About Tom Battisto
After leaving the cold and snowy Lehigh Valley in PA, (good move!) I found a new career as a Full-Service Realtor since 2004 and Broker Associate since 2005, serving the Greater Venice Area, including Englewood, North Port, Nokomis, Osprey, and southern Sarasota. I specialize in Golf Course Communities, Gulf front living, and condos in all price ranges. I will help you find your ideal property, and assist you throughout the entire process. I will never try to “sell” you anything you do not want. You will get professional, personal service always, from a true property “know-it-all.” If selling a home, you can expect a dedicated, knowledgeable listing agent to best represent your largest investment on the MLS, and on a multitude of websites. I will also provide a complimentary 3D Video Tour of your home. (It’s dynamite!)
I have attained the designation of Green Building Sales Professional, Certified New Home Specialist, and Residential Construction Certified agent, allowing me to help you navigate through the process of buying a new construction home in one of the many builder developments in the area. See me before visiting a model home. For the 8th year, I have been named one of Sarasota Magazine’s Five Star – Best in Client Satisfaction award winners. I always try to be available, and I’ll actually answer my phone when you call.

Tom Battisto's Testimonials
Tom, Thank you for the kind words. We consider ourselves very fortunate to have found you to handle the sale of our parents home. Your extensive area contacts for handymen, plumbers, painters, junk removal etc, were a perfect fit for us as out of town sellers trying to manage the sale of a home needing a bit of "love" from far away. We have remarked several times about how easy you made all of this for us and particularly appreciate your staying in frequent almost daily contact-with good news or bad. Frankly, I have no idea what we would have done in several instances without you. I am a district sales manager to (20) truck dealers in 5 states, all with multiple salespeople.I will share this experience with them in the future as a shining example of sales professionalism. If you ever need a reference or a dose of icy winter weather, please don't hesitate to call!

We had the good fortune of having Tom Battisto of Gulf Shores Realty handle the very difficult purchase of our condo, He stuck to it even though it was a very convoluted transaction. We would recommend Tom to anyone who is buying or selling real estate.
Dave and Sheryll S Testimonial for Tom Battisto
Tom was essential to have in our home buying and selling process. He was knowledgeable, extremely easy to work with, and highly communicative. As out-of-state sellers, he made the entire process a breeze and stress-free. He went above and beyond on multiple counts to ensure that the process was handled smoothly and professionally. Quite simply, he was a joy to work with and we are so grateful to him as our real estate professional. We highly recommend Tom and his expertise to anyone with real estate needs in the area. Thanks again, Tom. You really made the whole process easy for us. We are so grateful!
Christina and Rob - Palm Springs
Tom's performance as our realtor was outstanding!! Tom sold two houses for us. After the first sale we knew Tom will be our realtor for the second sale, didn't even interview any other realtor. Tom held multiple open houses, keeping us informed with an immediate E mail as to what, if any, interest there was. When it came to an offer, Tom was the perfect negotiator; lots of going back and forth as the offer was lower than our asking price but with Tom's expertise all parties came to a satistory conclusion. Jack and I would recommend Tom to anyone knowing his professionalism and commitment to being a realtor.
Ann K Testimonial for Tom Battisto
Tom was indispensable in helping us find our new home. He was professional, knowledgeable, and responsive to all of our questions. We felt confident during the entire process that Tom was an advocate for our best interest. We highly recommend Tom; he’s the best Realtor in town!
Christina M. - Bend, OR
Thank you for the thoughtful expertise you have extended first to my mother and then to her again through me and Paul. I appreciate the steady guidance and support you provided particularly as the hoops we needed to jump through appeared. I do hope the woman who bought the condo is happy and experiences lots of joy living there as it is a sweet spot. The clients you represent are in the best of hands with you. I appreciate your graciousness and positive outlook throughout. I wish you lovely summer and great success in this current market and beyond.
