★★★★★
"I have recommended Betsy whole heartedly on several occasions and wanted to echo the same here for others reading. I have found working with Betsy a pleasure personally, but most importantly was impressed by her unmatched level of professionalism and knowledge of the market. I was very comfortable working with Betsy through a couple of difficult situations, always trusting her to protect and represent my interests. Betsy is absolutely amazing at instant follow-up and turn-around on questions and concerns with always timely, valuable and accurate advice and feedback. Million thanks!"

"Looking to sell or buy a home and need a real estate agent? Look no further than Laura Zelnick from Compass. She helped my wife and I acquire our forever home by professionally providing unyielding attention to every detail and by making sure all parties were kept informed throughout the process. For a fast sale, fast purchase, and fast closing"

"I worked with Betsy on both the purchase and sale of my Miami Beach condo. Betsy’s knowledge of the area, as well as the time she spent getting to know me, helped me find the perfect home. When family circumstances had me move, Betsy immediately made the process simple for me to leave town while her team handled the entire sales process, for a great profit. I couldn’t recommend working with Betsy and her team enough." - Glenn
