Thanks for your upbeat attitude!
Thank you, Lori Lucente Nelson with Metro Brokers for your help on the purchase of our new home. Your upbeat attitude, professionalism and “can do” approach were such assets throughout the whole process of evaluating each prospective property and ultimately closing on our new house. We felt like you made us and our interests top priority. How refreshing!

If I had to move or buy another home Ron will be the one!!!
What can you say about Ron? We moved from Michigan and was living with family they referred me to one of there friends and she was not really wanting to work for us. She wanted us to tell her what house we wanted to look at. Well that did not go well. Then we got another lady and she was better but she would not show houses in certain locations. We saw an open house sign and we pulled in the drive way and Ron was at the door, it was all over there he told us to Fire them! He will find us a house I think it might of been two weeks later and he found it. He was also awesome he listen to our wants and needs and it was a perfect match. He helped through the process and gave us contacts to help with the home buying. If I had to move or buy another home Ron will be the one!!!

When we first came to Orlando we were a little lost trying to find a place to live and call it "HOME". Aida not only helped us find one, but did it with tremendous professionalism. Her useful insights, due diligence, noticeable interpersonal skills and wise counseling, helped us a lot. It also helped that she is bilingual and bi-cultural which gives her a better understanding of her client's needs. I never write a review, but this one is truly deserving I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Aida Urteaga to any person who is looking to buy or sell a home, as well as seek her service in any of my future real estate transactions.

My wife and I relocated to central Florida from Buffalo NY not knowing many people here. A friend introduced us to Lori and we connected with her immediately; she was warm, friendly, interested in what we truly wanted, and assured us we would find the ideal home. Lori took us to several locations in the greater Orlando area and once she showed us King's Ridge we knew we had found the location; after seeing a few homes we discovered 'the one' that both my wife and I felt 'like home.' Within a few short weeks we had the home we wanted. Lori is not only the consummate professional, she is a genuine advocate who works for her clients and endeavors to find the right property within the established budget. Her follow up is timely and she is not hesitant to express issues that could arise...a truly honest agent with integrity. Best of all, we truly enjoyed the experience we had with Lori...and we are privileged to consider her a friend.

My husband and I recently had the pleasure of working with Roland Barcenilla, for both selling our home and buying our new home. After a few short weeks of listing our home, we received several offers. Throughout the negotiations and closing Roland was there to quickly handle any issues.
When it came time to purchase our new home, Roland was very knowledgeable of the surrounding area. From the first day, Roland was very responsive and had great suggestions for homes based on what we were looking for. He found the perfect home for us! I would highly recommend Roland to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

We had a great experience with Roland and Mary. We were looking to relocate from California to Florida and were introduced to this dynamic duo through a family friend. We went out a couple of times with Roland & Mary and through the process they got to know what we wanted. They provided sound advice and were very patient with us. On our last day of house hunting, Roland said that he had a "wild card" in his back pocket... and while he acknowledged that it was a tad over our price range and out of the area that we were looking for... he secretly knew that we would love it, and we did! Throughout our 45-day escrow period, Roland was very attentive to detail and was on top of every mini deadline that we had to hit. He immediately got the inspection going, introduced us to his go-to loan agents, and negotiated for the sellers to cover items that were uncovered during inspection. Overall it was smooth process and we are extremely grateful to have had Roland and his team on our side!

Ron and his wife Jan were extremely professional and sensitive to our needs.
“My Wife and I had a very difficult situation to locate a home. Other realtors were very disappointing to work with, however, the moment Ron came into our lives we felt confident and excited with his dedication and honesty and total ability to find us the right home.. Ron was totally dedicated right to the closing table and kept us informed with every decision that needed to be made. Ron and his wife Jan were extremely professional and sensitive to our needs. We would recommend Ron and Jan to anyone that is looking to buy or sell a home!!"

