We chose Magda as the Real Estate agent to handle to sale of our elderly mother's house when it was time for her to move into a more manageable space. Magda was the consummate professional, and went above and beyond to make the whole process as painless as possible for our mother. She explained every step, handled the details, and our mom and all of us had every reason to believe that Magda had mom's best interest at heart. Thank you so much for all you did. Honestly, the best realtor we've ever worked with!
I am proud to recommend Magda Whelton as a real estate professional. My wife & I are out of state residents who were seeking a vacation home in Venice. As a business owner I have little time to “shop the market”. Magda was recommended by someone we knew in the area. We contacted her and she was polite and courteous and took the time to ask and answer a number of questions about the type of home we were looking for. She is extremely knowledgeable of the properties and communities in the area. We made a date to visit a few weeks later. Over the next three weeks we traded several emails narrowing down a list of homes we would visit. We spent a half day Sunday & a Monday morning looking at homes; Magda found us the perfect place. We made an offer Monday afternoon (which was initially rejected). Magda spent that evening and the next morning negotiating on our behalf. We signed a contract @ noon and made our 3:30 flight home. We closed five weeks later. Thank you Magda.
Magda provided friendly and very professional assitance with our home sale and the subsequent search for a new one. She was a welcome extension to our efforts with unpressured guidance. Her experience and confidence made our transition much easier. We recommend her with no reservation.
We came to Florida in November 2013 to shop for a home in the Venice area. We were being shown around by Magda Whelton, whom we had met at an open house several months earlier. Magda patiently spent an entire week showing us properties that met our requirements, all the while impressing us with her knowledge of the real estate market, her knowledge of real estate laws and practices, and her promptness in getting back to us with answers to our questions. On our last day she showed us the home that we knew was just right for both of us. While we returned north to pack for the movers, Magda took care of all the home inspections and repairs and preparations for the closing, all the while keeping us constantly updated by phone, text, and e-mail. The closing went flawlessly. We now have our dream home in a beautiful neighborhood with wonderful neighbors, and those neighbors include Magda and her family. We will not hesitate to recommend Magda to friends, family, or anyone looking to buy or sell property in this area. Molto grazie, Magda.
From our initial interaction right through to the end of our closing, Magda displayed the utmost professionalism. She was knowledgeable about the market and quick to show us a plethora of homes. She spent a lot of time getting to know us and what we were looking for in a home. She was quite responsive, always available via phone, email or text at any time, and she parlayed requested information in a timely fashion. She worked late into the night on a holiday weekend to put a contract on a home for us. Through the lengthy process of coming to terms all parties agreed upon, she remained optimistic and encouraging. We were 100% satisfied with Magda, and we would recommend her highly. Our family is very grateful for her help throughout this process, and we couldn't be happier with our new home. Thank you Magda! Dr. Matthew and Lisa Corn & 4 children
Magda Whelton was amazing throughout the process of selling our home. We honestly felt like we had family watching out for us. She gave us thoughtful and thorough information that allowed for us to appropriately price and prepare our home for sale. After our house sold, Magda handled everything flawlessly so that we could focus on our work, family, and packing. She helped us navigate through the inspection report and identify what items we needed to address. She answered our many questions with great patience and timeliness. When the closing date arrived, buyer-related financing issues arose. Magda was an unbelievable advocate for us. She was in constant contact with the buyers' agent and lender to ensure that we knew where their financing stood. She truly went above and beyond. Her efforts on our behalf eased our stress because we knew that she was on top of everything. Magda even unofficially helped us to find a rental home while we wait for our new home to complete construction. Magda truly was a life saver for our family.
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.
Magda, Thanks for everything you did to make the purchase of our condo possible. After a year or more of tirelessly showing us all kinds of homes, vacant lots and condos, you helped us get an accepted offer on a modest condo in town. And then after your MSC title department uncovered title issues related to the condo's previous long-deceased owners (special thanks to Jayne Dower and her people); you and the rest of MSC stayed with us (eleven months of effort) and helped bring closure to the issues, enabling us to finally purchase the condo. I think I can speak also for Alex in saying that people could do much worst by going elsewhere, but I don't think anybody could do better than to go with you & MSC when it comes to purchasing Venice real estate. We have arleady recommended you to people, and will continue to do so. Please take care, and when I / we have a free moment we'll pop by your office to say "hi" to you and Jayne. Tracy and Alexandra Williamson
We had the pleasure of working with Magda Whelton. Magda was at all times very professional: honest, thorough, prepared, and knowledgeable. At no time did we ever feel inconsequential or pressured into making a premature decision about a property. Magda's presence throughout the sequence of activities leading to our purchase was a pleasant, soothing, and reliable one. In the short time since our purchase, we have already recommended her. We will not hesitate to tell others that Magda is an excellent choice.
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!
Magda Whelton......we love her attention to details, her constantly keeping us informed, her willingness to answer questions and work through problems. She was always available.....a real pleasure to have on our side!
In 2017 we decided to buy a home in Venice FL. We had a Canadian friend who recommended Magda to us as a very good Real Estate Broker. Magda was very professional and easy to deal with. She always took her time and did not pressure us to buy even after showing us several homes. We went back to Canada in the spring and returned in the fall. During that time Magda kept us informed on what homes were for sale in the market place. She then showed us the home we eventually purchased. Not only did she find us a very nice home but was helpful in negotiating with the sellers. We wanted to move in before Christmas but was advised there probably was not enough time to have the property inspected and all the paper work completed. Magda pushed to have this accomplished as we moved in 7 days before Christmas. Not only is she a great real estate lady but is willing to spend the time helping with whom to contact re home inspections and various trades people. When and if we were to sell the property, Magda will be the person we will use. It was a pleasure working with ya Magda.
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.
It is my pleasure to be able to share my experience in working with Magda Whelton. Magda commits herself and her efforts to the interests of her clients above all. She is scrupulously honest, patient, knowledgeable, detail oriented and responsive. Real estate transactions can be stressful. Magda’s expertise makes the process a positive experience from start to finish. I highly recommend this wonderful professional to you, she will exceed your highest expectations.
