Team Lester

We chose Tim Lester Realty in Palmetto to help us find our new home in the Palmetto/Parrish/Ellenton area. Erin Barker was our buyer's agent and we couldn't have been happier. Erin expertly guided us through the search and responded quickly to every question or issue. She promptly replied to our numerous texts and calls, even when she was away on vacation. When we found the right house, Erin worked diligently to help secure the best deal. Erin also helped point us to local sources for services at the new home. We highly recommend Erin Barker and the team at Tim Lester- real estate done right!

I chose Tim Lester International Realty because I n Knew they were familiar with the area that I was interested in and they lived up to my expectations. I met with Mike Smoljanovich and he went right to work finding properties that fit my criteria. He was very efficient at setting up showings so that we could see several homes in a short amount of time, which I like, but never felt rushed and he was always on time. We found a buyer for my house and made an offer on a home that I liked and closed on both on the same day,same time and at the same location. It could not have been any easier. I know who I'm going to call when its time to sell and I can I highly recommend Mike and Tim Lester International Realty.

Mike Smoljanovich went above and beyond to help us find a beautiful home in West Bradenton. As I live in coastal NC, we emailed for months and were finally able to tour homes when my husband neared retirement. Although hubby delayed retiring, Mike kept communication open and Facetime toured our new home for us. We flew down and Mike made the entire process so much easier by wisely advising us during negotiations and ensuring that we found insurance as well as yard and pool maintenance. If you live in another state, contact Mike! Although we are 12 hours away, Mike took great care of us and was very low pressure. He wanted us to find the perfect location, and he fully delivered!

Ryan Tuttle did an outstanding job on the sell of our house. We have used Team Lester before and we knew everything would go well. Ryan has sold a house of ours in the past and everything went smooth as could be with no problems. Ryan also helped us purchase a home and it was truly a good experience. If we sell another house in the area we will definitely use Team Lester and Ryan Tuttle.

Nate Neri worked very closely with us to sell our house in Palmetto. He was very knowledgeable in every aspect of the sale, from listing to closing. His manner was always professional and helpful. We also received assistance from other members and highly recommend Team Lester associates for your real estate needs.

We sold our home in Bradenton in May of 2022. We were retiring and moving out of state. We went with Tim Lester Realty and Nate Neri was our realtor. We received an offer on our house in 2 days. I can't believe how easy it was. Nate was with us every step of the way. He told us exactly what to expect. We felt we could not have picked a better firm to represent us and get us the most money for our home. If we ever return to Florida and need to buy or sell, we will use this firm and Nate again.

Mike is a fantastic realtor as well as Tim Lester Realty. I highly recommend Mike Smoljanovich and Tim Lester Realty if you plan on buying a home in the West part of Florida. I am very impressed with Mike's professionalism, keeping up with constant communication and follow through. The entire experience was very professional , great ongoing communication and follow up throughout the entire new build and great follow through even after closing. Mike Smoljanovich our Tim Lester Realtor saved the day to help us buy our house in the Sun City Center area of Florida as there was no inventory within our price range in the West part of Florida . Our backs were agains the wall in Massachussets - where we just sold our house and just began our 2 month Use & Occupancy. I had just fired my other agent who was not moving fast enough. Within a day of choosing Mike through Tim Lester he had traveled out to the Lennar Cypress Mill Manor Development on a Saturday morning and saved the day. He called me that same Saturday afternoon and put me in touch with the Lennar Home Consultant for Cypress Mill - Manor development and the rest was history. The home was a new build that was exactly within our price range with no bidding war and we would be able to close within the exact date of our time frame with a great low mortgage rate. And Mike followed through with our major concerns not only up to closing but after closing. Which Lennar either has addressed or is currently correcting.

We both would like to express our gratitude for the time and the patience Peggy Johnson took helping us sell and find a new home. Peggy guided us with a professional and positive house hunting experience. She gave us prompt responses to questions, and inquiries.We are not sure how well we would have done without Peggy's professional knowledge, skill and experience. We would highly recommend Peggy as THE agent to help you find your new home.Paul and Elvira Everett
