ZillowVERIFIEDMoving from out of state can be an extremely stressful process, but having the right realtor makes it far easier. Carissa listened to our needs and utilized her extensive knowledge of the area to narrow down choices of communities that were a good fit. She dedicated time to showing us those communities and guided us through the process of new construction. She aggressively negotiated on our behalf to get the best deal from the builder and advised throughout. She visited the property weekly and sent photos and videos throughout the construction process to keep us informed on progress. She is incredibly detail oriented and professional. She also went above and beyond to make closing day feel special for us. Carissa is hands down the best realtor we have worked with and we highly recommend her!

ZillowVERIFIED I was beyond happy with Carissa! Moving across country was no easy task but I always knew Carissa had all my Florida needs covered. From helping us find a house to providing recommendations for everything from closets to pool! Carissa is no nonsense while also understanding all your needs. We'd never use anyone else but Carissa again!

ZillowVERIFIED I worked with Carissa for a long time from another state before I actually made the move. She has been absolutely amazing and helpful in all areas.

ZillowVERIFIED Carissa is amazing to work with. She is very direct and honest, knows what works, gives great advice, and ultimately sells a lot of houses. If you are looking to buy or sell in the Lakewood Ranch area, Carissa will not let you down. I HIGHLY recommend her!

Review for Member: Carissa Pelczynski
ZillowVERIFIED I honestly could not have asked for a better broker than Carissa to help me relocate from the Boston area to Nokomis. From day one, she truly had my back. Long-distance moves are stressful, but Carissa made the entire process feel manageable and even exciting. She was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and patient, always taking the time to explain things and advocate for me every step of the way. It never felt transactional aEUR" it felt like I had someone on my team who genuinely cared about finding the right home for me and protecting my best interests. If youre thinking about relocating (especially from out of state), you want Carissa in your corner. I am beyond grateful and couldnt recommend her more highly

ZillowVERIFIED We couldn't have found our dream home without Carissa's expert knowledge of the area. She fought hard for us and held our hand through every step of the process. We are thrilled with our new home and cannot thank her enough for helping us move from NY to FL. We highly recommend her, especially if you are considering the Lakewood Ranch area.

ZillowVERIFIED Carissa helped our family relocate to the Lakewood Ranch area, guiding them through the buying and selling processes multiple times. We could not have done it without her constant support and knowledge. She is always going out of her way to make sure everything is order, even outside of regular hours. Cannot recommend her enough!

She was always available whenever we needed her and responded promptly to all of our questions. Her professionalism, knowledge, and dedication truly stood out, and we always felt like we were in great hands.

Review for Member: Carissa Pelczynski
ZillowVERIFIED We had the pleasure of working with Carissa over the course of several years during our relocation from Buffalo to Lakewood Ranch. During our initial introductions, Carissa was immediately full of helpful information about the area. She took us through all the communities she thought would best meet our family's needs. She provided a wealth of information about each and answered all of our many questions. When the time was right, she remembered all the things that were on our list of "must haves" and "Nice to haves" and worked diligently to find us the most amazing home. She is extremely responsive, super knowledgable about the LWR area and has an expansive network of connections. I would not hesitate to recommend Carissa to anyone buying a home in this area. She's amazing!

ZillowVERIFIED I can't say enough good things about Carissa. She helped me buy our first Florida home four years ago and when it came time to sell, there was no question I was calling her again. She sold our house in just four days, even in a down market, which was incredibly impressive. On top of that, she helped me find a great new home and worked hard to negotiate the best deal possible from the builder. Carissa is professional, responsive, and always has your best interest in mind. She made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. If you're looking for someone who will go above and beyond, Carissa is the one. Highly recommend.

ZillowVERIFIED Carissa is super knowledgeable about Lakewood Ranch and the surrounding areas. She was willing to show us any house that I asked to see. She knows about the schools and which neighborhoods are best for families. My suggestion would be to ask for her to show you the top selling neighborhoods. She knows the best spots and is honest. She works super hard and is very responsive. Definitely recommend!

ZillowVERIFIED Carissa went above and beyond in assisting us with an unexpected and sudden move to be close to family. She is extremely professional as well as caring and kind. We appreciate everything she did to make the transition a smooth one. She is on top of every detail and nothing goes unnoticed. She knows the area extremely well, knows the business inside and out, and has excellent communication skills. She is a delight to work with.

