We first became acquainted with Shirley and Tom through their youtube video reviewing Bargrove Estates.Prior to working with them, we were doing our own search on properties and developments because we felt we were getting poor attention and effort from our current agent. We quickly realized that Shirley and Tom provide the level of service that buyers (even out of staters) deserve and need.Since we were looking to build a home in a particular development, the process was slow but they kept constant communication with us and the property sales manager for updates. When an opportunity to purchase a completed home in that development arose, they immediately went into action. They took extraordinary steps during this period of time to make sure we were comfortable on making an offer while out of state. They made sure the seller saw our offer first and we had a signed contract within 48 hours of discussing the property. Their knowledge, attentiveness and genuine care throughout the process was above and beyond our expectations. We highly recommend Shirley and Toms services.
Tom and Shirley were a complete blessing throughout our entire home-buying experience! From our first conversations when we were toying with the idea of owning a home in sunny Florida to even today after closing Tom and Shirley have been readily available and hands-on. We were purchasing from out of state and Tom and Shirley were there every step of the way to guide us down the right path to finding our dream vacation home! They would send us up-to-date listings in our target area and when we planned to fly into town to look at properties we felt like Tom and Shirley dropped everything they had to solely focus on us! It seems like a thing of the past to get such personalized service these days but Tom and Shirley made us feel like we were their only clients! We saw a lot of homes in a short amount of time and we never felt rushed. Tom and Shirley showed us a neighborhood they thought we would like that wasn't even on our radar. We fell in love with the resort community and that is where we ended up finding our dream home! If it wasn't for Tom and Shirley's expertise and taking the time to listen to our needs and wants I don't even know if we would have found this community! Tom and Shirley knew the area we wanted to be in and knew that we wanted to feel like we were on vacation every time we were there and this community checked all of those boxes and more. We are so blessed to have the Guercio team in our corner! Once we went under contact they continued to have our best interest in mind and continued to help us every step of the way. We have nothing but the utmost respect and gratitude for the Guercio team! We are beyond blessed to have worked with Tom and Shirley for our vacation home-buying experience. If you are looking for a team that feels like family, knowledgeable about the area, and has your best interest in mind, look no further than these Florida Agents!
Our overwhelming search for a home in Florida began with YouTube videos of Tom and Shirley driving through communities within Clermont. A simple phone call to them and we discovered a friendly and accommodating couple that was understanding of our needs and interests. Within a few days Shirley and Tom gave us a list of communities to visit. We visited several communities and ultimately fell in love with the Waterbrook community! After meeting them for a short visit, they found us a home! In a matter of 6 weeks we made settlement. Tom and Shirley are amazing people with great knowledge as realtors in Florida. They certainly have gone beyond the call of duty and assisted us in our unique situation. We would consider them not just our agents, but friends!
We didnt know any real estate professionals in the Orlando metro area and wanted to build a new home. We live in Montana and were buying from thousands of miles away. We found Tom and Shirley via their YouTube channel, the Florida agents. What we saw on YouTube was exactly who they arefriendly real estate professionals with great information who are here to help in the buying process. We found a subdivision we wanted to build a home in an extremely competitive market. Tom and Shirley helped us navigate the buying process providing great information about how to successfully navigate the competitive market and in representing our interests in the sale. During the build, they visited our site and did FaceTime with us , as well as sending progress videos and photos to help us track our build. The builder sent us a few photos, but Tom and Shirley ensured we had a full regular picture of everything happening with our build. They ensured all our questions were answered along the way. They helped us locate a home inspector who did a great job, They helped us navigate a long distance closing. We have participated in a high number of real estate transactions with a variety of real estate agents over the years. Shirley and Tom top the list of agents weve worked with. We wouldnt hesitate to recommend Tom and Shirley to anyone buying real estate in the greater Orlando metro area. They are fantastic, friendly, extremely competent real estate professionals who will be in your corner through the buying/building process.
