Anthony Lazzara

Anthony Lazzara - Letters of Recommendation11/28/2015Fantastic agent, very patient and never once pushed us or attempted to sell us on a property. He stuck with us and even helped research several interests and concerns, eventually getting us where we are today, comfortable and very happy in our home! That search was six years ago and since then weve gone to Anthony several times to purchase investment properties. Hes always steered us away from bad investments and helped us find the good properties. Honesty and patience, we couldnt ask for more! Terry A. Wright, M.B.A., PMP12/15/2015I have referred around 10 of my clients and close friends over a period of 12 years. He is the go to guy as far as I am concerned. They have told me that he relentlessly follows through on details, he is prompt and persistent to notify his clients of good or bad news, and he is a tough negotiator. He is the model professional Realtor.Jim Maddrey12/1/2015We had two previous realtors who were sub- par when we were looking for a house. Lazzara came highly recommended by one of my colleagues who was an appraiser who worked with him. We found Lazzara to be extremely thorough and responsive. He was quick in getting back to us on all matters and the purchase of the home that he helped us find went very smoothly thanks to him. I recommended him to two other people, a friend and a colleague, and they were also very satisfied. We have listed our rental home for sale with him and he made the process stress free and efficient. I would recommend him without reservation to anyone needing an attentive realtor.Terri FoxJuly 3, 2014TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:Anthony Lazzara of Charles Rutenberg Realty has been our realtor/representative for almost a year in my family's search for a home in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. Without hesitation or sign of impatience, and always with a cheerful attitude, Anthony has sought to find the perfect Florida home to suit the somewhat peculiar needs of our family, which has a handicapped mother with special needs, including lack of mobility.(continued) Each time I requested a specific type of house in a specific area, Anthony unfailingly sent us appropriate lists of homes meeting these requirements along the Tampa-Southwest Florida coast. We were pleasantly surprised at the number and quality of beautiful homes in these areas.When we begin our home search anew in a year or two, we will definitely request that Anthony be our realtor again. Both my wife and I look forward to working with him in person as we visit Florida and have him show us around.Howard D. Everett7601 Allspice RunNorman, OK 73026 1/19/13 Reference letter for Anthony LazzaraIt is with pleasure that I recommend Anthony Lazzara. He skillfully brokered the sale of my housein Tampa and the purchase of my new condo in Dunedin. I interviewed several realtors, but Anthonystood out for two reasons: first, his quick and through response to my specific questions and requirements and second, his extensive knowledge of the Tampa Bay real estate market.Anthony listened carefully to what I needed and explained a sales strategy that would attract thewidest range of suitable buyers. He quickly followed through on all the details (door lock and For Sale sign). Best of all, he wrote a marvelous listing description of my house and took professionalquality photos to enhance the listing. In less than 24 hours of listing the property online a buyer responded with a legitimate offer which I accepted.When difficulties arose, as they always do with real estate deals, Anthony offered me clear options that allowed me to move forward with confidence and ease. Anthony was reliable, patient, flexible and always available. He emailed me many viable listings and consulted with the sellers agents about my must haves before setting up viewings. This saved me time and expedited the search.From start to finish Anthony protected my interests. He is a realtor you can trust and depend upon to focus clearly on your needs. I wholeheartedly recommend him without any reservations. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.Gladys Garcia (813) 713-0751TO: Whom It May Concern 4/30/12FROM: Rick and Astrid ColeySUBJECT: Realtor Anthony LazzaraAnthony Lazzara was referred to us by a mutual acquaintance to address our needs in finding a lease property. We made a corporate move to Tampa from Forth Worth, TX on very short notice, and we needed to find a place large enough and with a fenced yard for our family of 3, plus 2 dogs and a cat. As we are very discerning in our needs and desires for a comfortable and secure home, we looked at dozens of properties before finally settling on a leased home. Anthony was always very willing to show us homes, often at odd hours and on Sundays (due to our work schedules), and he was more than patient when a home just didnt click for us. He was thorough in his knowledge of the market in the various parts of the Tampa area in which we searched.Later, after we sold our home in TX, we began to search for a home to