★★★★★
Monica is very knowledgeable about the areas and locations where I was seeking a property. She listened to my requirements and I was able to find a home that I truly enjoy. Monica is very patient and responds quickly. She cares. I also learned a lot about buying a home in Texas and it was a very valuable experience. She helped me get the best price for my new home. She is also very resourceful for various options that you may need in your home. It helps when you do not have those contacts. I highly recommend Monica as an agent. THANK YOU Monica for all your help, support, and friendship.

This is the second time that I have worked with Monica, and quite simply, she is fabulous. She is responsive, professional and a delight to work with. She takes care of every detail; researches properties; provides honest feedback on properties and the process in general. I would recommend her to friends, and I plan to use her for future transactions.

Monica Finkelstein was the most knowledgeable of all the agents I interview prior to listing the property. Her professionalism, understanding of the market, and the input to staging, pricing, and negotiating the sale was invaluable. She was constantly in communication with me during entire process. As a real estate investor, I have worked with a number of agents but none as harder working or more in tuned with the realty industry than Monica.
Recognized as a top-producing agent, Monica lived in multiple cities, both foreign and domestic, before calling Houston home for the past decade. She has forged long-term client relationships built on her consummate professionalism, industry knowledge, stellar negotiating skills, and most importantly, white glove service. Monica's clients always come first. She prides herself on being responsive, proactive and accessible. In the words of one client, "Monica is honest, responsive, knowledgeable, diligent and most importantly, she cares about her clients".
Monica graduated cum laude from Dedman College of Law (Southern Methodist University). She was inducted into the Order of the Coif, named a Hutchison Fellow (full merit scholarship), and was an editor of the SMU Law Review. She received her BA magna cum laude in Chinese History and Political Science from Colorado College and studied Mandarin Chinese as a PICAS Fellow at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor.
In her spare time, Monica likes spending time with her husband, two adult children and three fur babies. She enjoys playing Sudoku, practicing Vinyasa Yoga, and attending live performances of Musicals and Chamber Music. Monica believes in serving her community and actively donates to Houston PetSet, the Juvenile Diabetes Research Fund, and various performing arts organizations.
