"I can't thank you enough for your professionalism, expertise, and hard work in helping me sell my home. I am an international owner and found it difficult finding a good realtor. Your name was passed onto me through a close friend who had used you before. They highly recommended you and I'm so glad they did. There were so many issues and one of them was that I could not be there from start to finish in selling my home but you were amazing! You took care of all the details, worked around the clock and best of all, you sold it at a great price and very quickly. It showed that your years of experience in this market really came into play. Your knowledge of the neighborhoods, home construction, and attention to detail was by far, first class. Cindy, you are a true professional and I'm so glad that I met you and used you as my agent." Edward C. Madeiros - BERMUDA
It was a privilege to have Ms. Cindy O"Hara as our real estate agent. It was pure luck that we had met Ms. O'Hara on our third trip to Port Charlotte where we were looking for a property. In less than 24 hours, after we told her what we were looking for, she came up with dozens of properties matching our wish list. We were amazed at how motivated and knowledgeable she was, and how determined to find the home we wanted. From the beginning, we felt that she was on our side. She took the time to educated us in regard to what to look for in a property, and what should it be avoided in order to get the best for our money. Her determination to find that unique property that would meet our criteria was above our expectation. Our experience with Ms. O'Hara was an excellent one, and we think that anyone looking to buy or to sell a property would have a privilege to be assisted by her." Constanta and Ioan - St. Louis, MO
