Maria was amazing! She is punctual and efficient. Even though she is a busy realtor, I felt like we
were the only people she was working with. She made moves quickly when we wanted to move
forward with homes and gave us amazing advice along the way. We now live in a home that we
LOVE. I highly recommend Maria to any of our friends and family.

My interests were always a priority for Maria. She understood what I was looking for in a house and
did her best to find it. When I was looking, the market was flooded with cash buyers which put me
at a disadvantage. She quickly scheduled me for showings and submitted offers timely.

Great Agent.
I really enjoyed working with Maria on the purchase of my new home. I was in another state for most of the transaction and everything went very smoothly. She works with other top notch professionals, is super nice and fun, and the purchase was stress free.

In helping us find our home, we found Maria to be professional, personable, and patient. Professional in that she is knowledgeable of all facets of the reality business; personable in that she cared about helping us and patiently worked with us long-distance to help us find the perfect home for our needs. We would highly recommend Maria.

I live in Colorado and I am considering a second home so that I can be near my son and his family. Even though he lives in the Tampa area I felt that the city of Lakeland, FL would suit my needs and preferences. I was referred to Maria and she was very responsive and very prompt in locating homes that could be of interest to me. I made a special trip to FL to view the homes. Maria is very professional. There is no hard sell and I really felt that she was looking out for me and my interests. Although I have not yet made a decision to buy a home, Maria gave me her undivided attention nonetheless. She will be my go to person if I come back to FL to resume my search. And, I am confident if the "right home" comes to market, Maria will be contacting me promptly.

I can not say enough kind words about Maria. She is professional and knowledgeable. She listed my father’s home and had multiple offers the first week. I was out of state and Maria handled every detail keeping me informed during the entire process. She is without a doubt the best realtor that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I whole heartedly recommend Maria to anyone with a real estate need, she is the best!

Maria helped us purchase a home here in Lakeland over 10 years ago. We found her to be a friendly, hardworking realtor. She was always looking out for our best interest. Recently, she sold another property for us and, again, she was a tremendous help throughout the process. We always recommend Maria to our friends, neighbors, and, especially, our family who she has helped to sell and purchase properties. Maria Santillo is the only realtor in the Lakeland area that you need to call.
