Being a Southwest Florida REALTOR® gives me great pleasure in helping you make your dreams come true in finding YOUR piece of paradise! I specialize in residential and seasonal properties, from single family homes to condos and villas. I specialize in Venice, Nokomis, Sarasota, Osprey, Englewood, North Port, Port Charlotte, and Punta Gorda, but I can go beyond these areas. We have wonderful free beaches and most are within 15-30 minutes from any sister city. I'm very proud to live in this beautiful region where breathtaking beaches, serene parks, accessible waterways, and abundant wildlife surround us everyday. Our cities offer that small town feeling, but with amenities of bigger cities. Venice was recently named #2 Happiest Seaside Town in the United States by Coastal Living, while Forbes ranked Venice among the top 25 places to retire in Florida. Siesta Key, with its baby powder white sand, is constantly ranked as one the most beautiful beaches in America!

Since 1998 Carol Burke has been serving the real estate community starting in Hampshire, England as an Estate Agent then continuing in 2004 to the Sarasota Florida area as a Licensed Real Estate agent. Her experience comes not only from living abroad, including England and France but also having lived in Pennsylvania, Texas, Oregon and New Hampshire and learning first-hand what it’s like to be a buyer coming to a completely unfamiliar area. Carol realizes that it takes more than just book knowledge and how to write a contract but familiarity with the areas, a network of trusted business partners, real estate fluctuations and most importantly a human connection to the customer she is serving. Allow Carol to help you discover your dream and navigate through the many options. There are so many choices for buyers. You can live by the beach, choose a golfing or tennis community or how about a trendy urban condo or out east country living including properties for equestrian enthusiasts? Let’s not forget the many choices boaters have with dedicated boating communities featuring canals in your back yard or a neighborhood marina. Sellers will appreciate the attention to detail and the marketing that is required to attract these buyers. Living her life as a “nomad” in her earlier days also taught her how important a trusting relationship is with the real estate professional handling your purchase and Carol is ready to be that person for you!
