About Ed
Hi, I’m Ed — and Sarasota has been home to me since 1982. I’ve watched this community grow, change, and become one of the most special places to live in Florida. Helping people find their place here isn’t just my job… It’s something I genuinely love doing.
Whether you’re buying your first home, searching for that perfect gulf-front retreat, or getting ready to sell and move on to your next chapter, I’m here to make the process smooth, clear, and stress-free. I’m a strong negotiator, a straight-shooter, and someone who always puts your goals first.
Over the years, I’ve helped buyers and sellers with everything from traditional residential sales to more complex situations like foreclosures, short sales, probate listings, and distressed properties. No matter what your situation looks like, you’ll have someone in your corner who knows the market inside and out — and knows how to protect your best interests.
I’m proud to be recognized for my customer service, earning the Five-Star Award for 11 years in a row — an honor given to only the top 2% of Realtors. I’m also deeply involved in the professional side of real estate, with certifications in CDPE, REOS, Short Sales, CHS, HAFA, and more.
At the end of the day, my goal is simple:
Make your real estate experience feel easy, informed, and genuinely enjoyable.
If you’re thinking about buying or selling in Sarasota or the surrounding areas, I’d love to help you get started.
