I dealt with Octavia years ago..trying to find a house...but financially I was not ready....I always remembered how professional, personable and Informative Octavia was back then....and much to my delight ...she has that same attitude...She is very thorough and she aims to please her clients...I was very impressed with her ....
Octavia Kept me informed from start to finish...She walked me through any questions I asked her...and made sure my best interest was her first priority...
Octavia makes you feel like you are her only client...I like that...
While Octavia was on vacation..another staff member was handling Octavias showings...needless to say there were some unanswered text and a mix up with a showing...so I decided to wait for Octavia to return...
I would recommend Ocavia to my family and friends

I felt that Octavia is a good person, she's easy to work with and shows great concern when helping people find a good home.
I thought I knew what to look for in buying my home, but l found there's a lot more to it. I was amazed with how much she knew about the process, when there was a question asked that she may not have been sure of, she made it a point to get the right answers.
In finding the house l now call HOME, there were ups and downs an at times even frustrations when l was over bided. However, Octavia stade fast an patience the whole way through.
This was a long draw out process, it just so happened, the day before her vacation we viewed a house, it was at 2 Lyons Ave. She made arrangements with her coworker to look out for me while she was away, thay did just that. I was informed a day later my bib had been axcepted, I am so grateful for co-workers hehp, and every one at Century 21.
I had certain things in mind I wanted in a house that weren't in a few homes l bided on, like a garage or finished basement, but through diligence on Octavia's part l found just the right house. It's a great feeling. A SPECIAL THANKS to Octavia Samuels for helping to make this a reality.

My experience with Octavia was great! Any future needs that I have for buying or selling homes, I will be looking for her professional help. She is very hard working & I will be recommending her to all my friends & family.
Octavia is someone you when you are selling or buying a home. She is willing to get to the route of any issue and explains everything very well. Never once did I feel uncomfortable or uneasy. She was always willing to answer my questions and always available by text or a call. I will be recommending and using her again!
Mrs Samuels made a traumatic transition for both me and my younger brother George bearable. After my husband died in 2014, it was obvious I could no longer maintain the property on my own. Based on Mrs Samuels recommendations, the house sold for the asking price in four days.
Now I am settled in my new home and my brother misses Miss O. I will always recommend her services without reservations!
Thank you for taking over the listing of my previous home located at 15 E Hawthorne Dr, Newark, DE.
The noticeable difference was the manner in which the property was marketed. The professional photographs were in direct contrast to the repeated poor pictures quality that frustrated me greatly and attracted very few prospects during the first listing agreement. Once the professional photographs were published, the showings dramatically increased. To the point I had to decline showings after the offer contract was signed off on.
Also a noticeable difference in the way the property was described added to the increase of interest in the property. That too was very disappointing and frustrating to me, I even tried to assist with the description of the home and amenities (and photographs).
You enlightened me with the “showing app”, the various functions to keep up with the appointments, and the ability to formulate reports.
When the offer was presented, you paid close attention to details and offered guidance/suggestions during the negotiation of the contract. There was a stressful time after the home inspections regarding an alleged structural issue that would have cost thousands of dollars. With your assistance, we had a Structural Engineer inspect the home, no defects were found and the cost of “repairs” were reduced to zero.
You were present from start to finish, via texts, emails and telephone calls with clear and concise communication. I wasn’t left wondering if I was alone in this process anymore. Many, many thanks to you. I have and will continue to do so, recommend you to others for their real estate needs.
Great to work with I am an investor and will continue to use her over and over again
I really can't say enough about my experience with Octavia. She is a wonderful realtor! She is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. During the process of purchasing my first home, she was attentive and responsive to my needs. As a new homebuyer, I had no idea what I was looking for. She listened to my wish list and sent me daily listings that matched my preferences. You can only imagine the countless houses I requested to see. She was always patient and informative. When it was time to sell my home, I knew that she was the best realtor for the job. The homebuying/selling process can be long and stressful. She met with me several times to determine the best marketing strategy for my home. It was executed very effectively. You want someone who is honest and trustworthy. That's Octavia. What I appreciate most, is that she does not hesitate to advocate for her client. After all we've been through, I consider her family!
She is a very helpful and responsible worker
Octavia was a joy to work with.
Before hiring Octavia, I had another realtor who just didn't get it - they didn't understand my needs or display real expertise in helping me to sell my home. From the onset of meeting Octavia, her expertise and professionalism was evident. She was personable. focused, clear, confident and knowledgeable. With her help, we sold our home in less than 21 days for the full asking price, while with the previous realtor it sat un-viewed and on the market for 30 days. If you are selling your home, I highly recommend Octavia and I recommend that you call her. She will do her due diligence, leverage her network, market your home innovatively and get your home sold.
Really help me through the process very patient and make sure nothing fall between the cracks she when above and beyond.
