What My Clients Say

“Stacy is extremely knowledgeable and hardworking. She represented us professionally both in buying and selling a home. She offered excellent guidance for each transaction, and considerable advice before and after. We recommend her enthusiastically.”

Miller, Seller & Buyer, Lakewood Ranch FL

 

I enjoyed working with Stacy, acting as our agent as we sold our house.  She clearly has enormous experience as a realtor, which is comforting in itself.  She knows what needs to be done to sell homes, but also understands that life (e.g. living with kids) doesn’t always make the ideal feasible, and so makes suggestions about how best to move forward. What I liked most though was Stacy is direct and straightforward.  There is no “what is she really saying?”.  We had a complex sale for a variety of reasons, and at each twist and turn Stacy would run through what our options are, what her advice is, and then leave us to make the decision.  Stacy was very responsive to texts and emails, which was also appreciated.

A. Seldis, Seller Lakewood Ranch FL

As most sellers in my head I overvalued my property.  Stacy was patient, listened yet was firm about the comps She provided.  Her willingness to work through our value differences yet keeping me grounded to the market proved to be head on.  My own stubbornness accounted for two extra months on the market. In the end the comps don’t lie.  Stacy was able to navigate both sides of my deal and bring me in at her original recommended asking price.  As my wife says, there are professionals in this world for a reason!  I feel we made a great choice in our sale because most realtors would rollover just for a listing.  I always respect someone who is willing to stand up and stay true to not thier knowledge of thier profession.

Thanks again to my now friend Stacy.

Joe, Buyer & Seller, Bradenton & Sarasota Florida 

 

 

Stacy is the best at all elements of sales that I have ever been privileged to see in action.  She knows how to qualify her potential buyer as to what will fill their needs and wants and then select product, present product and help with the decision-making process. She knows how to close a deal, negotiate a deal, save a deal after it starts to slide south. Her sales knowledge is a deep routed ability that would allow her to sell anything anywhere.  That would include ice to Eskimos in an igloo.

Brian Oshrin, Seller & Buyer, Lakewood Ranch FL

Working with Stacy to sell our home was a smooth and worry free experience.  She was top notch in her knowledge, expertise and professionalism and we were confident with her advise.  Our home sold in 3 weeks with no drama unlike our previous selling and buying experiences with other realtors that actually created drama and stress.  She was the listing agent when we purchased our home and was impressed with her approach and hands on that we knew if we decided to sell we would work with her to sell the home and we did.  If you want the best of the best Stacy is your only choice!!!

Brenda, Buyer & Seller 

Stacy Haas was recommended to me as the best realtor in Sarasota/Manatee. Her market knowledge, negotiating skills and follow-up were absolutely excellent.  She is bright and very professional.  I would highly recommend her to my friends and business associates.

Seller, Lakewood Ranch FL

 

 

My husband and I recently purchased and sold a home with the help of Stacy Haas.  I wanted to let you know that we had a great experience with both transactions. Stacy was very professional, and I was impressed with her negotiation skills.  Stacy only showed us homes that met our requirements, she did waste our time and did not rush us into a home that was not right for us.  I felt that she was honest and helpful in comparing the homes we viewed during our search.  She was also quick to give us tips on getting our existing home ready to put on the market.  Our home sold quickly and both closings went smoothly.  We thank Stacy for her assistance and plan to call on her again should we need a realtor in the future.

Loel & Murray, Sellers & Buyers, Lakewood Ranch/Bradenton FL

 

Stacy backed by Premier Sotheby’s (her team) did a great job selling our home.  She did a great job marketing our place across all available platforms.  We had a ton of showings which led to our selling the place within 60 days.  Could not have been happier.

Gary, Seller

I truly enjoyed working with Stacy Haas. Her knowledge, loyalty, compassion, professionalism and kindness made my first buying experience outstanding!

SS, Buyer 

 

 

Stacy Haas was amazing to work with! Friendly, caring, compassionate, knowledgeable and extremely informative! As a first time buyer, Stacy’s knowledge of the area, values and the research she provide it was priceless. Her outgoing warm personality made me feel comfortable and at ease while working with her. Stacy’s didn’t stop caring once the contract was signed, she continues to touch base with me to this day to see if I need any help with anything and just to say hi. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND STACY HAAS TO ANYONE!

