Sarasota Florida - Florida's Premier Golf Town


If golf is your passion, Sarasota may just be the premier "golf town" in Florida. If you are searching for a golf course community in which to buy your dream home, Sarasota is the very best place to look. There are over 80 golf courses in the metropolitan Sarasota area including several in nearby Bradenton, Osprey, Venice and on Longboat Key. Many of these courses are within golf course communities allowing you the luxury and convenience of walking or taking a golf cart to the first tee or the club house.

Golf in Sarasota traces its roots back to the late 1880s, when Sir John Hamilton Gillespie traveled from Scotland to the hinterlands of "Sara Sota" with his clubs in hand and a vision of what this land of natural beauty could become.

Our golf courses are open 12 months a year. Whether you enjoy the recreational and social amenities of an upscale country club lifestyle or you're just looking for a new "home course" there is a golf course or golf course community here that will fit you "to a tee." There are private, semi-private, and publc courses galore that will surely fit your needs and desires, whatever your level of play.

If you would like to know more about Sarasota and Mantee County golf course communities, visit the Sarasota Golf Course Communities section of my website. If your needs are more immediate, call me directly at 941-228-2321. I would be delighted to answer your questions and arrange to show you any or all of the many desirable golf communities in Sunny Sarasota.

Thinking About "Going Green" with a More Eco-Friendly Home


I invite you to read an article about building or remodeling a home in a sustainable eco-friendly way. This informative article is on my website as Resources to Help You "Go Green" in your Home.

I have been trained in "green housing" concepts. My RE/MAX Alliance Group office, one of the largest real estate brokerages in Florida, with offices in the Sarasota - Bradenton Florida area, is one of the first real estate companies in the country to demonstrate a commitment to green business practices and promoting green home ownership in Southwest Florida.

I have also earned the coveted Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR) designation. More than 1 million people in the United States are licensed to sell real estate. Of those, fewer than 2% are Accredited Buyer Representatives. My real estate representation, as your Buyer's Agent, is provided at no additional cost to you.

Interested ? I can help you find the best home for you at a fair market price whether you are looking for a "green" home or a more traditional offering. You may want to visit my Sarasota Florida real estate website to learn more. For more immediate service, call me on my direct line at 941-228-2321.
