Kimberlie helped us through our first home buying experience like no other! After using an escalation clause to help us outbid 5 other offers, she made the closing period very stress free and was super patient in answering all our questions. I highly recommend her!!!

Meeting Kimberlie was nothing short of serendipitous. My husband and I had started our search sans realtor. After attending several open houses, the last one was hosted by Kimberlie. While we lost the bid war for that house, we felt we had found our realtor! Kimberlie is down-to-earth, fun, knowledgeable AND professional. Even throughout the closing, she made it all almost too easy. We never felt any pressure from her. I could not have asked for a better experience and would recommend her without hesitation. My husband and I are extremely grateful for Kimberlie.

Melissa was wonderful to work with & very knowledgeable of our surrounding areas. We looked at condos to use a a vacation retreat for us & a place for my parents to use in the winter. Our target areas were from Sarasota down to Venice, & we could not be happier with our purchase! She listened to what we wanted & showed us probably close to 30 properties. We even went under contract with a condo that we ended up backing out of. Nothing ruffled her or upset her. She continued to be patient with us & worked with us to find the perfect place. I highly recommend her!

Kimberlie was a patient trooper for over a year as my wife and I visited neighborhood after neighborhood. Her expert knowledge of not only RE but rehab landscape and just about any questions we had was very helpful. She has excellent contacts in the manatee county area to get information on just about anything. I will recommend her to anyone that is looking at real estate either buying or selling in the area.

Melissa made home selling and buying a breeze. We were under contract within a week on our property, and over listing price! She was a true advocate when it came to finding our dream home as well. An older home with character that had been updated wasn't an easy find in this trending market! As soon as one hit the market she had us in it within hours! Not only did she get us the best price on our sale, she also negotiated a low offer on our new home! From packing to financing, and everything in between she made sure we had all of the answers and help we needed. We've found our forever realtor and our dream home!
