"We had Athena as our buyer’s agent looking in particular city. It was a pleasure working with her. We were new to the peninsula, and her knowledge proofed to be very valuable. From the moment we signed contract with her until the transaction was closed, she referred a great mortgage banker who provided extremely competitive package (fully-underwriter-approved loan qualification, 14-day escrow closing), monitored closely on properties that met our top-priority criterions, obtained critical reports that increased our negotiation power, and was very helpful collecting information to serve our needs. We were able to find our home with our desired features, within comfortable budget, and within the targeted timeframe. We would recommend Athena to those looking for an agent who works proactively for the clients."

" Athena was incredibly supportive throughout the entire process of selling our home. She kept us focused and informed, and provided guidance every step of the way. Athena never blinked when we told her how soon we wanted to place our house on the market. With only two weeks to prepare our home for the open house and acceptance of bids; Athena quickly pulled together a list of tasks and a schedule of contractors for us. It was a whirlwind of activity...we had our doubts we could get everything done on time. Athena kept us calm and on track, and offered honest advice and feedback at all times. With her help, our home was ready in time for the open house, and sold quickly. We are so grateful we had Athena by our side. Her warmth, professionalism, and experience made working with her an absolute pleasure...from beginning through close of escrow."

"Words that describe Athena: Smart, hard working, savvy, knowledgeable, fun, energetic, patient. We can't say enough good things about working with Athena. She knew every area we were looking at, helped us find the right homes and locations, and was easily our biggest asset in our home purchase. Athena walked us through the home buying process, prepared home tours and even previewed homes for us so that we could concentrate on finding the best home for us with the least amount of effort. She helped us find lenders, contractors, and not only had contacts for anything we needed, but actively used them to help us in our buying process. Even when finding a home and competing was challenging, Athena helped us persevere and win. She helped us write competitive, smart, professional offers that ultimately got us an amazing house at the best price and terms! Athena will be your friend, real estate mentor, and advocate.

"As most military members will tell you, one of the most stressful aspects of our careers is the constant moving. I got lucky and found myself in a four year tour down in beautiful South Florida. With the rental market how it currently is, buying a home was something my wife and I put a lot of thought into. We searched and searched and searched for "the perfect home." While we were searching for our dream home, we rented a beautiful home in west Pembroke Pines and we had the pleasure of living a few doors down from Athena. On a walk around the neighborhood, my daughters and I stopped and talked with Athena for a little bit and her warm personality and contagious smile made me 100% sure I wanted her to represent us on our journey to becoming Florida home owners. After setting us up to get emails from MLS, Athena was ALWAYS available to show us places we were interested in. Her expertise in all matters regarding the home buying process was priceless and the way she cared for our wants and"

"If you are looking for someone that has your interest during the sale of your home she is the one. Athena knows the market and how to sale your home and get a bidding war started. The day our house hit the market it crashed the server that was hosting our listing because of the number of people looking at the listing. In three days she sold our house with three offer to choose from. If you are looking for a true professional in Real Estate, Athena is a Million Dollar Listing Agent. Mark W. Nanninga"
