“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!”

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 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!”

“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.”
“Very efficient, personable and professional. Went above and beyond to help sell the home.”
“I had the pleasure of working with Claudia Garzón as my realtor, and I couldn't be more satisfied with her work. From the very beginning, she showed a high level of professionalism, responsibility, and an inspiring motivation that made the entire process much smoother and more manageable. Claudia has an exceptional ability to solve any issues that may arise, always finding quick and effective solutions. Her experience and dedication made a real difference at every stage of the transaction. I highly recommend her with complete confidence. Thank you, Claudia, for your outstanding work!”
“Patty is a pleasure to work with. Florida was not a market that I had experience with, but Patty's knowledge and expertise put me at ease from our first Zoom meeting. She is very personable, and has a great attention to detail which I really appreciate. Patty would go the extra mile to perform any research necessary to address my questions or concerns. It is no surprise she is a leader in her market. I would definitely look forward to work with Patty again.”

“Sam sheen realty was FANTASTIC !! I COULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR BETTER AGENTS”
“Elsie was very knowledgeable, professional and worked with us with our best interest in mind. She facilitated all the process contacting the broker, inspectors, etc and kept us posted at all time. Working with her, instead of an agent trying to make a comission, we felt like a very close friend or a family member was taking care and looking after us. We have purchased multiple properties in the past and never had an experience even close to this one. She went out of her way to help us and we are very grafetul for that. Can't recommend Elsie high enough, expect excellence!”

However, in recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be rising. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this February.
