“Mitzy has been such an eye opener and stress reliever. She took care of everything so quickly and diligently, she made us both feel so included and well informed. She is kind, knowledgeable, accommodating, patient and so much more! We had a rough experience and had to drop a real estate agent and called Century 21 and thank goodness we got Mitzy. She found us a house within 3 days of signing the documents to hire her. She explained what we could do to save us money but also got us the house. She made sure we were well informed on possibilities from her knowledge of the market. I cannot recommend her enough!!”

“Jennifer was very patient with selling our rental property and was of great help when we ran into situations and am sure we could not have handled them without her knowledge and understanding. She was very patient during the process and kept us encouraged during this time because of the stress involved. Thank you Jennifer for all you done and your expertise in handling the sale.”

“Our agent, Michael Diniz, was professional and extremely knowledgeable. Simply put, he's the best agent we've worked with. Selling our home had its challenges, but his persistence and urgency allowed our home to sell sooner than expected. I've used a few agents in the past, however, Michael is the only agent I'd refer to friends and family.”
