My wife and I purchased a home in Bradenton, FL. We now have a lovely second home in the community of River Strand and I could not have navigated my way through a remote out of state purchase without Amy's tremendous patience and professionalism. I am 58 years old and can honestly say my experience with Amy was as impressive as it gets. To start with her communication back and forth with me was almost instantaneous and always positive, respectful and welcoming. A true "Southern Bell"! No waiting for days for a call back, no pressure sales techniques either. Amy just answered my questions honestly and quickly obtained the answers to questions she did not know. When I asked her for recommendations for other professionals such as Title Company, Insurance, Inspectors etc. they were spot on professional and just as responsive. If you need a realtor in Sarasota area I challenge you to find anyone better. Can't thank you enough Amy. Chris Malena Wolcott, CT
I want to thank you for all the help in our wonderful experience of house selling! You are such an amazing person with so many talents. Your communication was spot on. We always felt like we were the only customer selling our home. You are kind, thoughtful and were very attentive to our every need. The most amazing talent, and not to be forgotten, is your wisdom and ability to make the right decisions. You have provided us with fantastic advice and made our selling experience the best. From my heart to yours, I would like to thank you, as you are the best! Dr. Denise Tarasuk
Amy is a Super Star!! Quick to respond, gracious, intelligent. She makes everything seem easy.
At my first meeting with Amy,before I even retained her as the listing broker,she had already done all the in-depth research, and gave me an estimated list price,based on the market,without improvements..........impressive............how could I not retain her ? Then she came back later with a revised list price,taking those into account. Amy is responsive,charming,really smart,and a professional who knows truly her business at a depth that is exceptional,and that far exceeds my prior experiences with realtors. You have a winner here;it's my privilege to be her client.
Amy was great to work with throughout the process of purchasing our new home. Her attention to detail and concern for our best interests impressed us from day one! We plan to keep Amy Chapman as our real estate rep for any future endeavors, and would certainly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell. Thanks Amy!!!
So far outstanding. Mrs. Chapman is an energetic professional, knowledgeable, and very personable. She is always reachable, flexible and works very hard to satisfy her clients requirements. I look forward to a continued relationship.
In January 2016 my mother passed away in Sarasota, Florida, I was living in Rochester, NY and was made the executor of her estate and was given the task of selling her home. Not being familiar with the Sarasota housing market I was referred to Amy by a family friend (also a realtor) as a good realtor for this market. After Amy and I spoke on the phone she completed an extensive market analysis showing the comparable properties and prices in the area of my mother’s home. She also recommended the best price to sell the home in a timely manner. Amy handled everything from listing to closing and made the process go so smoothly! Throughout the selling process Amy was an invaluable resource for me every step of the way. She was always there to answer my questions and help get the property sold. She also performed an extensive marketing campaign to show the home to the widest audience. I was very impressed with her professionalism and would not hesitate for a moment to refer anyone I know to her in both selling and buying capacities. Amy is a knowledgeable, professional, efficient and pleasant person, all extremely important attributes in her profession. If I ever have the opportunity to either buy or sell a house in the Sarasota area she will again be the first one who comes to mind.
My wife and I met Amy many years ago at the Meadows Country Club. After a couple of years of looking for a condo to purchase in The Meadows, we purchased with her in 2018. In 2022, we decided it was time to sell and immediately contacted Amy to start the process. We cannot say enough praises about her. She makes you feel a part of the team—constant communication on all steps of the transaction, and she takes pride with every stage as if it were her own home. At closing she caught an error on the closing docs which saved us over $1800. Since Amy is a long-time resident The Meadows, she is very knowledgeable of the amenities, the rules and what the community has to offer. Her work is admiral, we respect her expertise, and she made the experience seamless. It basically boils down to one thing: Trust. We have complete trust in Amy and would highly recommend her.
We are writing to inform you how much we appreciated having Amy Chapman serve as our realtor. We feel as if we couldn’t have found a better person to represent us in our search for our permanent Florida home. She really kept on top of things and whenever a problem arose she took charge and got it resolved quickly. Near the end of the process, we were on our way from Illinois with our belongings and hadn’t yet closed on the home and Amy made sure we closed on the anticipated date even though the loan company kept throwing us curveballs. We would recommend her to anyone who needs a realtor dedicated to the home buyer through the whole process which at times can be a trying but rewarding experience. Kudos to Amy!!