When my wife and I decided to work with Tom and Shirley we didn't imagine how important they would be in the entire process from finding a house to the last stages of the closing. Their involvement and commitment to help us were outstanding! There are several steps and bureaucracy in buying a house and it is extremely difficult to know what is the right balance when negotiating with the parties involved. However, having someone we can trust to provide us with accurate guidance becomes a game changer, significantly reducing the stress associated with the entire process. Tom and Shirley were that trusted party and I feel glad we have chosen to work with them.
From the first moment we talked to Shirley and Tom from the Florida Agents we found them to be knowledgeable and easy to work with. They understood our wants in a villa and the location we wanted to live in. They made the process enjoyable and we would highly recommend them as realtors.
We found Tom and Shirley online and reached out to them. We were buying a place in Florida from Chicago and they were so helpful! They were highly professional and extremely knowledgeable about the area! They helped us find the perfect home for our family! We are beyond pleased and highly recommend them! And on top of it, they are the nicest couple you could meet!
Tom and Shirley from the first time my wife and I meant them both its been nothing but greatness.. they are knowledgeable and nothing but helpful thought out the process. My wife and I thank God for sending Tom and Shirley our way... We had always watched their videos on YouTube and from there we knew we had to connect with them both. Its been nothing but amazing .. Thank you both for directing us and leading us to the right home for us...
Thoroughly enjoyed working with Tom and Shirley. Since we were coming from the west coast we appreciated their knowledge of the Central Florida area. We purchased a new home through them and received regular updates from them during the build process. Thanks to them for their diligent work and now we get to enjoy our new home! The Smiths
We moved from Pennsylvania to Florida. We called Shirley on a Sunday and within a hour she LITERALLY found us a lot and model based on our needs as a multigenerational family. We flew down and signed the papers within days of that initial call. Tom and Shirley were our eyes on the ground during the entire construction process of our home. Tom sent pictures and videos and updated us often. They go above and beyond what you would expect of agents. They know and see things you wouldnt know as a buyer and theyre beyond amazing to work with. When it was time for our final walkthrough, we werent walking through with our agents we were walking through with friends. If you are considering moving to Florida from out of state, hands down you MUST use Tom and Shirley! Theyre simply the BEST! Thank you for finding and helping us build our dream home. We truly are living Happily Ever After and couldnt have done it without Tom and Shirley!
I had to relocate from 1000 miles away due to a job change and did some narrowing down of areas I was interested in prior to contacting Shirley and Tom. I had a long phone call with them to talk about our wants and needs in a home, and they did a good job of listening to what our expectations were, and helped to steer things that could be a letdown (not common in the area, this versus that choices), all in a open and conversational manner. They gave me access to an online tool to look at houses and comment about them, which was helpful for me to see both what they were thinking as well as me just searching on my own a bit to learn what was truly out there and adjust my expectations. I had put comments on several properties about things I liked or disliked, and this helped steer us to the right neighborhood and house for us. No doubt in my mind is that Shirley and Tom's expertise in knowing the various neighborhoods, builders, and most importantly having relationships with the people is ultimately what helped us get our house. They are the kind people you see on the youtube videos in person. My only disappointment is that we know we won't need a realtor anytime soon as we plan to enjoy our house for a long time, and thanks to them we found it !!
Tom and Shirley are the best. So glad we found them. They were always on top of things and constantly updating us on status of home, which was great since we were purchasing from across the country. We had some 'bumps' in the road with other entities involved and other issues during the process and, if not for them, we don't know if would have gotten through. Great Agents and even more beautiful human beings! Don't hesitate to hire them! Love 'em!
Shirley and Tom are simply the BEST! If you are in the market to purchase a home they are your BEST option for Realtors. They are professional and knowledgeable- everything you could hope for. They keep communication open and up to date keeping clients informed every step of the process.
We connected with Tom & Shirley via email and phone several times to explore what we wanted to check into months before we traveled to Florida. When the time came, they were both ready, willing and able to help us explore. They work as a team, are knowledgeable, down to earth and great to work with. They really want to be sure you get what you want! Closing happened quickly and we were not able to be onsite, but they were. They did our walk through for us! We cannot say enough about what a positive experience this was and we would definitely recommend them. Thank you Tom & Shirley you made this a positive memorable experience.
