TESTIMONIALS

Julie and Pat are the Best!!!

We sold our home quickly, receiving many great offers within hours. Julie and Pat are focused and are market experts. They are very "hands-on". Their advice and assistance during the prep were invaluable. They provided services far beyond what would normally be expected. They scheduled everything, from the Stagers to window cleaners, and were there to meet vendors for us after we were gone. We could not have gotten through the process without them. Julie and Pat were kind, reassuring and professional as they guided us through the entire process, from our initial idea to move through post closing. We felt that we were never alone and were being treated as if we were family. We can't thank them enough and highly recommend them to anyone wanting to sell their home in Lakewood Ranch.

Great agents helped us find a great home!

We recently worked with Julie and Pat Warren to purchase our new home in Lakewood Ranch. They were great to work with and listened to what we were looking for in a home purchase (live in either Country Club or Country Club East, certain builders and size of home in terms of square footage, bedrooms and bathrooms). Purchasing a home in this market was definitely challenging, given the low inventory and home prices. They found the perfect home for us and we highly recommend them!

Bob B. after multiple moves

Julie and Pat assisted me with the purchase of a home recently and I must say they were tremendously competent, caring and professional. Best I have experienced in over 10 moves throughout the USA. They are thorough, knowledgeable, available and supportive. They unhesitatingly look out for your interest and provide solid counsel concerning location, value, HOA concerns, mortgage availability, inspections and closing. Julie and Pat are with you every step of the way. Select them over all others!

Kyle and Rene F. on moving from another state!

Julie and Pat were Highly Recommended and Should Be!! My family moved to Florida from another state. We loved the Sarasota-Bradenton area, but needed guidance. Simply put, Julie and Pat were Absolutely Incredible! They were always available and we always felt like we were their priority. They went over and beyond every step of the way, and did many things for us that does not fall under their requirements or duties to us as clients. It was never a business transaction. Julie and Pat are two of the kindest, caring and thoughtful people you will ever meet or work with, and very knowledgeable as well. No stone was left unturned and they take thorough to the next level. I almost never write reviews, but I am writing this one because I am very thankful for the service, professionalism and the dedication we have received from Julie and Pat. They have made this move so much easier and less stressful. I would recommend them every time. Thank you Julie and Pat!!! You are the best!!

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Julie and Pat. Julie and Pat are excellent at what they do. They have great knowledge of the real estate market and had great advice for us in the search for our home.

Tina and Andy B.

Julie and Pat did a great job in both selling our home and helping us with finding and closing on the new home. We looked at soooo many homes! Julie worked around our schedule, answered questions when they arose, and really went the extra mile both on the sale and buy transactions. We couldn't ask for a better agent and now we have all the room we need!

New Buyers from Indiana!

Outstanding Experience! We met Julie at an open house almost two years ago when vacationing in Sarasota. During 2019 and 2020, we worked with Julie and Pat from our home in Indiana to understand the Sarasota market. They provided us with listings and spent hours on the phone with us to coach us through the pros and cons of different neighborhoods including property taxes, HOA/CDD fees, amenities, and location just to name a few. Upon arrival to Sarasota in October 2020, they continued to send us countless listings and always made time to accompany us to properties...which is an incredible accomplishment in light of Covid considerations and the fast moving market in which we were operating. They gave us candid, invaluable feedback about properties and neighborhoods which also allowed us to explore the area on our own when we arrived. Most importantly, Julie and Pat as a team provided deep market knowledge and created a strong collaborative and trusting relationship with us.

Stephanie B. First time home buyer!

Fantastic first-time Buying experience!! As a first-time home buyer it can be hard to know what to expect. It can be an intimidating process! However, Julie and Pat made it seamless and enjoyable! They were patient with explaining terms, transparent in communication with the seller's agent about my concerns, incredibly responsive to questions and extremely knowledgeable about the neighborhood. I felt very well taken care of during the largest purchase of my life and I would do it all over again with Julie and Pat. A great experience with the best Dynamic Duo in Lakewood Ranch!!

