About this pro
My service stands out because I'm client motivated, not money motivated! It's all about the client and getting the job done right the first time. Someone needs to protect the client. That's how I stand out! Making sure that they're not taken advantage of by others.
I enjoy making my clients dreams of home ownership come true. For me, it's about them, not the money. If you do good for others, the money usually follows. The client is the most important part of my business. My prayer to GOD everyday is, "please send me someone who needs my help, my expertise and my protection. In Jesus Name, Amen."

Gaff's Realty Company is unlike the other Real Estate Companies out there. Their agents really take the time to listen to their customer(s) needs and concerns. Not being a National Firm has kept them out of the spotlight and has catapulted them to be one of the top Real Estate Companies in Volusia County. Their agents are very well versed and qualified in the Real estate industry, have many years of experience under their belts and will get the job done right the first time benefiting the client tremendously. Plus they do not charge their customers / client(s) fee's. By not having a transaction or a junk fee, more people trust and rely on them for their honesty and expertise to finish the job at hand and make for a smooth transaction everytime.
FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I make sure that my clients are pre-approved for a mortgage so that they know how much they can afford and no time is wasted getting them what they desire. Once that step is completed, we're off and running to see homes in thier price range, preferred area and school district. I'm in touch with them daily to make sure that they have everything that they need for a smooth trasnaction.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have had 216 hours of education, I've been a licensed Realtor for the past 22years and take required education by the State every 2 years to keep my Real estate license current and active! I also have staging experience where I stage the home to make it look it's best. You never get a 2nd chance to make a 1st impression.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your services? If so, please share the details here.
When you work for a buyer, the Seller pays the buyers agent brokers commission. When you work with a seller, then it's the seller who pays both the buyers agent and the sellers agent the commission. Our agency has a minumum of 6% for listing a home.
How did you get started in this business?
My Father got me started in the Real Estate business 22 years ago. I'll never forget the look on his face when I told him that I passed my Real estate test, Both he and I cried with tears of joy! My Dad was a Broker for 35 years and every life that he touched meant something to him as it does to me. It's not about the money. It's about the customer service and the smiles on the faces when the transaction closes. I've been doing for a long time all through word of mouth which is the best form of advertising. All of my clients turn into a part of my family. Let's just say I have a huge Italian family. The reviews on Realtor.com and Zillow.com are also amazing. To leave a lasting impression on someone who appreciates what you did for them will always stay with me.

Buyers, sellers, investors, vacationers, renters, 1st time home buyers, wholesalers, millionaires, high end luxury clients and commercial clients.
