We Know Buying Out of Town Can Be Stressful—We’re Here to Help

Our Process: Virtual Tours and Curated Shortlists
Initial Consultation
Our process begins with a detailed consultation where we take the time to understand your unique preferences, lifestyle, and specific needs. Whether you’re looking for a waterfront property, a home close to local amenities, or a private retreat with luxurious features, we listen carefully to your desires. This allows us to tailor our services and find homes that perfectly align with what you’re looking for, ensuring that we only present properties that fit your vision.
Personalized Shortlist of Real Estate
Based on your preferences, we create a carefully curated shortlist of homes that meet your specific criteria. This personalized approach saves you time by focusing only on properties that align with your lifestyle, budget, and long-term goals. Our in-depth knowledge of the Longboat Key, Bird Key, and Lido Key markets ensures that each home on your list is a perfect match, setting you up for success in finding your dream property.
Virtual Tours, 3D Walkthroughs
To accommodate your busy schedule and the challenges of being out of town, we provide detailed video tours, 3D walkthroughs, and real-time virtual showings. These tools allow you to explore each property in depth from the comfort of your current location, offering you a comprehensive understanding of the homes without the need for frequent trips. This virtual experience helps you confidently evaluate each property and narrow down your options with ease.
In-person showings
When you’re ready to visit in person, we make sure that your time is used efficiently by arranging showings for only the best-matched homes. By narrowing down the list to the top properties, we ensure that your time in town is spent focusing on homes that align with your preferences. This streamlined process maximizes your visit, allowing you to make the most of your time and concentrate on finding the perfect home.

J Merlino
"We engaged Walter Group Real Estate (Janet Walter and Steve Walter) to market our Positano Longboat Key condo. We were impressed by their structured business-like approach and digital capabilities. As busy professionals with demanding work schedules in our home (Cleveland, Ohio), we knew we’d need to rely on our to-be selected agents to handle a lot of the details. In addition to their property marketing work, Janet and Steve coordinated staging, photography, showings, contract negotiations, and helped us close the sale of our $5mm condo in 10-days – within 2-months of listing. We highly recommend Walter Group real Estate to anyone looking for professional Real Estate Agents on Longboat Key. Could not have imagined using anyone else."