Review for Member: Carissa Pelczynski
ZillowVERIFIED Carissa was great to work with. We were moving from out of state and had minimal knowledge of the area. She made the buying process easy (especially with us building our home) with her knowledge of the area/communities. We were very impressed with her communication, negotiation skills, and above and beyond responsiveness. She provided weekly videos of our home as it was being built which was so helpful when we were out of town. Not only did she make time to be there for inspections and final walk throughs, she was very engaged and very detail oriented and committed to making sure our home was in excellent shape to close. She is extremely responsive and when we needed someone to go to bat for us...she really impressed us. We would highly recommend her.

ZillowVERIFIED You absolutely won't find a better realtor than Carissa Pelczynski. From the time I started my home search from out of state to the date I moved into my dream home and even beyond, Carissa exceeded every expectation. It amazed me that she was always so quick in responding to phone calls, emails and messages. She walked me through every step of the process and attended to every single little detail. It was such a pleasure working with a knowledgeable, professional, caring and thoughtful individual. It's no wonder she is the #1 realtor in sales for Lakewood Ranch!!

ZillowVERIFIED I decided to have Carissa list my home after having a horrible experience with another agent, and she did not disappoint! From start to finish she impressed me by setting clear expectations and following through every step of way. She sold my home within a reasonable time frame that she established, and at fair price despite price it being a buyers market. What you can expect from Carissa is honesty, accountability, open communication, and most importantly results. Thank you for professionalism, and hard work!

ZillowVERIFIED Carissa exceeded my expectations for my realtor agent. She delivered exactly what I was asking. She is sweet and lovely. She stayed focus and strong throughout our long closing of the house. I felt that she was more than a realtor but a real person that understood the ups and lows. At the end of the long journey. We celebrated together and she even gave us a big surprise banner something that I always dreamed of. And she didnt stop there. She went beyond with gifts and visits. She has clear communication even on her summer vacation. She stayed on top of it all. Highly recommended.

Review for Member: Carissa Pelczynski
ZillowVERIFIED Carissa was our realtor while we purchased out of state and were living abroad while building a new construction home from beginning to end. She was the absolute best realtor for type of situation. She was constantly giving us updates and sending videos without asking. When it came time to closing she was a huge advocate in making sure issues would be corrected. She got us into a long waitlist by having connections with the sales team. Overall we were really happy with her help throughout this process and wouldnt hesitate to use her again for our next move!

Review for Member: Carissa Pelczynski
ZillowVERIFIED Carissa Pelczynski is hands down the best real estate buyer's agent I've ever worked with. Unlike many agents who handle buyers just to secure future listings, Carissa's entire business is dedicated to helping buyers find and close on their perfect homes. She quickly assesses your needs and matches you with properties that fit your criteria seamlessly. For the first purchase, I was helping my dad relocate to Lakewood Ranch from out of state and knew little about the area. Carissa was incredibly accessible, promptly answering questions and making time to show us properties. We quickly identified our right neighborhood of Country Club, and Carissa even helped us secure our perfect off-market property. Our family loves my Dad's new home! A couple of years later, it was my turn to move to the area permanently. I was looking for newer builds with good future rental potential. Although I had some ideas, Carissa's deep market knowledge led her to suggest a new community in the Waterside district. It was the perfect fit for my current needs and future plans. I successfully closed on my new Emerald Landing townhome, the third property to close in this new community. Carissa's expertise, professionalism, and dedication are truly commendable. She navigated every unexpected hurdle with ease, ensuring smooth transactions. I highly recommend Carissa Pelczynski to anyone in search of a top-notch buyer's agent.

Carissa possesses an exceptional depth of knowledge about the market and an extensive network of connections that proved invaluable throughout our real estate transactions. Carissa was not only incredibly helpful but also exceptionally patient with us, taking the time to answer every single question we had, no matter how big or small. Carissa never wasted a moment of our time, always ensuring that every interaction and every property visit was productive and informative. She understood exactly what we were looking for in a home as well as investment properties and tailored her recommendations accordingly. Working with her was an absolute pleasure, and we are grateful for her outstanding service.

