Lin And Maurice were excellent! We moved from New York, we knew the laws were different and the buying process was different but, they informed us of other differences we had not considered, (one example: insurance) which was good to know. These guys listened to everything that we asked for in a house, such as location, our life style, and expectations. We found what we wanted. They are a great team.
We’re just getting started with our Florida home search. We aren’t even going sure where in Florida we want to buy. So far, Maurice has been awesome. Very patient. Very understanding.
Un grand merci pour votre aide. Je salue votre professionnalisme; Je fais allusion, bien sur , à la fameuse "FRENCH TOUCH". Trés cordialement PS: plus d'étoiles vers "excellent"
Very knowledgeable kept us updated with the real estate ,meeting our need. Very friendly and the signing of the documents through the website was very convenient
Maurice is one of the best! Very attentive to my wants and needs in looking and buying a house. He knew exactly what I was looking for and didn’t stop looking until he found it. Very professional but yet down to earth. I highly recommend Team Dunn!
Linda Holley & Maurice were wonderful to work with
Maurice was wonderful to work with! He and his partner Lin Dunn sold our condo for a record price in a very short time. Maurice was present for all showings, which we appreciated as he was able to give potential buyers information about the condo that the showing agent might not have known. He knows the Sarasota market extremely well, and responded quickly to texts and calls. We have bought and sold many homes over the years, and this was absolutely one of the best experiences we have had with an agent. We give him our highest recommendation! PS...you will love his beautiful French accent!
Always cheerful and upbeat, Lin provides value-added guidance and advice - based on years of experience - to the process of buying or selling a home. As a long-time resident, he knows the Sarasota area very well - a definite plus for a buyer who is new to the area. Backed by the top-rated Michael Saunders & Co, Lin is a great choice as a Realtor for buyers and/or sellers.
As always, Lin was extremely qualified and helpful.
Lin had been working on finding us an existing home when we decided to purchase a new build. Lin wasn’t even getting a commission on our purchase but still took time out to counsel us through the entire process and still is. Lin also helped us secure a rental in the interim in the same desired school district until our home is completed. Lin is always upbeat, friendly and super positive. He’s also highly knowledgeable in the real estate industry especially in Sarasota where I believe he has 20 years experience. Customer service excellence and area expertise is what we experienced with Lin. Lin always keeps us updated, offers his perspective on important decision making and anytime we reach out to him he quickly responds to our needs. Lin is our go to real estate agent for life. Anyone that works with Lin is fortunate and benefits from his kindness, attentiveness and expertise. Thank you Lin!
Maurice was the consummate professional...knowledgeable, friendly, honest and patient. He was a delight to work with.
I couldn't have found two better real estate Agent than Lin and Maurice. They work as a great team and make buying my condo a pleasure. I will recommend them to all my friends and family. Thank you both so much! They have a five star rating from me.
Maurice as polite, professional and most of all quick to respond to our questions
Absolutely professionalism prompt and dependable. Great experience not only did I use them once but i used them twice. I would highly recommend them if you want a great team to either list , sale , or buy ! Above and beyond in customer service !!
Excellence doesn't describe the level of care, knowledge & professionalism my wife & I have received from Lin and Maurice. They have set a new level high to the bar.
Excellent real estate professionnal , Maurice is understanding client needs. As Canadian we were able to manage our investment decision with all the support provided bu Maurice. Thank you very much Maurice; talk to you soon!
Lin and Maurice are THE MOST INCREDIBLE REALTORS we have ever worked with! This is the second house we have sold with them and will definitely work with them on another. They are so professional, understanding, attentive, helpful, honest. We highly recommend them to everyone we know.
We are from Canada and recently purchased a home in Sarasota. Lin was fantastic at every turn. He was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic about Sarasota and spent a lot of time with us helping us find our dream home. Throughout the whole process he went above and beyond. We were so impressed with his patience and level of Customer Service. He made things so easy for us, providing guidance, information and valuable recommendations along the way. What a pleasure it has been working with both Lin and Maurice. We would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone wishing to purchase a home in the Sarasota area.
Maurice is wonderful to work with. I’ve worked with him before and loved it. He will work very hard for you. The process of buying a property can be stressful and he makes it fun.
My husband and I bought a condo in downtown Sarasota and then several years later upgraded to a house with Lin acting as our agent, tour guide and friend. Lin also sold our condo for us. We were new to Sarasota and Lin spent time showing us around and then taking me to different furniture stores so that I could furnish the condo. What topped everything was when we were flying in to Sarasota and to what was then an empty condo and Lin offered to order a bed for us so that we would have somewhere to sleep when we arrived. We were arriving in the evening and I brought sheets with me to make up the bed. When we got to the condo, there was the bed, fully made up with fresh sheets, new pillows, even a bed spread and skirt. Needless to say, this was service way beyond what we expected or had ever experienced before. Lin likes being helpful and will go out of his way to make everything as smooth as possible for his clients.
