ZillowVERIFIEDTonna is very kind and keeps in touch with every step of the way. She is always available at any time and very helpful throughout the home buying process. She is very knowledgeable. I would recommend her to help you whether you are selling or purchasing or both.

ZillowVERIFIEDTonna is an above and beyond agent. I told her where I was looking to buy and what price range, but she dived deeper into what was important to me in a home and community. She found a home that checked boxes I didn't even think about at the time and wasn't an area I was even aware of, that was so perfect I made an offer right away. The more I learn about my new community the more perfect it is, and I am everyday delighted by my new home. She was present every step of the way, meeting my inspector, property manager, and walking me through each step to make sure I got the home at the best deal possible. She found a better mortgage than the one I had previously pre-qualified for, and has continued to be in touch to make sure everything went smoothly. She is at the top of her field, a premier agent for sure (I say this as a former agent myself), and I'm lucky to have found her!

ZillowVERIFIEDNever have I met such an amazing real estate agent. About six months ago, I started casually looking at homes on Zillow. When I first met Tonna, I knew right away she was something special. She was honest, upfront, and genuinely cared about what I was looking for. Even though I wasnt quite ready to buy, she still took the time to learn my wants and needs and kept me updated anytime she saw a home she thought Id love. And now, here I am officially the owner of a beautiful home. Tonna went above and beyond, especially when dealing with some challenging sellers. She stayed positive through everything and always reminded me that she would take care of it. And she did. What means the most is that even after closing, she continues to help finding us a landscaper, a handyman, even a pool caretaker. Tonna isnt just an agent; shes become a friend. Someone I trust. Someone who truly has my back.

ZillowVERIFIEDWorking with Tonna has been absolutely incredible! Her expertise and knowledge are truly unmatched. Shes been such a patient, confident, and steady guide throughout our entire buying and selling process. Tonna went above and beyond every step of the way to make sure we were taken care of and moving in the right direction. There were so many details I never would have thought of, but she handled everything seamlesslyaEUR"ensuring our contracts were strong, fair, and worked in our favor on both sides of the transaction. She explained every step, decoded confusing paperwork, and made what could have been a stressful process feel completely manageable. We are so blessed to have had Tonna by our side. Her professionalism, dedication, and genuine care made all the difference. I cant recommend her enough!

ZillowVERIFIEDTonna helped me sell my townhome earlier this year as I was moving out of state. She made the process easy and was a joy to work with. She helped me sell it quickly and I would highly recommend working with her again!

ZillowVERIFIEDI started working with Tonna a few years ago she dedicated her time with us before we even had a preapproval letter which made us say this is our realtor that were going to use. She sold two of my houses so far in God has moved into our dream house in Myakka City she is hands-down the best Realtor you can get.

ZillowVERIFIEDAs a first-time homebuyer, I couldnt have asked for a better realtor than Tonna. She explained the process clearly, answered our questions right away, and made sure we understood each step. She was honest and never pushy, which gave us confidence in our decisions. Thanks to her guidance, we found a home we love at the right price. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone starting their buying journey.

ZillowVERIFIEDTonna was excellent dealing with the sellers agent. Super knowledgeable about the contract and the best way forward when there is a road block. Wouldn't want anyone else representing my interests. Knows her client and doesn't waste time getting them what they asked for. Can't wait till we find the next one to invest in.

Review for Member: Tonna Gruber
ZillowVERIFIEDShe does a disservice to the buyers she represents. We recently sold our home in Riverview, FL to her clients and it was a horrible experience! Tonna attempted commission modification outside of a signed purchase agreement, paired with a threat to interfere with the transaction if we didnt comply. She attempted to extort us by threatening to aEURoedrag out the dealaEUR? if we didnt give her an additional 0.5% commission. According to state laws, that is a breach of fiduciary duty/bad faith. Real estate commissions must be agreed upon in writing before the transaction. Demanding more after the contract is signed can violate state real estate, licensing laws and professional conduct rules. In addition to that, she threatened to sue us if we didnt allow her non-veteran client to assume our veteran loan. This realtor is the WORST realtor we have ever dealt with and I would highly recommend avoiding her at all costs.

ZillowVERIFIEDTonna did an amazing job assisting us with the purchase of our FIRST HOME! Her expertise in the market's geographic area was instrumental in determining the right home for us while considering the future resale value for the area. She was friendly, responsive, set up regular check-ins and communications which was key since we lived states away. I cannot recommend Tonna and her services enough!

ZillowVERIFIEDTonna helped me purchase my home in Cape Coral. She made me feel like I was her only client, with top notch communication. She was there for me every step of the way and went to bat for me when I felt cornered. Id recommend Tonna to anyone looking to purchase or sell their home.

ZillowVERIFIEDShe should be voted the national realtor of the year. I wouldn't own anything in Sarasota if it wasn't for her hard work. The hurricane that came near Sarasota last year washed out ( pun intended) deal I almost closed on but Tonna picked up all the pieces and got another sale completed.

