About Bob Bronston

My family and I have been East Manatee County residents for thirty years.  My wife, Francine, works at McNeal Elementary School and worked for many years at Braden River Elementary.  My daughter, Amy, attended K-8 at Braden River Elementary and Braden River Middle Schools, high school at Cardinal Mooney in Sarasota, and graduated from Florida State University, where she earned degrees in Political Science and Public Relations.
 
Real estate is something of a family tradition.  My father was a custom home builder in Cincinnati, Ohio, and his wife was a REALTOR® for over forty years in both Cincinnati and Cape Coral.
 
I have a B.S. from the State University of New York in Science Education but worked most of my time as a Human Resources trainer and manager, and as a VP/General Manager of a customer service-oriented small business.  I am a member of the Sarasota Board of Realtors, Florida Association of Realtors, and the National Association of Realtors.  I serve on the Board of Directors of a condominium association and have been a past president of an HOA.  I also have served on the Sarasota Board of Realtors Ethical Grievance Committee.  I am certified in residential construction (RCC) and I am a Certified New Home Specialist (CNHS).  Additionally, I am e-Certified and have a SFR credential as a Short Sale and Foreclosure Resource.  Honesty, integrity and professionalism are extremely important to me. In fact, the highest compliment I can receive is for a past customer to refer a new customer to me for those reasons.
 
At various times I have been (or still am) an avid golfer, photographer, sailor, boater, scuba diver, fisherman and kayaker.  I also dabble in sporting clays at Lakewood Ranch's own Ancient Oak Gun Club which, even if you know nothing about shooting, is a lot of fun!  For me, no other place in America can match our corner of the world.  I'd appreciate the opportunity to share my enthusiasm for living here with you.
 
Whatever your real estate needs may be, I am here to help you.  If you are looking for an agent to "SELL" you something, well, keep looking because that's not me.  I work as a consultant, an advisor, an advocate, a marketer, etc., but I'm not a fan of pushy or flashy salespeople and I won't act as one.  I don't get listings by pretending that I can get more money than is realistically possible in the current market and that assessment is backed up with unbiased MLS information.  Buyers who work with me are always given an analysis of the property's market value before making their offer so they know they aren't overpaying and that the property will appraise for their loan.  My efforts are focused on serving your needs and I am very proud of the fact that the Five Star organization and Sarasota Magazine have recognized me, based on customer surveys, as being in the top 7% of agents in Customer Satisfaction six consecutive years in a row.