Maurice, Linn and Linda of the Dunn team are exceptional! Everyone of them have different strengths, and they let each other exercise their strengths, and work together as a team. From open houses, brokers open houses, to brokers cocktail get togethers at our home job number one was to get our home sold. These people did in 90 days what the big name could not do in over a year. They paid attention to every detail, and went so far above what they said they would do, I was constantly amazed by the entire team. First you have Maurice, The Refined one, who always keeps his composure and I do not think has ever uttered a swear word. Then you have Linda who is always out shaking the bushes for a new listing or customer, or to get a listing or getting a home sold. Then you have Linn, The Negotiator, He is the one who makes reality happen. He knows what the home is worth and is going to get as close as possible for it, and at the same time tell you honestly exactly what his thoughts are with NO pressure. They should re-name their team to the DONE Team, because if they list your home they will get the job DONE quickly and efficiently, and with the least amount of stress on the seller. When you list your home with them you are actually getting a piece of them, they all work so diligently to get the job done, and finishing second is not an option with this team. Beside the fact that they are incredibly ethical, they are all wonderful human beings, and I consider them friends not just business associates. If you want to get the job DONE hire the Best , THE DUNN TEAM, you will NOT be sorry.
We would like to thank Maurice for his excellent efforts on our behalf in selling our apartment. He was professional at all times, never late for an appointment and gave his time generously- even coming to see us in the evening or at a weekend. For which we are very grateful. The entente cordiale is still alive and kicking!! Merci beaucoup Susan and Colin Hill
attentive, polite, professional when he says he will send info he does
Abraham Lincoln said: “Whatever you are, be a good one.” These two are a perfect definition of just that! If you’re dedicated to helping people find their next dream home, focus on delivering the customer service people expect. Doing so will generate referrals, 5-star reviews, and provide brand lift. Lin and Maurice most definitely fit that criteria for sure! I've known them for years and it's always been a pleasure working with them. I've heard in past conversations people use the expression " you have a million dollar smile! " ... WELL .. for Lin I must say has the "million dollar LAUGH" of a lifetime! One of a kind for sure! If you disagree then well ... you must be confused not me, :) Awesome and respectful customer service all way around and I always leave their presence with a "million dollar smile" of my own from mouth to ear! THANKS AGAIN GUYS!
Trés compètent , patient et a l'écoute du client . Sans lui je n'aurais pu vendre mon terrain en Floride . Parle Français et Anglais couramment puisque Francais de souche , je recommande vivement sans hésiter !
Lin has been a close family friend for many years and was especially close to my parents. He has a way of getting to know people that makes them feel understood and special. My mom used to say that all she had to do was hear his laugh from a distance, and it would make her happy. When she passed away recently, he was right there to help, and when it came time to sell her home, he treated it with the greatest of care. When Lin comes into your home to help you get it ready for the market, it is like watching magic. He moves quickly from space to space and before you know it, your home has been transformed. His creativity is definitely not limited to decorating. It is evident in the way he formulates his ideas and plans. He thinks outside the box, gathers people together, generates excitement and energy, and knows how to built a feeling of camaraderie among people. Lin's professionalism is seen in his diligence, tireless hard work, and willingness to please his clients. He is an expert in contracts and in navigating the ins and outs of delicate negotiations. His experience allows him to have a great deal of knowledge that he freely shares with clients and colleagues alike. When you work with Team Dunn, you can be sure that Lin is working proactively on your behalf. He is constantly thinking of new and creative ways to make sure his clients and friends experience a happy outcome. I have written separate testimonials for both Lin Dunn and Maurice Menager. However, when you have Team Dunn on your side, you have more than two great realtors. They work together like a well oiled machine, dividing the tasks and making sure all the bases are covered by using the talents and skills of each to the best outcome. I have never had a moment of doubt that I have had the very best realtors Sarasota has to offer!
It is always a pleasure working with Maurice & Lin.
Great experience today at an open house with Maurice and Lin. In such a crazy market, these guys were super patient and attentive. Makes my job as a buyer's agent so much easier. Thanks gentlemen!
A wonderful agent to partner with on any transaction!
Lin is so good and dedicated to our home search and purchase. Always quick on the response, taking time to explain and make sure we understand various aspects of looking for and buying a house in an area that we are not familiar with. Can't imagine anyone doing a better job of getting us our new home in Sarasota. A 10 star rating if it were available, but definitely a 5.
Maurice is professional, communicates/articulates every step of the process...even better sold the home quickly!!! I was most impressed with the detailed marketing photos and brochures the most professional quality I have ever seen.
Fab!
Maurice found the perfect condo for us after we searched for 2 winter seasons. Maurice has exceeded our expectations as an agent with his professionalism, extensive knowledge, courtesy, and prompt set up of all the listings that we viewed. We would highly recommend Maurice to buy or sell your property. You won’t be disappointed!
We are delighted with the time, attention to detail, and high level of customer service that Maurice and Lin have been providing as they represent our home. We are confident that we have the best agents possible working for us!
