From Manhattan to Sarasota, Merryl brings a rare blend of sharp New York instincts and grounded Florida warmth to the real estate world. With years of proven experience in the Sarasota market, she is known for her steady guidance, strong negotiation skills, and an ability to connect with people in a way that makes every client feel genuinely seen and supported.
A grounded yogi at heart, Merryl approaches real estate the same way she approaches life—with presence, compassion, and an intuitive understanding of people. Her background in physiology and senior wellness taught her how to listen deeply, communicate clearly, and problem-solve with calm confidence. Those strengths naturally translate into the way she handles transactions: organized, thoughtful, proactive, and always centered on her clients’ well-being.
Family is at the core of who Merryl is, and that energy shows up in her work. She treats every client—whether a first-time buyer, a relocating family, or someone navigating a major life transition—as if they were part of her own circle. Relationships matter to her. Trust matters. And her commitment to helping people make empowered decisions is what keeps clients returning and confidently referring her.
Her lifelong passion for animal rescue, including her work helping create one of the area’s largest shelters, reveals the compassion and integrity that guide her both personally and professionally. When you work with Merryl, you know you’re working with someone who genuinely cares.
Rooted in the Sarasota community, active in Temple Emanu-El, and deeply connected to the people she serves, Merryl brings a perfect balance of market knowledge, emotional intelligence, and real-world experience. She’s the agent who advocates fiercely, communicates honestly, and makes even the most stressful moments feel manageable.
Whether you’re moving from New York, moving across town, or moving into the next chapter of your life, Merryl is the steady, skilled, deeply human partner you want by your side.
