Exceeded Every Expectation

I had the pleasure of working with Mario to sell my home, and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. He is a fantastic real estate professional who went above and beyond in every element of the home-selling process. Mario demonstrated an amazing awareness of the local market dynamics during our initial session. He conducted an analysis, providing valuable insights into pricing, market trends, and effective strategies for selling my property. This made all the difference when competing with other properties in the area, his marketing plan included professional photography, online promotion, and open houses. The result was a high level of visibility and interest in my property, ultimately leading to a quick and successful sale. Throughout the process, Mario demonstrated excellent communication skills. He kept me informed at every step, promptly updating me on showings, feedback from potential buyers, and any developments in the negotiation process. This was extremely needed since I had already moved to another state and needed the feedback to be at ease. This transparency and responsiveness created a sense of trust and confidence, making the entire experience stress-free. Mario's cheerful and personal approach, in addition to his professional ability, made the selling process enjoyable. He is not just a professional realtor, but also a joy to deal with. Mario comes highly recommended by me to anyone searching for a real estate agent who goes above and beyond to provide great outcomes. Thank you for your hard work, competence, and excellent service in selling my house, Mario.

We were very impressed working with Mario. His communication and professionalism was on point!

From our first contact with Mario we quickly identified he was the right agent to work with. He's reliable, trust worthy and always on time! When it came to having the house appraised, inspected and final walk-thru, Mario was there making sure everything went well. Mario has a great team he works with and readily available. One major plus Mario has, is great communication. Always responsive, and always available to answer your questions. You cannot go wrong working with Mario.

Mario made this process easy and amazing. He was honest and by us following his insights we got much more over what we originally were looking for. He is my first thought when we buy again in Tampa!

Unmatched professionalism

Mario made our home purchase the easiest process possible! Even with a short turnaround for finding and closing on a home, Mario went above and beyond to ensure timely and quality options for my family and me. I highly recommend him for all home purchases and he is extremely military friendly!

The Best Agent You’ll Ever Meet

The Best Agent You’ll Ever Meet

Mario was extremely professional the entire time I worked with him. He is extremely knowledgeable in his craft. He was always willing to share information to educate current clients, future clients, or those interested in real estate as a whole. He is very experienced and often gave contacts to cleaning services, lenders, insurance companies, etc. He was very timely and never missed any deadlines. We were able to close on our home more than a week early, and go through the entire home purchasing process in about a month. This include touring many homes in different areas all over Tampa. He is very friendly and is overall someone you can fully confide in no matter if you’re selling or buying. He was always a message/phone call away and sat with me throughout the process to ensure I was well taken care of. This included signing paperwork, negotiating, scheduling tours, and coordinating with other parties. Mario is also a military veteran coming from a very highly-skilled background. He brings that same drive to real estate and will get it done with absolutely no excuses. I would highly recommend him to be your agent, so look no further!

Perfect Agent. 100% Would Recommend!

Mario has a superior work ethic. His motivation to ensuring his customers are taken care of is second to none. He put us first every single time, and his dedication to selling our home put our mind at ease during these stressful times where you have your mind being pulled in a thousand other directions. If I ever moved back to Florida, I would definitely call Mario again.

Hands down THE BEST!!

Hands down THE BEST!!

We met Mario at an open house for a home we were interested in. We made an offer on that home but our offer was not selected. However, after making a connection with Mario, we knew we wanted him to be a part of our home buying journey. He understood exactly what we were looking for and our sense of urgency since we also had our first baby on the way. Weekend showings were efficient and enjoyable knowing that we were in good hands with someone who really wanted to see us find our perfect home for our growing family. After just a few showings, we fell in love with a home that we thought was a little out of our price range. Because of Mario’s optimistic approach and skillful negotiation guidance, our offer was not only accepted but we also got an amazing home at an even better value. The perfect place to bring our daughter home to. Since the purchase of our home Mario has become a dear friend of ours and we will without a doubt use him for future purchases and recommend him to our family and friends.

Personalized Attention

Mario took time to get to know both me and my husband personally. He learned our styles and wishlist for our new home. He also brought up many considerations for our new home based on our current and future needs. I appreciate how dedicated he was to us finding our perfect place. He was continuously an advocate and represented us throughout the entire process, even now as the house is being built. 10/10 would recommend Mario to all of my friends and family.

Worlds Greatest Realtor

Worlds Greatest Realtor

Mario Banales has been our realtor from buying our property in 2020 to selling it this year, and each time has been beyond expectations. Not only is Mario professional and knowledgeable, but he’s also the type of realtor that can make even stressful points of the process feel smooth. I’m naturally someone who worries about everything and needs to know what’s happening every step of the way, and he was always one step ahead so that we didn’t even have a chance to begin worrying about any part of buying and selling. His work ethic is incredible. He was always on top of each step in the process, and if we ever had questions or concerns he did what he could to solve them immediately. He has a great team behind him including loan officers, handymen, cleaners, stagers, photographers, etc.. that also made buying and selling our property seem so effortless. He was able to get our property prepared to be on the market, create a beautiful listing, get multiple offers, and get us to closing in less than a month which was just fantastic and relieved so much stress of potentially having the process drag on. Theses no better words than to outright say Mario has been so amazing to work with, and if we (or anyone we can refer to him) ever need a realtor in the future he will forever be out #1 choice.
