What do Clients Say?

Tonja listened to what we were interested in and put together a group of homes for us to see. She shared with us what she thot we could offer for various homes after we had viewed them. Walking out of a home that had JUST come on the market we knew we wanted to put an offer on she made a couple of suggestions and then immediately called the listing agent. We got the documents ready that afternoon and by the next day our offer was accepted. Since we were out of town and only there for a week she arranged to have the inspection while we were in town so that we could be there and also worked closely with our mortgage broker to make sure we had everything turned in that we needed. She was our representative at the closing and took care of keys. She had our best interest in mind throughout the whole process.

We recently purchased a condo through Tonja and it was a fantastic experience! It was a true pleasure to come across and Realtor as responsive and enthusiastic as Tonja. She walked us through every step of the process and even assisted my wife with the closing as I was unable to attend. I would highly recomend Tonja for all of your real estate needs. You will not be disappointed. A++++

Tonja is an outstanding buyer’s agent. My first hint that she was above and beyond your average realtor was her responsiveness. She responded to my initial email within five (5) minutes. Her timeliness and communication (by email and phone) continued throughout the whole process of purchasing my home. She also exhibited an above average knowledge and expertise of the communities and the current real estate market I was working within. These combined with her patience and work ethic resulted in my closing on a home in a community I never dreamed of living in at the price point I had established.

We found Tonja to be very honest, flexible, professional and HUMAN..Tonja was very clear in describing each home ,it's strengths and weaknesses and applied these ideas specifically to our particular home buying goals.She offered us a breadth of choices and allowed us to make our own decisions vs. directly us into a "quick commission" bad choice. She knew the marketplace and all the support organizations in Florida to facilitate the closing. Tonja was also very accessible and responsive to any media input ( email, text or cell)..Lastly, I'd say she was genuinely happy for us finding the home we had hoped to find..

After hiring an agent who simply wouldn't listen to my concerns, wants and needs, and having to go through the process of being released from obligation under her contract, I considered myself blessed to haveI found Tonja. Tonja LISTENS to her clients.I could not have asked for a better person to handle the sale of my villa. Tonja is extremely knowledgeable about the area, so she will get you the best price possible. She is now not only my real estate agent, but she is now my friend. You will feel like you have a trusted relative selling your home if you choose to utilize her expertise.Thank you, Tonja. I could not have gotten through this process without you. I sure wish you had your license in Georgia to sell my fiance's home and find us a new one!
