Having worked with other agents, I was beginning to think all they cared about was closing on a home. Manuela changed my perspective and assured that the only homes she came to me with were homes that I would enjoy. She took into account all the factors I gave her and not once did she send me a suggestion that was outside of my scope. She was always available to answer questions at any time of day and was honest and to the point. She would not sugar coat anything and would readily give her opinion when I asked for it. I would highly recommend Manuela if not for being one of the most knowledgeable agents then simply because she catered to me as if she was a friend looking out for me rather than an actual agent. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home.

We chose Manuela Braun-Hendrickson to sell our vacation home in Clearwater earlier this year and she was outstanding. In 1996 when we bought this house she was the selling real estate agent of this property and impressed us, precisely because the communcation in German/English and the fast processing during our short vacation was flawless. Without a question we asked Manuela again when we wanted to sell our house. Especially notable is the long distance cooperation. She managed everthing locally when we were in Germany. One advantage is that Manuale Braun-Hendrickson is fluent in German. She spent hours answering our questions and providing objective data, helped with translation of formal papers, made the listing and all inspections before and with interested buyers. She arranged everthing (from the start to the closing process) with the aid of traditional technology. All in all we would like to emphasise her performance and commitment during the whole selling process. When we saw our listing we were more than happy. Her hard work and knowledge of what it takes to sell a home really paid off. Manuale Braun-Hendrickson is highly recommended and we would not choose anyone else for properties in future! She is professional, knowledgeable, polite, patient, honest, caring and much more - Definitely excellent to work with in all ways.

Buying a home in Florida today is a horrifying experience. My wife and I just completed it. It's chaotic, non-sensical in many cases and a root canal visit to your dentist might be more pleasant. Fortunately, having extensive experience in business and understanding the importance of having the right person for the right job, our first task was to find a realtor who could act on our behalf, which was 1200 miles away. I interviewed over a half dozen agents or more. Manuela called me when it was past 9PM as soon as I sent word I was searching. She was passionate, honest, sincere and genuine. She was also experienced, listened to my concerns and answered my questions without hesitation. I did a second set of interviews with a slightly less number but again she stood out. You can only hire an agent if you can gain a sense of trust and Manuela did that for us. But the hard part was ahead of us. We were a team, Manuela and her sales associate Marcia, who is equally awesome worked hand in hand with us to identify our needs and then the areas. Every day, new listings would come up and all of us were searching while Marcia and/or Manuela would visit properties and FaceTime with us if they appeared satisfactory. This went on for weeks. We lost a bid but got back in the saddle the next day. We narrowed down the area and eventually found what we were looking for. Manuela headed the negotiation brilliantly and also found inspectors for us. She found specialists for the pool, the roof, and the plumbing. She did everything! Marcia worked with the Title Company and our banker to make sure everything went to schedule. They even checked on the residence while in contract review. They never made any decisions without us and that's important. We knew we were kept informed of any potential mishap. If you are buying or selling a property in Tampa, you would be doing yourself an enormous disservice if you didn't talk to Manuela Hendrickson!

5 Star experience filled with true professionalism. One of the most important competencies for professionals is communication (frequency, responsiveness, availability, clarity, and attention to details) and Manuela displayed that so well throughout the entire buying and selling process. Her knowledge of the St. Pete area was spot on and she was able to answer all of our questions. We are truly proud to call Manuela our Relator, but even more proud to call Manuela our friend.

Manuela is a true professional and did all the homework on my condo to make sure that I received true value. She was at my side the whole time and I now consider her a friend. I will recommend Manuela to any of my friends as a first rate and honest realtor

From start to finish Manuela was nothing short of phenomenal. Her years of expertise show, and her understanding of the market guided us in a proccess we knew little about. She was always available for questions and was right on top of it whenever we had a house in mind that we wanted to look at. I could not have asked for a better agent or a better first time homebuying experience.

Manuela is a professional agent and makes sure her clients understand what’s going on at all times. Fun to be with!!!

Buying a house from 2,200 miles away is no easy task. We were introduced to Manuela by our Las Vegas realtor. From the very beginning, Manuela always made herself easy to contact, which can be a challenge when dealing with a 3-time-zone difference. We picked a house via the web and Manuela immediately went to the property to give us a virtual tour. She answered all of my questions and we made the offer. Thanks to her, she coordinated all of the inspections and utilities since we could not be on site. We really appreciate Manuela answering the phone and texts quickly and often at awkward times.

Was a long process but was glad to have someone like Manuela on my side for my purchase of my new home. Her knowledge and experience was helpful in making sure everything was complete.

Manuela’s experience and knowledge in this field exceeded my expectations. It was a true pleasure working with her. From the decision to list it she was supportive caring and determined to make sure my desires were met.. Thank you

Manuela is without question the most knowledgeable real estate professional I have ever worked with. I’ve bought several homes over the last 40 years but working with her was terrific. She responds quickly and stands alone among others. She’s simply the best!
