I have enjoyed working with Gregory. He is very attentive and answers emails in a timely manner. Not being from the area, he is very honest about listings and very knowledgeable with surrounding communities. Gregory listens to our wants and provides suitable houses that meet our criteria. I would highly recommend him!
Let me start this by saying Gregory is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of buying and selling a home. We had listed our condo with 2 other agents during an 18 month odyssey to sell it and relocate into a larger home. After those failed attempts, we met Gregory and our skepticism of realtors was quickly pushed aside. We quickly received an offer that exceeded our previous asking prices! Following that success we asked Gregory to assist us in finding our new home. One of Gregory’s greatest strengths was keeping us informed during each phase of buying and selling. He always knew what we should expect next and had us prepared so things would go smoothly. Every transaction faces obstacles and ours were no different, but through each potential setback Gregory kept us informed and clearly explained each side of the issue so we could make informed decisions. We started this process looking for a “business partner” to sell our condo, and after completing that sale and then purchasing a new home with Gregory’s assistance, we were left with a friend. I would highly recommend him to be your realtor.
Gregory was referred to us through a glowing recommendation from a client who he had helped with multiple assignments. That was one of the best pieces of advice we have ever received. From the moment we met Gregory we felt comfortable and confident. We are from Atlanta and fell in love with Bradenton and wanted to buy a historic bungalow near Downtown. His depth of experience and knowledge helped us through all of the quirks involved with buying an almost 100-year old home and with buying property in Florida. His integrity is impeccable and his guidance made the process smooth and painless. On top of all of that he is an extremely pleasant person. We would definitely use him again and are happy to spread the word!
Gregory worked with us for over two years until we found the right snowbird home for our family. He kept in touch with us over that time and was always available and ready to answer our questions and provide us with excellent guidance. Gregory is also a real person, which is hard to find in any sales industry. He was easy to talk to and listened for our needs. We are so happy with our new villa and happy he turned us onto the little gem of Bradenton. We would definitely use him again to sell our home when the time comes or find other investment property in the area, and you should hire him too. You will not be disappointed!
Gregory is extremely responsive, professional and pleasant to work with.
Greg is outstanding. He always follows up with his clients request for assistance. He is a pleasure to deal with. If you are interested In purchasing a home I recommend you consider using Greg as your agent. By all means he is a five star agent. Sincerely, Dominick J Kellogg
I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Greg Zies is very professional, honest & caring realtor. We were selling my dad's house after his passing & Greg made everything so easy. He was constantly in touch me along the way keeping me posted on all activity & feedback on each showing. I will definitely recommend Greg to anyone I know buying or selling a home.
We had the distinct pleasure to enlist the talents of Gregory Zies with the long-distance sale of our condo. We initially were apprehensive about the many challenges we could be facing on a transaction of this size while being over 1,000 miles away. We soon found our concerns were unfounded as Gregory displayed his unprecedented knowledge, diligence and most of all, impeccable character and integrity throughout the process. He was always available for any question and concern we brought and displayed a patient and calming approach in all of our questions and requests. He enlisted a great deal of resources to facilitate the certain future sale of our property leaving no stone unturned no matter how great or small. We knew he had handled transactions of many multiples of our listing price but not once did we feel that our listing was not front and center within his listed portfolio and he very much made us feel that our property was a top priority. And sure enough, within a very short period we had a solid offer, that resulted in a expedient closing despite being in the busiest time of the Christmas holiday season. Mr. Gregory Zies is our go-to when we purchase our next property in the Bradenton area as we feel we were blessed to find such a caring and consummate professional that is re-setting the bar each and every day within his industry.
Gregory is an excellent realtor to work with. We had a difficult shared client but he made the process of working through the issues professional. We are looking forward to partnering with him again in the future.
I am writing to let you know how highly my mom and I think of Greg Zies not only as a broker but as a person and how well he represents Michael Saunders & Company. We used him not only when we bought the house in 2016 but also when it was time to sell this past December and he was also helpful in times of need in between as this was a second home and we were not there a lot of the time. He was extremely patient with my mom when she was looking for a home to buy in the area and was also great throughout the whole sale process. I would not have thought of using anyone else nor would I hesitate to recommend him to anyone either buying or selling in the area. My home was sold very quickly and to the first person who saw it and I want to thank you guys again for making the whole process easy as it was all done on my end from New York and I never had to come down as Greg took care of everything. Hopefully, when I retire I will be back in contact with you guys again for a home in the Anna Maria area as I love it there.
