Magda Whelton was a great realtor who was always there if we had questions regarding the sale of our property. Everything went smoothly at the closing. We would highly recommend her if you are thinking of buying or selling a property.
Magda Whelton listed our house in south Sarasota County in January of this year (2018). At this time we hoped that we could close the sale of our house in late March or April. We also expressed to Magda that we had an interest in buying a condo apartment in the Jacaranda Trace complex. What we had not counted on was the overwhelming competition from all the new developments in south county. Ms. Whelton's commitment to the marketing and selling our house was outstanding in this trying period. Her intelligence and knowledge of the market gave us confidence that a sale would occur. When we did settle on our house in July, she convinced the buyer to permit us to remain in the house for four days after settlement, a real blessing for two aging seniors. The purchase of the unit 3730 Cadbury Circle was uneventful until the afternoon of settlement. The seller was in Poland, had a faulty power of attorney and settlement could not happen. Magda got an agreement that we could occupy the unit until a settlement could happen (in late August). Throughout the entire process, it was clear that Madga knew what she was doing and looking out for our best interests.
Magda was highly recommended by a friend who had used her services and we were so pleased that we did too. We were able to make all the arrangements long distance from CA to purchase a home in Venice. Thanks to Magda’s expertise, attention to detail, her excellent communication skills and her personable and gracious approach all went extremely well. We could not have done this without her!
Magda recently helped us look for a new condo in the Venice area. After selling our large home rather quickly in Homossasa, Fl. We were under the gun to find a new place. Always available to either show us new homes or just answer a question, she was always available to fit us in. After a few weeks of looking at different places, we found a condo in Venice. We would not hesitate to use Magda in the future or recommend her to anyone who is looking to either buy or sell a home.
Magda did a fantastic job! She was always available when we called and her follow up was prompt and detailed. I would recommend Magda if you are looking to sell or buy as she made our buying experience a very positive event!
Magda was excellent to work with. We had our house listed twice before for a total of 10 months on the market, with no results. Magda sold our house in 24 days! She is communicative, knowledgeable, and a consummate professional. I highly recommend her, and look forward to working with her again.
Magda helped us sell our home that had been on the market with another local realtor for a year. She gave us great advice on minor improvements that made our home more appealing and increased its value. Magda and her staff helped us find qualified people to do the work we needed and they helped us stage our home at minimal cost. Magda's knowledge of the neighborhood, school district and homeowner's association got us the results we were hoping for. We sold our home in less than 2 weeks at a higher price than we were asking with our previous realtor. If you are selling your home, use Magda Whelton!
Magda is definitely a 5-Star agent. Anyone selling or buying a home in the Venice area (and particularly, the Venetian Golf & River Club) can't go wrong in hiring Magda. She is extremely diligent and detail-oriented, and gives great advice and counsel about all aspects of selling and buying a home. She is also very pleasant and easy to work with. Hiring Magda was probably the best decision we made in purchasing our new home in the Venetian Golf & River Club.
Magda Whelton was a joy to work with. She is very professional, has a good sense of humor and is very knowledgeable about real estate in the Venice area. She listened to us describe what we wanted, and then found it for us.
By far, the best realtor we’ve ever worked with! Very professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and takes care of business! We would recommend her to anyone, and will definitely use her again!
Magda has been wonderful as representative agent for our search for a home in the Venice area. She is a true professional and thorough in our dealings. Glad that we responded to her inquiry and personally met her.
Magda made the horrible house selling experience very easy and pleasant. from the first meeting thru the showings, and very efficiently handling the offers. She proved her integrity and her dedication to her customers and everything was handled with respect and courtesy. I would highly recommend Magda to anyone in the area thinking of selling. You will be taken care of in an excellent and professional way. I hope when I sell my home up north Magda will be available???
Magda recently helped my wife and I purchase a home in Toscana Isle. I have been in the mortgage business for over 30 years, and have worked with hundreds of Realtors over that time, and I can honestly say that I would put Magda at the top of that list. From the first time we talked with her, she had a full understanding of what we wanted to accomplish. We are from Minnesota, so our initial conversations were by telephone and Magda listed to everything we said. When we had an opportunity to come down and start our search, Magda was so organized, remembering details from previous conversations and knowing we had limited time to look, she streamlined our search and made our homebuying process much easier than I would have ever imagined. I would (and already have) recommend Magda to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home. She is a true professional who puts the needs of her clients first, and looks out for their best interest. Thank you Magda for being so attentive, you made our home buying process very easy!
