" I decided I wanted to look for a place in Florida. A friend of mine has a place in Naples and really likes it so I decided to start my search there. He recommended Equity Realty. I went on the site to set up a search and was contacted by Angie Curkovic. We talked about what kind of place I was looking for and she set up several search runs for me. As I went through the searches I picked out ones the caught my eye and we further refined the searches to match the ones I liked. Once we had about a dozen properties selected, I flew down to Naples and met with Angie to look at them. It was a great experience. I learned what areas I liked and didn't like and we made an offer on a property. Unfortunately, I didn't get that one but I continued my search with Angie. It was much easier now because I had seen the developments in person and knew what I was looking for. A few weeks later, a new unit in my favorite development came on the market. I told Angie I was interested but couldn't come back down right away. She was able to do a video tour for me and the unit looked great. I put an offer in on it and with Angie's help was able to successfully negotiate a purchase. She handled all of the details for me. I flew down for a home inspection before settlement and the unit looked great. Angie also recommended a property manager for me since I intended to rent the unit out and he turned out to be great too. I was truly impressed with how nice Angie was to work with. She listened to my comments on the units we looked at and continuously updated my search to narrow in on what I was looking for. She was a pleasure to work with and I have already recommended her to friends."

“Working with Dawn was a stress-free process. We found her extremely knowledgeable of the various areas and developments in Naples we were considering. Being Canadians and a  bit unfamiliar with the closing process in Florida, Dawn took great care in explaining and answering our questions. She took care of all those things required to make for a painless purchase and closing. Dawn’s after-closing service was second to none. As a realtor myself for over 27 years, I can appreciate all the thought, hard work and efforts Dawn put into our purchase. We highly recommend her to everyone!”

Taso and Jenny Boussoulas

"We would highly recommend that you hire Dawn Colston as your realtor. We sold two and bought one house through her and were very pleased with her expertise. Communication is key, and Dawn kept us informed at all times. She is always on top of things, and kept us up to date of everything as it progressed. She is a very hard worker."

Jim and Mary Mach

"Dawn sets the bar for being a professional, always one step ahead; she is diligent in creating as much opportunity to view listings whether you're buying or selling. In a complicated business like real estate, this lady knows the meaning of integrity. You know you're in good hands when your broker refers to your property as "ours." We are fortunate to call her broker and friend."

Kim and Dennis Kubas

"Selling and buying a house can be a busy and stressful time. Dawn made us feel comfortable with all stages of the transaction. We felt all aspects of the property exchange were fair and disclosed. She represented our best interests. We would recommend Dawn’s services to everyone. When the next time for buying a home arises, we will definately use Dawn’s services."

Michael and Lisa Rogers

"Dawn is a no-none sense, approachable, out going person. We found her to be receptive to our needs and requests. One of the qualities we like about Dawn the most is that she doesn’t try to convince you to like something. We enjoyed her personality, business savvy and general knowledge of the communities in which we looked. We would actually be saddened to think we would not see or talk with her again. She deserves the highest marks, in our book!"

Bill and Barbara Hemmer

"Dawn’s prompt and professional consideration to any of our questions and concerns was greatly appreciated. The speedy sale of our home made our transition a smooth and easy one. We highly recommend Dawn’s services!"

Clare and Andy May

"We have found Dawn to be a smart negotiator, with an impressive ability to see the whole picture, but at the same time keep her eye on all the details that comprise it. She is also trustworthy and ethical, valuable traits in any business."

Betty and John Suprosky

“Thank you for all you did to make this deal close smoothly, and for the extra time and effort I asked of you with my questions which you so kindly researched and answered for me…you’ve gone beyond what one could expect.”

Irma C.

“Thanks a million Dwight. You have been a great support and source of wisdom…thanks again for your help and patience with us. It was a huge learning curve.”

Sharon L.

“…I just wanted to send you a quick email thanking you for all of your hard work and efforts in helping us find the perfect condo. Words cannot describe how much we appreciated your excellent representation, guidance and patience through our long search. I will certainly be strongly recommending you to anybody looking for a real estate agent in your area.”

Brian P.

"George and I came to search for a winter getaway without knowing much about the SW Florida market. Kip and Joanmarie held our hands and showed us a cross section of what was available within our budget and wish list. I would highly recommend them to anyone. I truly believe we would not have found our home away from home without their knowledge and guidance."

George & Suzanne, London, Ontario

“Kip and Joanmarie provided us outstanding service from the beginning. Whether it was finding us properties that matched our criteria, helping us to explore the Naples area, negotiating our purchase or supporting us after the close, their service was second to none. We can’t thank them enough for their efforts throughout the sales cycle and especially for the effort after the purchase was complete. It is rare to get the level of support we received after the sale was done.”

Jason, Wernersville, PA

"When we decided to move our family to Naples, Florida we had no idea where to begin. We had no family here and didn't know anybody. We were so lucky to get connected with the Lermanns! They helped us with every step of the moving process. They were so knowledgeable about the area, but beyond that, they understood our concerns, and our need to make this cross country transition as 'easy' as possible for the kids. They were always available to take our calls, answer our questions, and provide us with all the information necessary to purchase our home. From the first cross country phone call to the very last signature on our purchase agreement, Kip & Joanmarie Lermann of Naplesguru.com were fantastic to work with."

