A Real Estate Transaction Can Be
Stressful and Complicated

  • Michelle is a super nice person. She did a wonderful job selling my house. We didn't even have an open house - it sold before we could ever do an open house. She was very attentive and made certain I knew what was happening. Thank you so much Michelle.
  • Working with Randy towards the purchase of my retirement house in New Smyrna Beach was a rewarding experience. He was patient beyond compare and very knowledgeable about every step of the process.I would recommend him to anyone looking for a real estate professional who really has your needs in mind. In a year, he'll get the job of selling my current home in Winter Park - Linda E.
  • Michelle was absolutely fantastic. She went above and beyond to find the perfect house that met all of our needs. She helped to make the whole process smooth and helped us with any issues that we had.

  • We recently worked with Linda to secure a new tenant for our vacant office spaces.  Linda was great to work with and brought us a viable candidate in a very short amount of time.  She was very quick to respond to all of our questions and was very helpful with every step of the process; signing that prospective tenant to a lease.

I will continue to recommend her as I have since I met her in 2020 Yvethe Tyszka, Orlando

Randy definitely went above and beyond for us! - Judy & Rob H.

She has experience, a great personality and fun was fun to work with. My experience exceeded my expectations for sure!!!
  • Deborah was absolutely awesome. She literally had to drive from Casselberry all the way to Saint Cloud multiple times in a week to help us out with both selling our house and buying this house.
  • Debbie made the listing and sale of our home painless. She is an experienced Realtor and it shows!! She always takes her time to explain the details so there are never any surprises. Thank you again...
  • Craig has been the real estate agent for my family for many years and I wouldn't turn to anyone else to buy or sell a home in central Florida. He's the only agent I recommend because he's all I've known, and needed to know - each experience exceeds expectations with his extensive knowledge, his ability to anticipate roadblocks, and his quick, logical thinking. Craig gives you his complete attention; he's responsive, factual and trusting. He's incredibly protective of his clients - he's the guy you want on your team, without a doubt. In my family, he is family. Craig has sold/bought for my grandparents, my brother, my sister, my parents (twice, at least... maybe three times?) and two of my own properties. His nickname, our "Realtor for Life" was started by my mom and it's 100% true. We love Craig!
  • Craig helped me sell my mom's house after her passing. He was knowledgeable and provide names and numbers of appraisers, inspectors and handymen. My house sold in 2 days. I would recommend Craig to anyone looking to sell a property.
  • Our latest purchase of a home is our family's 7th buying/selling experience with Craig. Over many years, he has always proved to be extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of real estate, and able to anticipate and professionally handle any situation that might come up over the course of one or multiple transactions. For us, real estate has gotten more and more complicated over the years. Craig has remained the same pleasure to work with and has continued to make himself available, and to keep us in the loop, answering any question, no matter how large or small. Despite being professional and ethical, Craig really listens to his clients and is able to anticipate and navigate any real estate issue that could potentially get in the way of getting things done. Anyone looking for honesty, candor and a professional who makes things happen, should work with Craig Kesler. We have always had great experiences - and outcomes, working with Craig. We highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to work with a great guy, who happens to be really really good at helping his clients achieve their goals.
  • Craig was very knowledgeable of the areas and the housing and was very helpful. He kept in contact and replied to any questions in good time with detailed answers. The whole house searching and buying experience was made very pleasant by him.
  • Michelle is a super nice person. She did a wonderful job selling my house. We didn't even have an open house - it sold before we could do an open house. She was very attentive and made certain I knew what was happening. Thank you so much, Michelle. - Mary S.

