“My wife, Dr. Eunice Vachet, DMD, and I had purchased a moderately priced, newly constructed property in a new development in Bradenton, Florida in 2015. While Eunice toiled in a dental practice, I was working
in a post-professional career position as a fitness trainer at a upscale gym in Sarasota. It was there I acquired a client, Steve Dutoit. He was like many of my clients, educated, successful – real estate
for him, and an interesting conversationalist. We had many overlapping interests to talk about, and over time we, and our spouses, became friends.
In 2019 Eunice came under recruitment by a practice located in Appleton, Wisconsin, a far cry from sunny Florida. The administrative, then interview process was much more brief than we expected. Following an
on-site in Appleton, she received an offer, which we discussed and she accepted in short order.
The big surprise was the highly abbreviated time frame for Eunice to report for work. While she prepared herself, I went into overtime. In addition to all the other logistics involved, we needed to sell our
home. Thankfully I had what I knew was a great realtor, from a highly regarded firm, at my fingertips. I called Steve, explained our situation and the time pressure. We met, he surveyed the property, valued
it and immediately had it listed.
Within less than one month, I had located and arranged a new home in Wisconsin, temporary housing for Eunice, and had interviewed and selected a mover. Steve was by my side through the process as he brought
in potential buyers, the last one of which committed to our asking price. Three days after the movers came, and one day after the auto transport had come and gone, again with Steve’s help, I signed the closing
papers, packed our puppy into our Mercedes and left for a three-day scenic drive to Appleton. We arrived on Christmas Eve.
If I would not have had Steve Dutoit from Keller Williams Realty in Sarasota, my friend and our realtor at my side, helping me every step of the way, this story would no doubt not have been possible. It is with
great pleasure that I recommend him to you. Out of multiple corporate moves, including two coast to coast, as complicated as all this sounds, it was the easiest I’ve ever experienced.”
