We came to Lakewood Ranch/Sarasota for vacation, fell in love with the area and decided to move here. We found Explore Lakewood Ranch Advisors, and they helped us sort out the myriad of options! It was overwhelming, but they made this move so much easier than any other move we’ve made in 35 years of marriage!
