“David is truly a professional and dedicated to his trade. Extremely strong communication and answered all concerns in a timely fashion.

“It was a pleasure working with Catherine to sell our house. She brought more offers (3) in 4 months than a previous realtor we had worked with (0) for 9 months. Catherine is very knowledgeable, very pleasant, very helpful and extremely hardworking. All her efforts paid off for us within the short time we gave her.”
“I would recommend Kimberly to anyone trying to sell a high-priced home. She is knowledgeable about the market and was able to sell our house in 2 weeks, even though it had previously sat on the market for 9 months pre-COVID. Her customer service is excellent, and she is helpful with questions and contacts throughout the selling process.”
“Chris was a breath of fresh air. He was attentive, knowledgeable and overall he communicated effectively keeping me abreast of all feedback received while comparing current market trends each week. I would highly recommend him. He sold our home within 30 days which was an added bonus. Would I use him again? ABSOLUTELY. Thanks Chris”
“My name is Kenneth Martin my family and I had a really bad experience with a different real estate agent while trying to find a house and we stumbled upon Cassandra through days of research and reading every review on every realtor on the Internet and it was a blessing we closed on a house in two weeks and Cassandra was one of the best thing that happened to my family.”
“A Heartfelt Recommendation for Tony Fuentes, Realtor in Kissimmee, Florida! I recently had the pleasure of working with Tony Fuentes, and I can't express enough how remarkable my experience was! From the moment I reached out, Tony was quick to respond, returning my call in less than 30 minutes. His knowledge of the real estate market is awe-inspiring, and his enthusiasm for helping me get everything in order made the process feel effortless. What stood out most was that Tony never pressured me to sign anything. Instead, he provided valuable referrals to help get my villa ready for sale. In less than thirty days, my house was beautifully painted, thoroughly cleaned, and all those little fixes were taken care of. I was amazed at how smoothly everything went, especially considering I didn’t even live in the state! Thanks to Tony’s expertise, I was able to sign my paperwork remotely with a notary, making the entire experience incredibly convenient. He truly goes above and beyond!”

“Working with David Lovitch to sell my home was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. His professionalism, market expertise, and attention to detail truly set him apart. From the moment we listed, David developed a smart pricing strategy, arranged beautiful marketing materials, and coordinated every showing with care and precision. What impressed me most was David’s communication — I always knew what was happening, and he provided honest, insightful advice every step of the way. The negotiation process was handled flawlessly, and he secured an excellent offer that exceeded my expectations. Thanks to David, the entire selling experience was smooth, stress-free, and successful. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent — I’d highly recommend David Lovitch to anyone looking to sell their home with confidence and ease.”
“Erika was the key to getting this house sold. Without her help and experience the wonderful outome would not have been achieved. Erika was knowledgeable, professional, friendly and went above and beyond to help with this property sale. You would benefit from Erika's help on any property purchase or sale!”
“Your help was very valuable for the purchase of the house”
“I highly recommend Rich Noto for new home construction. He was a fantastic advocate throughout my build, especially since I was relocating from Pennsylvania to Florida. Living states away, he sent detailed videos of construction progress and found defects during various inspections. His communication and availability far exceeded my expectations. Rich has a keen eye for potential issues and a deep understanding of building codes that many other agents, and even some inspectors, might miss. He truly knows the critical phases of construction, from the foundation on, and when to schedule inspections. He understands the tricks builders use to hide problems and is a fierce advocate for his clients. I have no doubt he saved me from future headaches. He is an invaluable resource who ensured I ended up with a high-quality home.”
“Thank you Valentina for everything you did to help us find our new home. We really appreciate your patience, expertise, and responsiveness every step of the way throughout the entire process. We especially value how you always responded to our questions so quickly, helped us navigate the complex paperwork, found the perfect neighborhood for us. You made the whole process feel so much easier and less stressful. It's been a pleasure working with you, and we’re so glad we had you on my corner. We will not hesitate to refer to friends or family your way when they're ready to buy or sell. Thank you again for your dedication and hard work.”
