About Me
Full Agent Bio
Carol has been fortunate to lead a colorful life. Born in New Jersey, she moved to Santa Cruz, CA in 1979 to pursue a career in corporate sales. Eventually, on a tip from a computer tech in Silicon Valley, she pioneered the nuevo idea of working from home. Then, at a time when going online involved listening to the sound of a dial up modem, Carol blazed a trail as she lead a team to develop an original mail order website. Beyond her career-oriented skills in negotiation and customer service, Carol boldly faces each challenge, never settles for a “no”, and loves to innovate, create, and collaborate. She even applied those traits as she established her own flower business, living abroad in Sydney, Australia for three years.
Carol’s husband, Peter is a full-time music teacher at a public school and a professional classical guitarist. Her son attended Ringling College of Art and Design and majored in computer animation. An enthusiastic member, Carol loves the flowers and fragrances of Marie Selby Botanical Gardens. She also loves cooking, gift giving, and essentially anything that makes people smile.

Testimonials
We have moved quite a few times in our lives both in our former home in Pennsylvania and here in Florida. With all that experience, we can say quite confidently that Carol Simms is the best real estate agent we have ever encountered. She is the model of professionalism because she actually listens to her customers and does everything that she can to meet their expectations. She offers insights and advice when asked, but she never forces her customers into doing anything that is not in their best interest. Best of all, Carol is patient in her approach and never take any shortcuts just to make a sale. Lastly, Carol’s caring personality lead to a relationship based on friendship more than just a business encounter. The Michael Saunders Company is indeed fortunate to have an agent like Carol.
Fabulous agent who who listened to my wishes, desires, needs in a home and found exactly what I wanted. I so appreciated her research and especially appreciated that she only called me when she found what met my criteria. After my offer was accepted she kept on top of everything (even things I never thought of). She would send me an email once a week to keep me up to date on the closing progress. I highly recommend Carol.
