Realtor

A native Floridian with a wealth of market knowledge, I bring a fresh perspective and proven results to every real estate experience. A specialist in new construction and waterfront properties from Anna Maria to Boca Grande, I enjoy working with first-time buyers and seasoned sellers alike.

I graduated from the University of Florida and went on to work in marketing and event management, developing a sophisticated skillset that translated perfectly to the real estate business. Since 2014, I have closed over $34M in sales volume serving clients throughout Sarasota and Manatee counties including Anna Maria Island (Anna Maria, Holmes Beach, and Bradenton Beach), Bradenton, Palmetto, Parrish, Lakewood Ranch, Sarasota, and Longboat Key at price ranges from $120,000 to $3M.

A rising star at Michael Saunders & Company's St. Armands Circle office, I was selected as an honoree for the National Association of Realtor's Realtor Magazine’s “30 under 30” in 2016. In 2018, I transitioned my business to Coldwell Banker Residential Real Estate. Based out of the company's prestigious and top-ranked Longboat Key office, I am excited to continue serving my customers with the enhanced support of Coldwell Banker's national and local strength in advertising, marketing, referrals, and technology.

I proactively support the local community through organizations including the Junior League of Sarasota, Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Suncoast, and Designing Daughters. I live on Longboat Key with my husband and two children. Outside of real estate, I enjoy traveling, boating, and playing tennis.

As an agent who's an expert in this local area, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise about buying and selling real estate here. It's not the same everywhere, so you need someone you can trust for up-to-date information. I am eager to serve you. Here are some of the things I can do for you:

Find Your Next Home
You need someone who knows this area inside and out! I can work with you to find the right home at the right price for you, including all the neighborhood amenities that matter - not to mention the essential criteria you have for your ideal home

Sell a Home
When it's time to move, you need someone who will advertise your home, show to prospective buyers, negotiate the purchase contract, arrange financing, oversee the inspections, handle all necessary paperwork and supervise the closing. I can take care of everything you need, from start to close.

Consult on Home Selling Tactics
Oftentimes buyers don't visualize living in your home the way you do. I can make your home attractive to its ideal audience - which can help you get top dollar. Things like staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that's sold fast.

-Kim Baker, Client

"Absolutely a pleasure to work with. Extremely responsive and friendly."

-Aaron Boehm - JRAC Realty, Colleague

"Kelly took our listing after another well-known broker from another company could not produce an offer while having this listing for a full year. To be fair, in this timeframe the pandemic happened but the real estate market remained hot everywhere. Kelly produced a number of showings right away and was able to present an offer within two weeks of listing and we were able to close the sale a month after that. And by the way, our home sold for more than the asking price. Thank you Kelly!"

-Joseph & Denise, Client

"Kelly is a top notch Realtor! She's tenacious, intelligent and has a great personality. I would refer her without hesitation to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Sarasota/Longboat Key area!"

-Toni Mikel, Colleague

"I closed a deal where Ms. Baldwin was the real estate agent and I was impressed with her service. She was actively involved throughout the process and ensured we had a smooth closing."

-Felix Montanez, Other

"Extraordinary realtor! We started by looking at resales, moved to purchase a lot and find a builder, needed a furnished rental while the house was being built, because of construction delays decided to also purchase a condo rather than continue renting while the house was being built. Every step of the way Kelly shephered our search, helped us with difficult issues and was always available for consultation and advice. Kelly is exceptional! I hope we will not move again, but if we do we are confident Kelly will be there to guide the transaction. She is the best!"

-Julie, Client

"Kelly listened to our housing needs up front. Very quickly she helped us locate and purchase an excellent property for my family. Thank you, Kelly!"

-Thomas S Carter, Client

"Kelly has become more than just a realtor to my family, she has become a friend. My family relocated from Miami, FL and Kelly helped us every step of the way. We were given short notification from my husband's job that we had to move. Kelly immediately took initiative and helped us to find the house of our dreams as well as a rental until the house we wanted was ready. In addition to helping us find a house, Kelly also helped me find a doctor since I was 8 months pregnant. The doctor ended up being a great referral as I am very satisfied with my new doctor. Kelly also helped me find a reliable babysitter for my 2 year old, the list goes on and on for what Kelly has helped us with. I highly recommend Kelly, she is very reliable, helpful, and professional. She also knows the area very well which was very helpful for the process. "

"Kelly is the best realtor in Sarasota! She has represented our family through several complicated real estate transactions over the last couple of years, one of which closed on an exceptionally tight timeline.

We are thankful for her guidance, persistence and patience on our behalf. Beyond being a wonderful person, she is a true professional and a well respected agent in the real estate community. We are excited to work with her again in the future. "

-Worth & Erin G., Client

"Kelly has helped more than one person in my family find a home and she is amazing. I told her exactly what I was looking for and she was very receptive. She took everything I said into account when picking homes to show me. While we were out looking at homes it was obvious she was very familiar with the area which was great because I was moving from out of state. I would definitely contact Kelly again if I had to move."

-Laura Peppard, Client

"Kelly is a pleasure to work with- smart and resourceful. She worked with us over a period of time as we changed our ideas of what we were looking for. She kept on top of the market and was able to connect us with a seller just as their condo was going on the market. A year later, we are very happy with our purchase."

-jackie potter, Client
