		<description><![CDATA[Michael Saunders &#038; Company, the leading real estate company on Florida’s Gulf Coast, announces the premier of its new web site, michaelsaunders.com.  The distinctive new site combines consumer-centric design and ease of usage with the compelling neighborhood content, market data and advanced property search capabilities that buyers and sellers need to make important decisions impacting their real estate goals.  The new site is now live at michaelsaunders.com.

“When we opened our first office 34 years ago, we did so with the commitment to deliver an outstanding real estate experience to every customer who passed through our front door,” said Michael Saunders, company founder and CEO from her headquarters in downtown Sarasota. “Times have definitely changed; with today’s “front door” very often being the home page of our web site.  The new site renews our commitment to an exceptional experience no matter which portal a customer comes through.”

Needless-to-say, re-developing the site was a labor of love involving not only our technology, marketing and management teams, but also the most nationally prominent interactive communications and web design agency in the real estate industry.  More importantly, it involved significant input from our clients, customers, and agents.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This month Michael Saunders &#038; Company celebrates its 34th  birthday—an age which Goldilocks would consider not too young, not too old; but “just right.”

With nearly three and a half decades of experience behind us, we’re old enough to have experienced several real estate cycles, wise enough to predict developing trends and changing market conditions; and nimble enough to reshape our customer service model as quickly as new challenges and opportunities mandate. ]]></description>

So to honor their good-natured scolding that this column has yet to address the recreational opportunities that exist in what they like to call the “Great Florida Outback,” today’s feature is dedicated to the sea of green that defines eastern Sarasota and Manatee Counties, mainly east of I-75.]]></description>

TPC @ Prestancia was the host of the Chrysler Cup (Senior Ryder Cup) and then the American Express Invitational, a senior tour event until 2000.
