Front start to finish,the professionalism and efficiency has been superb. I couldn’t have had a better agent to work with.

Kimberly Tate

A very happy and fulfilling experience. She was very professional and personal with a friendly personality. She made me feel like family. Thank you for all you have done for me and I would definitely tell all of my family and friends about you. The best realtor I've ever met hands down.

Alissa Barbato

I highly recommend Valerie McNeal of Keller Williams Realty if you are looking to sell your home. She provided her expert opinion on how to renovate our home to sell it for top dollar. She led us through the process, culminating in us receiving multiple offers on the property basically within minutes of listing the house. We closed within a month, over list price.

Monarch Butterfly LLC

We listed our house with Valerie and she sold the house within 10 days. Valerie and her team were friendly, responsive and professional during the process to get us to the settlement table.

Linda Conner

My realtor was professional at all times. She gave close attention to my needs and concerns. Always answered every phone call and question without hesitation. Kept me posted on my home situation and most of all was honest. Thank you Valerie for all you have done for me and my family. You are an awesome agent.

Tamara Smith

Valerie helped me sell my house. A short sale is especially stressful, and she was always available and ready to help if I needed her. I would definitely recommend Valerie if you need an agent.

Alma Scarborough

I can't say enough about Valerie, she helped my family to find an amazing home. My husband and I really had no idea want we were doing. Valerie took her time with us and walked us through the process of narrowing down what we wanted and where we wanted to be. Thank you so much Valerie for making my dream a reality.

Kevin Wilson

Valerie was a pleasure to work with. Her knowledge of the business and how it should work was impressive. I felt very comfortable with her as my listing agent. From the time the sign went up in my yard and all the way to the settlement table I knew I was in good hands.

Len Hampton

Over the 25 years I have known Val, she has been one of the most focused and committed business people I know. She cares about doing her job well overall and has found her life’s work helping others via the real estate industry. She has helped many people and families fulfill their homeownership dreams. You will enjoy working with this friendly, “can do” attitude-driven professional.

Saffie Muna Jeter

After struggling with being a reluctant landlord for years, I knew that when the time came to sell the property, I would need a Rockstar of an agent. Valerie McNeal is that and much more. My vetting process was intense ( talking to many agents), I finally landed on Valerie. From our very fist meeting, I found her to be knowledgeable about the market, through, and candid. She kept me in the loop every step of the way: guiding me through the rehab process, and stilling my nerves during the challenging times.
I had a contract on my rental property within a week of listing! She was there for me from our fist meeting to closing day! Valerie & her team are true professionals. Check them out at Keller Williams Integrity- Saffie Muna Jeter

Kerry Roberts

Valerie provides a wealth of knowledge in regards to home sales, she and the Bob Lucido team have been so professional and provided the necessary guidance for first time sellers to complete the process with ease. When my family and I relocated from Maryland to Florida, Valerie assured me that she would handle everything. She did not disappoint and truly went above and beyond from start to end. I’m grateful for the referral and would highly recommend Valerie and the Bob Lucido team without reservation. Thank you again for your support throughout this process!

Melissa Abraham

Valerie was amazing, trust worthy and professional. She is the best in the business and my house was sold quickly! She puts the needs of the customer first! She has made the house buying process most enjoyable.

Jana Long

Valerie McNeal is the ultimate professional who supports her clients throughout the selling/buying process. She is proactive and keeps her clients updated and offers her expertise to navigate through negotiations. Personally, she has been a sustaining force through a difficult property sale to a developer. It has been reassuring to know that she has a role in shepherding the process to closure. She brings excellence and integrity to her work.

Amber Martin

Valerie was such a joy to work with. Her professionalism and personality was great. She was very responsive and addressed any questions I had. She told me she would have my property sold by March. The house was on the market for about 1 month and was sold. She met my brother and sister in law the day we met. They were very impressed with her and passed her information to a friemd that was putting her home up for sale.

J Towles

Valerie has a compelling blend of professionalism and approachability (being accessible and open to discussion) that worked for me. She and her team worked quickly to advise us on a price point for the home that made good sense, to facilitate staging of the home, to post the listing, and to secure a number of competitive offers in short order. The process from acceptance of an offer to closing was well-managed. I highly recommend Valerie and her team!

Hiran Tennakoon

Valerie is a great realtor! In a market with low inventory, she was able to find us a home in the area and neighborhood we wanted. She was extremely knowledgeable about both the market and the area and her recommendations and suggestions were invaluable. We highly recommend her!

Obioma Ohia

As a first time home buyer, Valerie helped walk me through the intricacies of the process, pointing out what to look for and what to expect. She extremely knowledgeable about everything house related, and because of her ability to build strong relationships, I was able to get the house that I wanted, at the price I wanted as well.

Emanuel Riley

As a first-time homebuyer, Valerie and her team were incredibly helpful as they helped me and my partner from day one to understand the full home purchase process. Val set us up with a great lending team and advised me and my partner on ways to put in a competitive bid for a home that did not always include offering a higher price. Val is very knowledgable in all things real estate and her guidance was greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Valerie and her team!

Sierra Kelley-Chung

Valerie is an absolute expert, you will be in very good hands in her care. She does her homework, takes time to get an accurate understanding of your needs, and makes you feel as though you are her only client. She helped us navigate and negotiate a very complicated manner that dealt with foundation issues on a property and we were very happy with the result. She is the best!

Valerie is very energetic, highly positive, and extremely professional. She is a pleasure to work with. Valerie is very detailed, thorough, and an expert in her profession. Valerie took great care of me. As she anticipated at the outset, my house sold in less than 30 days! Valerie showed care and concern throughout the process to assure that I was a completely satisfied customer. I am! Without a doubt I would work with Valerie again in the future and can 1000% recommend her to others.
