Recently I was very fortunate to work with Ken and Margo on three different properties. They did a wonderful job communicating with me during all phases of the transactions. I would recommend them to anyone looking for quality guidance and attention to detail. Their service was truly outstanding!
Ken did such a great job with the purchase of our first home on AMI, that we immediately called him to help us with the purchase of a second home! As always, Ken proved himself invaluable in the process from navigating deal negotiations to providing insight on local zoning laws, andmuch more. He always goes the extra mile and we appreciate all of his efforts. – Andy & Siubhan
We met Ken on our recent home tours for retirement property in Sarasota County. We found Ken to be very knowledgeable and informative on property issues ranging from construction to taxes, local codes to area history, and amenities to traffic patterns. His insights were useful as we prioritized selections and we found him to be a valuable resource. Ken is very pleasant to work with and was accommodating and flexible throughout our stay. We enjoyed working with Ken and appreciate all of his patience and assistance.
Dear Ken & Margo,I know it is hard to believe it has been a year since I moved into my new house. I can honestly say I look back on the whole process with great fondness. I have come to realize that you not only have to know your profession but also be an advisor, a psychologist, a life coach, whatever it takes! As a widow, selling a house you have been in for 22 years and purchasing a new house is fraught with anxiety. But you and Margo brought me through with flying colors! Your knowledge and professionalism are excellent, I can't thank you both enough for everything.
“We worked with Ken and Margo over the course of almost a year to find our perfect home. Given the difficult market conditions and our picky taste we must have tested the limits of their patience, but you would never know it. They were a pleasure to work with and were quick to accommodate our requests for remote viewings and fast turn around times. We ended up with our dream house and even after the sale Ken and Margo graciously helped us find service providers to accommodate our needs for insurance, house repair and other items. If you’re in the market for a home, we highly recommend Ken and Margo.”
My husband and I are from the Northeast and were looking for a rental/vacation property to invest in. We came across Ken, Kristi and Michael Saunders Realty while in Anna Maria Island, FL. From the onset, Ken and Kristi welcomed and educated us on Anna Maria's landscape and history. Knowing we are out of towners, throughout the entire process, Ken and Kristi made sure they were there to resolve any road blocks we encountered. Examples included: During the properties selection process, they took turns taking pictures to send to us; making multiple trips to the property to check whether or not the items on the punch list were completed prior to closing. Additionally, they kept us well informed throughout the process. When working with Ken and Kristin, you will find a top notch team who are very patient, hospitable, empathetic, and knowledgeable. They will go above and beyond to satisfy a client. It was a pleasure working with them! We will be sure to use them again when we are ready to purchase our next property within the vicinity.
Shout out to Ken and Margo for the great job they did in selling our home in Anna Maria. We interviewed several realtors and they were the only ones who sensed the change in the local market that allowed us to get a great price for our house. What a great team! Margo's keen sense for marketing and staging generated excellent traffic. Ken's passion, focus and communication skills were instrumental in the closing of a complex sale. They love what they are doing and we loved having them as our realtors.Jeff and Wendy
We began looking for a vacation home seven months ago on Anna Maria Island. We found what we though would be the perfect home for us. Ken Kavanaugh worked diligently with us until we got our dream home. Since we were out-of-state, he made sure to maximize our time while here. Ken Kavanaugh was extremely professional, courteous and took the time to listen to our concerns. His attention to detail ensured we got to the settlement table with everything needed to execute the purchase. Ken's knowledge of Anna Maria and his genuine interest in our needs made buying our property a less stressful experience. We highly recommend Ken Kavanaugh to anyone thinking of buying or selling a home. In our case, as an out-of-state buyer of a home, there were many rough spots on the road to closing and in every instance Ken was a great help. He is professional, personable, responsive and patient with his clients. In fact, we have recommended Ken Kavanaugh to our family and friends. He made our dreams come true.

I can’t say enough positive things about Ken and Margo and Michael Saunders & Co! Ken is very straight forward with an open and honest style of communication. We initially met Ken at an open house where he was representing the seller. We felt comfortable with him representing us as buyers as well and always felt he held both buyer and seller’s interests in mind. The whole process was very smooth and efficient due to Ken’s experience and efforts. His knowledge of local zoning laws, environmental laws, building codes, etc was outstanding and helpful. He and Margo often surprised us with their level of service and Ken was always there for us to answer any of our questions and always extended a helping hand (even after closing). They truly went above and beyond and provided outstanding service!! We would highly recommend Ken & Margo and Michael Saunders & Co. Andy and Siubhan Clark
