David was an absolute pleasure to work with! We started the process of buying a home during the height of the pandemic, and being from out of state and without the ability to fly back and forth constantly meant we needed an agent who will be our eyes and ears on the ground. From the moment we talked to David we knew he would be perfect and we hit it off right away. We wanted to build a new home so David helped us choose between two builders and pick out a perfect lot, and he was even able to negotiate a major discount from the builder for us, which enabled us to invest in a lot more upgrades for our home. Once construction began, David was an absolute lifesaver. Not being able to check in on the construction of a new house could be incredibly stressful, but David made us feel like we were there. He kept driving to the property throughout the process, taking pictures and videos for us and talking to the construction crew. It really helped put us at ease. He didn’t have to do that, but he did because he truly cares about his clients and he takes being your agent very seriously. When construction was wrapping up, he brought an inspection crew that checked every inch of the house and found issues (like cracked roof tiles) that we would never been able to. Even after we moved in, David kept checking on us to make sure we’re happy with the home and our new life in Florida. If you’re looking for an agent in the Sarasota area, don’t think twice and call David. He is guaranteed to make the often-stressful process of buying a home a great experience.
I contacted Dave after finding him online and could not have been happier with our decision to work with him. He is extremely knowledgeable of local conditions on the ground, and has all the right contacts and connections to make positive things happen for both buyers and sellers. Dave is highly responsive and goes out of his way to ensure you get as much information as needed to make timely and informed decisions, which is extremely important under current market conditions that require quick decisions to take advantage of certain opportunities. In this regard, Dave's local knowledge and expertise is invaluable. I would highly recommend Dave to anyone in need of realty services in the Tampa Bay area. He will provide the services you need, work tirelessly on your behalf, and I am sure you'll be pleased with the end results.
We found David online one day after doing some research about relocating to Tampa. At the time, we weren't sure which area to land, only an idea of where we might like to be. David took the time to show us all the possibilities, suggested some and even went out of his way to areas that were not familiar to him. All I can say is this man has helped us so much; he went above and beyond to assure our transition was as smooth as possible. He was there every step of the way, always checking in , having an open line of communication, and assuring all questions were answered. Call him for any real estate needs!
The Burgess Team did a fantastic job in marketing and selling our luxury home! Their attention to detail and impeccable customer service helped garner us the highest priced home sold in our gated neighborhood. And it should be noted that we sold for top dollar within two weeks of listing – all during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Burgess Team sat down with us to hear our needs and desires and they put a plan in place that made the entire sales transaction seamless, expeditious and stress free. They also used the latest technology including drone footage that helped capture the beauty of our home and location which assisted in a quick sale. It is no wonder that the Burgess Team is grabbing awards and honors left and right and becoming the hit of the Tampa Bay real estate scene!
My fiancé and I decided to move to Sarasota from Maryland and as we were researching real estate, we
came across David online. We were drawn to his down-to-earthness, enthusiasm and
knowledge base of the area we were interested in.
David and his wife, Carolyn are a team. Our initial impression over the phone was very positive with the
both of them. They were a delight to talk to and we appreciated their detailed questions about what we
were looking for. Meeting David in person only confirmed we had found the right realtor. David is
personable, friendly and his relaxed yet professional demeanor had a welcomed calming effect, making
it easy to trust him. David was easily accessible, responded in a timely manner and went above and
beyond to make the purchase of our house a smooth, pleasant experience. We highly recommend David
and Carolyn!
David and Carolyn were great to work with. We were moving to Florida from Louisiana and couldn’t have asked for a better team. They took videos of all the houses we were interested in and even gave advice on houses compared to the schools that the kids would go to. We were in Louisiana when the closing and final walkthrough were being done, and they were there for us making sure everything was to our standards. They even went so far as to finding someone local to maintain our grass for us until our move in date. They made the transition as smooth as we could have asked for. If you are looking for a realtor team, I highly suggest The Burgess Team!!!
We recently worked with David to find a home in the Tampa area. We were moving from southern California with very little knowledge about Tampa or suburbs so it was imperative that we found a realtor who was familiar and knew the 'ins and outs'. David was just that! He was always responsive, made himself available, and made sure everything was on the up-and-up during the home buying process. We highly recommend David for his expertise, professionalism, and follow-through. He is an excellent advocate for his buyer!
David and Carolyn are amazing! They do everything within their power to get you top dollar for your home, in a reasonable amount of time. They also make you feel like family throughout the entire process. They’re completely transparent with their contracts, and talk you through them to make sure you fully understand everything. If we hadn’t moved to VA, we would have had them help us find our new home.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Carolyn and David are AMAZING to work with. Not only are they one of the sweetest couples but they also make a wonderful team in real estate! My husband and I had a house that was sitting for months before they came along. The house was vacant and we were 16 hours away looking for long distance help. SO thankful we found these two! They jumped right in with providing exceptional guidance as well as adding additional touches to the house for open houses and showings. Not to mention the extra time and effort they put in to help us when we realized there was a possible leak! Every sellers worst nightmare. Luckily it was only a running toilet but the point is that they both took the time to check the house top to bottom, sent videos, and met with a plumber. They go the extra mile and are simply amazing and enjoyable to work with. They also get the job done quickly! We closed less than 45 days into our contract with them! We are so very grateful!
Thank you Carolyn and David!
