Testimonials
"When it came time to sell our home, we were extremely pleased with Team Vitale's marketing efforts, their qualified leads and our quick sale."
Dee & Chuck R. Tue May 1, 2007
"I'd like to thank you for your professionalism, advice, due diligence, and "going the extra mile" in making sure that my purchase was completed correctly and quickly. Being an "out of state buyer", I had to put a lot of trust in a realtor to not only represent me in my transaction, but also keep my best interests in mind. Thank you again for all that you have done for me and I'm sure we will work together again in the future."

Foreign National Programs

Hello Leon,

As a foreign buyer you may also want to speak with some professionals which offer services to buyers outside the U.S. Donna Scarlatelli is an attorney specializing in Immigration Laws (including visas, work permits, etc.). Her contact info is: (941) 917-0066 and email: donna@greencards4u.com. Website is http://www.greencards4u.com.

Stella Giudicelli is from Moneycorp. They are a foreign exchange organization which can assist with "locking in" the exchange rate which can otherwise fluxuate daily costing you additional dollars. Her phone # is (321) 559-1050 and email is stella.giudicelli@moneycorp.com.

I have not personally had anyone yet to use the services of these two but they were brought to our attention through our Board of Realtors so feel confident in passing their information along.

Joan Marie Bazo from Coldwell Banker's affiliate Sunbelt Mortgage has assisted with many foreign buyers. If she can't assist you with the best service and pricing for you, she will direct you to the right people for your circumstances. Her phone number is (941) 730-2972 - Mobile and Email: jbazo@sunbeltlending.com.

Let us know if we can assist further.

Hi Wendy,

As a courtesy, send me your email address and I will send you a search of properties in the MLS that fit your friend's criteria. Put something in the subject line so I know it is you and don't delete as spam. Hope this helps.

I moved here seven years ago from Pittsburgh so I have definitely been in your shoes. Knowing what I know now, I would advise you to focus on getting to know well some of the communities that you want to specialize in, join a great company (like our Coldwell Banker office) that gives you training, support and a good broker/manager, and get a good internet presence.

Sarasota is gorgeous and a wonderful, friendly town to live in. But it is an extremely competitive market and marketing yourself is important.

Good luck and welcome to Sarasota. If you'd like to speak to a fantastic manager from a friendly office, contact Virginia Montgomery at the St. Armands office - #941-388-3966 -- and tell her Jan Petters sent you!

Hello Mike,

Thought it was best to give you the Tax Assessor's website which has detailed explanations of how values are determined. It may also answer some additional questions for you.
