Testimonials
There are many things I can say about the high quality of service I provide to my home seller and home buyer clients, but probably none would be as credible as testimonials from some of my recent clients themselves.
So please take a moment to read the following testimonials. I hope they indicate my experience and integrity, as well as make it clear how much I enjoy helping people with their real estate needs.
I would be happy to email you additional testimonials if you are interested.

“We just wanted to Thank You for selling our house so quickly! As you know we had every realtor in Pinellas County knocking at our door. They were all nice to us, until they realized that we were going to try to sell the house ourselves. You were different! You were genuinely interested in helping us sell our home, and we appreciated that. We know that with a personality like yours, and your sincere concern for your clients needs, you will be successful in your career…”
P. Eckert, Florida
…“Your tips on how to best present what we wished to sell – our home- were invaluable. Once we selected you as our realtor I never felt uncomfortable or uninformed…..The sales brochure you prepared with such beautiful pictures and description was most professionally done – and certainly served the purpose. You acquired a qualified buyer after only three days on the market!”
J. Alderman, Florida
“My family tried unsuccessfully to sell Mom’s condo on our own…we found out quickly, it isn’t easy selling real estate!!! It also takes a lot of patience and knowledge. My brothers wife recommended Valerie…little did we know that Valerie would be so professional, personable, and determined to sell!!!! We closed on our Moms condo… although it was an emotional experience for us, we took comfort in knowing Valerie held our best interests in mind.”
E. Stafford, Florida
…“We knew that we could count on Valerie to share her thoughts with us and, most important, LISTEN to what we wanted…. There were times we were frustrated and depressed … but Valerie worked very hard on helping us think things through. It worked, and we found what we wanted and purchased it.”
