Fernando Taveras

After proudly serving over 20 years in the United States Marine Corps, I’ve made it my mission to continue serving, this time by helping individuals and families find a place they can truly call home.

I relocated my family from Quantico, Virginia to Lakewood Ranch in the fall of 2021 and have lived in this incredible community ever since. From top-rated schools and friendly neighbors to amazing dining, shopping, and proximity to award-winning Gulf beaches, I know firsthand what makes the Sarasota-Manatee County area one of the best places to live and I’m here to help you experience that for yourself.

Buying or selling a home is often the biggest financial decision a person will make and it should be one of the most rewarding. As a veteran who moved every few years, I understand the stress and uncertainty that come with relocation. That experience taught me how important it is to feel supported, informed, and understood during a transition. That’s why I approach every client with the same core values that defined my military career: honor, accountability, discipline, clear communication, and service before self. My background in logistics, operations, and leadership makes me highly organized and mission focused. I listen closely to your needs, explain the process clearly, and work tirelessly to protect your best interests, every step of the way.

Whether you’re a first-time buyer, seller, relocating for work, upsizing, downsizing, or transitioning out of the military, I’ll guide you through the process with professionalism, patience, and personal care. I also speak Spanish and am proud to serve a diverse community of clients.

With Coldwell Banker Realty’s trusted name behind me and your goals in front of me, I’m here to help you not just buy or sell a house, but to make it feel like home.
