What do Clients Say?
Knowledgeable, Responsive, Direct, Professional, and Fun. She knows her craft! Sam sold us a multi million dollar condo in 2019 and then, when our needs changed, she resold it for us in 2021. In both cases her advice was dead on.

I have used the services of Samantha Kasprzyk-Benge many times and am astounded how she always gets the deal. She is extremely friendly using her profound knowledge as a Realtor in a very professional style and always places the customer's wishes and desires up front in her dealings. She goes the extra mile to make sure that I as a client know where the project stands, what has to be done, what is being done and when it can be expected to close. Of course there are a lot of forms that have to be filled out when buying or selling a property. Samantha always had the right forms ready for us pertaining to "our" project, and after an explanation as to what were, we just had to sign. and that was taken care of without any stress or hassle whatsoever! That made the whole experience a lot easier and in fact, pleasant for us. The whole process was so fluid and was handled in a very professional manner that I wouldn't hesitate to use Samantha's services again and again. I can highly recommend Samantha Kasprzyk-Benge when buying or selling properties. She knows her stuff!

The first communication we had with Samantha was via the internet over ten years ago. We were looking for a vacation home in Sarasota. She responded immediately and picked up on what we were looking for. Within a weekend she took us around to homes and we purchased one. She helped out with recommendations for a mortgage broker, which we used. We were so impressed with her knowledge and work ethic we recommended her to friends who also used her to purchase a home. A few months ago we decided to upgrade to a larger home. There was no one else we would let handle this decision except Samantha. Again she helped with the mortgage, lawyers, moving company and the selling of our home which took less than a week. We moved into our new home two months ago.

Samantha was very responsive to all of our needs. She presented many properties that were for sale in Siesta Key and was there to show us the one's we were interested in. Once we decided on a condo in Siesta Breakers, she provided us with comp numbers and then was very helpful with the negotiations and closing. Samantha is very professional and was there personally through every step of the process. I would and have recommended her to friends and family. You will not be disappointed!

We didn't know Samantha prior to working with her but she came highly recommended by a trusted friend. From the moment we met, my husband and I were very impressed with her knowledge of the area and trade expertise. Samantha made us feel like her priority from beginning to close. She was always in touch and responded to our calls, texts & emails promptly. During the negotiation period she was spot on and a great advocate for us. Hands down, working with Samantha was the best decision we made as part of our moving process.
