FAQ
1. What advice would you give a buyer trying to purchase a home?
First I would have a zoom meeting with them to explain the process first. This can be very overwhelming and is one of the biggest decisions of their life. So sometimes it is baby steps! If it is an experienced buyer, I would still have a brief meeting with them to find out what their needs are to start. The advice follows after finding out more about their situation.
2. What advice would you give a seller trying to sell their home?
I would have a zoom meeting or face to face first. Ther are many questions to be asked along with the selling process of the home. I believe sellers need to be educated on how to sell their home and what is all involved.
3. What types of clients have you worked with?
Investors, wholesalers, first time buyers, sellers and also experienced buyers. I have also worked with buyers looking to purchase commercial properties.
4. Describe a recent transaction you are fond of. How did it go?
When I first got into real estate one of my first buyers I sold a townhouse to. This past year (4 years later or a bit more) she called me up to help find her and her new husband their first home! I sold their townhouse and got them in their first home that I won a multiple offer on. I NEVER lose touch with my clients. This was one of the more emotional times I had with someone!
5. How did you get started in Real Estate?
I was interested in real estate when I was 18 and went to a class with my mother. I thought I would never be able to accomplish this and stopped without any support from my family. 25 years later (give or take) I decided to pursue my dream and here I am. Loving every minute! I started with a top producing agent in my area and learned a tremendous amount. Then decided after a year or so to go on my own and build my own business!
6. Do you have any special education or training that will benefit your clients?
I have been in sales most of my life. I was a dental hygienist for 30 years! This profession you are very connected to your patients and have to teach and educate them. My family also has owned real estate for several years and I had been exposed to all of this. There is no class or special training I believe you need to put your clients needs first and educate and help them through the buying and selling process. Knowlege is key and being there for my clients from start to finish is what I do best. I will be closely connected with everyone involved in the transaction so it goes smoothly.

Monica is an amazing agent, after a long search recently closed on my dream home. Throughout the process on the house that was purchased as well as others that I had made offers on, she was right there every step of the way, keeping you grounded and working so hard for you. It almost like you are her only client, she is so responsive no matter what the question or issue. I would highly recommend her, she is super knowledgeable and has amazing expertise in all aspects of the real estate market.

I can't say enough great things about Monica. Monica is very down to earth. I felt like she really cared about me and my family. She worked with me to help sell my parents home during a stressful time. She was always there, going above and beyond, always keeping me in the loop and she was quick to respond when I reached out. With her help we sold my parents house the same day it went on the market.

Monica was wonderful to work with from our first meeting through the closing and beyond. She was very attentive, helpful and enthusiastic about getting our house sold. We had a positive experience throughout the entire process. I highly recommend working with Monica and her associate Pam at Remax. We will be recommending her to family and friends, as well as working with her again in the future. A + service!!

Monica did an amazing job with helping me purchase my first home. It was definitely a scary time, purchasing my first home during the holidays of 2022. But she walked me though every step. She went above and beyond in most areas of the process and I would highly recommend Monica to anyone looking to buy a home.

Monica is wonderful!!! She has been incredibly patient with a picky buyer and a low budget. We saw numerous houses for over a year until the right one was found. She worked with me and knew just what I was looking for. Monica is not afraid to give her opinion and discuss likes and concerns. Monica is very knowledgeable, and clearly discussed with me everything I needed to know about buying my first house. Monica comes highly recommended!

Monica is wonderful, Id rate her 10 stars if I could! She is so hard working, responsive, patient, and kind. She truly cares for her clients! We were first time home buyers and Monica was so warm and welcoming from the first time we met her. She wrote a book and gave it to us our first showing which answered so many questions we had. Monica went above and beyond in the home search for us until we found our perfect home. Monica is an incredible person and made us feel comfortable and at ease through the whole process. She even gave us pep talks after we were heartbroken from getting offers rejected and kept persevering until we got our keys for our first home! Monica kept us informed and encouraged through all of the processes with the lender and the negotiating with the seller, etc, and explained everything to us so we understood clearly as it was happening. She answered any and all of our questions and always responded to us so quickly. She fought for us until we got our keys to our first home only 2 months after getting pre approved by the bank! She happily showed us around 15 homes and accommodated our crazy work schedules while doing so, even if she went out of her way to make it happen. The whole experience felt like working with a close friend, Monica had our best interests in mind and truly cares for her clients. Id recommend Monica to anyone, she makes a stressful process so easy and exciting and stays with you until the end. Thank you Monica!

Monica is the best realtor I have had in my two-year search. I was trying to buy semi long-distance and she did everything she could to save me time and trouble and money. I can honestly say she is the hardest working Realtor I have had the pleasure of working with. You will not regret your experience with her. She was honest, gave professional advice, was forthright with me and very patient. Wonderful

Our son was attending college at Duquesne University, and we decided to purchase a property for him to live rather than rent a location. We contacted Monica, and she was fantastic through the whole process. She never tired with showing us multiple listings, and she always provided accurate and timely information. We would definitely recommend Monica, and we would not hesitate to use her again.

Monica was professional and friendly from the start of our adventure and newborn relationship. She took me to many homes based on my wants; and continued to provide homes that meant my desire. We finally came upon my home of homes; and she provided professional advice and information for me to close on my first PA home. I felt as if i was her only client; as she provided me with all her time and answered questions and responded in a timely fashion. Monica was with me in the beginning wanting to understand my wants and continued through my search of homes; and was absolutely awesome through closing. The process was seamless; and required little effort on my part (especially; since I was out of state purchasing my first PA house. Monica; till this day; follows up on me in my new home; and continues to ensure my happiness. I recommend Monica to anyway who is in search of a home.
