EMPIRE NETWORK REALTY

I have been a member of the professional community in Florida since 2009, serving as an educator in secondary education and now in Real Estate. My unique blend of endearing social interactions and attention to detail make me an excellent choice for anyone who wants a Realtor that is dedicated to getting the results that they deserve. Striving to form an individual relationship with each client, I listen carefully and design a game plan that focuses on YOUR needs. Whether you are selling a property, buying your dream home, or investing in real estate, I will consistently provide you with high levels of communication every step of the way. The result will be a memorable and seamless real estate transaction experience. When you choose me as your realtor, you can be confident that every aspect of your experience will be as stress-free and enjoyable as possible! These are some of the most important decisions you will make in your life, and having someone who is honest and trustworthy is so important! Offering you up to date information based on the current market conditionsI, I pride myself on good communication, always keeping in touch with you every step of the way. If you are looking to build a new home, let me serve as your liaison between you and the builder! I will take you to the different builders in the area and tour the model homes. By bringing you to the builder, I can then, at no cost to you, lead you through the building process, from the moment you pick out all the features, to the final walkthrough. As the house is being constructed, I am doing "unannounced" walk-throughs of the property to ensure the builder is holding up their end of the bargain and adding the features you picked out. If anything is out of place, after letting you know, I communicate with the builder directly to resolve the problem. By choosing me to help you with your new construction, you can just sit back and enjoy the amazing experience of having your dream home built to your exact specifications. For every listing, I hire a professional videographer to take videos and photos, including drone footage. We utilize the full scope of tools available to us when listing your house in the MLS, including using 50 photos on your listing, and creating a link to a custom promo video. This is a service I provide at no cost to my sellers. Don't settle for a realtor that just takes snapshots of your home with their cell phone! Your listed property deserves the best representation it can get. Call me today to let me go to work for you!
