They say "art" is creating something from nothing. Andy and his team at Douglas Elliman Real Estate found my dream home and crafted the perfect deal. I shared with Andy our ideal location, the specific building, the view, and even the desired floor—yet, nothing was on the market. What did Andy do? He proactively reached out to the owners of the units we were interested in. Just a few days later, Andy called with exciting news: he might be able to secure a deal on a special unit... a penthouse, exactly where we dreamed of living! The contracts were quickly drawn up, and the purchase process was smooth and straightforward. Andy and his realty team swi...

I never understood the importance of a professional realtor until I met Andrew A Alvarez, PA. Andrew works with Douglas-Elliman and displays a comprehensive understanding of the market, integrity in negotiations, and comprehensive customer support.

When it came time for contract preparation and closing, he was with me ...

Andy is an outstanding realtor who expertly guided us through a complex transaction with remarkable professionalism. His positive attitude made the entire process of buying our beach condo truly enjoyable. We couldn't be happier with our experience and will absolutely turn to Andy for our next Gulf Coast property.

Andy expertly sold my oceanfront condo on Fort Myers Beach, completely off-market. Our dialogue started after he identified a potential buyer from his extensive network and smoothly led us through the negotiation process. Andy skillfully managed the negotiations, providing me with consistent updates through frequent texts about the status and any issues that arose. His exceptional communication skills were evident throughout the process and were key to the successful closing of the sale. Without Andy’s expertise, this deal might not have been possible.