We have worked with Brenda 2 times over the years. The first time was a new home purchase in 2003 / 2004. Moving fro another state, Brenda spent quite a bit of time with us to somewhat familiarize us with the areas. In 2013, she again assisted us with the sale of the same home. Again, she went far above and beyond to help ensure that we were well prepared to sell and was able to complete the transaction for us. Each time we have been extremely satisfied with her extensive knowledge of the region / communities and homes / builders. More importantly, Brenda is a pleasure to work with! She has patience, compassion and understands and respects her clients needs. We always knew that we could contact her anytime with questions, even after moving in to the home. Brenda also has the knowledge and the resources to answer and assist with the financial / legal portion of the transaction.
We highly regard Brenda as a well versed, highly skilled and caring realtor! Additionally, we consider her a friend, not just someone that shows homes. We strongly suggest that you contact Brenda for you selling / purchasing needs as once you speak and meet with her, you will feel the same way as we do!

We would give Brenda our highest recommendation. Brenda’s unique talent set was invaluable to us. She knows the Orlando real estate market inside out and everybody involved in it. She took the time to understand our needs; As a result, she was able to find the perfect home for us and sold our home in a very short time. During negotiations, she gave valuable advice that we would never have considered. She exceeded our expectations and her expertise and advice saved us a significant amount of money. Brenda is extremely hard working and a tenacious negotiator. We would describe her as fiercely loyal to her clients. She is also one of the most positive, upbeat people we have ever met, which makes working with her a true pleasure.

He is honest, ethical, hard working, and trust-worthy
Ron was a wonderful real estate agent! I met him at an open house and he took the time to really understand my needs. Although I really liked the house I saw at the open house, it wasn't quite the right fit. Ron found a beautiful house for me that was more suitable to my needs. He is honest, ethical, hard working, and trust-worthy. I recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

He is a Realtor that will help you find your dream place
From the beginning of my experience working with Ron he has been amazing! He initially stood on my front porch in the very hot sun to discuss my neighborhood. I don't know a lot of Realtors who would do that and I remember thinking he was someone with alot of patience. Once I listed with him I could tell he was someone who was going to go above and beyond not only to sell my place but to help me find my dream place. And we did.... :) He is a Realtor that will help you find your dream place too - whether it's a million dollars or 75K. You won't be disappointed!

I found the perfect home!
Lori was engaged from the start. From day one Lori had turned into an investigative researcher in my quest for a home. She had the ability to quickly identify what I was looking for and use her talents to generate a list of excellent homes within hours. Whenever we would attend a viewing her investigative instinct didn’t stop and she could quickly identify if the home was or was not exactly what I was looking for – even if I didn’t immediately see it for myself. Lori became an indispensable resource in my search for a home, and a good friend and mentor. With her help I was able to find the perfect home. Thank you Lori!

We've closed on two home purchases now with Steven, and he's been excellent to work with both times. He's very attentive, approachable, and willing to work within our schedule. We would absolutely go back to him in the future. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the Orlando area.

He will make it happen!
I was not exactly an easy client, and there were some issues peculiar to my case, but Ron stayed with me throughout the process, despite a couple speed-bumps in the road. He works hard, will meet you day or night, and is constantly on the lookout for prospective properties. Tell him what you want and he will do his best to make it happen. The best part is, he is what I call a "good man". His heart's in the right place

"If there was a choice for a ten star rating, we would give it to Roland and Mary without any hesitation!!! They were awesome....responded to emails and phone calls at any time of day or night; provided solid guidance, research and resources every step of the way. They were knowledgeable, hardworking, familiar with the Orlando area and yet never tried to push us in any direction. I am a hands on person but I was able to sit back and put the reins in their hands and they CERTAINLY delivered. We never thought that we would get the FL home of our dreams while living in another state AND after having dealt with several other realtors over the last 4 or 5 years. They came through for us every step of the way. We cannot thank them enough!"