ZillowVERIFIEDTonna was our realtor in finding a condo in Sarasota. She was very helpful through the entire process. She not only answered all of our questions during the closing process but also provided us with names of several service providers in the area. Tonna demonstrated excellent customer service skills.

Review for Member: Tonna Gruber
ZillowVERIFIEDWe were blown away by Tonna's super attitude and expertise. We moved to our new townhouse in Sarasota from an apartment in Clearwater, FL. We were disappointed with other realtors because they were inefficient, gave us wrong information and had no follow-up. Tonna knew the right questions to ask the builders/developers /mortgagers - we got answers to questions that we never even considered. We're new to the area and avoided A LOT of hassles by Tonna's insight into the procedures and peculiarities of local utilities, cable, you name it. We appreciate her pleasant personality and work ethic. You can tell she really cares. Thanks, Tonna!

ZillowVERIFIEDThe bottom line: Just 8 weeks after meeting Tonna Gruber, we now live in the home of our dreams in Sarasotas Ravenwood, and have sold our house in LakeRidge Falls for the highest price of any unit ever sold there. So much is involved in making the purchase or sale of a home go off without a hitch, and, for us, Tonna flawlessly handled both at the same time. She is an excellent communicator who really cares about her clients interests. She is an expert in contract language and negotiating the fine points of the deal. She knows her way around construction details and materials. She knows Sarasota. If you need a handyperson, a contractor, an attorney, or any kind of home-service help, shes got a guy. If you are easily spooked or uncertain when it comes to buying or selling what is probably your biggest financial asset, she has the data and reports to help you see more clearly. If you are a worrier, Tonna will change you. We have bought 6 Florida properties (and sold 5) in the last 18 years, and worked for a real estate team for a decade. We can say, without hesitation, that Tonna is unlike any other realtor we know. Her energy, her knowledge base, her professionalism, her integrity are unparalleled. You will never feel alone in your quest when you work with Tonna, and you WILL have success in buying or selling aEUR" or both! aEUR" your real estate.

ZillowVERIFIEDHands down, Tonna Gruber is the best! We found her on MLS, and she became our exceptional and professional Real Estate Agent last September. Tonna sold us on Sarasota, and helped us find our retirement dream home quickly! Without hesitation, Tonna drove us around and consistently answered all of our questions. She was understanding, comfortable to be with, detailed, and very focused on our find. Were new to Florida, so to have Tonnas expertise and local knowledge, we were put at ease. My husband and I spent two days together with her, and instantly built a lasting trust & friendship. Tonna knows the builders, has the contacts, and totally understands the business aspects of selling & purchasing a home. Crazy, but we found our aEURoeWowaEUR? home long distance. The Sarasota home had just been put on the market, and Tonna (alone) moved quickly and videotaped every room for us. SOLD! She professionally put the purchase agreement together (after one day on the market), and here we sit in our beautiful home. Tonna continues to reach out to us with her super bubbly personality. Tonna is an outstanding realtor, and we highly recommend her to anyone! Sincerely, Christy Spooner

ZillowVERIFIEDReview for Tonna Gruber: Purchasing a property and selling a property at the same time can be a daunting endeavor. Even for those of us who have done in before. My husband and I were extremely fortunate when we met our realtor Tonna Gruber, of Coldwell Banker Realty in Sarasota. We began a very positive and successful business relationship with Tonna. She stepped up to the plate every single time we needed her, which was often. Tonnas expertise in the financial understanding of real estate as well as the ability to educate us was beyond impressive. She knew every aspect of the business and she was able to interpret contract language and execute an agreeable contract with ease. Tonna made selling our condo and purchasing a larger home quite seamless. We were especially impressed with Tonnas generosity with her time. She scheduled numerous open house dates and performed with such professionalism with every prospective buyer. She was able to guide us through listing our Florida property and had experience with the marketing, the photographs, the brochures and she designed a unique and a very detailed listing. Tonna was able to get us a purchase price on our condo which was higher that any other condo in the entire community. Communication is important to us and Tonna was available and willing to talk with us numerous times per day. She got us the answers we needed 100% of the time. The time spent with Tonna was honestly enjoyable because of her cheerfulness and her can-do attitude. She showed us many properties which were tailored to our interests and budget. We were thrilled when she negotiated a successful contract which allowed us to buy our perfect retirement home. Tonna Gruber is an amazing agent, and we would recommend her without hesitation. The quality of her performance was impeccable.

ZillowVERIFIEDTonna is a wonderful realtor. She did an outstanding job helping us find our first home when we relocated to Florida from NJ. After 3 years, we decided to purchase a larger home. She worked diligently to help us with the sale of our existing home and found our dream home. Tonna made the buying and selling process very easy from start to finish. As a long time Sarasota resident, Tonna knows the area extremely well and was able to provide us with all the information we needed. I highly recommend Tonna to anyone looking to buy or sell