Tom and Shirley are professional , Knowledgeable , Friendly . Their you Tube channel was a great help for me get to know the area not just the homes. I am moving from Omaha, Nebraska and they were my eyes and ears in florida specially after the Hurricane they drove around the city and went to my house to show me that every thing was in good shape and that put me at ease . Tom and Shirley have been beside me from the beginning till closing. Thank you much for outstanding service that you provided for me. Have a wonderful holiday season.
Tom and Shirley were/are the best business people we have ever worked with. From the start of our relationship when we contacted them by email, to the close of escrow on a new construction they provided excellent service. They went above and beyond. They researched the areas we were interested in, set up appointments for us, took us to all the areas we requested, asked leading questions to narrow down our likes and dislikes as well as size of home, and many other details to provide us with what is now our new home. They spent an entire week with us initially as we toured the gulf side of Florida. We contacted them in March 2021 and they kept in contact with us until present October 2022. They went to our property and took pictures of the progress and made videos for us. We lived over 2000 miles away and could not come out to see the progress for ourselves. We felt like they were family, keeping us abreast of the the progress and the next steps that would probably happen. The day of closing they met us at the house and assisted us with the walk through, punch list and calming of nerves. They went to the escrow office with us as being out of state we had questions about different facets of what we were signing and they explained everything to our understanding. Fantastic! they have followed up with us and checked on us to make sure we are doing okay. This above and beyond caring and their service is unmatched. They feel like good friends and really like family. I am sure our relationship will continue in the years to come. I give my highest level of praise for their knowledge of Florida, helping us to narrow down our list of 75 homes and developments and being there when we needed them. You will not find better, more caring people. They are the best human beings I have come across and rolling that into their professional work is a great asset. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We love our home and we love you!

Looking for the best Realtor? Look no further!!! Tom and Shirley are the best in the business! They are professional, punctual, honest and trustworthy. We moved from out of state and they were there to assist along the entire process. Highly recommend!
Tom and Shirley helped us find our ideal home in Central Florida. Coming from out of state we really needed someone with local knowledge, and they delivered above and beyond! They are wonderful people, were a joy to work with, and are knowledgeable of the local market. We will gladly recommend them to anyone looking for an agent in Central Florida.
Tom and Shirley were fantastic to work with! They really knew and understood what I was looking for in a home, perhaps even more than I did myself! I'd had listings I wanted to see and they took me to each home I requested, but ultimately I ended up purchasing a home I would have never thought to look at. Shirley found us the perfect home and Tom was right there with the home inspectors when they came to oversee and inform us of anything we should know.
Tom and Shirley are prompt, professional, and an absolute delight to work with! Thank you so much, we LOVE our new home!!
Shirley and Tom are patient and friendly realtors. They have pleasant personalities and they care about their customers. Unless most realtors in the industry, their business is based on personally interaction and not just cold money transaction. I would definitely recommend their services for anyone who is looking for buying or selling houses in Orlando area.
We described our perfect home to both Tom and Shirley and they delivered! They listened and helped us through the buying process making it easy and seamless. We highly recommend Tom and Shirley for your real estate needs.
Cindy And Harold Gibson, a buyer from Lake Wales, FL
We had watched Tom and Shirley's YouTube videos for months. On our way to visit family in South Florida we spent time in Clermont and met with them about what we we looking for in Florida. We went back to Georgia. They sent links to us and even walked thru a couple with us on video. Late one Sunday afternoon, they sent THE LINK to our dream home and made an appointment to walk thru with us the next morning. We made an offer, all online with Shirley and Tom's expertise, and by 6 pm we had an accepted contract. We closed in person with our awesome agents in attendance in Clermont. Tom and Shirley are purely buyers agents and will have your best interests in mind while working professionally for you. We highly recommend them.