purchase. Again, Anthony accompanied us to dozens of homes, ever willing and patient. He knew the area we wanted to settle in, and he concentrated on the market there. With Anthonys help we soon found a wonderful home, with lots of upgrades and special touches, and that met all of our needs. Anthony attended the home inspection, ensured the listing agent and the former owners completed the suggested repairs, and he accompanied us to the closing at the title company to ensure we were properly represented and completely satisfied. Wed like to take this opportunity to thank Anthony for his service as realtor to us, and for his patience, professionalism, and friendship through it all.Rick and Astrid Coley - Valrico, FLApril 18, 2011Working with Anthony has been a wonderful experience. He is extremely trustworthy and conscientious about the needs of his clients. If we buy any more real estate, we will definitely use him again.Peggy GriffithsFebruary 6, 2008Buyers and Sellers The Real Estate Community in the Tampa Bay Area By this letter we wish to state the extremely rewarding experience in buying our first Tampa home. The credit goes entirely to Anthony (Tony) Lazzara, our agent in the search and purchase of the residence. Tony not only provided exceptional leads in the area of our interest, but was an outstanding negotiator on our behalf in today's challenging market. Tony was also instrumental in securing sources for upgrades and property improvements after closing that saved us considerable time and expense. We have bought and sold numerous properties in Washington, D.C., Florida, and Arizona over the years and can attest that Tony Lazzara is the best of the best! Sincerely, Robert R. Kelley and Timothy E. MikelsFebruary 7, 2008I would like to say that it was a wonderful experience working with Anthony Lazzara. He helped us buy our first Florida home.After working with him for two years coming back and forth from North Carolina, he was very patient and always ready and willing to help us out when we were in the area to look at homes.He kept us updated on available homes that fit our style by phone and email. When we finally moved to Florida he was right there waiting with a list. We love the house he helped us find. No one could ask for a better agent. Michael Hatch and Tina HatchJanuary 1, 2006Dear Tony,Now that things have settled down from the holidays, I want to take a moment to thank you for your success in selling my property in Temple Terrace.I believe that I told you the story of when I began thinking about selling the property that I happened to mention it to our mutual friend and he in turn referred me to you. He said that I could trust you in handling the transaction. He was right.Personally, it was a most difficult year for me and I was not looking forward to the stress that comes with selling property. However, from our first meeting you took care of everything and made the entire process appear seamless, and you kept me informed every step of the way, from having the property surveyed, to the posting and finally the closing, plus a dozen little details in between that you spared me from having to worry about. As you remember it was only a matter of weeks after the property was listed that we had a solid and final offer. It was a done deal in such a short period of time!I thank you so much for all that you did and in the manner in which you did it. In the future if I hear of anyone in need of real estate services I will be happy to refer them to you. I wish you well. Thanks again.Sincerely,Kay Davis August 2005Dear Tony,We want to thank you so much for helping us find the perfect house. As newcomers to Florida we had no idea what parts of town we should consider and you really helped us narrow it down with all of your experience as a realtor in the Tampa area.What impressed us most about your service was your extreme patience with us as we looked at countless homes in the Tampa area. Most realtors would have tried to force us into something just to be done. You, however, didn't do that. You let us take our time and gave us the room to make the decision that was right for us.We really enjoyed the house buying experience and feel that your professionalism and insights were a significant factor in our decision and subsequent high level of satisfaction.We look forward to working with you again when (and if) we move again. You're the best!Maria & Jay ScottTony,We wanted to thank you for all the work you did in getting our house sold. Especially with both Susan and I being out of town for so much of the time, it was really nice to know that someone was looking out for the house as well as our interests.Coming home after one of this year's hurricanes and finding the tree limbs already cleaned up wascertainly a relief.We feel we were extremely lucky in having you as part of the team selling our home.Scott StroudHi Rita,Just a note to let you know I was happy with the way Tony handled my house sale from beginning to end. He was professionally organized and kept very good notes. I enjoyed meeting you at the closing.Thank You, Wanda
