Originally from northern New Jersey, Ray Rausa brings a strong and accomplished financial background to his real estate career, having served as both a Controller and Chief Financial Officer. In those roles, he was responsible for protecting the assets of owners and shareholders while driving profitability and minimizing risk; experience that now gives him a powerful, results-driven edge in aggressively protecting his customers' interests and maximizing value in every real estate transaction. Known for remarkable results, integrity, and knowledge, Ray distinguishes himself by consistently delivering a high level of personalized service. He takes the time to truly understand each buyer’s or seller’s goals and motivations, while maintaining clear, consistent communication throughout every stage of the process. Ray believes real estate is about achieving successful outcomes for sellers and creating meaningful new beginnings for buyers, and he takes great pride in serving as a knowledgeable and trusted guide. As a dedicated advocate, he works tirelessly to protect his clients’ best interests, minimizing the risks and inconveniences often associated with buying and selling a home. A fierce negotiator, Ray is known for his commitment to ensuring no value is left on the table. His expertise is further enhanced by extensive firsthand experience buying and selling properties, as well as overseeing new construction, additions and renovations. This practical insight allows him to confidently guide clients through the complexities of purchasing, selling, and remodeling with clarity and assurance. His expanding portfolio of client success stories has earned him placement among the upper echelon of agents at Michael Saunders & Company, Florida’s leading Gulf Coast brokerage. Ray holds a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from Rutgers University and has been recognized as a Five Star Real Estate Professional and an MSC Top Performing Agent for five consecutive years.
Beyond real estate, Ray brings balance to his life through creative and personal pursuits. He plays guitar, considers himself a “terminal beginner” at golf, and is deeply committed to giving back to the community. He supports the Michael Saunders Foundation, which provides funding to organizations offering shelter, sustenance, education, and pathways to self-sufficiency. He also proudly supports The Food Pantry, believing no child should ever go hungry, and the Wildlife Conservation Society, reflecting his belief that protecting our planet is essential to our future.
Family is at the center of everything Ray does. He has been happily married to his wife, Eve, for 39 years, and together they are immensely proud of their two sons; a NY/NJ attorney and a Global Vice President, as well as their accomplished daughter-in-law, an Advertising Planning Executive and new, devoted mom.
