"To anyone needing a GREAT Real Estate agent"

 We needed to sell my mom’s home in Clearwater Florida very quickly in order to move her
back to the Midwest.  After interviewing several realtors we decided to list with Susan
Orneck at Prudential Tropical Realtors based on her experience, her engaging personality,
her professionalism, knowledge of the real estate market and marketing plan for our
property. This proved to be, hands down, the absolute best decision we could possibly
have ever made.

Susan was active in every part of the transaction from the property assessment to listing to
closure and kept us informed and offered very straightforward suggestions every step of
the way.

We left all of the furnishings in the home because we had to move out of state so quickly
and had little time to prep the home for resale.  While we were over 1000 miles away,
Susan found a very reasonably priced contractor to repaint the walls for us, install new
carpeting, make some minor repairs and professionally clean the entire home.  She then put
her design expertise to work and restaged the furnishings in every room so the home had
great show appeal.

She immediately posted photos on the real estates listing site and held an agents open
house.

This home was in an adult living community that had over 50 other properties for sale at
the same time, yet Susan attracted a bona fide buyer within the very FIRST week of the
listing and negotiated a sale price that was darn close to the list price.  Wow!  Simply
stated we were stunned.

The buyer had their own furnishings so Susan even took it upon herself to find a way get
all of our furnishings moved out.

She handled all of the many, many details with the buyers and their agent, the property
management company and the title company and even arranged a “mail-away” closing for
us.  The entire transaction went through without a hitch and we didn’t even have to fly
back to Florida to attend the closing.  

Time the property was on the market was less than a week and total time from listing to
closing was less than 45 days.  During this entire process, and even though we were 1000
miles away - there was rarely a day that went by that we didn’t get a progress update
from Susan.

As I stated initially, listing our property with Susan was the absolute best decision we could
have ever made. I would definitely enlist her services again and highly recommend anyone
wanting to sell their property to list it with Susan – believe me when I say that you will not
be disappointed in the results.

 Susan on a personal note: This was much more to us than a real estate transaction or
business deal.  You truly listened and respected our needs, offered terrific direction and
treated us as if we were members of your own family. We are more grateful to you than
words can express so please accept our humble thanks.

In capital letters….THANK YOU!!!"

 " This letter is for future buyers and sellers out there alike. In 2002, my husband and I
owned a condo in Largo, Florida. We contacted Susan Orneck and asked her to help sell
our home. She came in and worked her "magic" and within a three to four days we had a
contract and it sold; wow, we were amazed!

 Since that time, we have relocated to Kentucky and inherited a wonderful home our
father left us located in the Largo area. Once again we needed a realtor and remembered
the great job that Susan had done with our last home and quickly called on her.

 She has pulled it off once again to our surprise (knowing how bad the market is we
wondered if this could be done within a year's time)! She placed our home on the market
and within one week she had a buyer! What a gigantic surprise this was to us. Susan has
such a way with people and with her connections to "get the job done" is unbelievable!

 One week before the contract, she pulled off a few minor repairs the house needed
because there wasn’t anyone living in the home at the time, she also went the extra mile
to hire someone she knows to have them "perk up the yard" with mulch and trimmings and
made it look sweet again. During that week of preparation, Susan called several times giving
us updates on her progress assuring us that she was in charge and doing everything she
said that she was going to do getting our permission before she acted.

 This woman has a gift to set things up and sell a home! She goes beyond what is
expected of her and her integrity is amazing. What she says she will do! She follows
through; no surprises! She is highly professional but not to the point that she cannot get
down to any persons’ level and relate and be friendly. She is a wonderful person who is full
of talent and integrity and we highly recommend that if you place your home or you invest
your time with her to help you buy a home, you will not be disappointed; you will be
thankful indeed! She even went so far as to send us a package that she purchased with
her own money on "How to Invest" because we were not sure where we should place our
money after the sale of our home. This is truly a special woman who cares for people.

 We may be in Kentucky , but we have friends in Florida and if they need a realtor we will
highly recommend Susan knowing that our past experiences with her have been a pleasure
and we guarantee that yours will as well!"

 "I first met Susan, when she was representing the buyer who bought the home I sold.  
At  first I was impressed with how she guided the buyer through the whole process.
Seeing this made me decide I wanted her on my side as I looked for a new home. She
took the time to research every home I was interested in. Before we went to look at a
property, I knew a lot about it - good and bad. She educated me in many aspects of
buying a home.  She knows all the details of buying and selling and spends many hours
doing her homework.           

 Susan knows the Real Estate business from all angles and has a vast knowledge of what
she is doing.  I recommend her expertise to everyone I know who is in the market of
buying or selling their homes."

 "Hi Susan,

 I wanted to take time to let you know how much I really appreciated your professionalism
as Buyer’s Agent in the transaction to sell my home.  Selling your home “By Owner” can be
stressful.  The poor economy and housing market slowdown has been such a burden for
home sellers.   I feel that you handled the price negotiations in a fair and respectful manner
to reach a win-win contract.

 I also appreciated your excellent follow-through to keep closing preparation on track.  This
was by far the smoothest closing I have ever been involved with.  No surprises at closing.

 I would highly recommend your professional real estate services."

 Best regards, Jamee A. Haines

  












 "About 3 years ago I decided that it was time to make a retirement plan. I always wanted
to live in a Tropical Area, so I focused on Florida. I made several trips and finally decided on
the West Coast.

 I had been searching hundreds of listings, and when it was time to buy, I had no Idea of
how to get started. A friend told me about Susan, so I called her. She suggested that I do
some reading. I did so, and afterward, I was able to further focus on exactly where I
wanted to be, and what I could expect to spend. It was still a little scary, pulling up my
roots, but Susan took me by the hand and had my back all through the process. She made
it so simple that I was truly amazed!

  Just reading about her credentials put me at ease, but when I actually met her, it was
easy to see why she is “TOP in her Class of Realtors”. She combined a “True Professional
Approach” with a caring attitude and gave me the feeling that I was in the right hands.

 The rest is History. Now I am a very happy and proud Florida Home Owner!
 Thank you Susan."

 "Susan Orneck was our Real Estate agent for a condo we owned in Dunedin, Florida.  Not
being a permanent resident of Dunedin, we did not know who to call or what to call or
what real estate company to go through when we decided to sell.

 A family friend who lives in the area gave us Susan’s name and number and recommended
her to us. Upon meeting with Susan, we found her to be a lovely person and a highly
qualified Real Estate agent.  Her recommendations and suggestions were right on track
with the current real estate market and they were highly instrumental in the sale of our
condo.  She communicated with us on a weekly basis, if not more, and kept us well
informed of any activity and feedback from prospective buyers.
 Because of her diligence and hard work, we were able to sell our condo within one month
of it being listed! It was a real pleasure meeting and doing business with Susan.  She is a
sincere person and a dedicated worker for anyone she represents.  We would highly
recommend her to anyone for any future real estate transactions."