As retirees, my wife and I were in the market for a condominium in Sarasota, Florida. As we would be conducting our search from New York, our first priority was to find an extremely hardworking and knowledgeable real estate agent in Sarasota County. We were blessed to have found the person who met all our expectations in Amy Chapman of Michael Saunders & Company, From our first meeting with Amy through the closing process, Amy proved to be the consummate professional who tirelessly searched for a condominium that would meet all of our needs. Finding a property that would accommodate our much loved Labrador retriever was no easy task, and Amy was determined to make the search a successful one. As the new owners of a beautiful condominium in Sarasota we are very pleased and fortunate to have had Amy Chapman as our agent. We highly recommend Amy Chapman to everyone and anyone who is looking for the "right place" for them in Sarasota, Florida. Sincerely, Joe Hinton
We chose Amy to help us with our home search because she moved to Sarasota from the Memphis area just as we were attempting to do. That was extremely important to us because she knew how to bridge the gap between the types of homes that we were used to in other areas of the country and the types of homes available in Sarasota. Since we had to do most of our home search from afar, she took time to go tour homes on our behalf and take video recordings for us to save us the time and expense of traveling to Sarasota to look at each home. Amy is an outstanding communicator, extremely detailed and very generous with her time. Plus, she not only helped us with our home search, but has stayed in touch after our move and helped us with a few items that have come up since closing. The next time we buy or sell in Sarasota there is only one person we will call - Amy Chapman.
Amy helped us achieve a lifelong dream of owning a snowbird home in Florida. She consistently offered great advice, advocated for us during the offer and inspection process, and never missed a beat with communication throughout. We would highly recommend Amy to anyone considering a buying or selling a home in the greater Sarasota area. Five star experience start to finish!
Amy helped us find the house of our dreams. She was always on top of things and helpful with anything I asked for. I appreciate everything she helped us with and I highly recommend her!!!
My fiance and I purchased 2 investment units 6 months a part from each other in Sarasota with a help of Amy. She didn't came through a recommendation , we found her on Zillow and took a chance to work with her. From day 1, she came across very knowledgeable, helpful and professional. We were most impressed with her lightning fast response and follow through. I can't say enough great things about her. She is a person whom will go above and beyond. Highly recommended,it is a pleasure to work with her.
I would rate Amy Chapman 10 if you could rate that high! She is definitely a 5! She has gone way beyond duty working with me on buying my condo! She gets back to me or answers the phone everytime I call. She answers all my questions or finds the answers immediately, I have worked with many realtors in my life and Amy was by far the best! Not even close. I have recommended her to many people and plan on using her again when I need a realtor. I cant say enough about her but you are very lucky to have Amy working for your company! Thomas S. Campbell
Amy was simply a pleasure to work with. She was always prompt, pleasant, and very professional. I had to make an offer from out of town in the evening, and she facilitated that as well as every other part of the process from start to finish. It was clear to me throughout that she was my advocate through and through. Highly recommended!!!
Amy helped us find our condo a little over a year ago. We’ve had some minor issues since then (A/C and such) and Amy has been very helpful in sending us referrals and even making calls to companies for us! If you need a fantastic and reliable realtor, Amy is your gal!!!
My Wife and I have been looking at purchasing a home for years. We attempted to work with a few different real estate agents to no avail. In retrospect, we learned how important it is to have a great team to work with you though the entire process. Amy was definitely the quarterback to our great team. She took the time to listen to our needs and guide us though our first home purchase. Her experience, perspective and professionalism were exemplary! We are very happy with our experience and purchase! A great team makes a world of difference. I would highly recommend Amy to anyone in the real estate market. No question was too small and no obstacle too big. She is a go-getter and will work hard to ensure that your are comfortable and informed throughout the process.
Our experience with Amy was a pleasure. She made everything easy and pleasant. She was very knowledgeable and knew the Sarasota market and area very well. I would highly recommend her!!
