I have to say that I was very pleased with the purchase and especially Marci McFarland as my realtor. During the process, we were getting push-back from the seller not wanting to correct a permitting/hot water heater issue that he had created in the condominium. Marci was firm and held her ground against the seller, his son-in-law and their realtor, and refused to let them slide past the issue as they were trying to do. I was so impressed with her knowledge and resolve, and will definitely recommend her.
I want to underline the excellent job done by Marci when we were looking for a villa earlier this year. She listened carefully to understand our needs and then directed us towards villas meeting all our criteria. Despite her busy agenda, she was always available and even helped us better integrate the Sarasota community by providing us interesting information on shops, restaurants and interesting areas around town. To Marci and the entire Michael Saunders Team, a sincere thank you.
Marci McFarland is a tribute to Michael Saunders & Company policies and what it stands for. She was always available to us and took an interest in the house we had for sale. We have recommended her to some of our friends who will be interested in selling their houses in the coming year. Her attitude was one of friend not a stranger. She was a wonderful person to deal with, we were extremely happy with Marci.
Our agent, Marci McFarland, was the ultimate professional from beginning to end. She was ethical and showed great integrity, was never pushy but was always prepared and ready to answer any question we might have which made for a relationship and friendship that we cherish. Marci’s recommendations and resources were all topnotch, too. I first met Marci, probably two years ago, at an open house she was holding for another Michael Saunders & Company agent. She was very impressive and although we were just thinking about eventually buying, I put her name in my phone, came home and told my husband that Marci would most likely be my choice of agents when we got serious. Open houses do work even if that house isn’t the one sold. Marci listened to our wish list and I ‘m sure at first thought we were dreaming. Well, dreams do come true and ours did. She kept encouraging us to see Beach Road and from the moment we walked in, it felt like home and now it is! We would highly recommend Marci and Michael Saunders & Company to friends and family. Thank you for a job well done!
I would like to inform you of our deep appreciation of Marci McFarland. We have never seen a Broker work so hard to please a client. She went out of her way on numerous occasions to help us out. We have nothing but positive things to say about her.

Ms McFarland was an absolute delight to work with. She always went above and beyond what you would expect for a real estate agent. Marci was very knowledgeable about the market in the Sarasota area. She worked with us through THREE offers over a time span of nearly a year. When we were in town she was always available to show us homes, and she never let us lose hope of finding the perfect house for us. There were many times that Ms. McFarland worked weekends, holidays, and evenings just to accommodate our visits from out of state. She was very perceptive about what we wanted in a home, and she had a great eye to show the best homes accordingly. She also was great to point out the potentials of every home we looked at to help us make the best decision for us. Marci also was great to offer names of inspectors that she had worked with in the past that made sure we were making a good financial decision. She helped us find an amazing quality home at a great value with her negotiation skills. She was a strong negotiator. Where we had to close from out of state, she made the closing effortless and very easy. We felt very lucky to have Marci McFarland to join us to find our new dream home in Sarasota.
Marci was a pleasure to work with… She is an excellent communicator, quick responder even at late times, as we are 3 hours behind. Marci is an outstanding collaborator to come up with brainstorms and thinking outside the box. Throughout the process, we always felt that she had our 6, her patience level especially with the builder and salesperson of DWH was incredible. She is an asset to your company and we hope she is well acknowledged for it.Kind Regards,Claudia Bridgham
Marci once again hit it out of the ball park! She ushered us through the sale of our first retirement home in Florida that she was instrumental in negotiating the purchase of 10 years ago. We are as impressed now as we were then by her professionalism, knowledge, and care. This is a crazy market, but Marci was undaunted and confident in her strategy. It was shock and awe on our part to watch the pieces come together. Another successful settlement! Thank you, Marci!
We are very pleased in the way that Marci handled this short sale. After meeting with Marci we went to the house and she said that it would be perfect for a short sale, as we had left the house in pristine condition. With some price negotiating the house sold fairly quickly. We were extremely pleased with Marci’s professional expertise and knowledge of the short sale process. She kept us informed of the progress of the sale and we found her to be a very caring person. We would most certainly recommend Marci any time the chance arises.
How fortunate for me to select Marci McFarland as my listing agent! She created an excellent slide show (which my children strongly approved) and other publicity. Then, she staged my home using my own items. She voluntarily took action way beyond her job description, cleaning out the refrigerator/freezer, and offering to take this client to the ER (in response to the client’s MD’s instruction). Marci deserves a “superior” rating for her performance in my case. And the cherry on the sundae is that Marci is a genuinely great person!
Well, it is a pleasure to tell you that we are extremely satisfied with the support and expertise provided by our agent, Marci McFarland. We could see she is very experienced and professional, but what impressed us the most was her availability and guidance throughout the process of putting our villa for sale and of course, the transaction itself. We will not hesitate to request her service again in the future or to recommend her to family and friends if an opportunity presents itself. So a “sincere thank you” Marci for your excellent work with us.
Had a plan to achive maximum results Did an excellent job of working her plan. This is my 2nd transaction with Marci. Highly recommend!
On our first encounter with her she spent 2 grueling days driving us around to view existing homes and homesites. Marci was patient, informative, knowledgable of the area and extremely professional. However, Pam decided she was not ready to do the relocation thing after this visit. Marci remained very professional after hearing of this and continued to send listings to me via email on a monthly basis. When we re-contacted her this year and told her we were ready to begin a Florida home search again, she was eager to help and greeted us with open arms (however we had to wear a mask in the era of Covid). We are very satisfied with the service Marci has provided and would recommend her expertise to anyone we know who is interested in moving to the Sarasota area. Sincerely,Roland and Pam Nickoles
Marci McFarland was excellent. She was knowledgeable and helped us with the decision process. She was also very responsive to all of my questions. It was a pleasure to work with her. Because of that experience we retained your real estate management group to help us find a renter for our home for three months while we live in our rental near by.
