“Can I Give 10 Stars? Where do I even begin? After interviewing countless realtors, I knew from my very first phone call with Deb Scott that I had found the right person to represent Virgil and I in our home sale. We spoke for 44 minutes! What realtor spends that much time on a first call? We just clicked! I hung up feeling like I had known her for years and I was excited to get the ball rolling. We were so lucky to have found her. Selling our beautiful Florida home while living in New Jersey could have been a nightmare. Looking back over these past four months, I cannot imagine navigating this sale without Deb. Now, let me brag… Several realtors told us we needed to spend thousands of dollars staging our home. Not Deb! Our home was unfurnished, but she took it upon herself to hang paintings on the walls, add decorative touches, and brighten up the entire space. Down to the doormat she placed at the front door, she thought of everything! She made our empty house feel warm and welcoming. From the magnificent television commercial she created for Channel 5 News to the unforgettable video of a house literally erupting from the earth, the marketing strategy was on point! (If you know, you know!) Deb goes above and beyond as a realtor. There was no stone left unturned, no window left unwashed, and not a single light that wasn't perfectly dimmed! From coordinating repairs to handling unexpected issues, she took care of details we couldn't possibly manage from New Jersey. Let's talk about negotiating offers! Navigating the Florida real estate market was certainly not my area of expertise, but Deb knew exactly what she was doing. She understood when to push, when to hold firm, and how to work her magic. I may not have understood all her moves at the time, but she had a strategy and executed it flawlessly. I trusted her, and let me tell you, that is not something that comes easily to me! She earned that trust, and I'm so glad I listened. I'll never forget the day the pool alarms went off! Who did I call? Deb, of course! Basically asking her to go save me! And she did, because apparently being my realtor also meant being my emergency response team! Together, we had a ton of inside jokes, and I wouldn't have had it any other way. Honestly, it felt like we had gone to high school together! We laughed so much, and sometimes I called just to shoot the breeze rather than talk about the house. There were moments when I realized our paths had crossed for a reason far beyond a realtor-client relationship. I truly believe a higher power decided we were supposed to meet. And then there was the pond. Let's just say God apparently decided to take care of that one Himself. The funniest part? Neither of us even realized it had happened until it was already done. A small miracle! Sometimes God puts people in your life when you least expect it. Somewhere between the staging, open houses, repairs, emergencies, and endless phone conversations, Deb stopped being just our realtor and became my friend. We got so comfortable that our calls often ended with, "Love you, bye!" And I meant it! If you're looking for a realtor in the Venice, Nokomis, or Sarasota area, I cannot recommend Deb Scott enough. She knows her business, works incredibly hard, and genuinely cares about her clients. My husband and I were fortunate to have her represent us, and I'm blessed to now call her my friend. Deb, if you're reading this... I love you, my friend! Thank you for everything, especially the laughs, the memories, and a friendship I never saw coming. Google may only allow five stars, but you know I'd give you ten! And just because the house is sold doesn't mean you're getting rid of me! Anyway, I'll call you later! xo”
“I am not sure it's possible to give someone a higher rating, because 5 stars doesn't even begin to describe what a wonderful experience it has been dealing with Deb. If you're looking for an agent that truly wants the best outcome for everyone involved, don't waste you time dealing with anyone else, call Deb Scott. She goes over and above for her clients and makes the process of purchasing or selling a home reassuring, comfortable and professional every step of the way. If there were a 10 star rating available, she would get it every time!”
“Ms. Scott, is highly motivated and knowledgeable and easy to work with. She provided outstanding guidance, market analysis and professional staging of our property, results; home sold in record time!”
“Thanks Deb! She sold our home in a week and we moved into another home quickly. She even staged our house and helped us move!”
“My quick sale was largely due to Deb's "instant" lovely decor additions with comradery built in. She's a determined and fierce real estate ethics negotiator.”
“Deb is a born salesperson. She is quick to give reasons why her product (the house she is selling) is valuable. She comes up with brilliant ideas to help move a deal along. She did a great job at staging our home. Thank you Deb for all your hard work to get our house sold and closed.”
“I was most pleased with doing business with Deb Scott in the selling if my home. professionalism was the best. My house sold quickly, at asking price, marketed greatly, and it was a total pleasure.”
“Deb, thank you for turning what could have been a stressful process into such a positive experience. Your patience, market insight, and professionalism are unmatched. We are so grateful for your help!”
“Deb was awesome selling my home!. Deb and Sue made it easy and fun, yes I did say fun! It was a whirlwind and my house sold in 15 days. Deb and Sue are very knowledgeable and they advertise, stage and get the foot traffic in to see your home. They have your interests as their top priority. Listen to them and your home will sell. Glad I had Deb and Sue in my corner!”
