My Family and Our Community
How fortunate I feel to call Sarasota home. It is the perfect place to live with the beauty of nature surrounding us and the sophistication of the city within easy reach. As a GREEN realtor, I also understand the importance of protecting our fragile natural environment for future generations. For the past 15 years, I have been actively involved in several environmental and green-living organizations - Sustainable Sarasota, the Green Building Coalition and the Manatee-Sarasota Sierra Club.
In addition to my real estate designations, for the first 30 years of my professional life, I worked as an interior designer. My background with color, decoration and renovation is a gift I share with my buyers and sellers to optimize the potential in each house. Where others may see only problems, I can envision possibilities to solve almost any roadblock to a happy home buying or selling experience.
Despite the fact that the average age of Sarasota residents is getting younger every year, our area continues to be a desired retirement location for many seniors. With this in mind, I earned the Senior Real Estate Specialist degree to better address the changing needs and desires of the "boomers" and beyond. Transitioning into this phase of living can be one of the most rewarding times of our lives, so it will be my pleasure to help you make the best real estate decisions for YOU.
Living on Florida's Gulf Coast is a privilege...so giving back is the very least I can do to show my appreciation. By participating in Coldwell Banker's Residential Real Estate CARES program, I can help support a wide array of non-profit educational, health, welfare, environmental and cultural arts organizations. Since 2003, CARES has sponsored the building of dozens of Habitat for Humanity homes statewide, with several more in progress. This initiative allows Coldwell Banker to help qualified homeowners achieve the Great American Dream in partnership with this worthwhile organization!

As an agent who's an expert in this local area, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise about buying and selling real estate here. It's not the same everywhere, so you need someone you can trust for up-to-date information. I am eager to serve you. Here are some of the things I can do for you:
Find Your Next Home
You need someone who knows this area inside and out! I can work with you to find the right home at the right price for you, including all the neighborhood amenities that matter - not to mention the essential criteria you have for your ideal home
Sell a Home
When it's time to move, you need someone who will advertise your home, show to prospective buyers, negotiate the purchase contract, arrange financing, oversee the inspections, handle all necessary paperwork and supervise the closing. I can take care of everything you need, from start to close.
Consult on Home Selling Tactics
Oftentimes buyers don't visualize living in your home the way you do. I can make your home attractive to its ideal audience - which can help you get top dollar. Things like staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that's sold fast.

Testimonials
"Simply The Best! We've bought and sold several homes across the US. For most sales and purchases we've used real estate agents. Ginger was by far our best agent for both our recent sale and subsequent purchase. Her advice in pricing our house for sale, her willingness to hold open houses (pre Covid), her accessibility and quick response to our many and varied questions are just a few of the reasons we highly value and recommend Ginger when you plan to buy and/or sell your property.

-Diane Horn, Client
"I just want to commend Ginger on her professionalism, her knowledge of the market, her extroverted and kind personality, and her reliability. She is just a good person, and I had that sense as soon as I met her. I knew she'd be the right person to sell my condo. I'm so happy I found her. She is a huge asset to Coldwell Banker. My condo was a difficult one to market as the development is in the middle of a costly exterior renovation and condo fees are sky-high. Ginger took on the job, knowing it might be difficult to find a buyer. She did a fantastic job of marketing the condo, pricing it realistically, and negotiating a quick sale."
-Sally Gabriel, Client
"Ginger will work for and with you, and sell your property. For two years, I had dealt with three agents who got my listing then did almost nothing to sell it. I watched Ginger, a good friend for many years, earn her license and become a real estate agent. I was reluctant to work with a friend, but knew Ginger's honesty and integrity as a person and watched her sell our friend's condo in a short time. She is up to date on the market and in touch with prospective clients for properties that come up for sale. When I asked Ginger to sell my unit, it was the best decision I could have made. She knew a couple she thought would be interested, and the first day it was on the market, she brought them to see it. It was sold that morning. And there were calls from other interested buyers. Thank you, Ginger. What a delight to work with you. Verified by RateMyAgent"
