What do Clients Say?
Our experience with Lori Bollinger was absolutely fantastic. She is a reliable, accessible realtor who paid attention to every detail of our house sale. Lori was always available to talk through any concerns or decisions to be made and she made us feel very valued as her client. Her professionalism was evident in all aspects of the sale and we would highly recommend her as a realtor.

Lori is the epitome of the real estate professional you want to work with. Being from another state, we relied heavily upon her to be our advocate here in Florida. She is a remarkable realtor as well as a personal friend. You can’t do better than Lori Bollinger.

It is my absolute pleasure to recommend Lori Bollinger as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching for the ideal home for their unique situation. This is our second home buying experience with Lori. She managed to sell our last house, which she helped buy 4 years ago, for an excellent price, in 2 days. Lori knows Lakewood Ranch and surrounding areas like the back of her hand. This time around we decided on a new construction home in the Lake Club. New construction is challenging because the builder is in complete control of the state of the house right up until closing. And where communication was lacking, Lori was diligent on relaying questions and getting answers. She also has a sharp eye during walkthroughs looking for pitfalls and flaws that the builder may have missed. Lori is a highly attentive agent, almost as if we were her only customers, although we know that was not the case. She returned all phone calls and emails the same day. We never felt neglected or unimportant. She is also highly personable with an engaging personality. We are pleased to recommend Lori and her team at Michael Saunders to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. She is hands down the best in the business in my opinion and if we ever need to move again, she will definitely be our first choice!

Lori Bollinger is the absolute best! We have used her for several transactions and couldn’t be happier. She’s knowledgeable, a problem solver and keeps cool in all situations. Lori has made the sometimes-stressful process of purchasing a home as easy as possible and we recommend her highly.

Moved from SC to FL the end of October 2021. Knew of Michael Saunders & Company from many years ago and chose them to help us look for our next home in Lakewood Ranch. I worked as a Realtor for a time in upstate NY before retiring. We linked up with Lori and we found her to be friendly (and fun to be with!) professional, highly capable, experienced, she listened carefully and researched constantly for us, and worked tirelessly to find us a home in a very stressful, competitive housing market. She knows Lakewood Ranch and surrounding developments well. She was always helpful in pointing out things on property visits with us, helping us to weigh various aspects. Her communications were prompt, and her actions commendably proactive---Lori reviewed a particular property in MLS minutes after it went public, and she immediately booked a visit with us before we knew of this listing and before hearing from us if we wanted to see it. Her instincts and experience proved right, as we liked the neighborhood, street, and house, and we were fortunate to wind up purchasing that property. It's a jungle out there for buyers at present, and Lori managed to find us a home and secure a contract for us in a little over 2 weeks. We are happy to recommend her to others without reservation!
