Great experience buying and selling with Raquel

Great experience buying and selling with Raquel. Extremely responsive and detail oriented. Handled every detail with great care and a true personal interest. She is not only my realtor, but also the broker for my sister and a great friend.

I am a first time homebuyer and I’ve got to say Raquel, Keila, Brenda, Yaritza and my realtor Ernest

I am a first time homebuyer and I’ve got to say Raquel, Keila, Brenda, Yaritza and my realtor Ernesto were phenomenal in assisting me with my home and the process to it. I couldn’t be more thankful for all of these individuals who worked day and night to make this happen for me! Thank you all again and I look forward to purchasing my future home with you all.

Raquel was our agent when my daughter and I purchased our home and again when we sold our home

Raquel was our agent when my daughter and I purchased our home and again when we sold our home. She is easy to work with, especially since my daughter no longer lives in Florida and all interactions between Raquel and my daughter took place via phone, text, and online signatures. She kept us informed of dates and times the house was being shown and provided us with comments she received from potential buyer's realtors, as well as bids made on the house. Her pricing negotiation's were top notch. We had a date by which we wanted to close and with Raquel's professionalism we closed 3 days earlier, which was perfect.Definitely recommend Raquel and her staff to anyone looking to buy or sell a house.

Raquel is The Best!

Raquel helped me purchase the home in 2018 and now helped me sell it. She was amazing both times! She explains everything and is honest and upfront. She has no problem answering all my texts and phone calls with questions. I’d recommend her to everyone!

Raquel did a wonderful job getting us the right house at the right price

Raquel did a wonderful job getting us the right house at the right price. She and her team are quick to respond to text, email, and phone calls. She went to bat for us when the seller wanted to negotiate. I would recommend Raquel to anyone who wants to buy a house in the Tampa Bay area. Thanks for all your help and hard work!

If a realtor communicates with you on her WEDDING day

If a realtor communicates with you on her WEDDING day.. yes you heard that right.. on her WEDDING day, you have the right realtor working for you! Raquel is personable and knowledgeable. She fights for you as her client. She knows the market and knows what to offer to get it accepted. In a market like today's you need someone knowledgeable, someone that will be ready to take action and someone that is aggressive to get the house bought/sold. I had a complicated closing and Raquel stood by me through the end and beyond. She was supportive, and did whatever she could to make the process smoother and easier for me. I would recommend Raquel to my family and friends, and will use her again in the future.

Very knowledgeable, very quick response when I text for something important and just asking a silly

Very knowledgeable, very quick response when I text for something important and just asking a silly question. Never had a realtor move as quickly as she did. very very on top of things. She ran me through every option I had. Made me more knowledgeable as well as making sure I was not screwed over knowing it would add more work for her and never charging me more for it. I absolutely love her as my realtor. Never will I go with any one else definitely highly recommend for

I have been looking for a home for more than 2 years

I have been looking for a home for more than 2 years. with the market that we are living in it was just not happening for me. I did go through several realtors that were very sweet and hard working but I guess it was just not what we needed at the moment my husband and I were not an easy couple, we both wanted different things and we had to compromise in one point we stopped looking for a bit and then out of the Blue Raquel Zapata comes into our live it did not take her no time at all. It seemed liked we opened and closed our eyes and WAAALLLLAAA!!! in les than 24 hours she worked her magic and we had got a YES. She moved fast as FLASH?! and around 28 days we did are closing. She did a phenomenal. I have to say she is bilingual so if you need a Spanish speaker realtor she can help. Thank you ! Gracias Raquel!
