Barbara Najmy – Spoil Yourself With Service

What sets top performing real estate agents apart from their peers is they view the profession as more of a calling than a job. There is an art to the process of cultivating client relationships, developing an understanding of an individual’s unique wants and needs, and fulfilling those expectations. Barbara Najmy is one of those people. To her, houses are more than commodities to be bought and sold; they are havens from the stresses of the outside world, places where dreams flourish and memories are created. Armed with an innate sense of how a home’s distinct architecture will impact her clients’ lives, Barbara is an excellent resource for those in the market to purchase or sell properties. Her in-depth knowledge of construction elements, paired with her strong professional network, enables her to facilitate smooth transactions and transitions for her clientele.

Barbara’s move into real estate followed years of sales and marketing experience in high-end retail settings.  A longtime interest in structural design (“I used to doodle houses and floor plans as a young girl,” she recalls), coupled with her real-time knowledge of the local marketplace, became the foundation upon which to launch her real estate practice. After working for an area condominium builder, Barbara turned her sights to the Lakewood Ranch market, where she has earned a reputation as one of the community’s top-producing professionals.

Her concierge business model is smooth and refined. Barbara has carefully crafted a portfolio of clients with whom long-term relationships have developed. “In the luxury home market, movement occurs at a different pace,” she reveals. “The fit between Realtor® and client must be strong.” She serves as a dedicated resource for her customers, providing them not only with the utmost in service throughout the process of buying or selling a home, but also in managing the transaction on a larger scale. “In my years in business, I have had the opportunity to develop strong collegial relationships with attorneys, CPAs, financial planners, builders and developers,” Barbara explains. “Together, we ensure that the clients’ long- and short-term needs are examined and accounted for.”

As an agent with Michael Saunders & Company Barbara has access to a wealth of resources, including stellar marketing and advertising options and an affiliation with a brand that is recognized locally, nationally and abroad. The firm has aligned itself with a number of luxury brokerages including Christie’s Great Estates, Leading Real Estate Companies of the World, and Luxury Portfolio, providing high-end buyers and sellers with exceptional opportunities around the world. A longtime fixture in Sarasota and Manatee County’s luxury real estate market, Michael Saunders & Company remains committed to staying at the forefront of technological and industry trends, an immeasurable value for real estate professionals and their clients.

Barbara’s attention to detail and thorough and knowledgeable approach has earned her professional accolades including a position as the top-producing agent in her Lakewood Ranch office in 2009, and recognition for closing the highest single sale within the office in 2007, 2008 & 2009. Her greatest rewards, though, come not from personal statistics but from the knowledge that she has enriched the lives of her clients. “Winston Churchill said, ‘We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give,’” she muses. “I am so thankful to my clients for enabling me to cultivate this wonderful career.”

Her life is rich with family, friends, professional ventures and community outreach.  Barbara and her husband Joe celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary in 2010. The couple has raised two amazing children, Brittany and Justin. Barbara sits on the Board of Directors of the Lakewood Ranch Community Fund, and thoroughly enjoys the opportunity to build a better life for area residents.
