Norma helped us market and sell our condo on Longboat Key. The process from start to finish was professional, well thought through and expertly managed. Norma was proactive in terms of marketing ideas, she spent valuable time up front getting to know what we were looking for and was realistic with us about what we could expect. Her local knowledge and wide network helped quickly gather potential clients and the process from offer to close was helped by her guidance and counsel. Great Job Norma and thanks!!
