I wanted to take a few minutes to express to you how very grateful I am to you for all you did to sell my Mother’s home in Miami Shores. Your dedication, professionalism and diligence went way beyond the call of duty. You did everything possible, in a very distressed real estate environment, to market our property and make sure it had a tremendous amount of exposure. You spent endless hours reviewing and discussing contracts with me. No question or concern was too small for you to go over with me. You were both very available 24/7!! Besides your real estate expertise and credentials you bring a wealth of knowledge in architecture, building, zoning etc., which was extremely valuable. Please know how very grateful I am to both of you for selling my Mom’s home and making the experience such a positive one. You are to be highly commended. I would most highly recommend you both to anyone needing a Realtor.

Working with you is a pleasure. Your never ending patience and eye for detail set you apart from experiences I have had with other agents with other companies. I feel safe in saying that if any of my friends need real estate related services, you will be highly recommended by me. Miami can be a difficult city to navigate and you make it seen effortless, this counts for a lot in my final opinion of a person. Each city has it – s own little set of rules and you always seem to be current with each and every one of them. That to me is a very strong indicator of a true professional. It has been wonderful working with you and even more rewarding making a new friend.

I just wanted to extend to you both how fortunate Gord and I feel to have found you. I thought it would be difficult to buy Real Estate from another country. I started out thinking I would rent, you gave me the same time and attention as a million dollar client. After just a couple of outings, I knew you would make a purchase painless. Even an outside agent expressed how impressive a team you are. You took care of every detail and then some! I also thank you for continuing to hold my hand, giving names and numbers of contacts and places…Oh and don’t even get me started on your kickin website! I’ve been telling all my Canadian friends about you!

Ines has earned our thanks and gratitude for her support with the sale of our home and our relocation abroad. We were impressed from the first contact. Her immediate follow-up helped us set a price for our house to set on the market. She gave freely of her highly valuable and extensive knowledge of the Real Estate market in S. Florida, and especially in Miami Shores, but left the final decision to us and supported us fully. From what we have heard from others, some Agents do not get active until the “For Sale” sign in the lot. Through her huge contact lists, she had the first people lined up even before the sign was prepared! Her marketing mix of Newsletter, print brochure, and even word of mouth was over the top and HIGHLY effective. The sale was done in a week, throughout many pushes of the buyer to lower the price, she successfully kept it at asking level. She is an exceptional negotiator, very professional, but with the ability to capture people with her charm. All of the advice, contacts, and post sale support as our international move got closer, was invaluable. We would have been lost quite a few times without having Ines as an ally. We will both wholeheartedly recommend Ines to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in S. Florida. She is a treasure, a great team player, and a wonderful and caring person who has made her calling in life to their job.

I have been involved in several real estate deals over the past few years and therein have dealt with many real estate agents. Without question my best experience was with Rick & Ines Garcia. They standout from your typical real estate agent(s). Rick is a mortgage broker and accountant so he understood and explained the financial aspect of our deal. Ines is an architect and she helped visualize possible changes that matched our design taste. Furthermore, they did not view us (my wife and I) as clients – they thought of us as their friends. Rick & Ines went out of their way to get to know us better so they could truly understand what we were looking for within our budgetary constraints.

It is truly difficult to write a glowing testimonial for Ines and Rick. Why? Well, finding words that are strong enough without sounding clichéd, overused, or trite necessitates an unabridged dictionary. So, we’ll err on the side of simplicity. They rock! From the first contact with Ines we were guided with care and compassion. The full story of our recent, successful purchase of a short sale condo in midtown Miami, while appropriate for the Halloween season upon us, is too long and harrowing to recount. However, throughout it all, Ines and Rick were there to keep us calm, encourage our patience, and close the gaps in our knowledge. For example, Ines’s clearly stating right up front that ‘short sales are long and tough, but if you’re patient…’ kept us focused and realistic. She never ‘sold’ anything to us, but rather let us buy. She never forced her perspective on us, but rather shared honest assessment and data for our consideration. She was professional, tireless, and real with us both face-to-face and long-distance. When tough economic reports in the news made us anxious, her insight and intelligence kept us balanced. The process took over five months…five months of little to no movement on the part of the seller’s bank, but not Ines. She moved! She was our advocate and communication link while the bank thought about the short sale, misplaced paperwork, thought some more, and passed our offer from level to level, operating as if heavily sedated. The only thing that made us stay with the short sale process, other than perhaps naivete, was the realistic hope that she continued to instill in us (and the desire for warm weather in the Winter, of course.) Completing the picture, Rick offered the detail, humor, and smarts that were needed to help us get the right mechanics moving. If the bank was going to slow this down, Rick and Ines ensured that we wouldn’t. So, while we’re not ones to gush, in rereading what we’ve written above about Ines and Rick, we realize it’s nearly a love letter. So be it. It’s deserved. If you have any choice in the team with whom you work on your real estate search or transaction, the choice is clear and absolute: Rick and Ines. Period.
