I was born in Lancaster, PA, but fortunately my parents wanted to reside where the weather was warm and the sun shining all of the time! I enjoyed many sunny days living on Siesta Key where my parents raised me, my two sisters and my brother. I have always felt that Sarasota is a great place to raise a family and followed in my parent’s footsteps raising three children of my own. I began my real estate career in 2002 and today I work in the office as your "concierge" for all the Hunt Brothers Realty clients.

robhunt@huntbrothersrealty.com

Co-founding Hunt Brothers Realty with his brother and business partner Chris Hunt was a blessing neither of them saw coming while growing up in snowy Syracuse NY. Rob decided to relocate to Sarasota based on the advice from his brother Chris over 20 years ago. That choice became life-changing as Rob immediately fell in love with the west coast of Florida, especially the great communities throughout Sarasota and its gorgeous barrier islands.

Dedication Creates Results

Beyond anything else, Rob is most dedicated to meeting his client’s expectations. By treating each transaction as his own, Rob earns his client's trust and respect proven by the consistent stream of referrals he receives year after year. Whether his clients are buying or selling, Rob evaluates their goals then implements a course of action that achieves the desired results. There are many considerations and choices to make during the course of buying or selling a property and Rob believes his clients deserve his personal attention and expertise throughout the transaction.

Superior Market Knowledge is a Key Advantage

Rob believes that staying current with market trends, analyzing sales statistics, and optimizing today’s technology provides his team the knowledge required to successfully manage his client’s real estate needs. Rob is keenly focused on new communities throughout the market as well as how trends in residential redevelopment are affecting existing neighborhood values.

An Experienced Investor

Hunt Brothers Development was formed to manage the growth of the Hunt Brothers real estate portfolio. Over the years Hunt Brothers Development has invested in, renovated, and developed many homes throughout Sarasota, Siesta Key, Lido Key, and Longboat Key. With a great passion for home design and construction, Rob’s ability to discover the hidden potential of a home through proper renovations is a unique skillset earned through years of experience. A close relationship with builders, contractors, architects, and tradesman allows Rob the ability to efficiently manage construction details and delegate tasks throughout a project.

A Balanced Life

While he remains highly dedicated to his career, Rob fully understands what leading a balanced life means. Beyond business, Rob is a devoted family man who enjoys spending time with his wife Andrea and raising their two beautiful daughters Avery & Ella. Rob is committed to being a supportive husband and father and tries hard every day to make as many family memories as possible.

Thank you for the opportunity to earn your business.