Excellent Service from beginning to end, Aida helps us with the sale of our property and also help us in the search and buying process for our new home!! She spent a full day driving us around the communities and areas we were interested in buying and after finding the right community she help us through the entire buying process making sure that everything was done the right way. She was always available for us to guide us and answer all the questions we had. I will strongly recommend using her services if you are in the process of buying a home and need somebody that you can trust and that will makes your buy or sale of a home a more pleasant experience!!!

She Understood What I Wanted!
I met Lori at an open house that she had. We talked and I felt she really understood what I was looking for and would be the best person to sell my house. Lori helped me to find the house that I eventually bought and she also sold my house. She was patient and understanding throughout the process, which was stressful at times. We have become good friends because of this experience and I have great respect for Lori and her expertise.

"I met Roland and his wife, Mary, both realtors, for first time at one of the open houses at Avalon townhouse area when I was looking for place to live in Orlando. Since then Roland and Mary had been a great help for me and my family to find the right home for us to move from Ohio.
Roland made close to 30-40 appointments for me to search houses in Oviedo, Avalon and Lake Nona areas. And he also went to the houses and did a face-time with us while we were in Ohio since we could not be in Orlando all the time. Roland had a very strong customer focus and I highly recommend him to my colleagues at work who are also looking for help moving from Ohio to Orlando. Overall, we have been very happy with Roland's professionalism and detail to attention. Thanks again!"

She knows what she's talking about and if she doesn't she won't pretend to know and she will research and help you find out what you need to know. 2. She has the right connections. She knows the good and honest people that you will have to deal with eventually. She won't refer someone who she, herself doesn't trust. 3. She is very, very responsive. She will call you and if you call her she answers quickly. She knows her job and she does it well. 4. She is honest and hardworking. She won't force you into something that you're doubtful of. I was overly confident with what I bought and at the end of it all, me and my husband was very happy with our purchase.

Thank You, Lori!
I want to say “thank you” for what you did in selling my condo. You are a really amazing and professional real estate agent.
I live in Canada which is not convenient to contact the tenant, Condo manager, HOA office…And you did everything on your own. My condo had some issues which I did not know about. When the issues happened, you checked with inspectors, contacted the HOA office and my insurance company. Anyhow, you did what you could to settle all of the issues.
You are the most experienced and professional agent that I have met. Meanwhile, you are a nice person.
Definitely I will hire you again if I want to buy/ sell the property in the near future. For sure, I will refer you to my friends who are willing to buy property in Florida, USA.
Thanks again and good luck to you.

Steven is EXCELLENT! We initially contacted him in 2014 for a move from KY to FL and he helped us find a home to rent while we determined next steps (build vs. buy). He then assisted us when we contracted to build our home in Minneola. When the build process became difficult due to multiple builder issues, Steven took the lead with communication on our behalf. He helped us work through the issues and move forward with a very difficult process (a result of the builder issues noted). He was with us every step of the way and was a voice of reason to us. His knowledge and expertise are second to none and we appreciated his patience throughout. I highly recommend Steven to anyone in the Orlando area

Aida Urteaga was our realtor on the recent purchase of our home in Oakland, FL. We met her at an open house at a planned community we went to visit. We instantly hit it off. She found us the home of our dreams and she was always available for us, very professional and never pushy. By the time we closed on our home, she felt like family. We would recommend Aida to anyone looking for a home in the Winter Garden, FL area.

Roland was a delight to work with. He is professional, honest, and most of all patient. Coming from someone who's in sales myself, I know how hard it is, in a highly competitive field like real estate. However, Roland stood above the rest by being prepared and knowledgeable. He truly looked out for me as a client. Many questions I didn't know to ask, Roland would take the initiative, and asked many beneficial questions on my behalf, or at least made me aware situations to help make my decision accordingly. I have nothing but good things to say about him, and would highly recommend to anyone.

Roland was always professional and dedicated to our needs. Not only did he find us our new home, as each of us had specific needs and wants. He was able to work with neighboring realtors to get our other home ( which had a specific market) sold.
We have found a new friend in Roland and will definitely refer others.
