It's this insight and experience that can often be the difference between you getting top dollar or leaving money on the table for your home, overpaying or getting a great deal, finding the right property for you or missing out on it, and selling or buying a property fully informed or missing critical things during inspection periods that can ultimately cost you down the road.

Mariela Velazquez is a full-service Realtor®, aligned with a full-service brokerage and professional team of business partners, handling everything for you, from pre-market preparation & staging, to both cutting-edge, digital marketing and traditional advertising, to contracts and paperwork, to disclosures, keeping you protected, to negotiating in YOUR best interest, to navigating you through the entire escrow process and so much more.

Our passion is PEOPLE -- helping people by sharing and educating based on our knowledge. I love to educate and guide homeowners and will ALWAYS put PEOPLE BEFORE THINGS.
