Welcome to my website!
My name is Sima Monina and I'd like to tell you a bit about myself. Growing up in Israel where I worked for 15 years at the bank in the foreign exchange department, I got the chance to learn how to handle and exchange currency from different countries. I speak multiple languages; English, French, Hebrew and Spanish, which aid me in communicating with foreign national clients.
In 1995, my family and I moved to the United States, where I worked for a builder company who conducted business with investors from overseas. Somewhere along the way I developed a passion for helping others sell and buy their future homes.
When I purchased my first home with my husband, I realized that a home is the place where memories are made and dreams come true.
In 2009 I decided to pursue my passion and get my real estate sales associate license. In addition to that, I decided to expand my education and in 2010 I got my designation from the National Association of Realtors® (NAR) for Certified International Property Specialist (CIPS), which specializes in assisting foreign nationals with purchasing property in the U.S.
I am a trained real estate professional with expert skills at communication, presentation, marketing locally and globally, negotiation and sales.
If you are selling your home, are a first time home-buyer or looking to purchase a second/vacation home, I am here to assist you with all your real estate needs and make your dream come true as well.
A home is not a home because of it's room dimensions or the color of the walls. It's about how you feel when you walk through the front door, and the way you can instantly envision your life unfolding there. This is about more than real estate. It's about your life and your dreams. I take a different approach to real estate by first and more importantly I listen.
I understand that buying or selling a home is more than just a transaction: it’s a life-changing experience. I believe that by listening to the client and taking the time to understand their requirements is the first step in establishing a professional, win-win relationship.
That’s why I am dedicated to providing exceptional, personalized service for all of my clients. I take great pride in the relationships I build and always work relentlessly on the client’s behalf to help them achieve their real estate goals.
I am a full time Residential Realtor® I serve local, national and International clients. I am Certified International Property Specialist (CIPS) and Transnational Referral Certified (TRC) that specializes me in assisting foreign nationals with purchasing property in the U.S.
I offer a strong combination of local expertise and International real estate connections.
My Mission Statement:
My philosophy is simple: clients come first. I pledge to be in constant communication with my clients, keeping them fully informed throughout the entire buying or selling process. I believe that if you’re not left with an amazing experience, I haven’t done my job. I don’t measure success through achievements or awards, but through the satisfaction of my clients.
I appreciate the opportunity to earn your business.
