ABR (Accredited Buyer’s Representative)
HFR (Home Finance Resource)
Business background:
Since 1981 I have called the west coast of Florida home! After almost 25 years as a successful restaurant owner in Bradenton Beach, FL, I transitioned into finance, starting my own financial firm serving clients investment needs and 401k plans. After selling the firm to my partner I followed my interest in commercial real estate, where I renovated, bought and sold properties along with doing 1031 exchanges.
I have been on both sides of a business deal, and have developed strong negotiation skills, having negotiated buy and sell deals, contracts and leases with tenants and landlords along with property management.
You will find my professional work ethic and dedication at the Coldwell Banker St. Armand’s office. Whether you are buying or selling a home, I bring exceptional concierge service, communication, and a commitment to help you reach your goals. Financial discipline, management and attention to detail, which are all essential.
I have worked with the local Kiwanis Club raising money for local charities and St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital.
Testimonials
"Our sale was not straight forward as we are non US residents and we were unable to be present during the selling process due to Covid 19. This brought additional work for Billie and Tom, but right from the outset, nothing has been too much trouble for them. We cannot recommend them highly enough for their attention to detail and willingness to make the sale go through as smoothly as possible. Thank you so much"
-Jane and Neil from the U.K., Client
"Tom & Billie are the best realtors my husband and I worked with. They were patient with us when we visited multiple places before we chose the one we liked. They advised through the transaction, and we never felt rushed to make a decision. They both have been there for us from the beginning to the end of the transaction. We definitely recommend Tom & Billie to anyone who is looking to buy the place they will call home! "
-Inoussa & Viktoria K., Client
"Dear Tom and Billie, Now that I have closed escrow and have moved into my new home in Bradenton, I wanted to reach back out to you both with this letter of appreciation and recommendation to other future clients considering using your professional realtor services. This is the third real estate purchase I have made in my life, and I have to say this was by far my best experience of any of those home purchases. This was the first time that I ever purchased a place in an area that I did not live, and you both made me feel very comfortable and at ease with no pressure. I had a feeling of full trust that you both had my best interest in mind. Over the two year process of discussing buying a property and visiting potential places to buy, your patience, professionalism, and concern for me was the best. You made me feel like I was almost a member of your family. I would and will recommend you both to anyone that is looking for a home in the Sarasota or Bradenton areas, Thanks again, "
