Being part of the Argelia Vidal Team, we have been honored by Coldwell Banker Realty for being in the Florida 100 for the last 5 years. Top agents take pride in supporting our customers dealing with property transactions both selling and buying. I am always supporting my wife, who is the lead of the team and pumping our statistics any way I can help. When our team takes a listing, we make sure the home is presented in the best light. In that, making sure the exterior and interior are painted well, professional photos are taken after we professionally stage the home and making sure the landscaping is in top notch shape. We accompany all showings if at all possible to express to the buyers the key points and benefits of features in the listing. We also do open houses to make available the listing to all folks that want to see the home, but may not have a relationship with an agent yet. Buyer also receive our knowledge of the area on the SW Gulf Coast of Florida. Physically showing the properties after sorting the focused area best meeting the buyers interests. We are proud of our experience and knowledge in real estate transactions, knowing our market and finding the buyers their dream homes or investments.
History:
Proud Father of five, honorable husband, retired educator of K-College, and contemporaneous Real Estate Agent.
I was born and raised in Ann Arbor Michigan. Both parents were raised in the heartland of Iowa on farms. Father ended up a professor at University of Michigan in Mathematics. I played ice hockey from the age of four and grew up in a front porch community with many children out and about. Loved being a part of community with gatherings together in street parties, dances and picnics. Home is a precious place for me and I appreciate each persons' desire to find and secure for clients to find their true dream home. With my Mother living in the Sarasota area for over forty years, I have traveled and even sent my kids here to this area in that same time. Finally, built our home in North East Bradenton and lived here for the last eleven years. Even though I am a surfer and this is the Gulf of Mexico coast line, I find a way to enjoy the areas water ways by kayaking, canoeing, jet skiing, fishing (both Manatee River, Bay and Big Water), and chilling in the Gulf on five of the best beaches in this country. My wife and I are "foodies" and love the many restaurants in this area. I have also loved riding horses and running free across large open lands. Just East of most of this area offers wide open spaces and the opportunities to own land with a view that is timeless. With both of my parents raised in Iowa, I appreciate the farm land, rustic spaces and stretch communities. We have it all just in our reach here. Not to mention, Orlando under an hour and a half, St Pete in thirty and Tampa an hours distance offering the pro scene and shows/concerts. My wife and I truly love to help support our clients in real estate, with many of them becoming life long friends of ours.