Lin Dunn was not even our agent when my wife and I bought our vacation rental on Siesta Key. He was the seller's agent. I was instantly impressed with his kindness and professionalism, so I asked him to manage the place for us. Lin was there for us through the good times and the hard times. He went way beyond the "call of duty" to keep things rolling smoothly. I flew out there to do some fix up work, and he was there helping me get things done. When it came time to sell the place, there was no question in my mind that I could completely trust Lin to make things happen. It was a down market at the time, but he once again came through for us. I would recommend Lin to my best friends.
Merci Monsieur Ménager pour le travail que vous avez effectué lors de la vente de mon terrain à Port Charlotte. (Floride) Vous avez toujours été disponible et vous m’avez épaulé dans toutes les démarches aussi bien administratives que comptables. Toutes vos explications étaient claires et limpides. Je ne peux que vous recommander auprès de personnes qui veulent réaliser des transactions immobilières en Floride. Bien cordialement. Christophe Durand ??????????
We had an excellent experience working with Maurice Menager and Lin Dunn. They are extremely knowledgeable regarding the current market conditions and on top pf all potential issues. Team Dunn goes above and beyond with their services adding extra value for sellers. In our condo, they helped us figure out small fixes to present the property better and liaised with the condo board for us. We were in the stressful process of relocating out of state and they did everything they could to make our sale process smooth for us. We are very grateful for their expertise and high service level. We will use them again in the future.
I feel absolutely “Delighted” to be able to share with you the “Extremely Positive and Wonderful” experience I had with your realty team of Lin Dunn and Maurice Menager! Lin and Maurice are more than realtors who go through the functions of performing professional selling transactions for their clients. I know they both truly “Care” about each client, and they treated me just like family, which means so much to me! As I was a single lady with no family members living in the area, Lin and Maurice opened up their home to me for over two weeks after I moved out of my home and waited to move into my new home. They made me feel so at home and just like family when I stayed with them, and I appreciated this so much. They truly do care about their clients, and they open up themselves to others, and they are “Amazing”!! I honestly would never have found my beautiful new home without the assistance of Lin and Maurice, and I feel like I’ve made two new friends that will last a lifetime! I will definitely “Always” recommend Lin and Maurice to my family, friends, co-workers, or anyone who is wanting to find or sell a home as they are truly “Exceptional”, caring, and so professional! They go above and beyond for their clients as they want you to be happy! I’m so grateful for their help, and they did a beautiful job in selling my home and finding me the “Perfect” new home to move into!
Maurice was meticulous, assiduous, and a joy to work with. 5 stars in every way.
My wife and I were very fortunate to work with Lin Dunn and Maurice Menager who ably assisted us in our successful search to find a home in Sarasota. Maurice is highly knowledgeable about the local market and each particular neighborhood in which we visited properties, which included Longboat Key, Siesta Key, the Landings, Pelican Cove and Palmer Ranch. He often assisted Lin Dunn as we continued our search for a house in Sarasota. He was particularly helpful in pointing out features of individual homes that we visited, taking care to make sure that we did not overlook some of the less obvious aspects of particular properties that we might not have noticed otherwise or given adequate consideration. His fluency in French was an advantage because my wife is a native French speaker herself. We always enjoyed working with Maurice and Lin.
It has been a great pleasure dealing with Maurice. He is professional, prompt and reliable.
Maurice did a excellent job We would highly recommend Him Always available he is very professional, he knows perfectly the market He made the selling of our condo in a challenging time with COVID-19 and has been successful with a smooth process. Thank you so much Maurice We will keep in touch for sure and will wait you and Lin for a Xmas market in Strasbourg Toutes nos amitiés
Lin was excellent. We could not have purchased on Siesta Key without Lin. Lin is very personal and knowledgeable of the area. A realtor who became a friend to my wife and I. 5 stars! John O'Neill
Linn was great. Our first outing with him on a all rainy day was great he really paid attention to what we wanted and also showed what we thought we wanted and showed us why we didn't. The second outing and ultimate purchase was all because while he listened and heard everything we said he also heard what we didn't say and found us the place we didn't know we wanted. We couldn't be happier. Future transactions, and we plan on additional transactions, will go no place else but with Linn Thank you Linn
EXCELLENT......The buyer even stated that she was so impressed with Maurice, he was one of the factors that precipitated her purchase. She was sure that if he was representing the property, then the property was impressive! It should be noted that the buyer is a former real estate agent in Chicago and knew of what she spoke!
Maurice is a true professional. Every interaction with him has been a positive experience. I would and have recommended him to my customers.
Maurice is very attentive and polite. Wonderful realtor.
We really enjoyed working with both Linn and Maurice. Very professional. Easy to work with. The experience was so easy that there is not much to say! If you want the best call them.
A real pleasure to deal with. Professional, knowledgeable and punctual.
