About Inna
FUN FACT: I speak English, Ukrainian and Russian! I live in Lakeland with my kid, my husband, my mom and the weirdest looking (but cutest) cat in the world - Yoda. I came to the US over 14 years ago from Ukraine to pursue the 'American Dream', right after I received my Bachelors Degree in Business Administration. Initially, I envisioned continuing a career in corporate America, but I fell in love and my found passion in family life... and I needed a job that would allow me to be a full-time mom while still being able to put to use all of my professional skills. I absolutely love connecting with new people. I love what I do, because it allows me to balance my family life and fully engage with my clients when helping them to find their dream home - and helping them to realize the full potential of any given property!

Bought a Single Family home in 2025 in Plant city, FL

Stephen was a pleasure to work with. He was very knowledgeable. He was timely in responding to us. He was never impatient, always willing to go the extra mile. I was very indecisive at times and he always assured me that he was there to help us find the right fit in a home we would be satisfied with. When we needed to meet time lines he was there making sure we met them, making sure all the questions were answered. We will be selling a property next year and we will be reaching out to Stephen for his help in doing so. Thank you Stephen for all your help.

Stephen has been the best realtor I have ever worked with

Stephen has been the best realtor I have ever worked with. Consistently provided updates, got me locked into the price I was looking for and truly made me feel that he had my best interest in mind! This was the easiest and most stress free buying experience I have had. He did all the leg work to make sure everything was set up and ready for closing he also did the leg work to make sure I had all of the utility information for my new home. He's the best and Thank you so much Stephen!

Stephen was knowledgeable and professional in all areas to accomplish the sale of my property in rec

Stephen was knowledgeable and professional in all areas to accomplish the sale of my property in record time in a somewhat difficult housing market. You won’t be disappointed choosing him, he keeps you informed at all times and advisesyou with your best interests in mind. Plus he always calls you back. Some realtors forget you after they get a listing. Stephen is there through the closing!
