Thomas Rummel

Buying or selling a home is one of life's biggest financial decisions. Who you work with matters. Some careers take you around the world. Mine ultimately brought me to Sarasota. Together with my husband and business partner, Gerard Healy, I help buyers and sellers across Sarasota and Florida's Gulf Coast navigate the real estate process with thoughtful strategy, honest advice and concierge-level service. Having lived and worked across Europe, New Zealand, the Middle East, Canada and now the United States, I've spent more than 35 years helping people navigate important decisions, build trusted relationships and move forward with confidence.

Double the Commitment. Double the Experience.

Committed to helping you achieve the best possible results.

Experience

Looking back, I don't see a series of unrelated careers. I see a lifetime spent helping people move forward with confidence. From aviation and luxury travel to customer loyalty, commercial strategy and business transformation, every chapter has shaped the advisor I am today. Today, together with my husband and business partner, Gerard Healy, I help buyers and sellers across Sarasota and Florida's Gulf Coast navigate the real estate process with thoughtful strategy, honest advice and concierge-level service. Gerard brings more than 20 years of local Sarasota real estate expertise and an in-depth understanding of the communities, neighbourhoods and lifestyle that make this area so special. I bring an international perspective, extensive commercial negotiation experience and a career built around exceptional customer experiences and long-term relationships. Together, we believe buying or selling a home should never feel overwhelming. Our role is to simplify complexity, anticipate challenges, communicate proactively and remain trusted advisors long after the transaction has closed. Whether you're searching for your forever home, a luxury waterfront property, a seasonal retreat, an investment opportunity or preparing to sell a much-loved family home, every client receives the same level of care, professionalism and attention to detail. We proudly assist:

• Families relocating to Florida
• Luxury and waterfront home buyers and sellers
• Vacation and second-home purchasers
• International clients, particularly English and German speakers
• Local buyers and sellers
• Investors
• Retirees

Professional Specialty

Having lived and worked across five countries and helped clients from around the world throughout my career, I understand that every move is different.

Niche Marketing

Having personally relocated internationally five times throughout my career, I understand that moving is about far more than finding the right property. It's about building a new life, navigating unfamiliar systems and making confident decisions along the way. That firsthand experience allows me to guide relocating buyers with empathy, practical advice and genuine understanding, whether they're moving across the country or across the world. Much of my earlier career was spent with globally recognized premium travel brands including Emirates, Etihad Airways, WestJet Vacations, Hapag Lloyd Cruises and Air Miles (BMO Financial Group), where exceptional customer experiences weren't just marketing slogans - they were business philosophies. Those experiences shaped my understanding of what truly differentiates outstanding service. Luxury isn't simply about premium products. It's about creating confidence. Anticipating needs. Removing complexity. Building trust. Making every client feel genuinely cared for. Those principles continue to guide every aspect of our real estate business today. Equally important is finding the right brokerage to support our clients. After spending much of my career with successful family-owned businesses that grew through innovation, integrity and long-term relationships, William Raveis Real Estate felt like a natural fit. Its collaborative culture, global reach, powerful marketing platform and commitment to concierge-level service closely reflect the way Gerard and I believe real estate should be practiced. Real estate has never been about transactions for us. It's about relationships. It's about understanding what matters most to each client and helping them make informed decisions with confidence. Our business has been built one relationship at a time, and we would be honored to help you write the next chapter of yours. We will always...

Tell you what you need to hear - not just what you want to hear.

Communicate proactively.

Protect your interests as if they were our own.

Never pressure you into a decision.

Be there long after closing day.

Education

Experience provides perspective. Education keeps it relevant. Real estate is constantly evolving. Markets change, regulations evolve and technology continues to reshape the way properties are bought and sold. We believe our clients deserve advisors who never stop learning. That's why we continually invest in professional education, advanced certifications and industry training. While credentials alone don't define great Realtors, they reflect our commitment to delivering informed advice, thoughtful strategy and exceptional service, ensuring the guidance we provide is current, relevant and always focused on helping you achieve the best possible outcome.