I wish I was a better writer to better be able to express how much we think of Lin! He was absolutely great to work with! He was super knowledgeable of the Siesta Key area and market and extremely responsive and thorough to all our questions. Lin was always positive and fun to work with... he offered us experience and insight that made us feel good & comfortable with all our decisions! What more can you ask for? We highly recommend him for anyone looking for a great agent!
This is our second time using Lin Dunn and Maurice Menager to represent us to sell our properties They are extremely hard working realtors who really know their business and know how to present a property to the prospective buyer. They also have great contacts in the industry for whatever the needs of your property. In addition we hope we will always be their friends.
Lin is an experienced realtor with a solid knowledge base of the local market and current pricing. He orchestrated and developed excellent marketing materials and brochures, ensured my property was correctly entered into the local multiple listing services and then actively marketed to the broader community. In addition, Lin exceeded my expectations when my AC failed and I was unavailable. He coordinated various AC providers and got it fixed. There were a couple of other instances where his service went beyond the "typical realtor's support". Ultimately, property sold near asking price. He did an excellent job.
Five Stars does'nt begin to express the level of professionalism, care & experience Maurice has. From the very beginning of our experience with him we have felt at ease knowing that we are being treated & handle by a caring professional who we can trust. The ordeal of moving is stressful enough, but it sure is nice knowing that on the other side of the coin,.......the sale & purchase of our home, is being handle by people who know what they are doing & care.
Lin has been our realtor in Sarasota area for over 20 years. We have both bought and sold several times with him. He is extremely knowledgeable about the area and very honest. You know that he has your best interest in mind whether you are buying and selling. I put my full trust in him and confident that he only wants his clients to be happy. I have also refereed several people to Lin, one being my father when he moved to the area and he was extremely impressed and comfortable with Lin. I will continue to refer friends and family to Lin, I feel that he is the best at his job and is a very caring and professional person.
My experience talking with Maurice. I knew right away that he is very knowledgeable in what he does. He is a credit to his Profession.
I give Lin Dunn 6 stars. He is the third realtor I have worked with in a short time- I am not demanding but do have expectations. Lin exceeds them all. He listened to my requirements & put together a list that checked each box. I give him a 100% recommendation.
We loved our entire experience working with Lin and Maurice. They went above and beyond to satisfy us and help us with our needs. We would highly recommend them to others when looking for realtors. They picked up a car for us, helped us to arrange storage between our arrival and closing, arranged a condo to rent. They are true professionals and always are ready to help with a smile and a can-do attitude. Michael Saunders & Company is fortunate to have such dedicated employees.
Maurice was a pleasure to work with. He made the selling of our home in a challenging time with COVID-19 an easy process. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is considering selling their home that want a professional approach as well as an honest sales consultant.
We have worked with Maurice before and he is always responsible and professional. We recommend him h
Lin is the best realtor you will ever find in Sarasota. He is extremely knowledgeable and accommodating in every way, before, during and after the sale. He has greatly exceeded our expectations.
5 stars!!!!! I listed my house after work one day, and when I woke up in the morning Linn had 3 offers waiting for me!!!!!!
Wow !!! On a vendu notre maison de Sarasota uniquement grâce à notre extraordinaire agent immobilier Maurice Ménager de l'équipe à mr. Linn Dunn chez Michael Sounders Realtors.

Même si nous avons dû sortir notre offre de vente du marché, notre agent d'immeuble Maurice Ménager se rendait régulièrement à notre maison pour voir l'avancée des travaux de restauration et nous envoyer ensuite au Québec des photos pour nous tenir au courant. Il nous a suggéré même suggéré des travaux d'amélioration intérieur et des nouveaux électro ménagers ( sic) plus tendances, conseils que nous avons suivi naturellement. Il nous a référé à une comptable pour la gestion de nos taxes et impôts américains après vente ( en français !). Etc. etc. etc...

Louise Ruel & Alain Manseau Repentigny, Qc, Canada
Very professional from start to finish , Linn and Maurice go above and beyond to satisfy their Clients been using them over 12 years can’t wait for the next house
A friend referred us to Maurice and we are so happy she did. Maurice’s level of service and attention to detail just blew us away. He was always there for us as we searched for and bought our new home. He and Lin contacted or recommended the services we needed to make our home move-in ready—what a bonus service! Maurice was such a part of our lives for the last eight weeks that we’re really going to miss him!
I've been communicating with Lin Dunn, not Maurice. Any communications I have had with Maurice have been very positive. EARL hEFLEY
This is not my first experience engaging Maurice to sell a property. He sold my condo several years ago and helped me purchase a house. The attention to detail, knowledge of the area, understanding the client and listening skills are beyond compare. I realized just how top notch when I recently used another realtor for a transaction. A mistake I will not repeat. There is no comparison. As Maurice is now helping me sell that mistake and buy something suitable for me, I would suggest anyone looking for a real estate professional talk to Maurice before enlisting anyone else.
I have not had the pleasure of meeting Maurice in person but all other contact has been pleasant and very professional!!
