Ed Martinez,

Teri and I want to thank you for the time and effort you, and your wife dedicated to assisting us in finding our new home. Karen, your persistence, and diligence will always be appreciated and remembered. Ed, your professionalism, dedication, and availability will not be forgotten. Ed, at the conclusion of this lengthy, and sometimes stressful process, I always felt as though we not only had a realtor working with us, but an advocate for us.

Ed did a great job getting my home sold. He was persistent and dedicated from start to finish. I even walked away with $3000 more then I expected!

Mr. Martinez and his team sold my house in under 2 wks for the amount I'd quoted for the house. He inspected it, fixed a few cosmetic things, explained how the process worked and promptly sold it. He is bilingual (Spanish and English) and a Christian who goes the extra mile to help his clients with contracts, insurance, WHATEVER THEY NEED. I found him to be highly experienced having sold property in VA decades ago. Mr. Martinez is not only kind but polite, respectful, patient, honest and caring....qualities you seldom come across in today's fast paced world. He has an excellent network of associates that will step in to help at his request in different fields: banking, insurance, appraisals, inspections, etc. I wouldn't go with any one else but the Martinez Team and I hope you give them a try as they will surpass any other team in Sarasota.

Ed and his team worked with us for a long period of time before we bought our home. They were always there with a smile and always there when we needed them. They know what's on the market at all times. It's your help that they need the most to narrow down what you really like and want. So many different areas to choose from down here. We would recommend them for any buy or sell in the future. Thanks again Ed and Karen!

friendly and professional ,ready to go the extra miles it takes to close on short sales, lots of knowledge in all aspects of real estate, pleasure to do business with the ED MARTINEZ family of realtors. Thanks ED

I would like to thank you both for the great job you did for me on the purchase of my condo in St. Pete. From the first time I talked to Karen on the phone, to the closing, you two made me feel as though I was as important purchasing a lower priced condo as someone who would purchase a million dollar property. I sure appreciated you doing the walk thru for me and taking all the pics since I wasn't going to be able to come back down from Pa. for the closing. I was impressed with you keeping me abreast of every detail thru the process and when there was a problem with the condo association, you took the time to go from Sarasota to St. Pete to handle the situation. I enjoyed working with you both and looking forward to getting together with you when I am moved in the condo!

Ed Martinez was very professional with all of the details of the contract and with the whole selling process of my home. He was always there to answer my questions and the contract potion was explained clearly and made easy to understand. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell their home.

Ed is a very professional and fair agent. He helped me list my condo unit when I thought I had to make a short sale on it. Later, He helped me out of that deal to keep my home on a loan modification. I would truly recommend him to anyone buying or selling a home!

Ed helped us tremendously to focus on exactly the homes with the items we requested. None of our time was wasted which was great since we hadn't moved to Sarasota yet and our time on our visits was limited. He and his wife Karen sent us a lot of listings ahead of time so that we felt like we had really done a thorough search and could be confident that we were purchasing the right house. After and before the contract was signed he went above and beyond to make sure that all the little issues were worked out and that we got all the information we could on the house, contractors that had worked on it over the years, association rules and regulations, etc. Ed and Karen are a great team and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a home, condo, etc. in the Sarasota area.

The decision to short sell our home was a very, very stressful one. From the moment Ed and his team took over, the stress level began to quickly dissipate. Ed knew the process from all sides and accurately advised us on what we could expect every step along the way. He discussed and negotiated all issues for us which made this entire, otherwise grueling, process easy and comfortable. Kudos to Ed and his team! You have truly been a blessing to our family and you will be our 'only' realtor moving forward.

Ed is very easy to work with. He listens to his clients and understands their needs. He isn't pushy and lets the client set the pace. He is very knowledgeable with the sales process and helped use from start to finish. Ed went above what most real estate agents are required to do. We felt comfortable calling him simple or complex questions. He is very approachable and always friendly. We would definitely recommend him to friends and family.

Ed & his team Helped me sell a home FAST! I have had to sell a property in USA while living in UK while nursing my wife through a terminal disease. Ed has been absolutely brilliant. He is tactful, completely trustworthy, sensitive to client needs and extremely efficient - but without being pushy. I recommend him without reservation. If ever I want to buy another property in USA then he will definitely be my first port of call.

Ed is the best! His knowledge and expertise helped me find my Water-Front Dream home. I could not have done it without him. I have worked with other realtors and can honestly say Ed is fantastic!

My wife and used Ed Martinez to buy our first home. Now that we're growing our family we'll be using him again to find our dream house. Ed and his associates are very knowledgable about the market and the area. A pleasure to work with

We came to Sarasota and just had a couple of days to look at houses. We had asked to see a couple of dozen houses. Ed and Karen were very patient with us. They took us to see everything we had asked to see and more. They gave up their Sunday to accommodate our tight schedule. We ended up finding a house and they helped us buy the house on our timeline. They showed great negotiating skills and helped with insurance, pool maintenance and many other open issues we had. I highly recommend them and intend to use them again. Thanks again Ed and Karen.

Ed Martinez was recommended to us when we first began looking for a place in Florida. He lived up to his recommendation and was honest, hard-working, and knowledgeable in all matters presented. We also enjoyed working with his wife, Karen, who sent listings and answered questions until we found the townhome of our dreams.

YOU HAVE ARE AN EXCELLENT AGENT, AND IT WAS A PLEASURE DEALING WITH YOU IN THE PURCHASE OF MY CONDO IN ST. PETES, FLORIDA, IF ANYONE WANT TO PURCHASE YOU ARE THE MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
