A second-generation Realtor who traded Rochester winters for the Gulf Coast, and treats every client’s move like his own.
2nd-GenerationRich Tyson grew up in Rochester, New York, and comes from a family of Realtors. He spent more than a decade in the business up north before following the sun to Florida’s Gulf Coast, where he now lives with his wife, their daughter, and two Boston terriers.
That background gives Rich something a lot of Sarasota agents can’t offer: he genuinely knows both ends of the move. He still owns a real estate brokerage in New York, but his focus and his heart are here, helping people land somewhere that feels like home from day one.
He holds a Luxury Homes Certification along with the GRI, RSPS, e-Pro, and SFR designations, and he backs all of it with a simple promise he calls RISE.
Calls and texts answered, never ignored.
An agent who works for you, not a quota.
He chases the deal so you never chase him.
Straight answers and your interests first.
Rich hangs his license with Preferred Shore, a Sarasota-based brokerage built around the Gulf Coast lifestyle. It pairs local, boutique-level attention with the tools and reach of a modern real estate company.
For clients, that means Rich’s personal, hands-on service is backed by a full brokerage behind the scenes, from marketing and listings to the network that helps out-of-state buyers land smoothly.
