Monica is not only an excellent realtor but also a person with common sense and good instincts. Her legal background is also an asset.

★★★★★
She is an amazing realtor! She is very patient and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Monica!

★★★★★
Monica is very knowledgeable about the areas and locations where I was seeking a property. She listened to my requirements and I was able to find a home that I truly enjoy. Monica is very patient and responds quickly. She cares. I also learned a lot about buying a home in Texas and it was a very valuable experience. She helped me get the best price for my new home. She is also very resourceful for various options that you may need in your home. It helps when you do not have those contacts. I highly recommend Monica as an agent. THANK YOU Monica for all your help, support, and friendship.

★★★★★
This is the second time that I have worked with Monica, and quite simply, she is fabulous. She is responsive, professional and a delight to work with. She takes care of every detail; researches properties; provides honest feedback on properties and the process in general. I would recommend her to friends, and I plan to use her for future transactions.

★★★★★
Monica Finkelstein was the most knowledgeable of all the agents I interview prior to listing the property. Her professionalism, understanding of the market, and the input to staging, pricing, and negotiating the sale was invaluable. She was constantly in communication with me during entire process. As a real estate investor, I have worked with a number of agents but none as harder working or more in tuned with the realty industry than Monica.
