Why Our Practice Is
"Referral-Driven" |
...Referred clients
are the very best clients. They're fun to serve. They become good
friends. And they refer others just like themselves. What could
be better! Our goal is to become a 100% referral business. But we
can only accomplish this with your help. The next time you're on
the phone with a friend...or responding to a nice email, why not
mention our name and number, or simply refer people to our web site
for information about buying, selling or renting a property. It's
a win-win for everyone. Thanks for thinking of us!

A New Restaurant for Manasota Key!

We are really
excited about some recent activity on Manasota Key! The building
across the street from our office, which has been vacant for
several years, finally has a new owner who's planning to open a
seafood restaurant/bar on December 1st. Barbara DuMont, who's from
Maine, has been busy renovating the restaurant and landscaping the
exterior. In addition to serving seafood classics, "Flounders"
will feature live Maine lobster in a casual setting right across
the street from the beach. Make sure to check it out the next time
you visit!