As someone who was buying from 1400 miles away I needed to have a realtor I could trust and most importantly was knowledgeable. I was very lucky to find Greg because he was everything you need in a realtor. He was able to show us homes over face time and point out all the things both good and bad that you can never see unless your in person. This allowed us to make a confidant remote decision. Thanks Greg!
Gregory set up a search and showed us several diverse properties over the course of several months. He asked thoughtful questions and provided great insights into the various properties we looked at. We found our dream house and Gregory did a great job negotiating a great price for us. Thanks!
I have bought/sold over a dozen homes and have never had a better Realtor team than Greg and Kathy. Thank you both. cls
You can’t ask for more than a great offer within the first 12 hours of listing your property. Gregory and his team are professional and exceptionally talented.
Greg was a pleasure to work with on the sale of my home in NW Bradenton and subsequent purchase of my home in Sarasota. He approaches challenges with a positive mindset and is very professional. He went above and beyond to help during the stress of showing and selling my home. One example - he was kind enough to offer a playdate for my dog with his dog on my moving day.
5 stars! Greg was very friendly and helpful. He was very personable and I feel he will be enjoyable to work with. Look forward to meeting him soon. Marilyn Balsam
Mr. Zies has been very professional, polite, and knowledgeable regarding questions and concerns of purchasing property in the Bradenton vicinity. Thanks, Emory E. Swinney
He is very professional.
We used Gregory to purchase our home when we relocated permanently to Bradenton from Michigan. We have since referred others to Gregory including our daughter (she has used him to purchase twice and sell once), other family members and friends, who have been extremely pleased with his advice, work ethic and genuine care for his clients. One of Gregory's greatest attributes is his ability to listen and focus on what his buyer really wants. He works very hard to find a home that will make each individual happy and then goes above and beyond to ensure that the home is a wise and sound purchase and advises accordingly. In addition, he has acquired many reliable and trustworthy professional contactors for home repairs, pest control, etc. that he readily shares with his clients. Gregory is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive and helpful as well as always willing to go above and beyond to help his clients. We would highly recommend Gregory Zies to anyone needing a realtor in the Bradenton area. He is a gem!
Realtor to Realtor it was a pleasure.
Gregory was professional, extremely knowledgeable and flexible around my work schedule when showing me different homes. Ultimately I purchased a new construction and I was living in my new home in about 100 days. Gregory made the whole process very stress-free
Does a good job for his clients. Goes the extra mile in customer service.
Greg has excelled at the at thing you want from a realtor: communication with the buyer, knowledge of the area and inventory and an understanding of the details of process and paperwork. He has a wonderful manner and personality, a high level of professionalism and knows the nuances of home purchasing. I always felt confident and informed while working with him.
Good man-professiomal-trustworthy.Fred
Gregory was very knowledgeable and helpful in selling our house. He also did extra things for us such as when repair men were coming and we could not be there he met them. Also when a storm was coming, he took deck furniture in.
Gregory, It's been a pleasure working with you to sell our house. You have given good advice all along the way.
We cannot say enough about Michael’s character and real estate talents. His intimate knowledge of the local market was invaluable during negotiations and we could not be happier our new home. Thanks for everything Michael! Mark and Joanne
We haven't met Gregory in person yet, but from our very first call we felt a real connect. Gregory is very informed and a great listener. I'm looking forward to working with him.
The moment we mentioned to Gregory we were looking to buy a vacation property in Bradenton he started to share listings that he believed would fit our needs. AND he got it right! He took the time to ask the right questions, understand our needs and within a week we made our purchase. We don't live in the state of Florida so we were not present for the closing or final inspection, but that didn't matter because Gregory represented us and shared photos putting our minds at ease. Would definitely recommend Gregory to all our family and friends!
Gregory not only found a home that checked every box, he found one in move-in condition for significantly below the upper end of my budget. I am thrilled with my new home - and I found it, quite simply, because Gregory is so good at his job. It's obvious Gregory loves what he does and his clients are the beneficiaries of his passion for real estate. Gregory is knowledgeable about the area, patient (very, very patient), committed, professional, tireless, diplomatic, never made me feel pressured to buy something, and thorough. Gregory was more than my broker: he was my advocate and partner throughout the entire home buying process. He's A+ and I could not recommend him more highly to anyone considering purchasing or selling a home in the Bradenton/Sarasota area.