We connected with Tom and Shirley a year before we were ready to retire and move to Florida. Since we were from the Philadelphia area we didnt know much about this area, other than Disney World. Tom and Shirley set up a call with Gina and I to go over our budget, our dream retirement home and our timeline. They immediately began sending us emails that fit our ideas. As the time got closer they began to reach out to see if we had any changes to our plans. They adapted the plans to our requests. When we got to Florida, and set up our day to meet up and begin our house hunting, we finally got to meet Tom and Shirley in person. They were more wonderful in person then on the phone, hows that possible. We hit the road and the 2nd home we looked at we were SOLD. We cant thank them enough for helping us through the process and answering our questions in a quick and professional manner. We look forward to many years of friendship from Our Florida Agents. Thanks again! Doug and Gina
Sherly and Tom are excellent friends as well helping sell our home in Orlando, caring, understanding. We recommend them for any real estate business. Thank you , Shirley and Tom.
Tom and Shirley know the Florida market including the resort/short term rental market well. Buyers from outside of Florida are well supported with information and showings. During three short days I was able to see townhomes in a number of resort communities in my preferred area near Disney World and other attractions - enough to decide on a resort community and then it was a matter of waiting for the perfect home to come on the market. Tom and Shirley use technology to support out of town buyers - including face time showings and walk throughs - all through the selection and buying process. They make a remote purchase possible - I went into the closing process well informed and prepared for a long distance closing. For those who are new to the Orlando area, their website and videos are a treasure trove of information. And even now - a year after the purchase they check in to see how things are going with my new Florida home. Friendly, knowledgeable, and reliable are all words I use to describe Tom and Shirley. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a new home in Florida.
We enjoyed working with Tom and Shirley in making our move across the country from Utah to Florida! They worked hard to find the right home for us and went the extra mile. We appreciate their friendship and efforts! They were quick to respond, and we appreciated their determination in finding the right home. We would strongly recommend this realtor team!
Buying a home 1200 miles away - never walking through it until closing - requires a team that can communicate incredibly well, utilize technology effortlessly, and build trust. Tom and Shirley NAILED this! I cannot recommend them highly enough... their thoroughness and advocacy was beyond reproach! THANK YOU TEAM! YOU ARE THE BEST!
Tom and Shirley were great to work with. They explained everything every step of the way with purchasing our home. Highly recommend them if you are looking to buy or sell your home!
Tom and Shirley were attentive. Always available to find information and answer questions. The video walk through and their descriptions were accurate. They helped us handle a difficult closing situation. I recommend them without hesitation.
Tom & Shirley have the extensive knowledge & experience it takes to really stand out among other agents. They are personable and truly go above & beyond meeting our expectations. All our questions were answered in a timely fashion. They recommended several neighborhoods based on the description we gave them. They understood the features we wanted such as a larger yard leading us to finding our perfect forever home! They are experts in negotiating with agents and thats exactly what was needed to seal the deal. Check them out on YouTube channel ....Tom & Shirley Guercio/The Florida Agents.
We were looking to relocate to a 55+ Community in Central Florida and contacted Tom & Shirley about a listing in Clermont. They were both so attentive and listen to our requirements. Shirley kept in constant contact with us and eventually it led to the Solivita 55+ Community in Poinciana. They were there the entire process without any sales pressure which we really appreciated. During the formal inspection process, Tom represented our best interest and we closed on the house September 3rd. Having dealt with numerous realtors in our previous home purchases, we were extremely pleased with their professionalism. We truly recommend this team if you are in a market for purchasing a home.
Tom and Shirleys expertise and market knowledge lead to a quick one day sale of our home! Their photographer did an absolutely amazing job with the photos and flyer which generated interest quickly. Every step of the selling process was handled professionally and accurately. They go above and beyond in making sure they answer all your questions. They truly understand the current market and how to attract the right buyer. Theyre a great and personable team to get your home sold in this fast moving market. We HIGHLY recommend using Tom and Shirley and will continue to do so.