Sam, Buyer

Outstanding experience from start to finish.  Highly recommend Stacy as a premier agent!!

Sam, Buyer

Stacy is a true professional and with the support of Premier Sotheby’s we felt we were in good hands. We had our home sold within 60 days and that was including a two week “break” due to hurricane Irma. She did a great job marketing our home across all the available platforms and we had a ton of showings. We just could not have been any happier.

Seller, Bradenton FL

 

We found Stacy to be very knowledgeable and professional throughout our entire buying process. She was helpful every step of the way from showing us properties to helping us select the right one for us. We really valued her insight and help in negotiating all the details of our contract and went above and beyond our expectations! Her personal commitment was extremely appreciated and we really valued her thoughts and opinions. We highly recommend Stacy to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home!

Barry & June S, Buyers, Lakewood Ranch, FL

 

We cannot find the right words to thank you for all you’ve done on our behalf during the process of buying our new home.  Your service to us was beyond what is considered “world class”.   Always available with quick answers, much needed good advice and suggestions. Plus you also gave us a closing gift.  This was not expected but greatly appreciated.  Thanks again!🌺                

Bobby & Doug, Buyers, Lakewood Ranch, FL

 

 

Stacy is the consummate professional Real Estate agent in every step of a real estate transaction. She is consistently one of the top performers in the Sarasota area because she is bright, knowledgeable, sophisticated and frankly outworks many of her peers in time spent and effort provided, in order to analyze valuation, identify and screen potential buyers and negotiate and close win-win deals. She is the ideal transactional agent to handle high end transactions and very often represents both the buyer and seller. I highly recommend Stacy for her knowledge, tenacity, negotiation and people skills. She did an outstanding job selling our home.

James Clark, Seller

 

Stacy represented my husband and I in our first home here in Florida. Very knowledgeable, attentive and forthcoming with information.  I would recommend Stacy to a friend.

Cathy, Buyer, Bradenton FL

 

Stacy Haas…Talented. Dynamic. Exceedingly competent. We’ve worked with a number of realtors over the years and she is, hands down, the best.  It’s not because she is diligent to a fault – which she is; it’s not that she follows through on every detail leaving no stone unturned – which she does; and it’s not that she goes way beyond the extra mile — which she does. What makes Stacy a phenomenal realtor is that she is a wonderful person.  Her integrity, honesty and work ethic are second to none.  She will always do the right thing, of that there is no doubt.  We’ve worked with Stacy for the purchase of 2 homes and the sale of one, and have always found her to be positive, energetic and smart.  Her background in interior design is especially helpful in staging homes to sell and envisioning the look of a new home.  We highly recommend Stacy Haas, and are proud to call her our friend.  We are happy to answer any questions about her.

-Maureen & Nancy, Buyers & Sellers, Bradenton

 

 

I have had the opportunity to work with more than a few real estate professionals in the past ten years and Stacy is by far the best of the bunch.  When you enlist her to be your agent, not only are you getting the best agent you can, you also get the relationships she has built throughout the community to help you accomplish your goals.  The people she knows in our community proved to be an amazing advantage to us as we sold our home.  Don’t look anywhere else, she is the best in the business.

Seller, Ellenton FL

 

 

Stacy is incredible at what she does. She’s professional and very knowledgeable. The other thing I really liked was how quickly she communicated every step and very efficient. We knew she was always doing what is best on our behalf.

Lisa, Seller, Bradenton FL

 

It is our immense pleasure to recommend Stacy Haas as a real estate agent if you are searching for a new home or selling your existing property.  We worked with Stacy in selling our home in Lakewood Ranch, FL.  We found her to be a highly attentive agent, almost as if we were her only customers, although we know that was not the case.  She returned all phone calls and emails the same day. We never felt neglected or unimportant.  She is also highly personable with an engaging personality. Most importantly, Stacy brought in multiple offers and we were able to achieve the highest price per square foot for any property in our neighborhood. We are pleased to recommend Stacy to anyone looking to buy or sell a home and if we ever need to move again she will be our first choice in real estate agents.

