Elena Bluntzer

I would like to take the opportunity to thank you and your staff for selling my unit at Fisher Island. Your professionalism, excellent marketing, local contacts and market knowledge allowed me to realize a fair price in an extremely challenging economic environment. As you know, I have run a national Real Estate firm for the past thirty years. You and your firm are as effective as anyone that I have had the pleasure to work with. Thank you again for a job well done.

I am writing the following letter because merit should be given when meiit is due. I was the property owner of 15922 Seaside Villas at Fisher Island. Elena Bluntzer was my realtor and her professionalism, dedication and expertise were the sole reason why my property was sold. Her experience is unparallel and her vast knowledge of Fisher Island's equity membership rules and regulations were essential for contract negotiation and the closing. She has very well established relationships with Fisher's membership staff, which facilitated the sale's process. I would highly recommend her for all real-estate needs l [ am a real tor myself and it is with great pleasure that I write this letter. I feel Elena gives the industry a good name, at a time when unfortunately not all realtors are credible. Thank you Bluntzer Group. I am another satisfied client.

Thank you again for your all support and professional attitude during the sale transaction. I hope we can make some business together again in the future.

My name is Kevin O'Brien. I woke up this morning the happy Seller of a condominium on Fisher Island in Miami. Yesterday, after nine grueling months, in the worst market I have ever seen, Elena Bluntzer was kind enough to dispose of it for me. By way of introduction, my company owns and manages two thousand apartment units. I have been in real estate all of my business life. As a Realtor, Broker, Property Manager, General Contractor, General Partner, Managing Member, Investor and Owner I've spent the past twenty eight years brokering, buying, renovating, managing and selling real estate. My business day consists of speaking to lawyers, brokers, buyers and sellers. The name Elena Bluntzer will forever be etched in my real estate Hall of Fame. I interviewed her along with two other Brokers after our condo sat on the market unsold for twenty months. Her preparation, presentation and professionalism were head and shoulders above the other candidates. She made the decision easy for me. I knew that I was impressed. I did not know if she would deliver.Over the next nine months Elena continually exceeded my expectations. I'm sure you've heard horror stories about short sales. Mine was no exception. Elena talked big, and she backed it up in every way. She showed my unit constantly, worked very well with co brokers and completely understood the market. I found that she possessed tremendous pride and was inexhaustible. The "fourth quarter" of our short sale lasted three months and, surprisingly, I saw her get stronger as we approached the finish line. Competent, determined and experienced accurately describe her. I felt that I had a person representing me who brought more to the table than I did. I'm not used to that. During months of daily frustration she was continually pleasant and "cool under fire." Elena was absolutely expert at reading contracts and noticing errors that I or my counsel had missed. I'm not used to that either. Her staff was competent and responsive. I never felt forgotten or disconnected. After the performance I witnessed, I would bet that Elena could handle standard transactions with her eyes closed and both hands tied behind her back. I've spent a lifetime dealing with Brokers and, for the most part, I haven't been too impressed. Elena definitely is an All-Star. f you hire this woman, I can guarantee that you will not be disappointed with her personally or professionally. I am pleased to repay her massive effort to me and my family with this letter of recommendation. My lawyer called her a "bulldog." I assure you, he meant it as a compliment.

We would highly recommend working with Elena and her team. They helped us find our perfect home and made us feel at ease during the entire process. From our first meeting with Elena, we knew she would guide us in the right direction. She has an incredible knowledge of the market, impeccable taste and was very helpful in identifying homes that were well priced and valued. She showed us a number of homes in our price range and was very honest about homes that were not well valued. We never felt that Elena was looking to make a quick sale - she was looking to find our dream home. She patiently stood by us over months of searching and once we found our home, she handled negotiations with the seller - sometimes late at night and round the clock. Once in contract, we relied on Elena's extensive network of vendors and experts to help us through inspection. Everyone was a professional - honest and quick to respond. As first-time homebuyers, she was our advocate and identified issues and solutions to get us to closing. Elena also brought a critical eye to the process. We trusted her completely and couldn't be more happy with where we ended up. Thank you Elena for everything!

Elena is The best realtor I ha ever met.nothing more to say. I have met

Elena Bluntzer has sold my property 2214 Fisher Island during the past 30 days. I was extremely pleased with her work, and her method of marketing and selling the property. Elena was responsive to any questions and concerns. She addressed any questions with straightforward answers, which left me feeling confident that we were on track towards a sale. One valuable extra is the well-organized office and staff. Elena and her assistant were extremely knowledgeable about the local market as well as the regulations and contacts to put together a final sale. Living out of the area, and away from the property, I often relied on Elena and her assistant, Jennifer, to help with details I couldn't manage. They were always ready to step in and go the extra mile. I recommend Elena Bluntzer for your real estate needs, without hesitation.

My experience as a buyer of luxury property with Elena Bluntzer as my broker was one that I appreciate thoroughly for several reasons, not the least of which includes her relentless attention to the details of the contract and looking out for my best interest. Elena guided me on all contexts of decisions that needed to be made through normally difficult negotiation processes to ensure a good outcome. In the case of the purchase of this home (located in Pinecrest, Florida) we were in competition with other qualified cash buyers but with her guidance and perseverance we appropriately prevailed and were able to secure the property in contract within 24 hours of having viewed it.I gladly recommend Elena and her team to anyone who values the services of a consummate professional in the very competitive real estate industry. She is knowledgeable and tireless about recognizing and pointing out details of the property that may not be self-evident to the buyer. Elena made the buying process, which can be stressful and emotional, as relaxed and seamless as possible all the way to closing. Post-closing, she and her team have continued to help with other details that needed tweaking in the home, making sure the punch list was completed to our satisfaction and helping me find the best property insurance. Including insurance alternatives.I will be happy to have Elena and her team represent me and other members of my family in all our real estate investments, both buying and selling, well into the future.

I almost never write letters of recommendation. My only exception is for truly outstanding performance. Elena Bluntzer and her Executive Assistant, Jennifer Cordoba, were most helpful and professional in helping us find our new home! Knowing the general area where we wished to relocate, I researched properties and realtors. I picked out a dozen properties that I thought had potential. It was time to engage a professional. I have good friends with Sotheby’s in Denver. They recommended an affiliate familiar with “South of 5th,” Coral Gables and Coconut Grove, FL — Elena Bluntzer. I sent my list of potential properties along with why I thought these homes could fit the bill. Elena and Jennifer arranged visits to most of these. Also, they chased down answers to questions on the various properties. Elena quickly learned our favored style and preferences — especially from several properties I ruled out (or she did). After a densely packed few days, Elena suggested that I view a property, a little outside my search zone and target price range. She perceived a fit and she was right! I arranged a second visit, this time with my wife, for final confirmation from among the top four. Elena shared her candid opinion that one of the properties was significantly over priced. I value her honesty. We decided: “Yes!” to Elena’s addition and “what were you thinking?” about my other three. Elena counseled me on making an appropriate offer and suggested a local attorney. Elena maintained close communications with the developer while the attorney scrubbed the details. We reached a deal and have closed. Attention to detail and local knowledge of the market were critical in this transaction. Personal chemistry and candor made it fun. Both Elena and Jennifer were a pleasure to work with. If you’re considering a South Florida residence, I whole heartedly recommend The Bluntzer Group.