Amy was wonderful. She kept me updated on everything that was going on, she responded immediately when I had questions, she stayed on top of the interested parties and was calm but firm when we ran into an issue with my homeowners' association unfairly holding up the sale of my home. My house was on the market for only 11 days. The first offer we received we countered back and forth for a couple of days until we came to an agreeable price and Amy was concerned based on their pre-approval letter that they would not be approved for the amount we agreed on. She reached out to the buyers' lender and found out in fact that they would not. She immediately let me know and we countered another offer we had received and sold the house. Closing was in 30 days and my association needed to have an application, background check and “interview” done before we could close. Their realtor sent over the paperwork but the management company never got the check. Everything came to a halt 4 days before closing and Amy partnered with the buyers' realtor and the title company to try to get everything done by the closing date. Amy continued to follow up with the Title company for almost a week until closing was finally approved. It could have been an incredibly stressful situation for all of us (and was) but she handled it all with grace and calm. I would HIGHLY recommend Amy for anyone looking to buy or sell. She clearly knows the industry and stayed ahead of things at all times.
I am so glad Amy was my realtor. She and Michael Sanders & Company took excellent care of me -- guiding me through my decision to sell my property, marketing it, showing it, and getting the highest price possible for it. I was in the Northeast and unable to come to Sarasota during the process. Amy handled everything!!! She is well connected and knows the Sarasota marketplace. Kudos Amy and thank you!
An absolute pleasure working with Amy. I was referred to her by a dear friend who knew our personalities would mesh well. If you need someone who does their job with greatness and personality this is who you choose to represent you.
Amy has been great. She is on top of everything and responds quickly. She loves what she does and males the process easy. Amy is a pleasure to work with.
Amy We wanted to take a minute to thank you for assisting us in fulfilling our dream in Florida. It was a pleasure to work with someone who listened to what we wanted in a house and not what they 'thought' we should have. We especially appreciate the dedication and hard work you did for us: listening to our needs knowing we are new in the area, negotiating the contract, taking the time to go over all the details of getting us settled. You have always maintained the perfect balance of professionalism, good humor, patience, understanding and diplomacy. You have been a true delight to work with on a personal level as well, reassuring us and comforting us through the stressful task of closing on a new construction house. Come the day another move is in our future, we look forward to working with you again and of course we are more than happy to refer friend and family to the best Real estate agent in the area.
When searching for a realtor, I was introduced to Amy based on unanimous positive feedback from existing clients of hers. She really did come as advertised! She made my entire home buying experience seamless and enjoyable from start to finish. I feel she went above and beyond and took a genuine interest in providing complete satisfaction. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, charismatic, attentive professional that not only has the decades of experience but additionally the passion to give you a world class buying experience.
So happy with Amy Chapman! She did the impossible…and helped us secure our first home in Sarasota, Florida during this crazy market. She is not only a knowledgeable and trustworthy realtor, but an amazing person and friend. She thoroughly answered all of our questions during the whole process. If we ever buy another home, she will indeed be our realtor, and we couldn’t be happier that we chose her for our home buying experience!
Amy was referred to us my a good friend and we couldn't be more pleased. She was kind, curtious, clear with her communication. She was dialed into us on a personal level very quickly and didn't try to push into something we didn't want and more importantantly we couldn't afford. Amy made our first home buying experience fun and memorable. We recommend her to anyone.
She was a perfect match for me. Amy worked hard on listing the property, seeing me through the inspection process and marketing my condo. Amy had it sold within four months. I can’t say enough about you fabulous team members and would highly recommend Michael Saunders & Company to anyone wishing to rent, buy or sell on Florida’s beautiful Gulf Coast.
I can't say enough about Amy. She follows through immediately on all issues. It is obvious that she hold herself to very high standards because it is clear in her performance.
Amy was truly a joy to work with her. She was cooperative, hard working, persevering, and the ultimate professional!!!! I would recommend her to my friends without hesitation. HJM
Amy was absolutely amazing!!! She was there to help support and guide through every step. There is no comparison between her and other agents....she is simply the best!!
Amy was great to work with and very responsive. Went above and beyond to confirm that a golf cart would fit in our golf cart garage.
