Why Netrealtynow.com?
Tom founded Netrealtynow.com after recognizing that the internet was changing the real estate industry.
As consumers gained access to more property information online, he believed sellers should have the ability to obtain MLS exposure without automatically paying a traditional percentage-based listing commission.
That philosophy became the foundation of Netrealtynow.com:

A Real Estate Investor’s Perspective
Tom’s personal experience as an investor gives him a different perspective when evaluating properties.
He understands that the purchase price is only one part of the equation.
An investor—or any buyer—should consider:
- Current market value
- Potential appreciation
- Rental potential
- Property condition
- Renovation costs
- Taxes
- Insurance
- HOA/condo costs
- Financing
- Resale potential
This experience is particularly useful when working with clients purchasing multifamily and investment properties.

Sarasota Real Estate
Netrealtynow.com serves various multi-state markets, including Sarasota, Florida’s Gulf Coast, Washington/Baltimore, Northern Virginia, and the New York metropolitan/Hudson Valley areas. This multi-state experience is particularly valuable for buyers and sellers who are relocating, moving between states, investing in multiple markets, or purchasing investment property outside their home state.
His Florida business focuses on residential, commercial and multifamily real estate, with particular interest in investment opportunities throughout the Sarasota and Gulf Coast region.
He brings the same approach to Sarasota that he developed over decades in other real estate markets:
Analyze the property.
Understand the market.
Determine the value.
Negotiate intelligently.
Protect the client’s interests.
A Different Approach to Real Estate
Tom believes that real estate brokerage shouldn’t have to be one-size-fits-all.
Some sellers want to handle much of the transaction themselves and simply need MLS exposure.
Others want professional assistance throughout the entire process.
Some buyers want traditional representation.
Others appreciate a brokerage model that can potentially return a portion of eligible buyer-side compensation to them.
Netrealtynow.com is designed to give consumers those choices.
How does Netrealtynow.com combine experience, technology, and value in real estate?
Tom combines traditional real estate experience with modern technology.
Netrealtynow.com uses:
- MLS systems
- Online property searches
- Digital documents
- Electronic signatures
- Listing syndication
- Online marketing
- Social media
- Digital communication
But technology is only a tool.
The real value is knowing what to do with the information.
Tom’s Philosophy
Real Estate Is About More Than Buying and Selling Property.
It’s about making good financial decisions.
Whether you’re buying your first home, selling a longtime residence, purchasing an investment property or selling a multifamily building, the decisions made before and during the transaction can have a significant financial impact.
Tom’s approach is straightforward:
Listen to the client.
Understand the objective.
Analyze the market.
Provide honest advice.
Negotiate aggressively when appropriate.
Complete the transaction professionally.
