Without a doubt, the best decision we made on relocating wants to team up with the Pro Gulf properties. We have never been involved with such a knowledgeable, professional, hard-working team, and for a plus, we’re so friendly and fun to work with! I am, Jeff, and Lorrie were available to us through phone calls, texts, and emails from early morning to late at night. From the first meeting about selling our home to the final closing day, we were in constant contact. We never had to worry about what came next because of this relationship. There was never a question to silly or unknowledgeable to ask and there was always an answer ready. What an awesome team we now have as good friends! We only wish there was a way to rate more than five stars!
Our house had the added pressure of being sold during the aftermath and cleanup of Hurricane Ian. While the most other people could get done quickly was to get blue tarps on their roofs, Pro Gulf had connections with contractors that came to our house to give estimates and repair damages. If you’ve never lived through something like this, you have no idea how valuable those kinds of connections are. We only wish there was a way to rate more than five stars!
We will never make a real estate deal in the Cape Coral or Fort Myers area without Pro Gulf!

I was referred to Ann Stone by a travel agent friend and my wife and I are very pleased that we received this referral. We were seeking a SW Florida second home and through Ann Stone and her team we were able to secure a wonderful home in Cape Coral. Ann, Jeff Mueller, and Lorrie Pitkin have guided us every step of the way. We needed a great deal of help since we are out of state, out of the real estate market for many years, and not intimately familiar with the area. We were successful in a very condensed timeframe of a couple of months thanks to them. Besides being experts in residential real estate and the local home market they are all very nice people too which we truly appreciated. Buying a home is a stressful experience and they all made it a much easier process. We will continue to rely on Ann, Jeff, and Lorrie for future real estate needs as well as local information and resources. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Ann is the type of individual one rarely gets to work with. She is not only very knowledgeable but also professional, patient, highly responsive and a pure delight to work with. We not only purchased our home with Ann’s help, but we had rented a home through their business for 3 years in a row. Ann is top notch!!!!

Our home search in Cape Coral was stressful for many reasons - COVID chief among them. Ann and her team (especially Jeff & Lorrie) helped us every step of the way. We visited the area twice on vacations and Ann set up appointments for us to learn more about neighborhoods and learn about Florida housing. She has tremendous insight into the rapidly changing market. She helped us understand the finer points of which investment was best for us (we ended up with a fantastic canal home) - but also looked into several communities. Ann kept telling us "I will not let you make a mistake!" And she was true to her word. Due to COVID, Ann arranged a zoom tour of the home we eventually bought. She checked out every single detail and made sure everything hit the mark for us. Her attention to detail (especially analyzing the financial pros & cons of each property we considered) is well beyond impressive. Her knowledge of this market is simply remarkable. I would highly recommend Ann Stone and the Pro-Gulf team. Our recommendation is heartful, as she has also become a family friend. I would also add that Ann is extremely well connected in this community, which has made our move much easier - schools, service providers and so much more.

During the past year we had been considering purchasing a vacation home in Cape Corel. When we arrived this pass February to get some needed sun, we realized we needed a qualified realtor in the area. After reading several reviews we landed on Pro-Golf Properties. Ann, Jeff, and Lorrie have worked with customers who lived outside the state and knew the challenges that came with purchasing a second home while having limited time in the area to complete the process. Throughout the process they guided us on the needed steps to purchase the home that filled out dreams. Several times we needed access to the property, so they made sure to be there to allow us entry. Also, at the beginning of the process, they provided us with a “What you need to know” booklet with very valuable information from the purchasing process, to Homesteading, to the various wildlife to what to expect while staying in Cape Coral. The booklet will be a very valuable piece of information to keep and have at hand. So, if you are looking for someone to provide you with the full spectrum of information and abilities, we highly recommend the group at Pro-Gulf Properties.

After vacationing throughout south Florida for the past 30 years, my wife and I finally settled on Cape Coral as a destination for our longer term vacation plans. I know it may sound like we are relatives, but I assure you we are not (but we feel like we are after our amazing experiences with Ann, Jeff, Lorrie and Pia at Pro-Gulf!) We initially contacted Ann after seeing her associated with a property that was interesting. After our first conversation, we were hooked! Her initial phone call with us was nearly 40 minutes in length. She was so unbelievably thorough, professional and genuine that we truly felt we could work with her throughout the property search process. We went on to meet, and work with, the entire staff of this unique office. Our requests have always been met with a can-do attitude and they have all exceeded our expectations by miles. Ann is the real deal, and she is complemented by everyone at Pro-Gulf! Perhaps you can find a Realtor that is close to Ann, but I don't believe you could find one better!

