Raymond Orsuto from Gilbo Realty was our agent for our new home in Florida. We purchased the home sight unseen, and he was extremely helpful in showing us videos and pictures of the home and working with us long distance during the process. The whole process worked well, and we appreciated his due diligence and advice throughout the process. We were attracted to Gilbo from their social media videos and sound advice on the real estate markets and areas throughout the Villages. We highly recommend going with Gilbo for your next home purchase in the area. Ask for Raymond!

Raymond Orsuto found us the home of our dreams. During our first discussion he understood the community we were looking to relocate to, the type of house we wanted and our budget. He delivered with a “home run” home. Thanks Ray !

Ray was a great Realtor... Patient , knowledgeable and just a good guy. Fun to work with.

We discovered Gilbo Realty through their informative YouTube videos and the incredibly easy site Mark Gilbo created for home searches in The Villages and Ocala area. We met Raymond during our vacation to FL. He spent 5 days with us showing us tons of homes in and around The Villages and Ocala. We are difficult buyers (very picky engineer and a number crunching data analyst), but Raymond hung in there with us. He got to know exactly what we wanted because he paid attention and listened. The more we got to know him the more we trusted him. He is an agent with integrity! We did not find any house in those 5 days, but after we got back home a house came on to the market that seemed great. Raymond offered to go through the house and video everything for us. We peppered him with questions, and with each response our confidence grew. He already knew and had checked out the things that were important to us. Through his guidance we put in a bid. The process was so smooth. Raymond made sure all the inspections were done within a few days, the price was negotiated, and yes, 3 weeks later we bought a house sight unseen and we couldn't be happier. This home is exactly what we were looking for. We pinch ourselves every day. There's no way this could have been done without Raymond's expertise, connections and advice. We truly put all our trust in him. Raymond is dedicated to doing his best for his clients. He always answers the phone, he gets answers quickly, he is intuitive and thinks ahead, and he's got the connections to get things done quickly. Buying a home is one of the most stressful events in your life and we never would have done this if we hadn't met Raymond. If you're looking to buy in central FL (OTOW, Del Webb, The Villages), then Gilbo Realty is your team. Mark's videos are incredibly informative, and his website is best bar none! If you are a serious buyer and looking to buy in this area, then ask for Raymond Orsuto. He'll absolutely put your interests first, and you'll be amazed how a good agent will make this process an enjoyable, exciting and stress-free event.

Raymond Orsuto from Gilbo Realty is an amazing realtor!!! Raymond worked with us for over a year - never pushy, but always checking in on us and asking if we needed anything! He spent lots of time talking to us - not exclusively by email or text like many realtors do now, but by phone. He called and was generous with his time. He got to know what we were looking for, found some great deals for us to look at, took us around to see them, and even though we passed on some that he felt would’ve been perfect for us, he never pushed nor made us feel unheard! He kept plugging along. Even when we told him we wanted a new home and found a community we liked that he really didn’t know about, he made it a point to learn about it and investigate. He ended up realizing that On Top of the World had some well built homes and good deals and it was a great area for people like us who had looked and looked and spent time searching in The Villages and decided it was not a place for us. He worked with our new sales consultant and didn’t mind coming along to help us negotiate. My husband was in the hospital for our closing date and he came to be with me and helped me through our final walk through. I always felt he had my back. The closing process went smoothly as our closing agent went to the hospital to get my husband’s signature and Raymond accompanied me to the office. He made what could have been a stressful process more comforting! We highly recommend Raymond and he is now not only our realtor but a friend! You’re welcome Ray and Mark for introducing you to OTOW!!!!! My husband and I joke that we should get some commission for that!! Thank you Raymond - you are top notch!!

Tracy was an Awesome agent….Professional and Informed but friendly and assuring which was important to me….Always returning calls and keeping in touch kept the process moving. I highly recommend her!

Steve Bedell was professional, thorough and polite in every way while showing us properties and being there for the whole process, right through closing.

Gilbo Realty (Nicole) are the best. They went the extra mile especially since we were out of state. They knew what we were looking for and their knowledge and expertise are outstanding. I would recommend Gilbo Realty to anyone who needs a trusted realtor.

Tracy Alder with Gilbo Realty was the perfect Realtor for us. She is knowledgeable and professional. Her response time was spot on, day and night. She made the buying of a second home easy. Thank you Tracy and we really appreciate you.

Let’s start with my wife and I started watching Gilbo Realty on YouTube for about 3 months. I decided to call and we were connected with Sandy McAllister. The process and professionalism she exhibited through this entire process truly exceeded our expectations let me explain. She went and visited two houses for us all by video because we were in Tennessee. We made our decision and she really has made this one of the easiest real estate transactions for us ( we have purchased 8 houses in the past) . Truly recommend Sandy and Gilbo Realty.

We were looking to move to the Villages and watching Mark Gilbo's videos. We filled out a form and set up an appointment and his sister Amie called us. She was really nice and informative. She gave us Tracy Alderman as our Realtor, Tracy is fantastic. She has the best communication! I was always able to get a hold of her. We bought our house site unseen. Which is very unnerving. She went to the house and made a video for us. We had to move fast so she set up the inspector over a weekend. When we had an issue with our house that we were selling in Nevada. Tracy called our Nevada Realtor to see what was happening and put us at ease. She was such a big help!!! We have sold many houses through the years and Tracy by far has been the best!! The whole Gilbo team is excellent and we always felt like we were in great hands!