Carl & Pat Cooper, Sellers, Lakewood Ranch FL

We decided to relocate from WI to the Lakewood Ranch community in Sarasota, FL.  While we wanted to build a new home, we did look at several existing homes.  It was during this search that we happened upon Stacy Haas – and what a blessing this turned out to be. We believe that due to her intimate knowledge of this area, our search immediately became more focused.  Within a week we had a reservation on a lot with a builder in The Lake Club, a daunting prospect for us since we had never built a home.  And here is where Stacy excelled. She has excellent working relationships with the SMR management of Lakewood Ranch and with our builder, Arthur Rutenberg Homes.  We leaned on her heavily during the home design and permitting phases of the process, and she always made herself readily available.  It was the same during the intense phase where we had to select finishes.  We believe her training in interior design made her an incredible resource for us and made what could have been a stressful event quite manageable.  Our closing will occur in about two months, and we are happy to report that we’ve been delighted with how our build has proceeded which is in no small part due to Stacy’s involvement.  Overall we’ve been very impressed with how hard Stacy has worked at being our advocate and could not recommend her more highly. 

Cindy & John, Buyers, Lakewood Ranch FL

 

We used Stacy Haas in both the purchase of our Florida home four years ago, and again in our recent sale.  Stacy is a professional and easy to work with.  In addition to the pleasure of dealing with Stacy on both the purchase process and the sale process, I think Stacy’s strength really comes out in the negotiation process.  She is a strong negotiator and is likely to come out with the purchase price you want if you are a buyer, and the sale price if you are a seller.  Stacy also has an excellent assistant, who helps with many of the details of the buying and selling process.  They make a strong team that you will enjoy dealing with in accomplishing your goal.

Dan, Buyer & Seller

 

 

 

Stacy made purchasing a new house a breeze! She consistently goes over and beyond what any realtor will ever do. She helped negotiate the price, she’s prompt, always gets back to you with any questions you may have, she went to the design center with us and helped me pick out the most beautiful   things for my new home! My buying experience with Stacy superseded all of my expectations and I recommend her with the highest regard! She makes buying a new home easy! I’ve since recommended her to numerous other people who have also had great success with her!

Buyer, Bradenton FL

Stacy Haas proved to be a diligent researcher, a creative and strong negotiator, a tirelessly and patient worker, a terrific analytical resource in helping us to evaluate a shifting and confusing market and a great help in getting us settled in our new community here in Sarasota.  All of that in combination with an engaging personality makes her everything you could ever hope for in a first class real estate professional.

Douglas & Elizabeth, Buyers, Sarasota FL

Stacy, I was thinking back and reflecting about you today as Michael and I had a meeting with Julia at the design center to pick out the pool stonework …your time spent was so appreciated and your honesty and energy sure made our experience so much more stress-free and fun!  From the time you spent finding a home for us, to finding us the perfect lot and then representing us during the new construction process.  You were a vital part of every decision we made. Thank you for your expertise and professionalism.

Emily Arsenault, Buyer, Lakewood Ranch FL

Immediately after meeting with Stacy, we knew she was the real estate agent for us.  Her professionalism, preparedness, communication skills, marketing plan, and track record speak for themselves.  We interviewed 3 Realtors, and the differing levels of service available was shocking. Stacy was honest and realistic about the length of time it would take to sell our $1,000,000+ home (she said the average time on the market was 8 months, it sold in 7 months) and was an excellent negotiator on our new home we purchased in the Lake Club. We highly recommend her and would only use Stacy for our Real Estate needs in the future.

Melissa, Buyer & Seller, Lakewood Ranch FL

We want to thank Stacy for the excellent service she provided us in selling our home and buying another one in Lakewood Ranch.  From the first contact to the last handshake with Stacy, the process went smoothly with no pressure normally added felt while selling a home.   Stacy made us feel like we were her only clients by answering every email, text and phone call quickly and completing any request we had of her right away and with a smile.   She looked out for us in every step of the process and showed her immense knowledge by making sure everything was correctly done.  We will miss her, as she made us feel like we made a best friend.  Thank you for making this transaction feel so easy.

