The team at Florida Luxury Living is awesome! They possessed the knowledge, experience, and…read moreexpertise to guide me through the most challenging purchase of my life. I originally used FLL to purchase a home and they sent me options daily within my price range and suggested areas that fit my lifestyle and needs. Charles is an expert negotiator and held difficult conversations to get me the best deal but also thought about the property from an investment perspective. He thinks outside the box and I wouldn't have been able to do this on my own. I've also used them for property management which has lifted a burden from the back and forth with renters. Any repairs that needed done they took care of it and kept my renters happy. I would enthusiastically recommend this team not solely based on my experience but also the fact that where other realtors have let me down, they gave me the red carpet experience.

She took the time to get to know me, what I was looking for and didn't waste time helping me find the place I can call home. She could tell within minutes of walking up to a property if it was worth a walk through or if we should move onto the next one. Philippa took the time to make sure I understood what to look for in a house as well as every part of the home buying process. When my initial offer didn't get accepted, she quickly negotiated details of my offer with the listing agent on a deal that worked out perfectly for everyone involved. If you want a realtor who knows what she's doing and can make anything in the home buying/selling process a breeze, Philippa is the best.

They never once gave me an opinion on the units I was looking at, but yet proceeded to tell me that I'm not letting them help me when they did nothing. In my experience, I would never recommend these people and I think maybe they're burnt out and I understand that happens, but I can't make that my problem.

I've been fortunate to have known Rick Goodridge and his family for many years and although I am…read morenot in the market for a new home, I wanted to let people know that all the great comments you may have heard or read about Rick are definitely true. After reading some of the testimonials his customers and other Realtors have written about him, I had to add my own personal comments. When Rick told me that he was going to get his real estate license, I knew he would be the kind of Realtor that everyone talks highly about. Anyone who knows him will tell you what a great guy he is, but he is so much more when it comes to business. He also has a tough side to him. Rick is very professional and always willing to give 100% to everyone he works with. He is crazy about the details and doesn't give up until he accomplishes each and every task. His customer's goals become his goals, and his customers truly benefit from that quality! He has had a very successful sales career and his strong knowledge of sales and negotiation is second to none. He treats people with respect and kindness. Even when he is getting someone to do something they weren't expecting to do. LOL He knows how to win! When I am ready to purchase my next home, Rick will be the only Realtor I will consider. If you are looking to buy or sell, do yourself a favor and reach out to Rick Goodridge. Obviously, his customers are glad they did.

Selling or buying real estate nowadays has really become like planning a wedding…read more In that regard, a realtor is very similar to a wedding planner who must, with pleasant demeanor, exceed the expectations of the client while successfully navigating the demands of so many other parties whose interests conflict with their client's. And they have only one chance. There are no do-overs. It is in that light I am happy to congratulate Rick for the great job he did for my wife and me. We'd decided a couple of years ago that we would steadily get our house fixed up and then move. We put a new roof, AC, hot water heater, plumbing, carpet, and paint in/on the house. Rick did some great pricing analysis and was waiting to pull the trigger on our listing. But suddenly, my job situation changed drastically, and we had to go dark for a few weeks. Once resolved, the market began changing very quickly, which required someone who knew how to adjust, what to prioritize, and how to go to market. As we went to market, the real estate market continued to change significantly by the day. Rick was never phased, always had the answers we needed, and advised us how to proceed through such a rapidly changing market. He was always able to get great feedback from potential buyers that allowed us to make, or delay, decisions as necessary. He worked very hard to adjust the strategy to what the market was demanding. We had great exposure, and countless showings. But my wife and I were reluctant to adjust to the knowledge Rick was sharing out of our own stubbornness. Once we followed his lead, Rick was successfully able to match us to an interested buyer. Then Rick's true value became even more apparent. Though our buyer was a very shrewd, detail-oriented buyer, Rick was able to close the gap between the asking price and the offered price in a way that was very favorable to us. He negotiated a fantastic deal against a very formidable opponent. As the close process proceeded, Rick was asked to make changes to almost every aspect of the deal (credits/allowances/financing re-arrangements/date changes/etc.) So much was demanded of him, but he stood firm, and in every case, was able to negotiate a favorable outcome for us. His expertise made my wife and I very comfortable at a time when we might not have been if Rick had not been in control. After finally reaching a contract, Mother Nature decided to come to the table in the form of Hurricane Ian. Once again, Rick stood firm, and didn't let anything jeopardize the sale. The storm caused some damage to our newly installed roof that needed to be repaired. While having plenty of family, friends, and a community of his own to help after an event that disastrous, Rick stopped by our house to survey the damage, prepared a report for us, and had solutions all by the time he called us the next morning. It was a remarkable level of commitment. He already had our business. He already had done everything he needed to do to finalize the contract. But in a tough circumstance, he put himself in our shoes, and did everything and more to help make us whole. We completed our sale in mid-December after hurdle after hurdle caused by a rapidly changing economic market, our pricing inflexibility, a very demanding buyer, and catastrophic weather events. We did so because Rick beat every one of them. Without him, I know for a fact that our result would not have been as fruitful as it was. His leadership, knowledge, service, and commitment are what makes him second to none. Yes, Rick's a hell of a nice guy to talk to. I'm confident he'll be a friend for every day God gives each of us. But I'm not offering this testimonial of Rick to those looking for a friend. I'm offering this to anyone looking for confidence to win their deal and do so with little or no stress. If you want the best deal, and don't want to worry about whether you are getting it, call Rick. Selling and buying homes is a very difficult and stressful event. Hiring Rick, on the other hand, is easy. We're sure glad we did