ZillowVERIFIED My husband and I recently had the pleasure of working with Carissa as our real estate agent. I cannot express enough how impressed we were with her professionalism and dedication throughout the entire process. Carissa truly went above and beyond to ensure that our experience was nothing short of outstanding. From the moment we reached out to Carissa, she was incredibly helpful. She took the time to understand our specific needs and preferences, making us feel like valued clients from the start. Carissas extensive knowledge of the local market and her keen eye for detail helped us find the perfect property that matched all of our requirements. One aspect that really stood out about Carissa was her remarkable responsiveness. She promptly answered all of our questions and concerns, whether it was texting, phone calls, email, or in person. We felt well informed and supported throughout the entire process, even while being so far away in New York. We are thankful for Carissas clear and timely communication. She truly understood the importance of keeping us in the loop and ensuring that we felt comfortable every step of the way. She would frequently send videos and pictures of our house as it was in the process of being built! Not only was Carissa professional and knowledgeable, but she also had a warm and friendly demeanor. Carissas personable nature and genuine enthusiasm for her work made the entire experience enjoyable and fun. We felt like we were working with a trusted friend rather than just a real estate agent. We highly recommend Carissa to anyone who needs a real estate agent!

ZillowVERIFIED I cannot adequately articulate how grateful we are to Carissa. She is a phenomenal realtor, but doesnt stop there. We knew that Carissa had our familys best interest at heart from the very start to the very end of the process. She is incredibly knowledgeable, great at consistent communication, a natural negotiator, and well versed in every aspect of real estate and new contruction. We were so impressed with her during our new home build, that we referred my parents to her in search for a condo in another area- but still Carissa demonstrated incredible market expertise. My parents were equally impressed by Carissa and also love their FL home. It is without any reservation that I highly recommend Carissa.

ZillowVERIFIED Top notch service! Carissa eased our mind with her guidance as we moved to a different state. She made the buying process, extremely smooth, and exciting to say the least. Carissa was an absolute pleasure to work with! If you are looking for professionalism, expertise, excellent interpersonal skills, and a seamless process, get in touch with her! Not only did she make it easy for my husband, and I, but she did so for our three children and two who are teenagers, that were so sad to leave their hometown and friends. We were so impressed with her skills that we hired her to help us with our 1031s and investment properties. She knows the market oh so well, so her guidance was extremely helpful with educating us even further. Thank you, Carissa for exceeding our expectations.

ZillowVERIFIED From the very beginning when I was in the process of looking for a community to live in Carissa was always available to talk to. When I decided on a place she was always available whether by phone, message or text when I needed her. Being I was in NY and not able to see the progress of my house she was my eyes. Every week from the moment the slab went down till the day I closed she was there taking pictures and videos so I could be part of the process. I really don't know if I would have enjoyed this as much as I did and looked forward to her video of the house every week. Then the day of closing she filled the outside and inside with so many surprises. She started to make this house into a home. Thank you. I definitely recommend Carissa Pelczynski to be your Real Estate person.

ZillowVERIFIED Carissa was with us throughout the process from purchasing an unbuilt home, through design options and up to and through move-in. Caeissa was our eyes and ears sense we were remote buyers and couldn't attend all the functions in the construction of the house. We heavily relied on her experience and expertise and followed her suggestions and everything she recommended turned out to be the perfect direction in which to proceed.

ZillowVERIFIED Carissa did an amazing job working aggressively on our behalf from day one. In a very busy real estate market in 2021, Carissa was always accessible and tirelessly helped guide us through the process. From attending Open Houses when we couldnt, making extra effort to send texts, pictures and updates we always knew that she was working for us. Her attention to details, excellent communication skills, knowledge of the market and willingness to go the extra mile was exactly what we needed moving from the Midwest. We got the house and lot we wanted, which was all made possible by Carissas hard work. We would recommend Carissa to anyone looking for a professional, friendly, hardworking and successful real estate agent!

ZillowVERIFIED Carissa did an amazing job helping us make our home purchase while living out of state. She did weekly checks on our home that was under construction and kept us updated with pictures and progress of our home. She was such an amazing help to us during our final walk through pointing out things that we didn't even know to look for to make sure we had the builder fix before our closing on our home. She was always very friendly and responsive to all communication throughout the whole process. She even surprised us with a beautiful welcome gift upon moving into our home. I can wholeheartedly recommend Carissa to anyone needing a realtor in the Lakewood Ranch/Sarasota area because she is just so knowledgeable and goes above and beyond to help her customers have the best experience buying their new home.

ZillowVERIFIED Carissa was excellent to work with! She was knowledgeable with the various builders and the Sarasota area. Given that we were moving out of state, she has kept an eye on our home w/weekly video updates! Also, given we had a new build, she had eyes like a hawk with any issues during inspection. If there were any escalations needed, she knew all the right contacts to speak with to get a quick resolution.