Tom & Cindy Mannis, Buyers & Sellers, Lakewood Ranch FL

It is hard to put into words just how wonderful we feel about Stacy Haas. We have wanted to sell our house for well over a year now.  Unsuccessful the first time; Stacy convinced us to try a 2nd time.  Within 41 days, our house was sold.  Stacy not only sold our house quickly, but also for a great price.  She was there every step of the way, providing feedback after “every” showing….something we had not experienced the first time it was on the market.  The feedback was invaluable.  It helped us to remain optimistic through the process.  We were absolutely certain that if interest was shown, Stacy would pursue it until the end, just one example of her tenacious personality. 

Another impressive trait was Stacy’s confidence and her ability to handle objections.  She seemed to have prepared herself for any objections when she first walked through the door of the house.  Our photos and virtual tour were done beautifully.  Her interior design background helped us stage the house.  Stacy was there to help us understand the documents.  We could not give her enough praise and are so grateful she was recommended to us.  If you want your house sold, Stacy is your realtor.

Chris & Linda Lang, Seller, Bradenton FL

Stacy: We did not know each other.  When I needed a realtor on short notice, you jumped. When I needed a concentration of your time, you gave days. When I needed knowledge, you were the book. When I needed honesty, you were spontaneous. When I needed a warrior, you wore paint. When I needed a friend, you were already there. During my lengthy life, I have known and worked with many realtors.  If I had a nickel for each of them as good as you, I would have five cents. You are the best and I thank you!

Bob Gaston

We have dealt with many realtors over our fifty years of marriage and homes bought and sold.  This year we purchased a home in another state and it was listed with Stacy Haas, a realtor like none we ever thought existed.  Stacy was so helpful in so many ways that we could not possibly list them all.  She was there for us every step of the way and found anything and everything we needed and more.  She took care of us or had someone call for each and every thing we needed.   Stacy was not only honest and oh so helpful with us, the buyers, but she also was faithful and true to her clients who were selling the house we wanted to purchase.   Stacy has the highest level of INTEGRITY of any Realtor we have ever known. We have the greatest respect, confidence, and appreciation for how wonderful she was in helping us make this transition.  And now we’ve used her for two transactions!

Gilbert & Shirley Piazza, Buyers

Thank you very much for your letter regarding my recent purchase of a home through your company. I have now worked with Stacy Haas on three purchases and three sales of properties since I’ve lived in Florida and I would like to say that she has proven to be a great asset to your Company and a very professional resource for me. I will continue to think of Stacy when I have a real estate need in the future.

Donald, Buyer & Seller, Palmetto FL

She got the job done in an excellent and timely fashion! Stacy was very professional and helped with any questions I had every step of the way.   She has a very great personality and I believe that was a huge plus in trying to get my house sold.  This was the first place I called and she was recommended by one of my neighbors.  Excellent realtor to work with and I would recommend her to anybody…and she brought the Buyer as well!

Ron Wahl, Seller, Lakewood Ranch FL

My wife and I recently purchased a house in Florida after spending some time researching properties on the internet. We were very pleased and extremely impressed with how the whole process was handled.   Not having been through this type of a purchase in the U.S. before, we were obliged to count on the honesty and integrity of the agent and the company that we were going to deal with.  Upon calling Stacy Haas for information on a few of her listings, we were quite pleasantly surprised, she met with more than sufficient information and follow-up by her and after satisfactory due diligence which required extensive communications, all carried out very professionally and efficiently on the part of Stacy Haas.  We decided to make an offer on her listing and we were well guided throughout the process by Stacy.  When some issues presented themselves that would have been detrimental to the deal being carried out, Stacy was very adamant about finding a solution that would meet the needs of both parties, and all the negotiations were handled with careful thought and measured consideration for our concerns as international buyers.  The care that was taken in the preparation of the documents showed top-notch professionalism and the closing process went without a hitch.  As residents of a foreign country, we were expecting that things would be much more difficult to bring to a close, but Stacy showed us that with the right people and a strong attention to detail and the needs of their clients, purchasing property internationally can be a rather pleasant task.  We are looking forward to our second purchase with Stacy in the very near future.

Donald & Monique, Buyers

My wife and I would like to thank you very much for your extensive (and ultimately successful) efforts in finding us a house in the Sarasota/Bradenton area.  Considering that we live 1500 miles from your area and had never stepped foot in Sarasota/Bradenton, we could not possibly have done this without you.  Again, our deepest thanks and without a doubt we have and will continue to recommend you to our friends and family.