Sarah & Panos, Hinckley, OH

"Kip & Joanmarie,
Just wanted to send you a quick e-mail to let you know how much we are enjoying our new home here in Florida. As I'm sure you remember, for now we will still be traveling back to New Jersey periodically, but will eventually make this our permanent residence. Not only did you find the perfect match for us based on our needs, you were both so helpful in walking us through the whole purchase/closing process. Thanks again!"

George & B.J., Blackwood, NJ

"Dear Kip & Joanmarie Lermann, Team Lermann are knowledgeable and experienced in the real estate business. You did a great job of understanding our wants and needs to helps us find our dream home for our future retirement years. As a team you both complimented each other very well and provided Janice and I with great prompt service. You both know the Naples and surrounding areas very well as we visited almost twenty properties within a 3 day period. The upfront work you did prior to our trip down to Naples helped Janice and I feel the visit to Naples would be worth our time and money. In closing, we would not hesitate to use your services if needed. If you would like to use Janice or me as a reference we would be more than happy to do so.

John & Janice, Franklin, WI

I had been unsatisfied with a representative from a competing real estate company in that he was uniformed, no idea of where the condos were that he had lined up to be shown. No clue to the Association costs etc. It was a nightmare. I returned to Boston & went on line to find an alternative company that I could select when I saw your company & your name so I thought I would give your company a shot.
Josi Teeters was my contact that was selected. Within 24 hours she had found what I considered a good possibility for my needs. I had friends of mine that live in Foxfire view the property with Josi. They were of the opinion that this was a realistic choice for me to see. I arranged to fly down within a few days & met with Josi to view the property. Since that day there have been over 50 emails sent to me, at least 30 phone calls & countless text messages. She has proven to be an extension of your vision of the perfect person to represent your company. When I contacted her whether by voice, text or email she always got back to me in a very prompt manner. When I had issues that I needed to be solved she had an answer if not, she never faked it she got back to me promptly with either the good answer or one that I feared. She never sugar coated anything, she was honest, concerned & consummately professional in every single thing that she did & I had total trust in her without reserve. You were a wise man the day that you took her on board to represent you. I hope that she stays with your company for a long time to come.

"Sarah was so patient helping my newly relocated Dad and stepmother. Due to absolutely zero technological devices, I was the go-between for all communications and Sarah took the arrangements in stride and accommodated our special situation which, I'm sure, could be very frustrating in a fast-paced market. Dad arrived in Naples on Sunday, Sarah took them out on Monday and by Saturday they made an offer which was accepted! She then walked them through a very fast closing. Sarah is very diligent, knows the market and is extremely patient. She went above and beyond in helping my Dad and his wife find their new home in Florida. Thanks again, Sarah!"

Dawn R.

Sarah Willig assisted us both with the sale and purchase of our homes in Naples. She was, in a word, awesome! Sarah answered every question we had in a timely, efficient, and professional manner. She worked with us to find a property that met our needs and was well suited to our budget. Sarah is very knowledgeable and an exceptional real estate agent. If we ever need to move again, we will call Sarah."

M&AF

"Well, we did it, we managed to see a bunch of properties and make 2 offers within 1 marathon weekend thanks to Teddianne! Words can't even express exactly how fantastic she was for us! Had it not been for her efficiency, incredible patience, and knack for knowing exactly what we were looking for we would have never been able to accomplish what we did in a day and a half in Naples. She was determined to find the exact property and community for us and she did it in leading us to Lely. We consider ourselves so fortunate to have been teamed up with her so a world of thanks to Teddianne for her high level of professionalism, she is top notch!"

B. and F. Short, Somers Point, NJ

"I highly recommend Teddianne to everyone I know. She has helped me with the purchase of four properties thus far, and each time I've been impressed with her responsiveness, integrity and professionalism. She is very knowledgeable about the real estate market and prices, and resourceful when a problem arises. I wouldn't consider buying or selling a home without her assistance!"

M. Bandy, Naples, FL

"Hi Teddianne, Thanks so much for your help last week. Your thorough, professional approach to managing our home search resulted in a very successful trip. This is an extremely tough market for home buyers. Having someone with your experience and knowledge working with us really helped us to make some very critical decisions quickly and effectively.

D. Niles, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

"Thank you Teddianne, You were wonderful to work with in locating our condo in Naples. You stepped right in at the last minute filling in for a coworker. We talked by phone from our home state on a Thursday and by Monday you met us at our hotel with an organized plan for a very productive day. You were honest, supportive and we felt we could trust you to guide us. You gave us time to figure out what we wanted without us feeling pressured. You are knowledgeable about the different communities and with your help we were able to make an offer by the afternoon of the first day! You pulled it all together in a short time and helped us stay focused to meet our goal. Thank you so much."

Darlene and Bob, Cleveland, OH

"Dear Teddianne, We want to thank you for the professional and efficient manner in which you helped us find our vacation home. Your planning and attention to detail were apparent and appreciated. We most appreciated your listening to our preferences and your efforts to match the available properties to those desires. We are certain that were it not for your knowledge, we would not have successfully closed on the property. We will recommend you to our friends.

M & S Zaidman, Fredericksburg, VA

Thank you for your hard work. We really liked the way that you have been working with us. We now feel like educated buyers. Thanks!
