Testimonials

I have known Sean for many years and he is a master at his craft. He is also a community leader in Lakewood Ranch, Sarasota and Manatee as you can see by his many awards. On a personal note he and his father have been ringing the bell for the Salvation Army with me and my family for several years. I highly recommend Sean and his team for your commercial real estate needs.

Years ago, my father bought an apartment building from Sean. Over the years, Sean stayed in touch—not out of obligation, but because he truly understands the value of relationships. He would occasionally call and leave voicemails for my dad, and it was always clear that he genuinely cared. These weren’t just sales calls—they were personal and thoughtful.

When my father was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, my sister and I were suddenly thrown into a whirlwind of responsibilities, trying to get everything in order. We had a property manager at the time who, unfortunately, was not acting in our best interest. I found myself overwhelmed, trying to untangle the mess that had been left behind.

Then I had a moment of clarity: it was time to stop stressing over the property and focus on what really mattered—being there for my dad.

That’s when I reached out to Sean.

He immediately sprung into action and went above and beyond to help. Despite some challenges with the deal, Sean never backed down. He even connected me with an outstanding attorney who guided us through the process with professionalism and care.

I’m incredibly grateful to Sean and his family—not just for helping us with the property, but for being a steady, trustworthy presence during one of the most difficult times in our lives. It has been a few years and he still follows up with us.

‘Sean was the first Sarasota broker I met when I moved here 8 years ago. Since day one, I’ve always appreciated his style: relationship-driven and low key.

So, I trusted our relationship when I bid on one of his deals, and it turned out to be one of our best properties, I’m grateful for the relationship and friendship.

I look forward to using Sean and Dreznin Pappas Commercial Real Estate, LLC to being of service to Insula in the future!’

Sean Dreznin has been wonderful to work with. As an investor, I have work with Sean on the buying and selling end. I have nothing but great things to say about him. He is knowledgeable, smart, sharp, pays attention to detail and most importantly honest and easy to work with. I look forward to working with him on deals to come.

We just wanted to thank Sean Dreznin again for the great job he did selling this property for us. From marketing, to showings, to negotiations on three different contracts, to resolving issues that inevitably come up in real estate transactions during the due diligence and closing process – you did it all and we could not have asked you to do it any better. You were diligent, persistent, intelligent, and caring and we were extremely impressed. Given that we are in the commercial real estate business and deal with all calibers of real estate professionals daily, we would rank you as one of the best we have dealt with, and we don’t impress easily!

We are thrilled with the results of your efforts and the amount of activity and proposals generated.One piece of information I wanted to pass along that we feel could be a great benefit for you and your future clients.

My family was originally unsure about what direction we wanted to go, in regards to which person and organization would handle the sale of our assets. There was some dissension early on as some of our family wanted to use a “large, national” firm and believed in their marketing reach and efficient process. You not only achieved all of the efficiency of marketing and generating proposals but your personal touch and sound guidance was a glaring difference that set you apart from all others. Meeting us numerous times on the properties, stopping by the property when we were out of town, providing vendors, market data, and valuable information was above and beyond our experiences with larger companies.

On the flip side your constant communication and navigating hundreds of interested investors was a breath of fresh air. We are grateful for our decision to work with you and elated to provide a testimonial in hopes others will follow in our footsteps and build a relationship with you as well.