  • Since 2004, Eric has been servicing our family with all of our real Estate needs. It does not matter what time of the day, or day of the week, he always makes sure to answer our questions promptly. Buying a house is not an easy decision, but with the expertise and knowledge of Eric, everything has been achieved without great effort. Overall, he always goes beyond our expectations! Camille Q.
  • Mr. Alonso is a fine real estate agent that we highly recommend because he knows well the Northern Florida Market and he is a pleasure to deal with. More than a sales agent Mr. Alonso is a consultant agent that first looks to understand our needs to then find quality listings close to our requirements. In the end we decided to move further South of Florida Coast to be closer to family, however if we decide to look further north, Mr. Alonso would be our preferred agent.
  • Michelle is Amazing, She belongs with us at Amazing Roofers, Inc.
  • Working with Craig was a pleasure and he made us feel as if we were his only client. He always kept in close contact with us through every step along the way and was diligent in coordinating the closings so that the proceeds from our sale would be available for our purchase. We always felt that he was working in our best interests, is reassuring in stressful times, and we would be quick to refer him. Steve and Elaine Gaines, Oviedo, FL
  • It is my pleasure to recommend Deborah Morgan-as a Real Estate agent for anyone looking for an agent who works hard and doesn’t lapse on her response to all of our concerns. Deborah was very diligent with our specific needs for renting our home. Deborah is very knowledgeable and talented with the current technology. She made excellent use of the databases to find us qualified tenants. She was on time with all the appointments and addressed all of our concerns to the clients and kept us up to date with all the information of each client. Deborah responded to all of our texts and phone messages. She shared her ideas and recommendations that helped us to make good decisions.Deborah was there for us from beginning to end. Throughout the whole process she handled the leasing contract and explained everything in detail. She managed to find us good tenants and followed through up to their move in day. We are very pleased to recommend Deborah Morgan to anyone looking for an excellent real estate agent.
  • If you need a realtor, look no further. We went to Laura when we wanted to sell our house. She was always pleasant and very easy to work with. We didn't have to worry about anything. After only two days on the market, we had a buyer with a full price offer. What a great job! Thanks, Laura. - Tim B.
  • Craig made the home buying process easy! He is so knowledgeable and helpful, and truly had our best interests at heart. We will call Craig for any future home buying or selling, and would recommend him to anyone looking for the same!
  • Judith Blanche is a well known real estate agent in our community, in her dealings with me she has been very responsible, reliable and professional, she also has giving me ideas to clear my mind in ways to maximize my money, so I can get a better house. I highly recommend her to any person who wants to purchase a house.
  • This agent was excellent. He was so helpful in our process of buying a house.
  • Very helpful, very friendly. he's just a great realtor, I would recommend Craig to everyone I know; he was great! thank's again Craig. Frank & Angie :)
  • Craig Kesler is the best of the best. He is a great agent, and more importantly a great guy. A good person to have on your side for both commercial and residential real estate.
  • Craig Kessler made our first time buying experience very enjoyable by taking the fear out of the whole process. We never felt pressured or that he was in it just for a commission check. He was very understanding of our needs and more than anything, patient. We have since highly recommended him to  our friends and family. They have used him and have been just as happy as we were. Without a doubt, we will work with him for our next home purchase.
  • Dominic took on the challenge of selling our 1/1 condo that was situated in an HOA that had met rental capacity which had a contract in 12 hours!!! He is also currently in the process of helping us find a home. This is our first real "home buying" experience and he has been nothing short of  amazing! He is extremely knowledgeable, explains everything to us step by step, very patience and has been very flexible. He even takes time to meet us on Sunday's because my husband and I have such opposite schedules! He's very personable, very honest with us and he truly has our best interest in mind. I could go on and on about how fabulous it has been to work with Dominic! We will definitely be contacting him for our future real estate needs as well as sending him referrals should anyone we know be looking to buy or sell a home. We truly could not have asked for a better realtor to help us find the perfect starter home!
  • Dominic is an excellent Realtor. He helped us sell our home and buy our current home. He was knowledgeable about the market as both a seller and buyer. The pricing of our home was spot on and sold very quickly. He had nice pictures taken for Zillow and our house saw activity immediately. He also  helped us get the best purchase price for our new home. He was attentive to our questions and was available to show us properties. If we buy or sell again, we would use Dominic!
  • Dominic was always attentive to our needs, no matter how trivial. He made the selling and buying experience as smooth as we could have expected. As first time sellers we were unsure of the process and Dominic was incredibly patient with all of our questions and was there to reassure us when  needed. We absolutely, undoubtedly would recommend Dominic to anyone needing a realtor in the area. Dominic will be our go to guy for all of our future real-estate needs.
  • From the first time we met Dominic he was always courteous and professional. Dominic was very well versed on the homes in our area and knew what we could realistically receive for the sale of our home. He negotiated extremely well with several different potential buyers during the process and sold  our house in a very timely manner. If I buy or sell a home in the future then Dominic will be my first choice as a realtor.
  • Dominic negotiated through a very complex process to make sure we had the outcome we desired. This was not a typical transaction, but he made sure both parties saw the big picture and succeeded.
  • I have used 5 realtors, buying 5 houses in my life time and Dominic by far was the best. He made the experience extremely stress free and I really felt he had our best interest in mine. He always pointed out the positives and negatives of each house and gave us recommendations on services and  contractors to use. What's even more impressive is that even after the closing he is more then willing and has support and has. Also his responsiveness is excellent. It was a real pleasure working with him.
  • Can't imagine working with any other realtor! We have had the pleasure of working with Dominic both as a buyer and seller. He is very knowledgeable and easy to communicate with. Everyone he recommended to assist us was also amazing!
  • Dominic is very knowledgeable of the markets and trends and was readily available to us as we were out of state, there time zones away. Having his skill and expertise really help the process of selling our home from a distance go as smoothly as possible.
  • Once again you did it for us Dominic!!! thanks so much for your dedication and professionalism. We could not have anyone better than you to take care of the selling of our property. We will be forever grateful. Don't you ever change! it is your personable and caring attitude that keep making us  come back to you. Thanks again:):):)

  • Eric Ortiz is not only extremely knowledgeable on his trade but he also knows so much about loan products. He is well connected to lenders, therefore his advice regarding my home loan was paramount in getting me to the closing table with the best product available. He kept me focus with his remarkable patience and optimism during my all entire dealing with several lenders/builders. ERIC found my beautiful home with sooooo many extras and on top of that he negotiated the price and I got me $5,000.00 in equity from the get go! Oh yes, the appraisal of my brand new home came back $5,000.00 (USD) over the purchase price. Eric is a true professional, extremely reliable, he pays attention to detail to the max and best of all is that Eric always returned my calls and emails promptly! Eric never minded how late or how many times I called him. I am very, very satisfied with Eric's skills and willingness in finding my dream home, the perfect home for me and my family. Eric became a great friend!!! DINORAH R.
