Just a note to let you know what we experienced with one of your agents at Lakewood Ranch. We have moved about the country over the years and have bought many houses. Never have we ever had such an outstanding agent as Dan Desoto. His professional demeanor and service deserve an A+ grade in all aspects. Congratulations for having such a valued individual in your organization.
Dan was there for me from the beginning to the end of the entire process of finding the perfect home, being there for inspections as I lived 500 miles away, checking on the loan progress, and helping with all closing arrangements.
Dan DeSoto was truly a Gem to work with into searching for our next adventure in Southwest Florida, from 1000 miles away and recommended highly from a Colleague from Connecticut, couldn’t have been so Pleased! My husband Mark and I were so comfortable working from Dan’s Expertise, personal attention to detail, as well as Market Strategies and TIMING. Dan was invested in making sure we checked all boxes in our quest for the right home and certainly did?we are now Floridians and Dan we consider a true Professional and has become a good friend through this process. We will definitely recommend Dan DeSoto (Michael Saunders) in advising on any Real Estate transaction to our family and new friends in the community! Many Thanks Dan! Laura and Mark Leib

"Dan Desoto sold us our first Florida home when he was working at the Lakewood Ranch office.When we wanted to upgrade to a second full time home , he had left the state, but put us in contact with another agent.When we decided to buy a third home 7 years later, we called on Mr Desoto once again. He gives individual attention that we like and we have been around some. This is our 22nd home.
Dan is a fantastic Realtor. He is helpful, honest, resourceful, has integrity and provides recommendations and assistance in all areas of buying and selling homes. He has a great personality, and is friendly and welcoming. He works diligently and hard on your behalf. If you have Dan working for you, you are lucky. He's a great friend.
Dan is a true professional. His level of communication was excellent. He was straight forward and honest . He always gave the feeling of being in control and working in my best interest. If I needed a realtor in the future he would be the first person I would call and would definitely be my recommendation to others. Tim Hill
Dan spoke directly with every agent before they showed our Siesta condo. He said he wanted to be sure each agent knew all the features and benefits and they wouldn't rush thru their showing. That made all the difference! The home sold in one day with a full-price offer and two others waiting to write an offer. The process was smooth because of Dan's diligence and attention to details. He is a consummate sales person whether you're a buyer or seller. We were both. Highly recommended!
Dan listened to us as out-of-towners. We had a broad area and he showed us the greater Sarasota area AND set up 8 open houses for us to see. Dan quickly shifted gears after learning our reactions and set up other properties to see even though they didn't have everything we wanted--the full Gulf view! (It wasn't in our budget AND have the ability to rent by the week....which we wanted.) He treated us as if we were his only clients, he gave his opinions yet didn't tell us what to do. Fortunately, he found us a perfect house and we jumped on it. He made the process flow easily and I believe his professionalism with the other agent got our deal thru without counter offers and bidding wars. We will send anyone to Dan! Thank you!
My wife and I wandered into the Michael Saunders LWR office one day early this summer, and were very fortunate to get connected to Dan Desoto. During our initial visit, we told Dan we had not even listed our house in the middle of the state for sale yet; this did not deter Dan, he still took the time to show us some homes in the area. Later in the summer, we listed our home, sold it in two days, and came back to see Dan the same week and bought our new home in LWR. Through the entire process culminating with closing, Dan was the consummate professional. Even now, if I need anything, I feel like I have a friend in Dan whom I can trust.
Dan was a wonderful professional to work with. He took care of everything because I was 3,000 miles away. He really worked hard and the escrow closed quickly. I would definitely use Dan again!
Dan DeSoto is an excellent real-estate broker! He is there for you on the long haul to find a home or sell yours. He excels in finding good properties to buy, keeps one updated on the house market, and assists with recommendations, ideas and people for home improvement when getting ready to sell, and then outstanding getting it sold.
I never thought we would find an agent that would become a friend. He was great right from the moment he walked into our home. He made selling our home easier than we had ever hoped. Stayed in communication with us always. We went with Michael Saunders when we purchased our home and didn’t hesitate to call them when it came to selling it 18 years later. Thank you Dan. A true professional.
What would we have done without Dan? We would probably still be stumbling around trying to find our way. Dan took us under his wing and has continued to guide us through this process coming to Florida! We started with an excellent agent and have ended up with a true friend!
