"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"

" 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.
