Sanibel Real Estate

Sanibel and Captiva's beaches are clean and oil free. Because of our distance from the spill and the presence of the loop current our beaches remain pristine.

Greetings from Sanibel Island!

Greetings and a warm welcome from Mike Badenoch. I am an exclusive buyer agent on Sanibel Island. My agency, Buyer’s Choice Realty Group, Inc. is the only Exclusive Buyer Agency on Sanibel Island. More about that below. But first, let’s talk about Sanibel real estate.

Sanibel, as well as all of southwest Florida is experiencing a downturn in real estate prices. However, because Sanibel is a “special place” we have not seen the same deep declines in prices as have other Florida communities.

Sanibel Island includes some of the most beautiful and unique environments in the world. The island’s conservation policies protect 67% of the land so that wildlife and natural habitats will be preserved in perpetuity.

Not surprisingly, the Sanibel real estate market includes some of the finest homes and condos anywhere. Sanibel residential properties typically offer a mix of elegant design and a relaxed atmosphere, while blending in with the natural beauty around them.

As a result Sanibel values have held up comparatively well in the real estate downturn. Nevertheless, it is still a buyer’s market and you can find a good deal if you know how and where to look. That’s where I can assist you.

A Real Estate Agent for the Buyer!

I am an exclusive buyer agent representing real estate buyers and investors for Sanibel Island and Captiva Island real estate. I am also an exclusive buyer agent representing buyers and investors for the Fort Myers and Cape Coral areas of southwest Florida.

As an exclusive buyer agent, I represent only buyers of real estate, never sellers. In contrast, traditional real estate agents represent the seller or provide limited representation to both the buyer and the seller. So, there is really no one advocating just for the buyer!

Buying property is an investment. The profit on this investment is made when you buy, not when you sell, so buying smart is crucial to achieving a profit on your purchase. Do not trust your investment, and future profit, to someone who does not represent you exclusively.

As a former attorney with more than twenty years of legal experience I am an expert negotiator who will work exclusively to achieve the best result for you, the buyer. As your advocate, I'm at your side, negotiating the lowest price, safeguarding your interests and managing the transaction through to closing.

A realtor on the buyer's side; it's about time!
