Meet Verónica Manes, a dedicated real estate professional known for her integrity, expertise, and genuine approach to client relationships. Originally from New Jersey, Verónica's path has taken her through Annapolis, Spain, and Sicily before settling along Florida’s Gulf Coast in 2016. Her time living abroad has given her a global perspective and an intuitive understanding of people from all walks of life — qualities that enhance every real estate journey she guides.
Verónica holds respected industry designations, including Certified International Property Specialist (CIPS), Certified Waterfront Specialist (CWS), Commitment to Excellence (C2EX), e-PRO® (advanced digital marketing strategies and technology), and LeadingRE Relocation and Marketing Specialist certifications (LRS, LMS).

Prior to real estate, Verónica built a 17-year career in banking and finance — from mortgage operations at Chase Home Finance to private banking with Wells Fargo, and insurance sales at Allstate. This strong financial foundation gives her clients a valuable edge, especially when navigating complex deals and negotiations.
Fluent in English and Spanish, and conversational in Italian, Verónica connects easily with a diverse range of clients. A devoted mother who re-entered the workforce after raising her children, she brings compassion, resilience, and determination to everything she does.
Now proudly serving with Michael Saunders & Company, Verónica is passionate about helping buyers, sellers, and investors make informed decisions with confidence. Whether you're looking for your forever home, a vacation getaway, or your next investment, you can count on Verónica to bring clarity, warmth, expertise, integrity, and a global perspective to every step of the process.