We found Tom and Shirley on YouTube when searching for Florida home while residing in Texas. They reached out to us by phone and we hit it off instantly. Their personalities were just like ours fun & outgoing. We arranged a week together and off we went to meet them in April 2021. They showed us several retirement communities and we chose the perfect one for us. Our home was still in the building process. They took care of the details to help us get into the home. So off we went back to Texas to sell our home there. They made several videos for us to keep us updated with the building process. We sold our Texas home and moved to Florida! We closed on our new home August 2021 . We are so thankful that God brought us to Tom and Shirley. They were so professional and knowledgeable and they made the whole process fun and memorable. We are like besties now (lol). We highly recommend them to anyone who is making the move to the sunshine state. We absolutely love it here!
Tom and Shirley were fantastic, supporting us during the whole process. It had several obstacles though, mainly due that we are foreigners investing in a house in US and it was a painful learning process. Fortunately with the help of all the actors, realtors Tom and Shirley, mortgage consultant, notary etc. we could finally made the investment close to our family!
As a retiring couple from Maine looking to have a winter home in Florida, we did some initial work to find our ideal community for purchasing a property. The research lead us to view Tom and Shirley's YouTube videos. From the first time we reached out to them, they made us feel as though we were their most important clients and they quickly understood our needs and priorities. When the perfect home became available, they worked with us every step of the way, even after the sale. Although we never envisioned ourselves purchasing a home remotely, Tom and Shirley made it easier and addressed our every need and question without delay. They make a wonderful team and are as genuine as they come!
We were from NJ. We found the husband and wife team of Tom and Shirley on you tube. We knew they were going to be a good fit for us and they did not disappoint. The helped us with the understanding of the market we wanted to look in. They were responsive to our request for information and showing us the properties we were interested in. We were experienced buyers and we knew what we were looking for. They listened carefully and we were in tune with each other. They did not try to push anything on us, they acted as a trusted advisor and guided us along the way. We could not asked for a better experience from end to end.
Shirleys knowledge of real estate in central Florida is incredible! We felt more like friends then a client and Shirley would send us videos of homes we liked which was so helpful since we still was living in Massachusetts. Trust me, you will not regret your decision by choosing Shirley and Tom. They are Simply the best ! MaryAnn & Bruce
Shirley & Tom extensive knowledge and experience helped us immensely during every step of the home buying process. We found them on YouTube and chose them because they truly understood the type of area we were searching for and type of home that met our needs. Their relaxed and easy-going personalities helped ease our anxieties about a cross-country move. They were readily available to answer any of our questions along the way and kept on top of all the logistics that entail our type of move. We HIGHLY recommend using Shirley & Tom and we would not hesitate to use them again. They are a rare find in this competitive market and we are grateful to have found them.
Two words to describe Tom and Shirley, Special Agents. When we made the decision to buy in Florida, we needed more than an agent that would just send us listings. We needed agents that truly had our best interest in heart. We didnt need agents that would talk over us or rank their attentiveness on the price of the house we can purchase. Tom and Shirley made us feel we were their only clients and they gave us the confidence that they were looking for property for long lost friends. There are so much more we can say about Tom and Shirley but I dont want to loose your attention by writing a 100 page affidavit. The main point is we put our trust in our new agents and they became our SPECIAL AGENTS!!
Our first communication with Shirley was on the phone. We lived in Cincinnati, and have a son that lives in Orlando working for Disney. We had always wanted to retire to a warm climate, and we started looking online at suburbs around Orlando. We came across one of Shirleys YouTube videos, featuring a 55+ gated community, and decided to give her a call. From the first conversation, we could tell that she cared for her clients and wanted to get to know their wants and needs in order to find the home of their dreams. We were going to visit our son for a few days over the holidays, and decided to go out with Shirley and look at some real estate, just to see firsthand what the market was like. Incredibly, within 2 days, we were able to find and put an offer in on out dream retirement retreat, before flying back home! We felt like we were in capable hands as they walked us through every step of the transaction. Tom was at the home inspection, placing a FaceTime call with us so that we could see and hear what the inspector was looking at. Buying a home can be a stressful and anxiety filled experience, and we are thankful to have had a team like Shirley and Tom to take care of us!
