Why choose a private, local real estate company?

There is a real person's name on the door, and she is accessible, active and dedicated to the community. Because Darcie Duncan is a native of Anna Maria Island, she brings unparalleled understanding of the area's growth and development, along with a keen personal history within Manatee County. Darcie attended Manatee schools from kindergarten on Anna Maria Island right through Manatee High School in Bradenton. This of course allowed her to forge very strong and long lasting relationships in the community. In turn, that experience translates into a real estate firm in which buyers and sellers are instantly connected to top local service providers, from attorneys and banks to mortgage brokers and title companies. More importantly for newcomers or rental property owners, Duncan Real Estate can also provide referrals for tried and tested handymen, inspectors, pool maintenance companies, cleaning and landscape services, and more. Duncan Real Estate takes pride in creating business to business relationships which work toward building mutually beneficial and long-lasting relationships. And this translates into top service for clients.

What is our commitment to you?

Duncan Real Estate is a partner to all of our clients--investors and primary residence owners alike. We communicate with you on a regular basis through personal phone calls, emails and mail. We'll make showing appointments with you, provide feedback after showings, and keep you informed of changes in market condition affecting your pricing or timing. Buyers will hear about new listings and new opportunities via phone, fax or email. By keeping regular track of trends affecting area sales and watching listings on the market closely to identify good values, we work to help buyers find the best options for their budget, and we help sellers to get top dollar for their properties by advising them on readying their homes for sale and pricing for market condition. When sellers face difficulties, we have resources in place to help them negotiate short sales with their lenders, if need be, and we have worked hard to become "experts" with the right resources in place to bring buyers to closing in this complicated process. In total, our commitment is to bring you the best service and satisfaction with any of your real estate needs.