Todd Reybroek, Buyer

I am writing in reference to Stacy Haas, who handled the sale of our last home.  She is an extremely professional individual who can be entrusted with the “large scale negotiations” down to the minutest details.  She was very lovely to work with and made the transaction go as smoothly as possible.  My husband and I certainly appreciated her level of class and professionalism, and we would enjoy working with her in the future.

Sara Jeffrey, Seller

Stacy, Thank you again for your time yesterday and your outstanding professionalism as always!  You certainly set the bar!  I think that you are Fabulous….. Total Pro!

Christine, Realtor

Stacy, Thank You.  You have been a real PRO.  I truly appreciate working with you.

Vikki, Realtor

We are working on an offer and have entered into discussions with Stacy.  She is a pleasure to work with and we look forward to executing a contract and working toward a close together.

Lisa, Realtor

 

 

Stacy provided excellent guidance in assisting us with purchasing a home and also selling our existing home. She was always available to answer our questions and introduced us to service providers that could assist us post sale. I definitely would recommend working with Stacy.

Mike, Buyer & Seller

 

 

We want to thank you for your concerted efforts to make this home purchase a reality. Your friendly, professional approach and readily providing all invoices and documents you had is much appreciated.

Joe Iannello, Buyer, Longboat Key FL

 

 

Absolutely the best realtor in the entire state of FL. Her knowledge and expertise are top notch!! It gives me great pleasure in recommending Stacy to any prospective buyer or seller. You are in competent hands.

Helen Hecker

 

 

Great Sales person

Ed Serra

 

 

Stacy is second to none! Her professionalism and knowledge is hands down the best! Stacy takes the time to listen and understand your needs. She not only sold my home in a not so hot market, she was able to find me exactly what we were looking for in our new home.

Stacey, Buyer & Seller

 

 

If you are looking for a realtor who put’s forth 100% effort for her clients, look no further. My husband & I had the pleasure of working with Stacy on the sale of our home. She continuously made herself available to answer our calls, respond to our emails & address the many demands of the sale process. We appreciate her professionalism, genuine nature, negotiation skills, knowledge, business ethic & hard work. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Laura, Seller

 

 

This note is in response to your letter of June 28, asking for my opinion about the actions of your agency in purchasing and selling homes in this area.  We have had three transactions with your agency in the last 12 months.  It has been the pleasure of a lifetime to meet a salesperson with the natural talent for sales and the “Art of the Deal” the way Stacy Haas has.  For a long time, I thought I was the best salesperson I ever met.  Then my wife and I met Stacy and    I knew immediately that I had met my match and then some.  I have never come across a salesperson like Stacy who is so very thorough, complete, polished and knowledgeable as Stacy.   She understands how to work a seller as well as to negotiate with a buyer. And she completes her tasks with integrity and skill. I would like to say that Stacy is surrounded by an excellent team of people.  Sierra and Gloria do complete the circle of competence that is created by this team. Be happy to have all of these folks under your banner and just watch them to continue to grow along with the opportunities that Michael Saunders& Company can provide.  There is no mountain that Stacy cannot climb.

Brian & Donna, Buyers & Sellers, Lakewood Ranch FL

 

 

I just wanted to let you know that it was a pleasure working with you on the home sale on Beacon Park PL.  It’s really refreshing working with a Realtor who is professional and caring and I can honestly can say you have both of those qualities!  So I hope our real estate paths cross again because I would enjoy working with you in the future.

Carol Marra, Realtor

 

 

My husband and I were talking about our move this morning. I asked him if we would use the same realtors again. The answer was yes–we both agreed that the partners of Stacy Haas, Gloria Bracciano and Greg Van Natter did everything possible to bring us a buyer.  Moreover, once we moved into the pending phase, Gloria took care of scheduling all the inspections and repairs required. Closing Day was stressful, and both Gloria and Stacy worked into the night to finish the job. This house sold while others on the street were languishing, and we give The Luxury Living Group the credit. Please pass our gratitude on to them. 

Dennis & Chris, Sellers, Lakewood Ranch FL

 

 

Stacy, and the whole team at Michael Saunders were very supportive throughout our home searching and buying process. We felt that we were very taken care of throughout our experience. We highly recommend them!

David & Liz, Buyers, Lakewood Ranch FL