Gregory I check the spam I had none. For awhile the only homes we had were from Stephanie, none came direct from you.. We were pleased when you showed us around, and want to work with you in the future. Thanks
Very good and this is bow you protect your nieborhood from jyst becoming the hood
Gregory was very easy to work with, responsive to a variety of types of questions, intuitive as to potential needs or options for a property, and just a pleasure to deal with. I would recommend him to even the most informed buyer or seller. Thank you Gregory. Talk soon!
gregory was very helpful with all of our inquiries. even gave us some insite about the area the property was in
Gregory was terrific to work with throughout the process. Very easy to reach on short notice, enjoyable to work with and very knowledgeable about every aspect of the process. I recently closed on the purchase of a house on the ocean on Anna Marie and living in another state I quickly learned that the Florida home buying process was very different from my home state. Gregory helped guide me through all the nuances of Florida real estate. He has already worked with a referral of mine and I highly recommend that anyone looking for property in Florida reach out to Gregory.
My parents referred us to Gregory. He sold their townhome and found them a perfect villa to purchase. We are so glad we hired him as our realtor! Prior to listing our house, the advice he gave us was spot on. We addressed each item he mentioned, and our house sold in three days!! Gregory is a dedicated professional, and always has his client’s best interest in mind. When it is time to look at houses, he is your guy! He has an eye for detail and was able to point out problematic areas in the homes my husband and I missed. He is a wealth of knowledge too! For example, we wanted a home with a pool. Gregory was able to provide us with information of approximate costs to have a pool, screened in patio, and fence installed. If he doesn’t have the information you need, he knows someone who does! He is a great listener; therefore, he can find a home that will “check off the boxes” on your wants/needs list. My husband and I refer our friends to Gregory whenever we have the opportunity because he is not just the best realtor in Bradenton, he is a great person as well. Thank you for everything, Gregory!
5+++ Stars! In addition to being a knowledgeable real estate professional, Greg went above and beyond in helping to sell our home! We had to be out of town on several occasions both during the open showing period, while interacting with our eventual buyer, and in advance of Hurricane Ian. Greg was happy to help from anything to making sure the home was relocked after showings, checking on pool and pump, securing loose items in advance of the storm, providing early estimates of any storm damage, getting materials out of the home for a contractor, etc, etc.! Consistently pleasant and helpful. Glad we chose the team of Valenti & Zies!
Hello
Your firm was recommended to me by a paralegal who lives in our complex. She told me to list it with Kathy Valenti and she will sell it so fast your head will spin! Her and Gregory Zies did just that! Both members of their team were in constant communication with me and had numerous showings until the unit sold. I was very impressed with their presentation of the unit and their tenacity in marketing the unit. I would highly recommend your firm to anyone wishing to sell their home. The entire process including the closing was a breeze. Gregory and Kathy were fun and easy to work together with and had many helpful suggestions. Many thanks to both of them for a great job!
Thank you Gregory for your very personal and professional service!
Gregory. Zies is a true professional at his craft. We felt very lucky to find someone like Greg. We are Mainers wanting to find a winter getaway in the Bradenton area. Looking for a condo Greg listened to our wants and needs. Greg sent us listings and kept in touch making sure he was in line with what we were looking for.He would take the time to do a walk through on FaceTime while we were still in Maine and giving us his honest opinion and being extremely helpful every step of the way.Once we found one we really liked , we flew down Greg set up a showing and the rest is history. We had to go back to Maine and Greg handled the closing for sending us all the paper work needed to be signed electronically. He couldn’t have made the process any easier . Thank You so Much Greg, My wife , now retired , was a Real Estate Broker in Maine for 30 years and we felt very comfortable Knowing that Greg was working in our best interest keeping us informed every step of the way.
Gregory Zies exceeded our expectations!!! Our house was sold quickly, at a price that was better than, we expected!!! We moved from Bradenton to Nokomis/Venice and Greg has an excellent knowledge of the area. Most of all Greg is one one the nicest and calmest people I have ever met. Moving is stressful! Greg returned our phone calls promptly and had all information ready to go for the closing. I recommend Greg without hesitation!!! He is the best!!
