Fall 2013
F
all in Southwest Florida feels like the calm before the
storm. Cool breezes roll in to temper the heat of
summer as locals prepare for the tide of visitors to arrive.
The official start of season is rather arbitrary, however the
first signs of the coming rush begin to appear mid-November.
For those looking to purchase a new coastal oasis this season, you have an impressive
selection of fine homes to choose from within these pages. From castles in the sky
to private islands, Michael Saunders & Company has an extraordinarily broad range of
exquisite homes to share with you.
At Florida Homes Magazine, we feature luxury real estate and travel destinations along
the entire Gulf Coast. Understandably, we see our share of breathtaking properties,
and yet, creating SaundersBEST gives me a special appreciation for the artistry here
on the Cultural Coast. The refinement and originality displayed in many of these
fine homes is striking. I also cherish the opportunity to work with the outstanding
professionals at Michael Saunders & Company. Their tenacity and attention to detail
are seen throughout the organization, from the Realtors to the management team.
It is no happenstance that the Michael Saunders
name has been synonymous with luxury
real estate for nearly 40 years. Through the
inevitable ebb and flow of the market over
the decades, their commitment to exceptional
service has remained constant. Few companies
can survive the test of time, congratulations to
the team at Michael Saunders & Company for
not only surviving, but thriving.
Best wishes to all,
