We were assigned Tony Trussler and he turned out to be great. I'll give you some details. When we took our 7 day LSV in April 2011, I had requested to look at CYV's and cottages. Upon arrival Tony met us in the lobby of the LSL sales office. The next day, Tony took us to Amberjack Villas in Buttonwood and we went through every model that was available. He then took us across St. Charles to a street of cottages and we went through cottage model. Then I played two rounds of golf arranged by Tony, and we drove around TV's. I then contacted Tony to see Patio Villas. The next day he took us to Southwood Villas in Buttonwood and we saw both models and both versions with the regular ceiling and the vaulted ceiling.
We returned to Maryland and three weeks later we listed our home and sold it the next day. I called Tony and told him we had sold our home and I was between a Patio Villa and a masonry CYV and we wanted to put a deposit on a home. My budget was about $160,000 and Tony found us a masonry CYV of the model we wanted, in our price range. It was priced at $169,000 and just been reduced to $162,400. While we were talking on the phone, and I was looking at the home online, the price dropped again to $156,995. I don't know what Tony did, but I ended buying that CYV sight-unseen that very moment.
Just before closing, Tony met us at our new home and was with us for the walk through. About a month after we moved in, Tony invited us along with about 50 other customers to take a trolley ride to see the 7 new furnished models in Sanibel. Even though we were no longer in the market, it was interesting to walk through the homes and we had wine and cheese waiting at the end. The following January, Tony invited us and about 150 of his other customers to the Lake Miona Rec Center for a nice sit down dinner and musical entertainment. This past January, Tony invited us once again with many of his other customers to the Sea Breeze Rec Center for a buffet dinner and music.
Tony's assistant is his wife, who previously was a nurse for 35 years. Anytime I called Tony I almost always got his wife and she could answer just about any question or find out the answer. If I left a message, she usually returned the call in a short amount of time.
I would highly recommend Tony Trussler and for those who are coming from across the pond, Tony speaks with a British accent. To show you how he goes above the average. When we bought our home sight-unseen, there was no photos on the website, just the construction cartoon. Tony and his wife drove out that night to the home and took photos inside and out and emailed them to me that very night.
