Carol Giovannoni - Testimonials

They listened to what our needs were, found the perfect condo that met ALL our wants and then got us the best price and closed on time. Look no further than this team of sales professionals.

Carol and her team did a great job for us throughout this transaction. They were extremely knowledgeable and professional during the process. Their communication was very timely and on point. Would highly recommend.

Communication was great through texting and calling . I could not have asked for a better real estate team to sell my property on the beach, they were very professional, very considerate of my situation, due to the fact that I had two large dogs dogs and showings were a little iffy, but they worked with me and we were able to get it done. Keeping me informed 100% by texting and calling which was very considerate!

I can’t say enough great things about Carol and her team. What a pleasurable experience buying a home with her. Her knowledge of the housing market and the area was superb. Carol guided us each step of the way during the process. We are no strangers to buying and selling but Carol proved to be an outstanding asset. I highly recommend Carol and her team for buying and selling!

Matt has been amazing! I’ve been looking for a home for almost a year and he’s been patient and active with me from start to finish: from consistently looking (going out almost every weekend) through to closing, Matt walked me through the process every step of the way! Thank you a million times Matt and team! Couldn’t have found my home without you!

Carol and her team are an excellent team to work with.

Carol @ Remax, St Pete Beach and her team are fantastic realtors. This was our second experience! The entire team is local and know the market like no other. They are fabulous realtors if you are buying or selling. They respond fast all the time and we were able to get the very best price for our home. Carol is thorough, professional and great to work with. She kept us apprised of all showings and feedback. She is honest and forthright- no games. We are blessed to have found Carol and her team.

If you want to buy or sell a property and not lose sleep over it, I recommend using Carol and her team. They work tirelessly to make certain the process, from listing to closing, is smooth. I wouldn't use anyone else.

When we decided to list our condo, we reached out to Carol as we had worked with her team six years earlier when we bought in SPB. Carol was easy to work with, very professional, and always available to talk. Our place sold quickly and closed about 40 days after listing. Best on the beach!

. Knowledgeable, Responsive, Thorough, Professional, Caring, Personable are all adjectives that come to mind when describing how Carol and Chris handled our recent real estate purchase. They definitely deserve a six star rating.

We purchased our first condo with Carol in 1996. It was an awesome experience for our family. We have spent the last 30 years keeping in touch with Carol, something might come on the market that tweaked our interest and I would just pick up the phone and call. She would make arrangements for us to look and we moved on. Carol never once did not show us something we thought we might be interest in. Then came the flooding of our condo garage, we got tired of traveling back and forth to move a car so we started looking for garages that could accommodate our car, and Carol is and has been sending us garages as they come up for years.... nothing thus far has been exactly what we were looking for. Our children are now grown with families of their own and we cannot accommodate all of us in our condo unit. So we started a couple of years ago looking for another unit. It just didn't make sense to go outside of Silver Sands where we could all be together. We made arrangements to see one unit on a Saturday, and we thought it might be a perfect fit. It was not. We had seen another unit had come on the market the Friday before, Carol made arrangements for us to see it on Tuesday, and we made an offer that same day. Carol and I stood on the balcony, and I told her my offer, and she said I am on it. The offer was to the seller that night and there was a little negotiation, but by the next day we were in agreement. We headed back up north, and Carol's husband Chris met with the inspector when he inspected the unit. He shared his own comments on things, just as we would have wanted. Carol was on top of every question we had and we were set to close in 3 weeks. We returned to Florida and did our walk through on a Sunday evening and closed first thing Monday. It was very thorough and easy and a great pleasure to work with Carol again. So very glad we even had the opportunity to have dinner to celebrate our new purchase. Thank you Carol, we are grateful for all you have done for us.

If you want to buy a place on the beach, in particular Treasure Island, St Pete Beach and in fact anywhere on the Suncoast, this is the firm to work with. They know the area better than anyone else and work aggressively to find you the right property. I like these folks so much, this is my second beach condo in just 14 months. Thank you Carol and team for all of the great services. I will now enjoy my St. Pete Beach properties!!!

Carol worked with us to save time by customizing our search details. Together we found our new home in two days. Carol and her team are very professional, knowledgeable and were helpful throughout the process from search to close. Communication was excellent and timely during our home buying experience. They clearly have their clients' best interests at the forefront of extraordinary customer driven services.

They are very professional and treat you like family I would recommend them highly to anyone that asks

Carol, Chris, and team really exemplify the meaning of the word "team". They handled the sale of our apartment buildings. It was completely stress-free for us and they handled everything!