Frist home buying experience for Alexia B

If you are looking for a realtor to help you find your perfect home, look no further. Pat and Julie Warren are the absolute BEST! Being a first time home owner, I was so nervous about looking for our first family home. Pat and Julie were on top of it from the start, super attentive, had a TON of advice regarding finances, and are so knowledgeable about the area. They paved the way, took me to numerous homes, and led us to our PERFECT house and neighborhood. They were there for us every step of the way, and not only am I grateful to have them as my realtors, but grateful to have them as my friends. Thank you Pat and Julie!! You guys are so Great!

Mark H. Colleague and syndicated Real Estate writer

Pat is a sharp business mind, an astute people person, and a really kind human being. He is gracious, yet aggressive. Well prepared and keenly articulate at his craft. People like, trust and believe Pat. He is a quiet leader by good example and goes until the job is done right. He is a dedicated family man and I guy whose advice I trust. I recommend Pat for any project lead as I have seen him successful so many times for so many people. Great guy.

Heather S. Experienced home buyer

Excellent service! I have used 4 realtors in Sarasota in the past 7 years. Julie was by far the best. Always organized and on time. Her communication was superb. Thank you Julie for the great experience on selling my property.

Robert and Christina from Utah!

My husband and I were remote buyers and Julie and The Warren Group went above and beyond to find us our dream home and to help us make the experience as stressfree as buying a home could be. Julie helped us navigate the process successfully and with confidence, even from states away. Highly, highly recommended!

Jason and Kelli, new homeowners!

Awesome agents! Julie and Pat were a joy to work with! They found us the perfect home and made sure everything closed on a super tight timeline. They made a stressful experience feel so easy. Highly recommend!

Michael and Amy on relocation

Relocation to Sarasota, FL - Virtual Home Search My wife and I had the pleasure to work with Julie and Pat Warren during our recent home buying process when we relocated from Virginia to Sarasota, FL. Julie and Pat did a great job helping us and were able to support us virtually through the home buying process. They were professional and very responsive. They helped us zero in on the areas and neighborhoods that would be the best fit for our family. I would highly recommend Julie and Pat if you are looking for a realtor in Manatee or Sarasota county!

Relocation to Sarasota! Don and Naima F.

We met Julie over 15 years ago while vacationing in Sarasota. Julie was an unofficial ambassador of Lakewood Ranch touting all of the reasons why it was a great place to live and play. In time I came to learn that Julie and her husband Pat were Realtors. 12 years later my husband and I decided to seriously consider buying a home in the Sarasota area and immediately contacted the Warrens. Over the course of at least 2 years Julie and Pat enthusiastically and patiently showed us homes and worked with us to determine where we wanted to live. They were extremely knowledgeable about the area and not only lent an invaluable perspective on different neighborhoods but they also often toured houses on our behalf because we were shopping from afar. We decided to build and Julie and Pat helped us negotiate terms with our builder and stayed in touch and helped us through the entire process. We appreciated their professionalism and sincere concern for our being happy with our purchasing decision.

Most happy with my home selling experience! Janet F.

I’m so glad now that we turned to the Warren family for my last property sale. You kind folks have done a superb job for me using the tech knowledge that I’m lacking. Your expertise and expediency were admirable and I greatly appreciate it. I never expected it all to go so well, thanks to young Patrick introducing himself at my front door. To quote the Bard, ”What’s done is done and cannot be undone.” Thankfully, it could not have been done any more efficiently than “twas” done by the Warren Family. And, upon completion, I must repeat once more how much I value your professionalism and application to the task. Most Sincerely, Janet

Flawless Execution! Larry and Susan Q.

Flawless Execution!! We have had the benefit of the Pat and Julie Warren team's excellent knowledge and experience for several transactions. Not only did they guide us through the largest home purchase of our lives, they work with the selling agent to hammer out a last minute kink on the selling side. Everyone left the settlement table incredibly happy. Pat & Julie also helped us with the sale of a home after that...again..flawless and hassle free! I have recommended the Warren Group to several neighbors and their homes have sold in the same quick and efficient manner.