Magda was wonderful to work with. She was friendly (even huggable) yet very professional! She knew what was available, showed us the homes we wanted to see, answered all our questions, and was always accessible to respond to our questions. She was prompt for meetings. She handled the closing since we were unable to be there for the closing. She made good recommendations when we asked for advice or for services. She understood what we were looking for and was so very valuable in finding what we wanted!
Magda came highly recommend and didn’t disappoint. She was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end keeping us informed along the way. Her knowledge of the market and our area (Venice) was key to helping sell our house in a timely manner while getting our desired price. I would definitely recommend her!
Magda is amazing! She made the home buying process an easy one. Supplying all the connections to home inspectors, loan officers, and everyone involved along the way. She got to know us, so she could find the perfect home to fit our family's needs. She advised us on potential hazards and benefits, of the areas in which we were looking to purchase. Its obvious she loves what she does, and that is reflected in her outstanding customer service. I would highly recommend Magda, and her expertise, if you're looking to buy a home.
Magda was a pleasure to work with. Her experience helped make us feel comfortable every step of the way in such a big decision for us. We are so thankful for her encouraging words, knowledge and insight. She was always available and prompt in replies. She was punctual and well prepared. She went out of her way to work in concert with our bank and contractors to ensure a smooth and open transition. She was very knowledgeable of the market and buying process and able to explain it in a way for us to understand. We would recommend Magda to anyone searching for a home. She helped us find our dream home and we love it.
Thank you so much for your great work making this selling such a pleasant experience for us and for adding this special touch with the correspondence in German!
Having purchased our house in March we would like to pass on our sincere thanks to your sales associate Magda Whelton for the exceptional service we received from her. Throughout our search for a property she acted in a very professional way. She helped us with the negotiations with the seller and assisted us with the completion of the purchase forms and in many other ways. We have bought many properties over the years and Magda surpassed, by far, other realtors that we have dealt with.
In our recent real estate transaction involving the purchase of a home in Venice, Florida, we were very fortunate to have worked with Magda Whelton. Throughout the entire process, Magda was a consummate professional. She exceeded all our expectations. She responded quickly and professionally to any question we had from negotiating on the property through closing. She was extremely knowledgeable and was always supportive. She often went beyond what she had to do, was a great listener, and was always wonderful to talk with. If we ever need real estate assistance in the future, Magda would be the only person we would go to.
Magda listened to us and we to her! By doing this she heard us and we heard her. This process was invaluable and it sold our house in a short amount of time. Once the house went under contract, Magda proved even more invaluable as she took care of all of the details involved in getting from contract to closing. We could not have been happier with her and her incredible personality. We will always remain friends with her. She is the consummate professional real estate agent and extremely highly recommended
Magda was a delight to work with. She helped guide us in the busy real estate market in Venice. We have sold and purchased numerous properties over the years and Magda was the best agent we have ever experienced. She was very patient, not at all pushy and had a great sense of humor as well. I can't recommend her highly enough!
The task of selling my parents' house seemed daunting. The numerous miles and states between us, made it difficult for me to provide as much help as they needed. I don't know how we would have managed without Magda. The first time I spoke to her, I knew we were in good hands. She made the entire process easy and painless. I can't thank her enough for the countless trips she made to the house to check on progress, lend a hand, drop off paperwork, or just stop for a visit. She went above and beyond for us
We referred to Magda Whelton by a friend whom met her at an open house. When we contacted her we found her to be professional, knowledgeable and had an inviting personality. These attributes were true. She kept in contact with us and when we received our offer it was a quick turn around. We closed in 3 weeks later. My husband and I highly recommend Magda for selling our buying your residence in this area. She lives in the community and well aware of real estate market. Wendy McWhorter.
After our mom passed away suddenly, Magda Whelton did an amazing job through the entire process of getting my mom's house in Southwood sold and closed on. We interviewed three realtors and choose Magda after she presented the most thorough, realistic, and professional presentation on how she would market mom's house for us. Magda sold the house immediately after we listed it with her! The buyers had problems with a closing on another house, so our closing went on for about a month longer than we anticipated. Magda hung right in there with us, communicating with us every step of the way and acting as as our advocate through the entire process. She also went above and beyond by physically going by mom's house often to make sure everything was good with it. Because we do not live in the area, she enabled us to do all paperwork via email. Magda is everything you could hope for in a realtor--competent, professional, personable, compassionate, and diligent.