Carol knows the market in Gulfport! Highly recommend!

Working with Carol and her REMAX team has been a truly stellar experience. Her professional marketing approach set our property apart, and her communication style was exceptional throughout the entire process. Carol’s deep market knowledge provided us with great confidence, and her negotiation skills ensured we achieved an outstanding result. She managed every detail with the highest level of professionalism, making what could have been a stressful sale feel completely seamless. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and expert real estate partner.

Carol Giovannoni and Matt Bayliss always went above and beyond our expectations. They not only helped us sell our current home but also helped our family Buy the same property, as well as selling my sisters condo in St.Pete previously. We highly recommend the Carol and the Beach Home Team!

Carol & team were already the gold standard for real estate agents and then two hurricanes hit our islands. Without skipping a beat (and in the midst of their own upheaval) they quickly learned how to help home owners making life-changing decisions during a recovery crisis that this area has never seen. We put our trust in Carol 30 years ago and continue to have full faith in her expertise and her team’s outstanding productivity. Their research, understanding of navigating code and regulations in crisis, and integrity and kindness make them the best there is.

Matt was knowledgeable about the neighborhood, had a vast network of service providers available and was super helpful overall. He made the home buying process easy and pleasurable.

Carol was amazing during the selling process , transaction was very smooth. Very calm during what can be a stressful time. We definitely recommend . Great reputation.!

i found Carol and Chris to be professional as well as personable to work with. The experience was educational and with their help, not as difficult as the selling/buying a home can be.

Carol is very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. She offered much useful advice that relieved some of the pressure of showing our house. We are so happy with her that we’ve used her 4 times!

Professional well prepared agents performed well above expectations. They were collaborative and answered all questions promptly. Carol is someone we already recommended to someone and she is a terrific agent and even a nicer person!!!

Carol and Chris were wonderful to work with through the entire process. Always quick to respond, generous with their time, insightful, professional and friendly. The service didn't stop after the sale closed as they've been helpful post closing as well.

Carol and Chris are absolutely amazing to work with. They helped us buy our house and helped us sell it. On both sides, they went above and beyond any other realtor we have worked with in the past. I wish they could have followed us to another state. We moved out of state and they handled everything so well, and did as much as possible electronically which made it so much easier. They made us feel like we were their only customers and are so easy to get along with and in contact with, whether it be phone, text or email. The presentation packets they made to sell our house were outstanding. If we ever move back to Pinellas County, they will be our first call!

Very professional, in depth knowledge of the market and great marketing of my property.

. Carol’s attention to detail, market knowledge, communication and insight is incredible. Not only did she make sure the transaction happened, she made it easy. She was quick to schedule, quick to respond and always happy to help. Carol was even available to assist after closing. She truly goes above and beyond!

We have used Carol and her team as our agent in both the buying and selling process. We would not consider using anyone else to represent us. Carol and her team are highly knowledgeable in market conditions, skilled in negotiating, and very professional. Communication is very important to us, and Carol kept us informed during every step of the buying and selling process. She went above and beyond in getting our latest home sold in the current challenging market. We will be confidently refer her to friends, family and strangers!! Sincerely, Gemma and Don Bressoud

Carol and Chris did a wonderful job in marketing and showing our property. They kept us well informed and updated on all showings and really placed our property in the best position for a sale. Both are consummate professionals and great people too! We highly recommend Carol and Chris!

My wife and I had been familiar with Carol, Chris and team and for well over a decade, as Carol has listed and sold countless homes in our neighborhood over the years; additionally, those whom we had approached, always gave Carol & Team glowing reviews. As a result, when the day came to actually put our home on the market, we contracted w/Carol and team without hesitation, to be our Agents. Carol is what one would consider to be a lifetime resident of the area, so she knows the market (doesn't rely on GPS), knows the history of the homes, and is familiar with prior and current residents. Seeing that it had been almost 20 years since our last home sale, Carol took the time to listen to our concerns and she was able to successfully shepherd us through the process. Now, there are always times when headwinds may arise, but Carol never shied away from being transparent about any last-minute issues, and she always presented to us possible remedies or solutions. Selling your home in any market can amount to being an emotional roller coaster. Throughout the exercise, Carol always made herself available to us, to discuss even the smallest of concerns. If we were to do it all over again, we would, without hesitation, call on Carol and her team to represent our family. Thank you for giving us this opportunity to expound on Carol Giovannoni's commitment, professionalism, guidance and care to her clients and community.