Total Pro! Jason and Rebecca T.

Total Pro! We met Julie at an Open House and loved her market knowledge, enthusiasm for Lakewood Ranch, and willingness to help us find our dream home in Florida. As we were relocating from California, she went above and beyond to help us get connected here with all of the vendors we needed. Pat Warren is a superb negotiator and helped us seal our deal. We highly recommend this team!

Buying and Selling Experience! Bob B.

I have had the good fortune of working with Julie and Pat Warren in listing and closing on our home. Their professionalism, dedication, knowledge, communication skills and demeanor were the key to the timely and successful completion of the sale of our home at asking price from listing to closing in less than 8 weeks. I have moved over a dozen times and no Realtor has been better. I strongly recommend you select Julie and Pat to represent you in your next home selling or buying experience.

Dynamic Duo! Kevin and Mary R.

Want the Best? Ask for Julie and Pat Warren, the Warren Group Sarasota! We listed our home in the very competitive market of Lakewood Ranch, Florida. Julie and Pat's aggresive and professional marketing plan resulted in numerous showings and a multiple offer situation. It started with professional photos by one of Sarasota's top photographers, which gets buyers to the home. Julie and Pat take it from there and show the home to each prospective buyer, highlighting all the best aspects of the property. They don't just stick a lockbox on the front door like many Realtors do and allow unescorted showings. They actually sell the home! Julie and Pat are extremely competent, professional, caring and understanding. They were a pleasure to work with, readily available and went over and above what was expected. The Warrens understand that a home sale is stresful and they help you through the entire process to ensure it goes smoothly. We highly recommend the dynamic duo of Julie and Pat Warren.

Exceptional - Personal - Professional! Gareth and Iva D.

Exceptional - Personal - Professional Easy to work with from start to finish...! Great communication no matter how trivial, professional and dynamic with a personal touch, and slice of humor, topping the experience off. Great eye for detail when it come to showing your home. Understanding ones needs, thorough and energetic with an additional "spark", that makes the difference...! The whole process for me, "2 sales and a purchase" was a lot easier working alongside their exceptional expertise... Both Julie and Pat were an absolute joy to work with...! Friends for life... I would not hesitate in recommending The Warren Group to anyone. A++

Julie turned out to be the ideal real estate agent! Margie and Mike H.

I can't speak highly enough about Julie Warren. Julie turned out to be the ideal real estate agent: professional, hard-working, well-informed and always willing to go above and beyond the call of duty to help make our dream of owning a waterfront home in Florida a reality. My husband and I live over 2,000 miles away, in Colorado. From the very beginning, Julie made everything so much easier. Over the past year she sent us regular updates with new property listings. She provided us with market analysis and reports for the Gulf beaches area. She sent photos and did FaceTime tours so when we came to town we could stay focused on the homes we liked. We are so grateful for Julie's ability to creat a "win-win" scenario for all parties. Specifically when we had an inspection issue and could have lost the deal, Julie stepped in and worked with the seller to resplve every issue. Julie and Pat treated us like family from start to finish and we enthusiastically recommend them to anyone!

Julie is by far the best Realtor I've ever worked with! Kim E.

Where do I begin? Julie is by far the best Realtor I've ever worked with! She's professional, trustworthy, hardworking and just an all-around amazing person! She and Pat made our purchase seamless and easy. They took care of every detail and I never had to worry about any part of our home buying process. Julie is not only a great Realtor but she makes you feel like family: your biggest purchase becomes her biggest project. I never felt like I was working with a business associate. I felt like I was working with family. I could not give her any higher recommendation than being the best! I've bought 7 homes in my lifetime and would never entrust my home to another Realtor after working with Julie. She WILL find you your perfect home, not the home she wants you to have. She understands it's not just a house, it's your home, your refuge. Do yourself a favor and use Julie Warren for your realty needs. I promise you will be be disappointed. Julie is a HOME finder, not just a Realtor!

Professional, passionate and patient!!! Robert and Lisa C.