Lucky if you deal with Maurice. He is everything the good agent should be. He is knowledgeable, honest, patient and meticulous in his work. We spent three days together. As a result, based on his research and our priorities we bought an apartment in Sarasota. We saw around 15 properties from Sarasota to Venice. He was guiding us in every step. Can’t wish for more.
Maurice Memager and Linn Dunn are superb real estate brokers. They answer all my questions honestly and always make me feel well taken care of. I will recommend them both To all my friends.
Lin, has provided my family and I exceptionally superior service in our search for a shore property. He has taken the time to research the properties that will meet our needs and keeps us informed when they become available. Following up with us after he shows them to us.
It is always a pleasure workinmg with you.
When you work with someone on one of life's larger transactions, you want to have this man on your side. There is a lot to learn, Lin does that. Alot to do, organize and accomplish, and he is there every step with every detail. From the start he was clear he wanted me to be happy with the process and the outcome. When have you had someone offer that level of service? He stayed in contact. And ultimately Lin brought me the competing offers on my condo (yea). And really got me the best price he could. It is life changing (in a very good way) to work with someone with such professionalism, authenticity and joy. All the best to him in the future is my sincere wish.
I was very pleased to be able to work with Lin Dunn when purchasing our vacation home. We met with Lin and within hours had paperwork completed and we were on our way back to Wisconsin. All of the follow up was done very efficiently. Lin was quick to respond to any questions no matter what time of day and I felt he went over and above to get our closing completed and make sure I had all the information I needed in a timely manner. From the minute I met Lin at the property l felt comfortable. He is a very personable and exudes professionalism. If asked I would not hesitate to recommend Lin as the go-to guy for buying or selling property.
Working with Lin and Maurice has been such a pleasure. My first real estate experience in Florida was not terrific. However, my experience with Lin and Maurice has been exceptional. They took the time to really listen to my needs and timetables while managing expectations. No pressure, no hard sell. Just a genuine desire to make such a big purchase the absolute right one for their buyer. I would certainly encourage anyone looking to buy in the Sarasota market to talk with Lin and Maurice. You will not be disappointed.
Five stars. Even above excellent. Maurice went above and beyond the call of duty. We would highly recommend him to family and friends.
We forgot to mention that Maurice was kind and patient with us and very supportive during a very difficult time especially during Sue's illness. He always responded to our concerns in a timely manner. Maurice even went out of his way to send us the closing papers from when we purchased the unit in 2001. We consider him a friend who's always welcome to visit us in Wisconsin. Sincerely, Sue & Pat Hanratty
Lynn Dunn did an exceptional job selling my Mom's house. I would recommend Lynn. If you want your house sold by a professional he is your man.
Maurice and Lin are the best real estate agents I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. Having been an agent myself in Sarasota, and having dealt with many other agents in the area, I truly feel Maurice and Lin are the cream of the crop and second to none. Their communication, attention to detail and overall care of our listing made us feel like family not just a client. I would recommend them 10 times out of 10!!
We had a wonderful experience with all people at the agency in Siesta Key and specially with Mr Maurice Menager. He is very professionnal. He knows very well the market and was able to help us on all the aspects during our search for apartment. We also appreciated his availability, his seriousness and always with kindness. As we are French, it was not easy to understand specificities. He knew how to explain us all the important points, to answer all our questions and to help us for the contract. We would not have been able to find better team and we were always in confidence. Definitively, we’ll again want to work with him for our next purchase.
We would like to acknowledge Lin Dunn and Maurice Menager, who were so wonderful to work with. Not only were they very professional and extremely knowledegable, but so very friendly and personable. Lin and Maurice gave us a tour of Sarasota, the various neighborhoods, activities to do and restaurants, and helped us fall in love with the area. When we found the house we wanted, Lin and Maurice worked diligently to help us get it. They kept us informed and updated, almost on a daily basis regarding the process through closing. Having made our move to Sarasota and absolutely loving it and our new home, it wouldn't have happened as easily as it did without the expertise of Lin and Maurice. You have an exceptional organization and we are proud to say that Lin and Maurice from Michael Saunders & Company represented us in our home purchase.
Lin & Maurice were a pleasure to work with for the sale of our Sarasota condo. They were very professional throughout the sale cycle enabling a smooth transition from listing to closing.
My wife and I were very fortunate to work with Lin Dunn and Maurice Menager who ably assisted us in our successful search to find a home in Sarasota. Lin was highly knowledgeable about the local market and each particular neighborhood in which we visited properties, which included Longboat Key, Siesta Key, the Landings, Pelican Cove and Palmer Ranch. He was tireless in his efforts to learn and help us develop and formulate what types of properties and neighborhoods appealed to us and directing us towards properties that should be considered. He is affable, highly personable and very effective, and we always enjoyed working with him. He was particularly good in following up on each request that we had. In short, we would not hesitate to use him again if we were to look for another property.
