Exceptional Living Starts Here.
Hi, I'm Ami Rivera, a Broker Associate and REALTOR® with Smith & Associates Real Estate. I proudly serve buyers and sellers throughout Wesley Chapel, Tampa Bay, Pasco County, and surrounding Central Florida communities.
My goal is simple: to provide exceptional service while making sure my clients feel educated, empowered, and supported throughout every step of their real estate journey.
Buying or selling a home is a major decision, and I believe you deserve more than someone who simply opens doors or lists your property. You deserve an advocate, a strategist, a skilled negotiator, and someone who genuinely listens to what matters most to you.
I am honored to be recognized among the top 1% of real estate agents nationally and locally and as a Tampa Bay Real Producers Top 500 Agent. While those accomplishments are meaningful, what matters most to me is the trust my clients place in me and the relationships we build along the way.
Before real estate, I earned a graduate degree in Neuroscience from Drexel University College of Medicine and spent 10 years working in professional sports. When the COVID-19 pandemic changed the world of professional sports, I returned to academia and served as an adjunct professor in Biology at the University of South Florida.
People often ask how a background in neuroscience translates into real estate. The answer is that it has shaped how I approach nearly everything I do. I am analytical, detail-oriented, strategic, goal-driven, and focused on helping people make confident decisions. My experience in professional sports also taught me the importance of preparation, communication, teamwork, and performing under pressure.
Today, I bring those skills to every client relationship and every transaction.
My family and I proudly call Wesley Chapel home, and being part of this community is important to me. I believe in giving back and supporting the place where we live and work. I am actively involved with Life Church in Wesley Chapel and donate a portion of each closing toward its efforts to support the local community.
Whether you are buying your first home, selling and moving into your next chapter, relocating to the Tampa Bay area, or simply exploring your options, I would be honored to help.
My hope is that our relationship does not end at the closing table. I want to be a trusted real estate resource for you, your family, and the people you care about for years to come.
