Christine del Monte

About

Local intelligence. Global perspective. Relationships for life.For more than 20 years, Christine del Monte has built her real estate career around a simple philosophy: earn the relationship, not just the transaction.A Global Luxury Real Estate Advisor with Coldwell Banker Realty, Christine represents buyers, sellers, investors and relocating clients throughout Sarasota and Florida's Gulf Coast. She specializes in luxury residences, waterfront properties, downtown condominiums, new construction, second homes and lifestyle-driven real estate.Known for her energy, tenacity, attention to detail and highly personalized approach, Christine brings something increasingly valuable to real estate: experience, judgment and genuine human connection.Her clients don't simply hire her to open doors or market a property. They rely on her to analyze opportunities, anticipate challenges, negotiate strategically, connect the right resources and protect their interests from the first conversation through closing and beyond.Proven Experience. Personal Representation.Christine's business has grown largely through repeat clients, referrals and relationships, a testament to the trust she has earned throughout her career.Her five-star client reviews consistently speak to the qualities she values most: responsiveness, market knowledge, negotiation skills, professionalism, communication and extraordinary attention to detail.Whether representing a multimillion-dollar luxury residence, a waterfront property, a downtown condominium, an investment or someone's first Sarasota home, Christine believes luxury is not a price point. It is a standard of service.Every client deserves to feel informed, protected and confident in the decisions they make.That commitment has contributed to Christine's continued recognition within Coldwell Banker, including the International Diamond Society, along with her five-star client ratings and a 2026 business year that is developing into one of the strongest of her career.Local Expertise. Global Perspective.Originally from the Midwest, Christine combines a strong work ethic with an international perspective shaped by years of living and working abroad.She spent many years in Puerto Rico, became bilingual in English and Spanish and developed a career that included leadership roles in luxury hospitality and tourism, entrepreneurship and destination consulting for relocating executives and families.Those experiences shaped the service philosophy she brings to real estate today: listen carefully, anticipate needs, communicate clearly and make complicated transitions feel exceptionally well managed.Since making Sarasota home in 2003, Christine has developed an intimate understanding of the communities, properties and lifestyles that define Florida's Gulf Coast, from downtown Sarasota and its barrier islands to Longboat Key, Lido Key, Siesta Key, Lakewood Ranch and the surrounding markets.She doesn't simply sell Sarasota.She lives it, understands it and loves introducing others to it.Strategy When It Matters MostToday's real estate market requires more than access to listings.It requires market intelligence, strategic positioning, skilled negotiation, creative problem-solving and an advisor who understands when to act and when to wait.For sellers, Christine brings a sophisticated approach to positioning, presentation, pricing, marketing and negotiation designed to distinguish a property in a competitive marketplace.For buyers and investors, she looks beyond the beautiful photography to help evaluate location, lifestyle, value, market conditions, resale considerations and long-term opportunity.Her experience also includes more than two years as the onsite sales specialist for a prestigious luxury new-construction condominium in downtown Sarasota, where she guided sophisticated buyers from contract through closing and developed extensive expertise in the nuances of condominium and new-development transactions.Her pr
