Walter and Amy Anaruk - (Buyers and Sellers)

 My family has completed four transactions (two houses bought and sold) with Jim and Gary.  No matter how much or how little we were planning to spend we were treated as if we were their only client.  They do a fantastic job of keeping you informed on all phases of buying or selling.

They didn't just sell the house.  They shepherd the entire process during all phases of purchase and sale - anticipating possible problems and staying prepared with solutions.  Because of their helpful guidance we have become very savvy home buyers.  We have moved away from the Tampa Bay area so we dealt with a different realtor for the first time.  We found that because of the guidance from Jim and Gary over the years, we were better than the first two realtors we worked with at gaging the state of a home's repair and value-to-market. Of his own volition, Jim did some research for us and referred us to a realtor in our new city who provided us with the kind of service and know-how we were accustomed to with Jim and Gary.  So even without hope of profit, Selling Florida Realty took the time to do what they have always done for us - make sure we were taken care of.     Walter and Amy Anaruk

Josh & Maria Booker- NE St Petersburg (Buyer)
As first time home buyers we were completely confused on where to start in the process. When we found our home on Jim's website, Jim arranged a viewing with the owner and after the offer was accepted Jim referred us to a great mortgage lender who managed to lock us in before the rates soared an entire percent. Jim then recommended an amazing inspector who made time for questions before and after the inspection. Lastly, Jim & Gary both made the closing process so easy that all we had to do was show up and sign. This was by far the easiest move we have ever made and the fair price made it all the more worth it. We will definitely refer friends and family to Selling Florida Realty for future purchases.

 
 
 

Suzanne Buehler - Largo (Seller)


Jim and Gary,

 

I appreciate all you did for me when selling my house.  You put up with my "almost daily" phone calls and held my hand throughout the whole process.  This was the first time I had used a Realtor to sell so I probably drove you crazy with questions.  It was a pleasure to work with the two of you.  I wouldn't hesitate to use you again if I were in the area.  Best of luck to you both.           Suzanne Buehler

 
Ken & Jan Coonce - Palm Harbor (Buyer)
Thanks for the nice note. It has been a great experience working with you and your team and we will certainly keep in touch as we look for a home on a lake or the gulf. I especially appreciate the time and effort you took to work with our daughter Jenny. Your direction and help certainly moved her to select the right home.   Thanks Again,    Ken & Jan

Josh & Gabby DuBois - Trinity (Buyers)
Thank you so much for all your help with finding us the perfect home. We appreciate your time and efforts tremendously. You both are go getters and that's exactly what we needed. Keep up the great job you do and we are looking forward to seeing you again . Maybe we can get together and have dinner or just hang out.      Josh and Gaby

Steve Esposito - Clearwater (Buyer)
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Jim Dishman for the excellent help and expert advice he provided to me before, during, and after my home purchase. Jim and his assistant Janice answered all of my questions in an accurate, timely and professional manner. After hearing horror stories from other people and about the problems they had at their own closings with other agents, I am happy to say that my closing went off on time and without a hitch. I would highly recommend Jim for any future real estate transactions!    Take care,    Steve Esposito
John & Ann Heller - Port Richey (Sellers)
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for all the help that you have given us this year in selling my Mother's House...our House and sending us to the Realtor here in Anderson who would find us our BEAUTIFUL "DREAM" home.... Not only did you all handle our business so professionally ...you handled it with "Kindness and Tenderness" knowing how difficult a year it has been for us.... and for that...there is no school to teach you ....it HAS to come from the heart.....
And so with the closing of our house today.....and the closing of a very "crazy" year for us....We would like to thank you from our hearts for all your help... I will most certainly miss your assistant, Janice's "HAPPY" voice on the phone.....She brightened my day whenever we spoke.  Merry Christmas to you and yours,
John and Anne Heller
Jean Hitchcock - Holiday (Buyer)
I really enjoyed working with RE/MAX. Jim Dishman went above and beyond for me in trying to find the perfect house. I am not the easiest person to sell anything to but Jim looked and looked until he found something he knew I would like and would feel comfortable and safe in. Thanks Jim, I love my little house.
Carmelita Kiley - Clearwater (Seller)
I am happy to say that your service was fast, efficient and stress-free for me. Thank you for such a simplistic and quickly expedited sale.

