LUXURY COLLECT ION S PECIA LISTS Linda: 727-224-8952 | Judy: 727-741-1242 lalexander2224@yahoo.com | jshank1074@yahoo.com tampabayrealtyteam.com Having been representing buyers and sellers in the luxury real estate market since 1988, the Alexander & Shank Team has the experience to conquer it all! Linda Alexander & Judy Shank met when Linda’s husband, who is a luxury home builder, was building Judy and her husband’s home! They immediately clicked and it was the start of a beautiful friendship and an incredibly successful business relationship. These two women are hardworking, passionate, trustworthy, and problem solvers! Luxury real estate comes with its own unique challenges. It takes a skilled agent to identify the right properties for their individual clients, as well as negotiate with sellers who are looking for top dollar. Additionally, luxury real estate agents must be able to look ahead to projected trends in order to properly advise their clients on potential investments and help secure the best possible deal. The Alexander & Shank Team have the knowledge and the experience to guide their clients through this unique process in a smooth and also memorable way! Some advice that Linda & Judy like to present to their luxury buyers is that most importantly…You should love where you live! You can always make changes to a home but you can never change the location. When selling your luxury

property it’s important to prepare your home like a model home for the photo shoot and for showings while also making sure the home has exceptional curb appeal. Luxury homes are buyer specific and since the buyer can generally afford what they want selling a luxury home can take some time. Patience is key! The Alexander & Shank team primarily serves north Pinellas County, they have been living and working in this area for years and know the community in depth. While this is their main area of focus, they do serve the entire Tampa Bay area. They have sold waterfront, golf front, equestrian, resale, and new construction luxury homes. Their highest price sale was in 2020 where they represented the buyer in the purchase of a $5,750,000 immaculate waterfront home overlooking the Gulf of Mexico on Redington Shores. Linda & Judy know the importance of luxury marketing and have many unique strategies! The tools provided by Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Florida Properties Group to market listings and the support from the marketing team, broker, and owners set them apart from the competition. Relationships are paramount in this industry so partnering with a brokerage where the relationships are valued is a must for the Alexander & Shank Team.
