1. What advice would you give a buyer trying to purchase a home?
Based on years of experience, the Elizabeth Costa Team advises that if you're planning to buy a home—especially in a competitive real estate market like Miami—there are three key steps to take before making an offer:
1.-Get Pre-Approved: This is essential. Knowing your budget and having a pre-approval letter shows sellers you're serious and financially ready.
2.- Define Your Priorities: Make a list of your must-haves (location, number of bedrooms, amenities, etc.) versus nice-to-haves. This helps narrow your search and keeps you focused.
3.- Understand the Market: Research average prices, days on market, and inventory in your target area. Markets like Doral, Brickell, Coral Gables, and Wynwood have different dynamics and price trends.
Once you’re prepared, the next step is to work with a trusted local real estate agent who knows the nuances of each neighborhood. Whether you're looking for a single-family home, luxury condo, waterfront property, or new construction, having an expert on your side makes all the difference.
With over 14 years of experience in Miami real estate, I specialize in helping buyers like you navigate complex transactions—from financing to final negotiations. As a bilingual Realtor® (English-Spanish) and partner of Forbes Global Properties, I serve both local and international clients with a personalized, data-driven approach.
? I focus on top-performing neighborhoods like Doral, Coral Gables, Brickell, Miami Beach, and Wynwood, offering valuable insight into relocation, downsizing, and investment strategies.

2. What advice would you give a seller trying to sell their home?
The Elizabeth Costa Team recommends following key steps when selling a home—especially in high-demand areas like Miami, Doral, Brickell, or Coral Gables—because simply listing the property is not enough. Here are three essential tips to maximize your sale:
1.- Price it Right from the Start: Overpricing can lead to longer days on market and low offers. 2.- Use a comparative market analysis (CMA) to determine a competitive price based on local data.
3.- Prepare Your Home for Sale: Declutter, deep clean, and consider staging. First impressions matter, especially in the luxury real estate market where buyers expect high presentation standards.
4.- Market Strategically: Professional photography, targeted digital marketing, and maximum exposure on MLS and global platforms are essential to reach serious buyers—locally and internationally.
With over 14 years of experience in Miami’s luxury and high-value real estate market, I help homeowners sell faster and smarter. I offer full-service listing strategies that include pricing consultation, home prep guidance, professional marketing, and access to a global network through Forbes Global Properties.
As a bilingual Realtor® (English-Spanish), I work with both national and international buyers—especially those relocating, upsizing, or investing in South Florida. I specialize in neighborhoods like Doral, Brickell, Coral Gables, Wynwood, and Miami Beach, where accurate pricing and strategic presentation are key to a successful sale.
3. What types of clients have you worked with?

3.-. Relocation Clients – Families and professionals relocating to Miami, needing neighborhood guidance, school information, and strategic planning.

4. Describe a recent transaction you are fond of. How did it go?
"During the first quarter of this year, I had the opportunity to work with two single-family homes—one for sale and the other for rent. The sale was particularly emotional, as it was driven by health-related reasons, and I wanted to support and respect the owners' process of letting go.
Within a month, the home had a buyer, secured during an open house I organized. At the same time, several prospective tenants were interested in the rental property. In the end, timing aligned perfectly—upon selling their home, my clients moved into the rental property I had listed, making for a seamless transition. Both properties were located in beautiful gated communities in Doral, adding to the overall satisfaction of the transaction."

Elizabeth helped me to buy my first home, some may relate as a very exciting yet exhausting treasure hunt. Elizabeth's endless patience, sweetness and compassion, sometimes realtor, sometimes friend and even psychologist, definitely made the difference and I bought my dream house. I chose her again, when the time came to downsize, to help me sell the house. In this case I was selling and looking to buy at the same time. It took us around 2 months to sell for an even better price than expected. Elizabeth helped in the transition to buy again and finally got my beautiful apartment. I recommend her all the way as a trustworthy, patient and diligent agent that will do all in her reach to give you what you need.