Maureen Martin - Pinellas Park (Seller)
Mr. Dishman handled the sale of my property in a very professional manner. He actually found the buyer for it as well. He has lender contacts and was able to assist us all to provide a very smooth transaction. I have referred him to several others and would do so again. Thanks for a very pleasant experience.
Rich & Debbie Miller - Clearwater (Buyer)

Thank you and the entire Selling-Florida.com Realty team for helping us find our second home in Clearwater, Florida.  The service we received from you as buyer's agents went well beyond our expectations and we would certainly recommend you to anyone who is looking for the best.  The casual observer may think that you were just doing your job, however, we can assure then that our situation was an extremely challenging one that one the cream of the crop buyer's agents could work through to a successful end.   Expert advice on specific areas, comparative cost analysis, personal visits by the buyer's agents to prospective properties (since we were out of state at the time), etc. all added to a successful experience when trying to find a property fromn a great distance away.  Thank you again for the great service.
Rich and Deb

 

Cheryl Ogilvie and Robin Zelent   (Seller)

We just wanted to send a quick note to thank you all for your personal attention in the sale of our father's home.  I believe when the home was listed it was approximately 13 days before we had an offer.  Jim was always available to answer questions and to make my sister and myself feel comfortable in our decision.  Jim's group made every effort by taking great photos and descriptions of the house.  As we were out of state and the buyer was out of state, to make this sale as quickly as we did had to have been to the trust and knowledge of these people.

Robin and I thank you for making this sensitive and emotional choice an easier one.   
                                     Respectfully,  Cheryl Ogilvie and Robin Zelent


Pam Perko - Dunedin (Buyer)
Thanks for all your hard work in helping me and my parents purchase this house. You guys really did a great job getting everything done, making this purchase so easy for me and my family.
Thanks Again,    Pam Perko

Mr. Mc - Clearwater (Buyer)
Our purchase turned out to be more problematic than we thought
since we live out of country and coordinating meetings, getting original signatures, etc. was a bit more complicated than expected.  The entire staff at Selling-Florida.com Realty were
very patient and extremely helpful.  Thanks everyone.


Jacquelyn Smith - Brandon (Buyer)
I would like to tell the world all about my house.
Jim, you and your assistant Janice and Chris(our lender) and the way you all helped me in buying my home and by how you made me feel about buying a house was really great.
I tell people everyday about you all. Please keep in touch so that I can send my friends to you.
Thanks again,   Jackie

Kathleen and John J. Smith - Sun City, AZ (Sellers)
Using Jim Dishman was the best decision that my husband and I made when we decided to list our house. We had unusual circumstances and needed to sell quickly to move to Arizona. We told him we were in a rush and that we needed to get things settled ASAP. We sold our house and had a closing and moved out within 6 weeks with a fair price for ourselves and the buyer. Jim took all questions and requests serious. He followed up on everything we asked him to do. If I ever move back to Florida and need to buy again, I will not hesitate to look Jim Dishman up to help me in our needs again. It was the best experience I think you could have selling your home!
Paul Sullivan - Clearwater (buyer)

Jim,  Congratulations on going out on your own.  TX for not allowing me to purchase a mobile/manufactured home.  2462 Brazilia Dr. #14 is a concrete fortress, which I feel very safe in.  I'm very please with my purchase. Again congratulations & a BIG TX.  If anyone approaches me in regards to RE you are the man.  Paul S.

Dahlia Stinson - New Port Richey (Buyer)

Jim was GREAT! Here it is only May 3. It was two weeks ago today that I first met him, and here we have closed the sale, and I am already moved into my new home. How great is that?  
Jim was fantastic!
Ron Thaden - St. Petersburg (Seller)
I would like to thank Jim and his team for making the sale of my home easy and stress-free. Everything was handled quickly and very professionally. Jim answered all of my questions and worked very hard to make sure that the buyer and I were happy. Janice was very friendly and helpful. She helped keep me, the buyer, the title agency, and everyone else coordinated and made everything run smoothly. Joyce handled the closing and helped ease my worries about the title situation I had. When I'm ready to buy my next home, Jim Dishman will be the agent I call. I recommend him to anyone buying or selling a house.   Ron

Tia Williams - New Port Richey (Buyer)
I did not know where to begin but Mr. Dishman was quick to respond, knew all the ropes & made things easy. He worked with my time schedule & the lender he referred me to was great. I love my 1st home & highly recommend him to anyone.   Thanks so much,   Tia
