Whether you're buying your first Florida retreat, selling for top dollar, or investing in the Gulf Coast — I bring local expertise, honest advice, and a track record that speaks for itself.
I'm Nick Schlabach, and I've built my career on one simple belief: buying or selling a home should feel exciting, not overwhelming. Sarasota is more than a market to me — it's where people come to live the life they've earned.
From beachfront condos on Lido Key to family homes in Palmer Ranch, I know these neighborhoods inside and out. I'll help you understand what matters — school districts, flood zones, resale value, lifestyle fit — so you can make decisions with confidence.
Every client's situation is different. Here's how I can help you move forward.
From first-time buyers to seasoned investors, I'll help you find the right property at the right price — and navigate offers, inspections, and closing with confidence.
Pricing strategy, staging advice, professional marketing, and skilled negotiation — I'll maximize your home's appeal and get you the best possible outcome.
Sarasota's rental market is strong. I'll help you analyze cash flow, identify emerging neighborhoods, and build a portfolio that works as hard as you do.
Moving to Sarasota? I'll help you understand the area — from beach communities to inland neighborhoods — so you can settle in quickly and comfortably.
Sarasota offers something for every lifestyle. Here are some of the areas I know best.
Prestigious barrier island living with beach access, fine dining, and stunning bay views.
Vibrant walkable district near Rosemary District, perfect for those who want city energy.
Family-friendly community with excellent schools, pools, and a active lifestyle center.
Waterfront homes and condos with direct Gulf access — ideal for boating enthusiasts.
Real feedback from real people I've had the pleasure of working with.
Nick made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and straightforward. He listened to what we needed and found us a home we absolutely love.
We sold our home in record time and above asking. Nick's pricing strategy and marketing plan were spot-on. We couldn't be happier with the result.
As first-time buyers, we had a million questions. Nick answered every one patiently and never made us feel rushed. He truly had our best interests at heart.
