I cannot recommend Stone Flannery and his girlfriend Catie highly enough. They helped my 82-year-old mother sell her home in Martin County and transition to a new apartment, and they handled every single piece of an enormously stressful life change with a level of care I genuinely did not expect from a real estate transaction.
Stone is an Eagle Scout, and it shows in everything he does. He drove my mom around to look at new places, had dinner with her, and worked through complicated financial details to make sure everything was handled correctly. On moving day, he was physically hauling things out of the truck himself. This wasn't a guy managing a transaction from a distance — he was there, hands-on, doing the actual work.
What struck me most was how he and Catie helped my mom downsize a lifetime of belongings so everything would fit comfortably in her new place, without making her feel rushed or like she was losing something. That kind of emotional intelligence around a major life transition is rare. Catie sat and talked with my daughter about Taylor Swift while the move was happening, making sure even the kids in the family felt comfortable and included during a chaotic day.
I was coordinating all of this from 3,000 miles away in California, which made the entire process significantly more stressful. Stone and Catie made it possible for me to trust that my mom was genuinely taken care of even when I couldn't be there myself.
I'm a licensed therapist by trade, and I can tell you that putting the client's feelings and wellbeing first is not a common thing in any industry, let alone real estate. Stone and Catie do this instinctively. They treat people as humans first and clients second, and it shows in every interaction.
If you are looking for a realtor who will treat your family with genuine care during one of life's hardest transitions, Stone Flannery is the only name you need. He and Catie are a dynamic duo who go far above and beyond the call of duty. The absolute best.