For anyone in the market to buy or sell a home in SW Florida, Pro-Gulf Properties is the only choice! My husband and I were relocating from Iowa and we were somewhat hesitant about buying a house long-distance. From the initial contact, to well after closing, the trio at Pro-Gulf Properties, Ann Stone, Jeff Mueller, and Lorrie Pitkin, demonstrated excellent client focus and service, superior market knowledge, an amazing work ethic, and genuine personal and professional integrity. Lorrie Pitkin provided us with personal attention and service that exceeded our expectations. From our very first phone call on a late Saturday afternoon that lasted an hour, she took diligent notes regarding our specific needs. There is nothing that escapes Lorrie’s attention when it comes to providing information about the SW Florida area. She worked tirelessly for us, including evenings and weekends, to ensure that our needs were met, that our questions were answered, and that our anxieties were eased. Because of her engaging personality, we felt comfortable with Lorrie from the very beginning. Jeff Mueller knows the SW Florida area well. His impressive market knowledge and high level of integrity was greatly appreciated. He was very honest about pointing out any concerns when showing us different properties. For being unfamiliar with the area, my husband and I relied on Jeff’s instincts and attention to details to find the perfect home for us. Ann Stone is a master with contract negotiations. She was highly attentive to our needs and she came up with a deal that worked well for us and made the seller happy as well. She was well-versed in all aspects of the real estate business and did an amazing job of explaining the complexities of the statistics and numbers end of buying property. Her keen business sense made us feel confident in putting an offer on the house we fell in love with. Pro-Gulf Properties went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction and we always felt like we were the only ones they were dealing with, although we know that was not the case by any means. It says a lot about a company when you can walk away in the end feeling as if you have made three new friends in the process. THANK YOU LORRIE, ANN, and JEFF!!!

Ann Stone and the entire team at Pro-Gulf Properties are head and shoulders above any Realtor we’ve ever worked with. My husband and I have owned several homes and investment properties and have never came across an agent like Ann Stone with the knowledge, expertise and creative insight to “think outside the box” to solve all your real estate needs. We moved to SW Florida just over a year ago and purchased a home utilizing the services of Pro-Gulf Properties but also had two income-producing properties we had to divest from in our home State of Minnesota. Ann suggested that we participate in an IRS 1031 exchange whereas we could defer our capital gain obligations from the sale of these properties. With Ann’s professional guidance we rolled over the proceeds from the sale into a seasonal Cape Coral rental home and limited our tax liability. Furthermore, the vacation rental management division of her company provided us with seasonal tenants even before we closed on the transaction! This makes Ann and her company truly a “one stop shop”. If you are buying, selling or renting real estate in SW Florida Please do yourself a favor and engage the services of Ann Stone and her team at Pro-Gulf Properties. Mentioning team, Ann’s assistant, Lorrie Pitkin, is the most personable and professional individual (in any industry) that I’ve ever met. Their services are highly recommended!

Ann and her team were great to work with. Ann is very experienced, responsive and caring. We were very demanding clients and she handled us with ease. She always made time for us and made sure to answer all of our concerns. When she listed our house, she made sure to market it in every way possible. We were always kept up to date with all aspects of selling our home. Ann was always easy to contact if we had a question or problem When hurricane Irma came thru, Ann and Jeff were instrumental in helping to find contractors to do the repairs that were needed. Since we were 1000 miles away, Ann and her team stepped in and took care of everything. Our house had been on the market for 6 months prior to us contacting Ann and her team. They listened to our experience with the other realtor and made suggestions why the house hadn't received offers. They offered solutions and after being on the market for 4 days, our house sold for the asking price. Ann and team did a fantastic job of developing the plan for selling our home. Definitely thinking outside the box! They never gave up and went over and above what was expected. If we ever want another property in Southwest Florida, Ann will be the first one we call. If someone asks us to recommend a realtor, Ann will be the one and only we would recommend. She is our realtor for life!

TRUE PASSION! PASSION is seldom seen in this day and age, yet with Ann Stone and her team at Pro-Gulf -- passion abounds. They truly are unique! They exhibited a great passion for taking care of us, and for making sure we didn’t “settle for” but rather got what we really wanted -- and they walked with us through every step of the real estate process. We found them to be very professional, caring, patient and personable. It is apparent that they love what they do -- again, it appears to be a passion for them, not just a career. Our purchase was sight unseen, yet because the Pro-Gulf Team “showed” us every aspect from a first tour, through inspection, to closing, and beyond, it was as if we had been there all along. Due to their incredible communication skills, and their handling all they did, almost as if they were buying the property themselves, we got the perfect place for us. Responses to emails and phone calls were quick and detailed. Ann designed a timeline that made this one of the easiest transactions we have ever had. Every step of the way, we knew exactly what to do, when, and how to go about it. Additionally, Ann and Lorrie worked tirelessly to help us effect everything we wanted to have done before closing so that when we walked into our new home, there would be nothing to do but settle-in and enjoy. THEY made sure it all happened! We were astounded by their boundless energy and personal desire to see that our wishes were fulfilled, completely. We highly recommend that you call Pro-Gulf when you need a team you can trust to make your entire real estate endeavor ALL ABOUT YOU. bought a home 9/2017
