My name is Joan Winters and I began my real estate career here in Sarasota in 2011. My background is in behavior analysis, family therapy and policy and procedure development. This means I come to you with expert assessment and negotiation skills, patience, understanding, attention to detail, and the ability to educate. These abilities truly lend themselves to successful transactions and positive client relationships. They pave the way for navigating the complexities of the contract and ensuring that all goes smoothly from offer to closing, (in what is typically a stressful process). In fact, a very important part of my job is to alleviate this stress as much as possible, and I do so by providing you with all the information you need to make the best decisions you can. Informed decisions start here.
I understand the importance of being available and responsive to your calls and questions.. Of providing feedback regarding your listings and/or the availability of other properties to see.
I have sold Gulf Front condos on Siesta, investment properties on Anna Maria and Longboat Key,, rental units in Bradenton. first time buyer homes in Sarasota, Intracoastal waterfront boating villas, suburban homes in Palmer Ranch, beach condos in Venice, single family homes in Osprey, estate properties in Lakewood Ranch. Probate listings and foreclosures. I am not afraid to seek out expert advice where warranted.
I love to help people happily have successful transactions.
And I love what I do.

"Joan assisted us in purchasing a beach house in 5/17 on LBK. Want to let you know how incredibly happy we are. We rented it for the first 2 years and then completely renovated inside & out making it our winter home. People constantly slow down and tell us they love our house, many interested in buying it. The counsel you gave us on the location west of Gulf of Mexico Drive was extremely valuable. Several houses on our street turned over in the past 3 years making it an extremely hip neighborhood with a great vibe. It is the only neighborhood west of Gulf of Mexico Drive on LBK. Just wanted to thank you. ? ? ? ? ? Michael O’Brien"

"My husband and I had rented a home in Siesta Key and loved It. While we were there we made an appointment with Joan to show us around and look at a few places. She was very professional and knowledgeable in the real estate world and the area and places available. She was very friendly, patient and listened to our wants and needs. Joan did a brilliant job helping us negotiate through the process of making an offer and answered our million calls, day and night and on weekends. She went through all the contracts and paper work word for word helping my husband understand all the real estate lingo and Florida. Laws. She helped with the condo association, that we were buying Into, details as well. When we hit a snag or had any issues Joan was a great advocate for us!! If it weren’t for her calm, knowledgeable ways we would not be happy Siesta Key home owners today. She was professional, knowledgeable, kind, humorous, thorough, diligent, So I’d say Joan was fantastic! "