Lin and Maurice went out of their way to help us in every manner possible. They were extremely knowledgeable and ethical beyond any standards. I have never encountered realtors who were so kind and empathetic as Lin and Maurice. My wife, Sue, has a serious autoimmune disorder so she can’t travel anymore. She is wracked with pain. As the disease saps her of her eyesight and ability to walk, she is only left with the wonderful memories we had at Gulf & Bay. It killed us to sell the beautiful condo she created but it was foolish to hold onto something we could never get to. I would recommend both Lin and Maurice to anyone and everyone.
What a Great Team these professionals make! I just happened to be out looking at house with Maurice and found our Dream Home. Both Maurice and Lin are both very knowledgeable about the surrounding areas and were very eager to show us around as we were from out of state. "Thank you Maurice and Lin" for a job well done and I will absolutely recommend your team for any friends that are moving in to the area. You both did a wonderful job from start to the closing. (A+++ Excellent Rating) Greg Stone and Ron York
A few years ago, when we were new to Sarasota and looking for a place to live in the winter, Lin helped us determine our needs and wishes, showed us a terrific selection of homes, and guided us through the negotiation process and the purhase agreement. Since then, he has continued to be a wonderful "ambassador" for Sarasota by keeping in touch and providing unexpected but welocme orientation to the area, its tradespeople and its culture. We are happy to recommend Lin Dunn as a realtor you can rely on. (Five Stars!) Nancy and Rob J.

Lin Dunn is such a great realtor to work with! Knowledgeable, professional, and Happy!
Maurice and Lin offer an intriguing approach to real estate. Their solutions are not “one size fits all”, .Instead precisely targeted strategies matched with precise tactics are used to address different market conditions. They are experienced at serving the growing European market, especially France. Their service is fantastic and patient. We have known them for 20 years during which time, they have helped us sell 2 properties successfully They provided us with badly needed advice and assistance every step of the way given we’re Canadian. We very much appreciate their expertise and value the friendship we’ve built up. Also Maurice cooks a superb meal!
Dealing with Maurice and Lin (Team Dunn) on the sale of our condominium was an excellent experience. They went above and beyond any expectations a seller could have. They had open houses every weekend and kept us informed of any feedback they received. They worked very hard until the end to insure that our unit sale would close. I applaud them for the patience they had dealing with both my husband and I. I would not hesitate to list any other property with them again.
We thank Maurice for his excellent efforts on our behalf in selling our apartment. He was professional at all times and never late for an appointment. He gave his time generously even in the evening and weekends. We were appreciative of his help after we had left Sarasota and the buyer had to extend the closing date. Maurice went back to check the apartment because the electricity was off. There was only one thing that slipped through the net - we had to pay condominium fees for the closing date extension requested by the buyer. We can say that at the end of the whole selling process the entente cordiale is still very much alive!
We engaged Lin Dunn and Maurice Menager to market and sell our condominium and were pleased with their professional approach, thoroughness and knowledge of the local market. Both Maurice and Lin were forthright and engaging and kept us abreast of any and all developments. We appreciated their input and guidance when we had specific concerns and questions. Both of these gentlemen would be people we would work with again. Thank you Lin and Maurice, Shiela Wright & Lawrence DeMilner
What a Great Team these professionals make! I just happened to be out looking at house with Maurice and found our Dream Home. Both Maurice and Lin are both very knowledgeable about the surrounding areas and were very eager to show us around as we were from out of state. "Thank you Maurice and Lin" for a job well done and I will absolutely recommend your team for any friends that are moving in to the area. You both did a wonderful job from start to the closing.

Working with Maurice has been a wonderful experience. His professional manner and expertise is truly appreciated. I couldn't ask for more of a real estate agent!!
My wife Laney and I were made to feel welcome when we walked in Lins office, he is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and likeable.He comes across as an honest guy who knows the area well. He follows up and does what he says he'll do. We highly recommend him.
To say that team Dunn made the sale of my condo on Siesta effortless for me is an understatement. Their expertise in handling the sale and getting the best price for my condo was greatly appreciated. This is the second real estate transaction we have had together and if I were to buy again it would be only with team Dunn. Thanks Maurice and Lin you are both the best.
Lin and Maurice, helped my daughter and her family relocate from Atlanta to Siesta Key, Florida in 2008. I lived in Atlanta at the time and was selling real estate, but Lin and Maurice were here to help my family with their smooth transition to Florida. After I relocated to Sarasota, I had the privilege of working as a REALTOR with Team Dunn from July 2017-March 2020. I had enough real estate experience to be dangerous. Today I'm with a different real estate brokerage, but looking back on my time with them, I'm so thankful for the things they taught me. They educated me on many of my own transactions, saved some of my own deals from falling apart, showed me the best way to put together CLEAN contracts, savvy listing presentations, and that the customers always come first--even the difficult ones! Through Lin and Maurice, I learned that there are times we just need to get away, trust that other REALTORS will do a good job in our absence, and cherish the time we have put aside for friends and family. If you are a buyer or seller and have the opportunity to work with Lin and Maurice, they are the best of the best.
