Maria Kalafatich started as a listing agent for a waterfront property we were interested in; just a name on a sign. Little did we know, after reaching out, she would respond to us immediately, knowledgeably and on our time frame. Upon meeting at the property, we instantly felt a connection with her. She was personable and helpful to a degree that we’ve never experienced before. She went above and beyond in answering all of our questions and providing all the information we needed. In addition, she connected us with other resources in the community. This resulted in our finding a slip for our boat, something we were told would take years. Every step of the process of purchasing our property has been seamless and enjoyable. Maria is no longer a name on a sign, but has become family. We are truly grateful for Maria and recommend her without reservation!

Maria quickly develops a highly detailed plan and she is very efficient in its eventual completion. She is knowledgable, diligent, friendly, and accommodating throughout the process. She kept us informed at each step of the way. Maria is a very professional sales associate who takes the stress out of a complicated process. She is the best!

Maria is the ultimate professional. She was honest from the beginning about pricing in this tough market, but we agreed to try to make it the best it could be at a solid price. She hired a stager (who turned out to not be the greatest) but Maria was disappointed with her results too, and stepped right in and staged it herself. She did everything possible to connect with buyers and other realtors. She communicates with all parties effectively and answered my calls or texts very quickly. The buyer also commented to me that Maria was great to work with.
I chose Maria because I have worked with her before and I trust that she will do the best job for me. She did not disappoint! She was like my personal cheerleader throughout the process, keeping me going during the rough times and celebrating with me when the house was sold. I have recommended Maria to both family and friends with no hesitation. If you want a realtor who will walk with you and give you great advice, give Maria Kalafatich a try!

Maria went above and beyond in all aspects of this transaction. She was immediately responsive when I had questions or concerns. Her knowledge of real estate and local laws and policies was amazing. I felt she was fair to all concerned, representing me as well as possible but being honest and open with the seller. Lastly she was kind and thoughtful through the whole process.
I would recommend Maria to anyone interested in selling or buying a home as someone who is in the top of her field of real estate.

Maria understands what I am looking for and emails me immediately when something comes on the market. She is readily available to talk to me or show me possibilities. Since I'm wavering back and forth on buying a home or building, I've given her a real big job of helping me narrow down what makes sense and she has met the challenge well!

Maria was a pleasure to work with - she worked to understand our desires and needs, put together multiple offers and negotiated a favorable price and terms on the land we finally acquired. It was protracted process due to some issues on the seller's part, but Maria was there every step of the way!

She sold my last two homes. She really took an interest in me and my needs. I found this to be a very refreshing approach.
Later I purchased a lot that she found me. Just in time too. No more lots were available in this area!
Thank you Maria!

Maria literally changed our lives for the better. After years of struggling with the sale of our million dollar + home, she came in and took care of us. She was professional yet 'real'. We are so grateful for Maria and her expertise. We will definitely use Maria for any future purchases or sales.

I used Maria to help sell my folks house out on the Key Peninsula. It was a challenge due to many unforseen issues and I wanted to say Maria went way above and beyond to make sure the house sold and for a price we wanted. She was very professional and really cared about my elderly parents. I would 100% endorse her to anyone.

I have sold one home and bought another with Maria. She held my hand through both to get me the best price and conditions for the transactions. She goes way beyond normal service using Windermere resources, Facebook accounts, letters, postcards - anything to get the message out. She is responsive to clients and follows through on all parts of the sale or purchase. Maria is fun to work with and I will continue to rely on her for real estate needs. I recommend her to family and friends because I know they will have a positive experience with Maria as their agent!

Maria Kalafatich has been impressive in assisting us with acquiring our dream property. She understands our needs and has guided us with her knowledge and expertise. Her local connections (i.e., local lender, family custom home builder) have been so helpful to us and have been paramount in helping us to evaluate potential properties and respond quickly. In addition, she has been resourceful in providing suggestions for potential properties when the market has been so competitive. She’s a trustworthy professional that has gone above and beyond for us, and we’ve been pleased with her assistance.
