Robert Goldman, Realtor®
JURIS DOCTOR

Robert’s record speaks for itself. After a distinguished career as a Real Estate Attorney in Rhode Island and Massachusetts, in 2009 Robert retired, establishing his home in Venice, Florida as his primary residence. He found retirement was not for him. He missed the rhythm of work and began to look for opportunities that would complement his lifetime experiences in a fulfilling and productive manner.

I... more.n 2011, he joined Michael Saunders & Company. The transition from the practice of real estate law to real estate sales has been seamless. Years spent building a law firm, in property development, negotiating and drafting contracts, and handling thousands of closings is fully utilized for the benefit of his buyers and sellers. Robert has quickly risen to the top of the real estate sales industry in his marketplace. He has sold over $50,000,000 worth of real estate. He is amongst the highest producing Realtors at Michael Saunders & Company, and amongst the top 1% of all Realtors at the Venice Area Board of Realtors.

Robert believes what is most important is to live a life of purpose for your family and community. He donates a portion from the sale of every home to the MSC Foundation, issuing grants to local non-profit organizations. Robert was instrumental in negotiating the purchase of 4 ¼ acres of prime real estate on Jacaranda Boulevard in Venice, where construction of Phase II of the Chabad Jewish Life Center is underway.

Robert and Luisa are also deeply committed to Safe Place and Rape Crisis Center (“SPARCC”), serving Sarasota County.

Proud parents of 2 sons (both involved in real estate and development in Denver and Boston), an amazing daughter-in-law, the best grandson, and the cutest little dog.
