She was exceptional in every way possible. From her responsiveness to expertise- if she didn’t know the answer to a question about a property, she got back to me immediately. This process had some challenges that she handled with the utmost professionalism and grace. She ensured we were educated to understand the risks and terms of our contract. She went above and beyond during the entire process. We were out of state and she made this process so simple, which was comforting to know we had her guidance and support. In less than 30 days we went from looking to owning. We will always look to Valerie in the future and look forward to working with her again!

After months of dreaming, I finally decided to purchase a vacation home (condo) in Florida and Valerie made the whole process easy.. and fun! With being an out of state buyer, I needed to work with someone I trusted because I wasn't able to hop on a plane and view the place in person as soon as it hit the market. Valerie was so accommodating, knowledgeable, and most importantly trustworthy. I genuinely felt like I was in the best hands which was important to me given this was my first real estate purchase outside of my home state. A lot of agents, I feel, are very transactional and have a one and done mindset, but Valerie is a genuinely caring and honest person which is why she is so successful. 100% my forever Florida agent

She was very knowledgeable regarding the market and was a strong negotiator. She was great with all the details and needed follow up start to finish. And she is a very pleasant to work with. We highly recommend Valerie and we look forward to working with her in the future!

Valerie is certainly an expert in her market and a great negotiator, but she is also gracious, not pushy, and very accommodating. Most important, Valerie was honest and advocated for us, which is an extremely rare gift in such a competitive real estate market. She went out of her way to make us aware of historical flooding events in certain neighborhoods and other risks we wouldn't have known, she never pushed us into making a higher offer or doing anything we weren't comfortable with, and she negotiated for a credit after a solid inspection because she thought the house should be perfect when we moved in with our boys. Valerie is gem, and I would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase real estate in the St. Pete area.

for Valerie! (I'd give her 10 ? if I could!). From our initial call all the way to settlement - Val was an absolute pleasure to work with! She found us the PERFECT house, navigated and negotiated a lot of hurdles throughout the process, and answered every single call/text/email in no time. She knows the industry, she knows the FL market (including the beaches!), and most importantly - she knows how to get the deal done on the house you want! Seriously - Valerie is as good as they get!! I would recommend her to every family member, friend, etc. and be 100% confident they will be taken care of. Thanks for everything, Val!

She was responsive, friendly and helped us navigate all aspects of the transaction. She was able to answer all my questions—and refer me to local contacts along the way for mortgage, inspections, insurance, etc. She’s top notch and I’d recommend her to all family and friends!!
