I wish I could give Nevena 6 out of 5 stars!

Our house got multiple offers almost as soon as it hit the market, all over asking price. She knows her stuff! Her advice at every step from pricing to post sale negotiations was SPOT ON. She took so much extra time staging our home. Her open house was standing room only. She was a warm, reassuring person to work with during a stressful time.

Justin Krauss, Managing director, J.P. Morgan

Her marketing strategy brought us a ton of traffic!

Nevena was amazing! She assisted us in buying our home and in selling it several years later. Her advice on writing a competitive offer and the ways we could improve our terms without affecting our bottom line were key in helping us get the house. When selling, her advice on staging and preparing our home for listing was excellent. Her marketing strategy brought our listing a ton of traffic resulting in multiple offers. She helped us negotiate a deal we were very happy with. Her communication was immediate, clear, and concise.

Nevena was 100 percent attentive to my preferences!

Nevena was absolutely fabulous! She was 100 percent attentive to my preferences when compiling viewing options, was very knowledgeable of the areas both inside the city and in the suburbs and was simply a joy to be around. In fact, when my preferred option went off the market just before I was able to view it, Nevena reached out through her own network of appreciative buyers and found me the ideal home before it went to market! I couldn't be happier with my experience and recommend Nevena at the highest level!

Nevena made our relocation to Pittsburgh a breeze. Our experience exceeded our expectations. She was warm and welcoming and helped us hone in on the perfect home. Her unquestioning support, responsiveness, and excellent service continued throughout the buying process, where Nevena executed all critical steps.

We had never worked with a realtor we valued as much as she!

My husband and I are fervent supporters of Nevena! We had never worked with a realtor we valued as much as she. She is a 5-star and a 10 out of 10. To illustrate the wonder of Nevena, let us start by telling you that we were initially attracted to her by her online reviews and her personal and warm approach to helping others make a smooth transition into the Pittsburgh region. She knows the city exceptionally well. She listened to us and did not try to push us in a particular direction. She was diligent, personable, and dedicated; we trusted her completely.

Nevena knows the Pittsburgh market inside out!

Three cheers for Nevena!!!! I relocated to Pittsburgh from overseas, and Nevena helped me close on my house in a record time! I was connected to Nevena through my company's relocation services, and it has been fantastic to work with her. Nevena knows the Pittsburgh market inside out, and she is business savvy. She is diligent and thorough in her work and highly professional. Always available and advised wisely. Everything with my house closing was seamless because of her. Highly recommend her!

She really understood what my family wanted!

Nevena was fantastic! She understood what my family wanted and was spot on. After assisting us with rentals for the first year, she was spot on when we were ready to purchase the house. All of the homes we visited had everything we asked for. I recommend her to anyone looking for relocation or just trying to find a new home.

Frederico Moreira, Infrastructure Manager, ArcelorMittal

She had a perfect sense of whether a property was a good deal!

Nevena was extremely helpful! Even with our long list of wants and needs, she understood what we were looking for and quickly helped us find a home. She had a perfect sense of whether a property was a good deal and could share the pros and cons of all the properties. During the home inspection, she took a large amount of stress out of the experience. We would highly recommend Nevena to anyone, especially to transplants and first-time home buyers, as she really makes the experience fun and straightforward.

Joanne Buchbinder, Duquesne University

Nevena gracefully managed every obstacle!

We highly recommend putting your trust in Nevena in today's uncertain market. She gracefully managed every obstacle, including inventory, pricing, and buyers. Nevena brings an objective perspective to the relationship that makes the extremely personal and stressful affair of buying and selling no longer an anguish-filled undertaking. She provided the confidence and consistent reassurance we needed resulting in a sale price commensurate with the love (and resources!) we poured into our home. We couldn't be happier with the services Nevena provided and with the outcome of our home purchase, and the subsequent sale of it years later.