Carol, Matt and their team helped us determine the home and lifestyle we desired. They worked with us through every step and communicated well each topic required to both purchase a new home and sell our old home. They explained the intricacies of all steps and transactional initiatives. Our overall experience was extremely professional, comprehensive and pleasant.

Carol and her team are exceptional. When you use a realtor twice, it says a lot. We have both bought a home and also sold a home with Carol and Chris. They have not only provided professional advice and service but represented us well. We always felt as if they had our back. Carol and Chris go beyond expectations and are extremely helpful with advice and support. We recommend them highly and value their relationship. Thanks for Realtors like Carol and Chris.

Carol Giovannoni and her team are the best of the best. If you want your home photographed well, if you want your questions answered with professional and informed information and phone calls answered promptly, if you want to be heard as a buyer or sell (she has handled both for me), if you want a flawless transaction you feel totally confident with and if you want an agent that you can trust has your back 100%, Carol and her team are the agents for you.

Carol and Chris are top rate from the time they toured my home to the final closing. They instructed us what was needed to be done to present our home in the best way. Each month they discussed the feedback from showings and continued to update us on market. They put together a professional brochure and helped monitor the property until it sold.

We are extremely pleased with our experience with Remax Preferred, Carol Giovannoni. Could not ask for better service and communication and always available

Carol was very helpful and efficient! Made the process super easy and helped me with all of my questions, needs and concerns!

Carol & Chris were immensely helpful selling my house. They both helped me grapple with all aspects of the sale. I’m very grateful for their help.

We can’t say enough great things about Carol. Her knowledge of the housing market is remarkable. She was our agent when we bought the property she just sold for us. Her expertise, knowledge, and guidance is without equal. Would not consider buying or selling a home without her representing us.

Debby was my agent on a recent purchase and s. THANK YOU to Debby Ohl and the Carol Giovannoni team! Debby was my agent on a recent purchase and she offered the highest levels of customer service. She was absolutely the best agent I have ever worked with!! She is professional, proactive and extremely helpful, going above and beyond. This home buying experience has been very enjoyable and I highly recommend her services.

Carol saved us after we lost our home to Hurricane Helene and didn't know how to proceed. Her extensive market knowledge was bar none to other agents. She was able to navigate the process like a true professional and did so with grace and ease. She answered every frantic text and call in an amazing timely manner and never faltered from her professionalism. She figured out how to get our sale across the line when it felt like it was going to be an impossible feat. I would recommend Carol to anyone and everyone looking to buy or sell property along the beaches.

Consummate professionals. Carol and Chris sold our home for my wife and I last May and also were our agents for the recent purchase of our new residence, a beach condo. They are so good at what they do. Consummate and competent professionals, and more importantly, just good people. Arrange showings at a minute's notice (sorry Carol 😞 😉) and very timely at doing any and all related "tasks" required during the real estate purchase/sales process. If you're looking for an agent, look no further because they are the ones you need. Thank you both! It was a pleasure to work with you.

This is the second condo I've sold with Carol G & her team. So helpful, professional and easy to work with. I felt confident using Carol a second time this year and was not disappointed!

Carol and Chris were on the top of everything.. we could not have asked for better treatment. We have already recommended them to our friends. They are both very caring and we felt we were in exceptional good hands

I was very happy with my experience working with Chris and Carol. Chris made it easy and was willing to work around my schedule in looking at new homes. Both Carol and Chris were prompt and responsive to my questions and concerns.

My husband and I have worked with Carol for the past 12 years (being the buyer and the seller on unique transactions). Whether Carol is representing you as the buyer or the seller---she will always have your best interest at heart--working tirelessly to ensure she is representing your specific goals. Not only is she knowledgeable and professional---but simply one of the best people to pull into your orbit.

Carol and her team were extraordinarily helpful and knowledgeable throughout the sale process. Highly recommended!

Working with Carol was an excellent experience! She is highly skilled in all the aspects of the real estate world and is great at shepherding one through the entire process! It was as smooth as it could have been!

Carol & her team were so helpful in selling my mother's condo. Carol helped us with every aspect of the sale: the paperwork needed for the condo association, the pricing options, minor repairs needed, making the property look it's best...really everything!! nShe always returned phone calls & emails promptly. nA pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her & her team.

Carol helped me purchase a lovely beach house. She was very professional and made purchasing while I was primarily out of the state seamless.