Amy was fabulous throughout the entire process. Reliable, quick to respond, many second efforts on information, and at the same time, very personable.
Experienced, Efficient, Enjoyable, Excellent 5 Stars for Sure! Thanks Amy:)
She is a professional, the type who you never have to worry about getting stuff done. This is the second home I have bought using Amy, that should say something :)
Amy’s knowledge in selling estate property helped me sell my home quickly with no stress. She was relentless in the process and communicated with me constantly. She is a joy to work with.
Definitely a 5 star rating for Amy. Amy was very thorough, responded promptly to all our questions, was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful walking us through the entire process. I will recommend both Amy and your company to any of my friends and associated who are looking to buy property in the area. Many thanks Amy, great job.
Wonderful experience. We took care of everything remotely and can’t thank Amy enough for the time and effort she put into finalizing the deal. If you are looking to get a deal done, she is the realtor for you!
I recently had the best experience with Amy Chapman and David Perkowski! They both went above and beyond normal realtor related responsibilities and were so professional, courteous and responsive. I would highly recommend this team to anyone with real estate needs!!
Our experience with Amy Chapman is much more than excellent. During the process of renting or selling our property we did not have any stressful situation. She took care of all the procedures and handled everything very professionally. We really could lean back and have full trust in her abilities to rent our property or even sell it at a later point in time. I would always choose her as my realtor for later rentals or sales on other properties.
Amy is an outstanding broker. Before we have even met , way before the sale of course, she has done all the research for HOA rules of places I like for HUD loans. Without such , the sale cannot happen. As many places I tell her I have found , or listings she finds , all the required work is done in advance. Many other agents failed at the first meeting.
By far the best. So patient and always honest and upfront with me. On top of the fact that she works fast and is always up to show properties when it's convenient for me.
Amy's response time is very very quick. He upbeat manner comes through even on the simplest emails. It was definitely a pleasure working with her.
My husband Gregg and I just wanted to share how much we appreciate the service we received from Ms. Amy Chapman on our recent sale of our home and then purchase of a villa. From the first meeting with her, we sensed her competency and excellent service skills.Amy listened to our concerns and needs as she very professionally guided us through the process. She gave excellent advice on what to remodel and how to stage our home. We believe her support helped to sell our home in one day for a great contract price! It amazed me how quickly she responded to any questions we had via phone or email. I teased her several times that just because I am a night owl and send late night emails, I didn’t expect an answer until the next day or so. But Amy’s style is to provide quick customer service and she always responded promptly. Amy truly had our interests at heart during the contract negotiations and walk-thru. We highly recommend her.
Amy made the entire process easy, understandable and streamlined. Her passion, expertise and knowledge make her one of the absolute best agents in the country. She brings that enthusiasm to every client and every transaction.
Excellent
Amy Chapman is by far the most professional Real Estate person I have ever met. She is wellEducated in the field and has a great understanding of what people are looking for and what to present. Amy personality is perfect for the job and made our experience the best and I would say it behooves you to keepher on your team as long as you can…! Thank you for the service and we have shared our comments with all of our family & friends for future purchases.
Amy is very professional and one of the best at what she does. We were out of state buyers and she made the process super easy. Always very responsive to our needs and went above and beyond. We would definitely recommend Amy to anyone. She’s awesome! Mark and Kari
This is the 3rd property that I have purchased through Amy. She is absolutely the best!! She is so thorough, knowledgeable, and “on her game”. The entire process was completely stress free. She is truly a blessing! ????
We can’t say enough good things about Amy and the service, support and attention we got from her as sellers. She is the most kind, genuine and professional agent, and just an all around terrific person. Amy managed every facet of our listing and selling process, showed extreme patience with us as long distance owners, and was spot on helping us with market analyses, pricing our house, and marketing it with showings and open houses. We are extremely happy and grateful to have worked with Amy. I would recommend her as an agent to anyone. She is a gem! Thank you so much.
Amy Chapman is the most customer-oriented business person I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with—and a first-rate real estate agent. I feel so fortunate that she was my advocate when I recently bought a house in Sarasota. She first negotiated an incredible price for the house I wanted and then negotiated $7,500 in seller credits, well beyond my expectations. And her customer service didn’t end at the closing. From first seeing the house to closing took less than 30 days thanks to Amy and her team. I can’t recommend her highly enough.
