Windward Lake Club – Windward Lake Club is situated across 19-acres along the southwest edge of Lake Windward. The club features a world-class tennis center, with twenty lighted hard surface tennis courts, two clay courts, two platform courts, and six ten-years-old and under courts.

Hear From Our Clients

“Choosing Brian to sell my home was one of the best decisions I have ever made! Brian was invaluable in guiding me through the entire process. He answered my questions and provided the direction I needed. Moving can be one of the most stressful things that we do in life and Brian made it so much easier. Having not moved for 19 years, it was great to have someone like Brian to work with to get my home sold without a hitch! Thanks, Brian!”

- Kevin M.

“When it came time to sell my home, a friend suggested Brian. During our initial meeting it was clear that he saw the true value of my property, which was well above what some other agents had suggested. I asked lots of questions and was impressed with both his answers and his knowledge of the community. I signed the agent agreement that day. The rest of the process was seamless. Brian was a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Brian to anyone who is interested in selling their home.”

- Melissa F.

“Brian did spectacular work in managing the sale of our home in less than two weeks’ time! He was able to secure 11 bids over the asking price in a 10-day period. More impressive was the way in which he communicated with all the stakeholders and organized the buyer activities. He did everything from securing the bid, working with all the attorneys, and liaising with the lender. Brian’s marketing skills, communication approach, service ethic, and overall professionalism are more than notable.”

- Edward R. & Tere W.

“Brian went above and beyond what is expected of a real estate agent. He explored every option in order to make sure I was happy and comfortable, and ultimately got what I wanted.”

- Justin K.

“Brian made the purchase process enjoyable and entertaining. He had a relaxed yet engaged attitude, and readily took cues as to what we were looking for. Once we were in contract, Brian took a lot of the anxiety out of the next steps. He explained processes and timelines, and readily followed up. Even after we closed, Brian remained in contact with us to recommend workers to help us spruce up our new place. Coming from out of town, we were able to use our time efficiently, which we really appreciated.”

- Anne & Phil B.

“My family and I have worked with Brian for over 10 years. We met when he was holding an Open House for a client. I knew right away from his professionalism and friendliness that he was the broker I wanted to work with. Brian has helped us buy and sell many homes over the years, always putting his best foot forward and being unbelievably persistent to accomplish our goals. Thank you, Brian. It has been quite a ride!”

- Burton & Deborah S.

“We never write testimonials, good or bad, but the real estate services provided by Brian Henson deserve a break from the norm. From the moment we met Brian he has been masterfully prepared, the highest standard of professional, and beyond kind and understanding. We have bought and sold several homes and have never had the process go as seamlessly as it did with Brian. He made sure we were aware of all developments and yet took all of the burden of the details off of us. We will always recommend Brian to our friends and family when they are looking to buy or sell a home.”

- Dave & Carrie S.

“I had previously listed with a competing brokerage and couldn’t get the price I wanted. Brian was able to secure my asking price in a short amount of time. He was always pleasant and kind – a true gentleman. Empathic to my needs, he realized this was a tough decision for me and he walked me through every step. When I buy something else, Brian will be my guy!  I highly recommend him.”

- Cathy K.

“We can’t thank Brian enough for his hard work in making the daunting process of buying and selling a home more than manageable. His knowledge, patience and expertise made both our purchase and sale a success. We are thankful to have been 100% confident in our agent’s character and abilities. Thank you, Brian.”

- Dave & Beth S.

“Brian was a pleasure to work with and made the buying process easy. He coached us towards the right offer, and helped us through the financing and due diligence process. His attitude, professionalism, and attention to detail made the whole process almost pleasant! He will be our agent again if we ever leave this wonderful home.”

- Mike & Jackie M.