Maurice and Lin did a fantastic job selling my mother's condo. The sale went through within a month of the listing date and everything went smoothly. Maurice and Lin went out of their way to be as helpful as possible and took care of all the details. They were very pleasant and we enjoyed them both.
Their service is amazing. They've handled four transactions for us - some of which were unfortunately difficult. I think one of the telling things is that after helping us either buy or sell, our neighbours have often elected to deal with them after watching how hard and smart they worked. Anything more? They are plesent people - even under duress. Of which there can be plenty in any Florida real estate transaction.
Lin and Maurice are wonderful personable realtors and I could not be more pleased. They communicated so well while selling my condo in kansas city and buying in Sarasota. They are patient and knowledgeable and both have a great sense of humor, which is refreshing, and needed, when purchasing a new home. I highly recommend this great team.
Our experience with Lin Dunn was excellent! My wife and I were a little apprehensive about leaving Illinois and looking to buy a home in Siesta Key, Florida. We had visited Siesta Key only a few times. A family friend, who is also a Realtor, referred us to Lin Dunn as she did not feel she had the expertise to meet our needs. Lin is a true professional. Lin first introduced himself telephonically and spent a good hour getting to know us and what our housing needs were (single-family, townhouse, condo) and if we were looking for more of a golf course community or more of an eclectic beachy lifestyle. Rose and I did not have good answers for Lin, so Lin decided to dedicate several days educating us on Sarasota and Siesta Keys. We learned about Palmer Ranch, West of the Trail, to condos on the beach and so much more. After days with Lin, we were able to let Lin know we did not like any housing that entailed major renovation or knocking down a house, so Lin focused us on new construction housing or vacant lots. With Lin's help, we decided that golf course living was not for us and eclectic beachy was for us. Lin then narrowed down the search to empty lots (mostly quarter acre) and homes that we could buy and knockdown. With Lin's help, we were able to purchase a half-acre lot just a 10-minute walk from the Siesta Key Village!!! How great!! Lin also introduced us to four builders. After interviewing them or their representatives, Rose and I were confident that John Cannon Homes was the right builder for us. We have had several meetings with the builder and have made most of our selections. Lin continues to stay involved as we build to help us with encroachment issues, tree removal and general information and referrals to contractors that we might need. Lin Dunn represents your company in the most professional and fun way. I would highly recommend Lin Dunn and have recommended him to family members who are thinking of moving to Florida.
Maurice was very pleasant and professional. He answered any questions I had. I will contact him if I have any questions.
Bonjour !! I have worked with both Maurice and Lin . I have purchased and sold with their help. They are fast knowledgeable, considerate, and on the cutting edge in the property market. Their experience in the County , and beyond is expansive. I have made several moves in my lifetime, from coast to coast. Trust me when I tell you, trust them with finding your happy space !! Love these guys. I knew them well enough to break bread with them, and I would do it again tomorrow if I were in Fla. The California coast is not so bad either Happy Holidays to all, and to all my wish to find your house to turn into a home. Bonsoir Susan
Maurice has been a beloved family friend for many years, and we have witnessed firsthand his great personal qualities over that time. He is a man of integrity, intelligence, energy, diligence, and genuine kindness for all those around him. He is never too busy to give someone a kind word of encouragement or ask how he can be of help. He is positive and steady, and can be relied on for his consistency. When it came time to sell our family home, he was right there, ready to help. In his role as our realtor, he remained the friend we had always known, but added his professional skills to the mix. He is proactive, positive, very knowledgeable, always prepared with the information you need, and seems to have endless energy for working with others. He finds the good in every situation, and is an excellent negotiator. He negotiates not by manipulating people, but by truly seeking the best outcome for everyone involved. You could never go wrong by placing your trust in him as your realtor, and in the process you will have gained a true friend.
You two are the best!
I would highly recommend Lin Dunn if you want a professional to sell your home . I live outside of Florida and Lin went above and beyond to make my experience of selling my Mothers home after she passed away. His personality is above any realtor that I have had any experience with. I was selling my home in St Louis Mo and buying a home in Town and Country Mo. The realtor I used in Missouri didn't keep me informed as well as Lin did in Florida.
Our experience with Lin Dunn of Team Dunn has been exceptional! My wife and I walked into Michael Saunders office and he immediately made us feel welcome. Lin is very honest and direct with his information, which we really appreciated. With so many communities and condominiums in Siesta Key, Lin's experience and knowledge was invaluable when choosing our property. 5-star service!
enjoyed working with Maurice, and were pleased view so many properties in short order. Many thanks to Team Dunn!
Maurice is the best! He is very personable, extremely knowledgable, and will go the extra mile to promptly book showings. We are confident he will find our dream condo in the near future!

