Mike Stein performed a very professional and extremely thorough pre-closure inspection of our property in Pelican Bay using the CERTIFIED TO BUY Program. He discovered several items that needed attention, saving us thousands of dollars that in my opinion most inspectors would not have discovered. I attribute this to Michael’s extensive construction experience and his attention to detail. He also identified several items that will need attention post closing with estimated time frames and costs. Our realtor later confided with me that it was the most thorough inspection she had ever witnessed. I recommend this service to anyone buying a home today.

I have worked with Michael Stein in the Naples real estate market over the past 10 years. Michael is well established as developer of award winning communities in SW Florida and custom home builder with a reputation for uncompromising quality and customer service.
I recently experienced his home improvement analysis service which led to a number of changes and upgrades being made to a resale property I had listed in one of Naples finest golf course communities. I believe the value-added of these improvements led directly
to a sales contract being signed and a sale closed within 30 days after the services had been completed.
Michael’s hands-on approach began with a comprehensive on site inspection of the property, including all mechanical and structural systems which led to a prioritized list of value-added improvements with itemized cost estimates. After the services contract was signed by the homeowner, the work began immediately and the improvements made to the point where buyers could experience the value-added enhancements that were documented in the service contract.
I highly recommend Michael’s company, The Gentleman Builder, to anyone considering upgrades to their own home or to prepare their property for sale in order to realize the highest possible sales price in today’s competitive real estate market.

I am writing to thank you for the wonderful experience we have had working with your company. You took what was a basic idea and developed a fantastic addition to our home and kept the project within our budget. We looked at the big discount store options and quickly realized that quality products and construction cost no more with your company. The job was completed on time by your professional staff who took great care to keep the area around the construction neat and clean. You exceeded our expectations in every aspect of the project from quality of materials, workmanship and final product. We look forward to working with you again.

In today's world of automation and the inability to talk with a human, Michael Stein and Stein Builders is the exception.
They are builders of not only fine homes, they work with the buyer and for the buyer. It is rare to find builders that are willing to make changes in design if requested and to be fair in making the changes. The Stein team works as hands-on builders and are easily accessible. They made our home buying experience a memorable one.
We find their homes and their quality to be outstanding.

Thank you for al your help in making our purchase at Sierra Grande such a positive experience. The two key factors we considered in purchasing our new home were proximity to the beach and quality of construction. We were impressed with the professional quality of your ad on the web and Sierra Grande seemed to be a close match with our priorities - so much so that we put a deposit on our home sight unseen! Our vsiit to the property site confimred our initial reaction to your website and we were extremely happy with our purchase. The quality and amenities offered for the price along with the convenient location made our purchase hard to beat!

Our entire home purchasing experience at Forest Park has been great. The builder and the rest of the staff made all the decision making easy for us. We were impressed with their ability to take care of any questions that arose. Whenever we came to them with a question or change that we thought would be a problem, the response was always "Let me look into that for you." Then, they always came up with the perfect solution. The completed house is wonderful and our community is truly a safe and enjoyable place to live in.

We wanted to take a minute and tell you how much we love our new home. The walls are straight, making hanging wallpaper so easy. We have had four other homes built and never had such good fortune! The landscaping is beautiful throughout the community. All the little extras at Forest Park are great. The closing went smoothly and the agent was great.
