I could not have had a better agent / broker than Corey Ward! Disasters managed. Emotions contained. Stress reduced. Expectations exceeded! Corey managed unexpected issues with the property while I was out of town. Communicated with both myself and my neighbors, kept the HOA happy and went above and beyond when he provided on site inspection to ensure the workmen hired were truly performing as described until I could return. The entire process from listing through closing was explained in detail, reviewed when needed and never experienced a hiccup. I will definitely use Corey if I ever have to move again.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We could not have asked for a better realtor! From the beginning of our home-buying journey through closing, she went above and beyond for our family every step of the way. Her dedication, responsiveness, and genuine care made the entire experience exceptional. What truly sets her apart is that her support didn’t stop at closing. She continues to help us as we settle in and make our new house feel like home, which speaks volumes about the kind of person she is. She is, without a doubt, the best realtor we have ever worked with, and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. We started this journey looking for a realtor, and we came out of it with a beautiful new home and a friend for life. We are incredibly grateful for everything she has done for our family!

Working with James was an outstanding experience from start to finish. He helped us successfully sell our waterfront townhouse during an incredibly challenging time. After Hurricane Helene caused significant flooding, many buyers were understandably concerned about purchasing waterfront properties. Despite these challenges, he remained professional, knowledgeable, and persistent throughout the entire process. He provided honest advice, developed an effective marketing strategy, kept us informed every step of the way, and worked tirelessly to find the right buyer. His experience navigating a difficult market gave us confidence that we had the right person representing us. We truly appreciate his dedication, responsiveness, and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome. If you're looking for a real estate agent who is trustworthy, hardworking, and willing to go the extra mile, even in the most difficult circumstances, I highly recommend James.

Amanda was recommended to us by a family member in the area. When we first reached out to her, she got right back to us and was up front managing expectations moving forward with any purchase we made. From the beginning through the closing, she was very well organized, extremely knowledgeable, and knew exactly the ins and outs of our particulars situation. She had contacts for days to help handle any and all things we needed. She nailed walking us through every step, staying on top off all the professionals we would have to work with, giving us her unvarnished opinion about hoops and pitfalls of FL buying, and all in all just keeping us informed. She was ALWAYS available to discuss questions and concerns and returned our phone calls (not just texts messages) promptly, not days or weeks like other agents. If you ever need to buy or sell in this area of Tampa Bay, look no further. She is hands down the best you will find. If we ever buy again, I will be going to her without hesitation.

As first-time buyers, we came to Corey with a big ask. Not a starter home, but a generational family home near the city of St. Petersburg, with a pool, a fenced yard, a garage, and a neighborhood that just felt right. Corey and his wife Sylvie never flinched. We searched for over seven months. We went under contract with one of the very first homes Corey showed us, but the inspection came back with serious problems, and we walked away. What followed felt like 400 houses up and down Pinellas County, and through every trip Corey and Sylvie were right there step-in-step, hopeful and positive, never once wavering. And we found it. Our dream home, inside the city limits, hitting every checkbox. We feel genuinely confident investing in this place, and that's because Corey and Sylvie cut the forest floor in front of us the whole way. They made sure we always knew our options and our position with one house versus another, then guided us through offer and closing with ease. Corey is confident, outgoing, and ferociously on your side, with a thorough understanding of the real estate market and the local area. Not once were we left wondering or fearful about some unknown. Sylvie is a licensed agent too, and while she didn't have to be at our showings, she always was. Above and beyond. Their overlapping but different perspectives helped my wife and I feel sure about what we were seeing and how it fit our vision. I can't recommend Corey and Sylvie enough for anyone looking to buy or sell with efficiency and confidence.
