducted the sale & purchase or properties in Indian Rocks Beach and Indian Shores for us. We are completely satisfied with the transactions and the way you both were always available to answer our questions and follow through on our requests.

I know that we will stay in touch with you and will recommend your services to anyone seeking real estate advice and highly motivated professional service in your area.

Again thanks,
Joan & Jesse LoRe

I've had to sell many properties in my lifetime, and I want you to know that I've never had an agent as tireless and hard working as you! Anyone who employs you as his agent will be thoroughly pleased.

As I meet people who need a Realtor I'll give them your name and phone number.

Recently Bob Lakins and I had the wonderful experience of working with Tom and Lisa in the purchase of a condo in Belleair Beach, FL.

Living in Tennessee we needed to find a Realtor that was knowledgeable about the area, reliable, and trustworthy. As I was searching the Internet for properties I accessed their web site. The site was far superior to any of the other sites I visited, and let me tell you I visited many, many sites. From their first e-mail response I knew Tom and Lisa has the qualities we were looking for. They worked diligently to find a condo that met ALL of our requirements. Their direction as a buyer's agent and knowledge of the market saved us $2000!!!

I have purchased real estate before and NEVER have I had an experience this enjoyable. Tom and Lisa listened to everything we wanted and pointed out things that we had not considered. The most impressive thing about Tom and Lisa was their sincere efforts to help find the property that was best for us. They were more interested in making sure we would be happy after their job was done than just getting a sale.

Not only are they excellent Realtors they are really nice people! If I can ever refer anyone to a Realtor in Florida it will be to Tom and Lisa.

Hill & I were extremely pleased with the outstanding job you did in selling our condo within a two week period of time. Needless to say your actions were in marked contrast to our other Realtor who had our property for almost two years!

Congratulations and best wishes to a professional team that can't be beat!

I am writing to express, on behalf of myself and my wife Karolyn Snyder, our admiration and gratitude for the skill and care with which Tom Slaughter and Lisa Bodie helped us to make an excellent purchase...

We have not really had a great deal of experience working with real estate people, but at least twice we have felt poorly served and less than enthusiastic about the agents with whom we were dealing. In our experience, the service that we enjoyed from Tom & Lisa was well beyond the "norm" and we shall always feel fortunate that these two wonderful agents came into our lives...I hope that we can pass our good feelings along to friends who are looking for Realtor services.

I am writing to let you know what a wonderful job Tom Slaughter and Lisa Bodie did in finding us the "home of our dreams".

When we arrived to house hunt, Tom met with us, showing us over 23 homes in a 4 day time span. He was wonderful, patient, and very informative on every home shown.

I can't put into words the time, patience and professionalism shown to us by Tom and Lisa. They are two truly wonderful, professional Realtors who would be an asset to any company.