Professional, passionate and patient!!! Julie and Pat are amazing real estate professionals. They go above and beyond to find the perfect home for you. After all, looking for a home is a little like a Goldilocks and the Three Bears quest. But, be assured Julie and Pat will work diligently to find you the home that is "Just Right!" We could not be happier with our purchase. We would (and have!) wholeheartedly recommend them to our friends and family!

Julie and Pat are like having a 24 hour concierge for Real Estate! Lauren and Howard A.

We wanted to find a property on Longboat Key with everything we were looking for within 2 weeks! We hired Julie & Pat to see if they could make it happen, knowing it may be impossible considering all the things we wanted, the time frame we wanted and at the right price! We are happy to say, the goal was accomplished! The did tons of research to find a home that checked all the boxes, sent us information quickly, got us in to see the properties, made several offers, drew up contracts, had lots of negotiations and in the end, got it done! They understood our needs and worked day and night to make sure our needs were met with ease. For example, I would be on a call with Julie while Pat was looking up information I asked about and they would get me the answers before we hung up the phone! Julie and pat have the patience, knowledge and ability to get the job done right! They're amazing!

Barbara B. on her home sale

Julie and Pat always had a positive attitude and work ethic. Always on time and follows through. Just pure pleasure working with this group, Would highly recommend. Very professional services throughout the entire process!

Linda and Kent H. on their Lakewood Ranch move

We sold our home in 20 days using Julie and Pat Warren, Real Estate Advisors. We met Julie & Pat in our local area and decided to have them list our home when we made the decision to downsize. From day 1 until closing they were professional, precise and gave great timely direction and advice. Actually, there were two closings, as Julie and Pat helped us navigate the selection and purchase of our new home as well. They even helped us select a great moving company! We had been in our home for 16 years so we hadn't dealt with real estate issues in a while, but we were quickly reminded of the twists and turns that can arise in the process of selling and buying. It was very comforting to have both Julie and Pat seemingly on call and available to return our calls rapidly and answer questions or concerns we might have. We don't expect to be in the real estate market again soon, but if we do, one of the most important decisions is already made...Julie and Pat Warren would be our Realtors!

Happy client after 5 transactions! Leslie and Steve A.

Growing up as the daughter of a Realtor, appreciation of what makes a great Realtor is ingrained. Dealing with Pat surpasses all expectations! On the selling side, Pat gives prompt and thorough feedback, is present at all showings, and is knowledgeable in answering questions of prospective buyers. He is a great negotiator in the selling process, providing appropriate input to help close the sale. On the buying side, Pat provides complete information while allowing us space to come to our own conclusions, without hovering. Pat is assertive without applying any sense of pressure. Either buying or selling, dealing with Pat is a good experience. As a result, we've used him on 5 transactions and would not hesitate to use him in the future!

Our experience with Julie and Pat was Outstanding all around.

Julie and Pat had an intimate knowledge of our particular market area and were able to direct our actions in an expertly manner with regard to what was on the market, what sold recently and the start and end prices for the property. They also advised us on how to de-clutter our house for the best results, how to photograph our home-inside-outside and from the air. Their efforts paid off as we were able to sell our house at the end of one week for cash and at our listed price.
Fred P. (Seller) on 28 Jul 2022

Incredibly knowledgeable and delightful personality made the whole process a breeze

Buying a home is often a traumatic experience. Our journey was made so much easier by the expertise of Julie and her team. She has an amazing personality and was so easy to get along with. We always seemed to be on the same page. Communication was amazing and there was never a time that a question went unanswered. We felt we could call any time and our call would be responded to promptly. Julie was always professional and took the time to ensure we were confident in our purchase as well as all the details specific to a Florida home sale. We were shown quite a few homes and Julie was always honest about their good and bad features. I felt as though we were being assisted to find the home of our dreams as opposed to a quick sale so she could move on to the next client. Her knowledge of the local area was extensive and really helped to narrow down more specifically which communities to focus on based on our wish list. I would not hesitate to recommend her to all of my friends and family.
