Michael Saunders & Company announced that Deborah O’Mara, a top-producing new home sales specialist, has joined their Lakewood Ranch office.
“I’m thrilled to have someone with Deborah’s extensive business background and track record in real estate and new construction on our Lakewood Ranch team,” said company founder and CEO, Michael Saunders. “Very much appreciated for her high level of energy, knowledge and integrity, Deborah’s clients can always expect an exceptional real estate experience. After living and selling real estate there for 10 years, Deborah provides the total perspective on the lifestyle options of Lakewood Ranch and other new homes communities throughout Sarasota and Manatee Counties. Her focus on customer care and follow-through not only earns her the respect of her clients but also their referrals of friends and family.”
O’Mara has enjoyed a noteworthy career in real estate and finance for over 32 years; starting as a real estate broker in Massachusetts in 1978, where she became partner in her own real estate company on Cape Cod specializing in new home sales. Deborah later relocated to Florida’s east coast, where she joined Citibank and soon became vice president of business development and marketing with real estate lending responsibilities. In 2000, she moved to Florida’s west coast and currently resides in Lakewood Ranch with her husband, Charles.
Most recently a top-producer for Neal Communities, O’Mara consistently set the pace for that company’s new home sales for over 10 years. During her tenure there, she sold over 200 new homes in Lakewood Ranch alone and has been recognized annually at the Million Dollar Circle Awards; twice as one of the “Top 5” new home sales consultants in Sarasota/Manatee, with annual sales in excess of $30 million. She has also been awarded the Master Certified Sales Professional designation.
O’Mara is a member of the Sarasota Association of Realtors (SAR), Manatee Association of Realtors (MAR) and the Sarasota Women’s Council of Realtors (WCR). She has also twice been awarded the Five-Star Real Estate Agent Best in Client Satisfaction award.