Bonjour, Après avoir fait des recherches sur internet, nous sommes tombés sur le lien de l'agence Michael Sanders.Nous avons été mis en contact avec Mr Maurice Ménager . J'ai fait affaire en immobilier en France, au Canada et maitenant en Floride et s'il y a bien un agent à vous recommander c'est Maurice. Il connaît son métier sur le bout des doigts, les styles de maisons les quartiers les rentabilités etc... La meilleure expérience de ma vie dans l'achat d'une maison à Venice ( floride) on ne peut trouver mieux. Toujours présent et d'une réactivité hors du commun . Je mets un AAA++++ à Maurice et en souhaitant faire d'autres affaires avec lui.
I could not ask for a more considerate, knowledgeable & educated realtor. He listens & HEARS what i want & need!! He shows me homes that fit me!! Not just push something for the commission. If you put yourself into Maurice's capeable hands you will be well taken care of & find a home that will fit you & your family to a T!!
Un énorme merci à Maurice MENAGER qui a été à nos côtés du début à la fin. Ne résidant pas aux USA, son aide a été très précieuse. Nous vous recommandons chaudement cette agence immobilière.
Lin and Maurice are THE MOST INCREDIBLE REALTORS we have ever worked with! This is the second house we have sold with them and will definitely work with them on another. They are so professional, understanding, attentive, helpful, honest. They even offered to stage the house before every showing if we were unable to be around to do it. Just wonderful human beings.We highly recommend them to everyone we know.
5 stars, of course! The legend lives on... the only realtor you will ever need to call! A man true to his word!
The best !
My husband and I can't begin to express how wonderful Maurice and his team were while buying and selling on Siesta Key! Maurice was there helping us through both processes and made everything so much easier than we imagined. We were always informed of every showing and any possible leads while selling . As far as the buying process, we were thrilled with the support and guidance Maurice showed us throughout the process. His expertise and outgoing personality, along with his professional attitude, makes him an outstanding agent who we would recommend to anyone thinking of selling or buying. We would happily hire Maurice again to represent us in the future. Great guy and great realtor!!
Maurice is very thorough. He pays close attention to his customer's needs and desires. He communicates in a timely manner and is extremely helpful in finding suitable real estate for his clients.
Real Estate Agent Lin Dunn has been a pleasure to work with from day one. Lin is highly knowledgeable in the real estate market, with a detailed knowledge of the Sarasota market from 20 years of experience there. Lin is super friendly and positive, he listens intently to our needs, provides valuable consultation and held our hand seeing us through all aspects of the process. Client service is paramount to me. Anytime I reached out to Lin he would quickly respond and always led us through our decision making confidently. Lin is our go to for Real Estate needs for life.
Team Dunn has been a steady supporter of The Legacy Trail for the past 3 years. They recognize the value of this important amenity for Sarasota County . Thank you so much for what you do for Friends of The Legacy Trail. Rita Miotti Volunteer Coordinator
We've sold two houses with this team. And we've bought two. We've recommended them to others who have been Justas satisfied with their kind care, their extreme thoroughness and their great knowledge of the Sarasota market. There is no reason to deal with anyone else.. Pat Withrow.
As always when I work with Maurice or Lin Dunn it is a very pleasant experience. There expertise in presenting various properties Is second to none.
Always at the top of his game. First class team.
You two are movers and shakers!!????
He was concerned, helpful, and responded in a timely manner. This is a very difficult decision for us and he has been been very empathetic to our situation.
Three months ago I met Mr. Lin Dunn from the Siesta key office of Michael Saunders & Co. It was to be my first acquisition of a home by myself at the age of 68. To say I was nervous and a little apprehensive is an understatement.but from the very start your associate Lin Dunn was the most helpful and professional real estate agent I have ever met. Mr Dunn always made me feel totally comfortable and his kindness and knowledge of the area helped me through this process beautifully. Even after finding the right condo, the help I continued to receive from Mr. Dunn was outstanding He told me from the beginning, if I needed anything to not hesitate to call him and he would be happy to help me. I can only tell you what a positive experience this has been for me. I would recommend Mr. Dunn and Michael Saunders & Co. to anyone looking for a home, condo or real estate. In closing I would like to say thanks to Lin for his incredible expertise in helping me find my new home.
Maurice was totally committed to the sale of our home. He had a formal appraisal done to make sure the house price was appropriate and advertised the listing in the Wall Street Journal and other publications. He had a glossy folder created that presented the house very well that was available to anyone who saw the property. He held numerous open houses. For every showing and for every open house he made sure the house was in perfect condition. This even involved blowing the leaves of off the driveway and working with the pool which was not caged. He contacted a painter and carpenter to improve the inside of the house. Maurice works well with people. He has a very upbeat personality. When a buyer was found, he was able to negotiate a final bid that was 27% higher than the original offer. All in all he did an excellent job.
The team of Lin and Maurice are the best!! They worked with us patiently until we found the perfect home. Then, they took care of all the necessities after the sales agreement was signed. From home inspection to final walk through, these gentlemen are thorough. Highly recommend them as they know the market and listen to their clients needs.
