MEET THOMAS

Thomas Netzel is a Broker Associate with Premier Sotheby’s International Realty® and is based in Sarasota, Florida. In addition to over 22 years of professional real estate experience, he has a diverse career background that has enabled him to provide his clientele the highest level of personal service and superior real estate sales results. He and his team have sold millions of dollars worth of residential properties and his market reach in Florida spans from Tampa to Naples.

Previously a Creative Director at a global advertising agency and currently a top broker at one of the most prestigious real estate firms in the world, Thomas continuously raises the marketing of ultra-premium residences to whole new benchmarks. Thomas’ experience negotiating and closing high-stakes deals gives him the ability to deliver results that net his clients the best return on investment.

Thomas believes the best way to generate maximum exposure for his team’s listings is to leverage masterful advertising techniques, emerging digital and social trends, as well as film-level production practices. As such, he has developed The Ad AgenC, a powerhouse team of experts focused on artfully integrating these marketing services into our team’s core services.

Also, in seeing the incredible global interest in Florida real estate, Thomas created the Property 10 Network. With it, he not only maximizes the global exposure of his clients’ listings through Sotheby’s proprietary database of auction house clients, but also through a network with over 26,000 Sotheby’s International Realty agents around the world.

Yet with Thomas, there is still more. In 2023, he launched a TV series featuring ultra-premium homes across the Gulf Coast, Inside Luxury Listings: Sarasota. Not only do the homes receive compounded exposure from viewers, but Thomas’ listings also receive additional exposure from increased site traffic from viewers.

Thomas embodies the Florida Gulf Coast lifestyle. He loves golfing year-round, boating in the Gulf or Intercoastal, frequenting local theaters and exhibits, and exploring any of the amazing activities and events in our area!