Amy was awesome! She did all that was needed and more to move the sale of our mother's home forward quickly and with a very smooth closure. We highly recommend Amy with her expertise as an agent, willingness to dive in to do what is needed and her bright smile with her positive attitudes!!!
I am writing this testimonial to compliment your company and staff, especially Ms Amy Chapman who has now helped us in both home purchases and one home sale. She is an exceptional individual who makes this process very straightforward and simple. She is an absolute joy to work with and I am sure she has an exceptional team behind her. I would and have strongly recommended to friends and colleagues that if they are in the house for a market in your region then your company and Amy are the people to speak with. Hopefully we will not be selling the new home in the near future but if we do you know I will be sure to come back to yourselves. I wish you and your company every success for the future. Best Regards Rick I.
Amy is a true champion of realtors. Shes very thorough and detailed when describing the property and its amenities. I would recommend her to anyone selling or renting a property as I know and have seen how detailed and professional she is. A++++
We found Amy to be friendly, polite and extremely professional. I have to say that having Amy as our realtor was the best experience I personally have ever had when dealing with realtors either buying or selling my homes. The marketing she did was exceptional as we had a cash contract on our house in 4 days...you really cannot ask for better than that. She continued the process with us through closing and even afterwards always exhibiting professional conduct and EXTREME patience. We respect Amy enough as a realtor to refer our friends to her. It was a very good experience!
We used Amy to purchase our home and had an awesome experience. She was very helpful and quick to respond with anything that came up during the process. So when we were ready to sell that home we knew exactly who we would call. Again everything thing went smoothly. Amy is a hard working realtor.
Thank you Amy Chapman for making selling our home a breeze! You are so knowledgeable and kind. It is a pleasure to know you and do business with you!??
EXCELLENT RATING: My husband and I can't say enough about Amy. Her professionalism, excellent customer service and knowledge of the real estate world of preparing a home for sale, analyzing the market value of your home, working with you to set the sales price, scheduling showings, assisting with a contract and then ensuring your requirements where met at closing. She attended all showings and inspections. During our closing, Amy asked poignant questions to ensure we understood the process and felt comfortable with the sale. Amy also represented us with the villa sales office for our purchase of a new villa. We were so impressed that although the villa was not a Michael Saunder's property she still gave us 100%. During the contract negotiation and walk-thru of the villa, she provided excellent comments and also ensured the things that needed correction in the villa where noted. During this entire process, she called or emailed us on every step during our journey. Amy truly made us feel secure in having her represent us. She is a delightful person to work with, she will listen to your needs and we highly recommend her.
Amy responded immediately to our email requesting more information and was exceptional, arranged a viewing the following day and the contract was signed that same day. Highly recommended.
Amy was such an asset in our search for a new home. We feel like we could not have found a better person to represent us. Being first time home buyers her knowledge of the process was invaluable. She was with us from beginning to end and stayed on top of any potential delays we might have had. We would recommend Amy very highly to anyone seeking a new home.
Amy is definitely 5 stars! We selected Amy based on her knowledge of the area and are very glad we chose her. We weren't in Sarasota for the initial part of the sales process, but Amy gladly took on some of the tasks to prepare our condo for sale. She was extremely knowledgeable of real estate in the Meadows and guided us through the process. Amy reached out to numerous realtors to get multiple folks looking at our condo and we received two full price offers the first day the condo was listed. We have already recommended Amy to several other folks and would definitely use her again.
On a scale of one to ten, our overall experience with Amy was a twelve. As Rachel told me many times when there were tasks to be completed, Amy was “on it”! We completed our visits to potential properties within two days and made an offer on day three. We were in St. Louis, Missouri during most of the time between making the offer and the closing. Amy helped keep the process moving forward smoothly and coordinated all of the inspections and follow-up. The owner of the house was out of the country on the day of close. Amy helped keep the Title Company representative from having a heart attack when a few details needed to be worked out with the owner on the other side of the planet. Over the years we have purchased several homes. This was the smoothest process we have experienced. Amy gets credit for that!
