Janet and Steve Walter were wonderful to work with and helped us find the property of our dreams! We are from Ohio and were in the market for a condo in the Sarasota area. We found the Walters through their website and they showed us multiple properties on our visit. We didn't find the right place, but they remembered a beautiful unit which had previously been on the market. They inquired with the previous sales agent and learned that the unit was about to be put back on the market. We were able to view this spectacular three bedroom oceanfront condo and purchased it off market. Without their close connection to the area, I do not believe it would've been possible for us to have access to this beautiful place. Once the contract was signed, they were incredibly efficient in helping acquire all of the necessary condo documents. They are also able to put us in touch with an excellent local real estate attorney and made the buying process as seamless as possible. Highly recommend!
Janet and Steve were great! They were always quick to respond to all our questions. They also always kept us up to date on the market.

Steve & Janet Walter are extremely knowledgeable in waterfront real estate. They are tuned into the Sarasota market. On top of that, they are a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend them.
Bought and sold 6 homes/condos in past ~25 years and had the BEST experience working with Steve and Janet. They know the market and have a friendly, low pressure yet entirely professional style. Highly recommended!
Janet & Steve were so wonderful to work with on the recent purchase of our vacation home. They both went above and beyond to ensure the process went smoothly from start to finish since we weren’t local. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone and I look forward to seeing them around the neighborhood!
To Whom It May Concern,
It is my genuine pleasure to recommend The Walter Group Luxury Real Estate for all of your real estate needs. While many know them for their outstanding work in buying and selling properties, I’ve had the privilege of working with Steve and Janet from a different perspective — as one of their subcontractors.
From our very first project together, I was impressed by their attention to detail, their professionalism, and, most importantly, the care and respect they show to every client. That same respect extends to everyone they work with, creating a collaborative and trustworthy environment that makes achieving real estate goals not only possible but enjoyable.
I am proud to be part of their extended team and can say with complete confidence that Steve and Janet embody integrity, excellence, and a true commitment to their clients. I cannot recommend them more highly.
Sincerely,
Mark S. Saba

This is the 11th home we have purchased and we have never had better service in purchasing a home. We feel grateful that a few years back we met Janet & Steve at an open house which lead to, a couple years later, this purchase on Longboat Key. And their support continues post close with helpful insights about living on Longboat Key and leads to the various trades, ranging from insurance to HVAC, that we will need to engage. Easy to understand why they have the respect of the community!
Easy and great transaction!! Thanks again!!
We’ve completed several purchases with Steve and Janet Walter and they are a great team.
They are creative, agressive, and well informed with great attention to detail. They are excellent communicators and very pleasant to work with. We would highly recommend Team Walter for your next sale or purchase! Todd and Libby Rieke

Steve and Janet made our LBK condo purchase so simple and buyer friendly. They brought condos to us that were "off our radar" and we actually ended up buying one we had not been looking at online. Steve and Janet also helped us with much of the groundwork for the closing as we completed the purchase remotely from a few states away. Their assistance was invaluable. They are great people that we enjoyed working with.
Our friends highly recommended the Walter Group after their great experience buying a condo on Lido Key.
We chatted about what our needs were in a waterfront vacation home. When we came to town to meet them and look at a few properties, they took us house hunting by BOAT! Not only was that fun, it really enabled us to experience the lifestyle we were looking for.
They have lived on Longboat Key for over 25 years and REALLY know the area and market. They were able to steer us to our best neighborhood after listening to what we liked/disliked about the properties we saw.
We found a home we loved in the neighborhood that was not on the market. They made that home happen for us. Who does that? Janet and Steve Walter do . . . They go above and beyond to help their clients. We are so grateful in every way they helped us. Their say/do ratio is 100%.
I would HIGHLY recommend them to everyone. Not only will you have a great real estate experience, you will have two new dear friends.

Made the entire process a pleasure in even the most difficult of times!
Steve and Janet make a great team. Their market knowledge of Longboat key was very beneficial. They we’re very helpful every step of the purchase process and would highly recommend to others looking to buy on Longboat key/ surrounding area!
Janet and Steve Walter promise concierge service and deliver. They are professional, keep their clients informed at all times, deliver results, and go the extra mile to do so.
Janet and Steve are by far the best realtors we have ever worked with and we would not have been able to secure our dream home on LBK without them.
From our initial contact all the way through to closing they were professional, extremely knowledgeable, quick to act and super responsive to all of our questions…a dream team to work with!

Steve and Janet are the best in the business! True GEMS of Longboat Key. With the Walter Group, you'll find real estate professionals with the warmth of a life-long friend. Throughout our transaction Janet and Steve were responsive to our questions, flexible with opening the home for extra visits and openly shared all their knowledge about the surrounding neighborhood. 100% would work with again and highly recommend! Thank you!
Janet and Steve were so incredibly helpful on our quest for a condominium on longboat key. They taught us the different areas, positives and negatives to each condominium building, each floor etc.. We are so much more informed now as we narrow down options and continue to work together. Thank you!
