It is with great pleasure and confidence that we highly recommend Pina Rao, our real estate agent for the last twelve years! We have bought three houses with Pina’s help and recommended her to many of our friends and family over the years, and everyone who used her was thrilled. She is dedicated; the only reason we got our dream house was because she showed it to us hours after we phoned her, and was up early the next day to get our offer in first! She gives great advice without being pushy or opinionated, and really listened to our needs and worked with us at meeting them. She is organized and always came to showings and signings of contracts prepared and with all the information we would require. Finally, Pina is a great communicator and was invaluable with helping us make the right decisions with buying, selling and staging our homes. Thank goodness I did, for we ended up with a house that exceeded our dreams!! We recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

Thanks once again for the fantastic work you’ve done for me. This is the third house you’ve helped me to sell, and the third one you’ve helped me buy. I know that I can rely on you for providing honest, straight-forward advice to help me get my house ready to sell. I’ll never forget what a difference simply painting the basement floor made to the Roxton Road house. I never would have thought of that, and I’ll bet it added at least $10 000 to the selling price. I can also count on you to find me houses that fit my needs and personality. You don’t just listen to what I say I’m looking for, you also listen to what I like about the houses we see. I like the fact that you aren’t afraid to show me houses that are a little unusual. Most of all, I appreciate your honest assessment of a house. That’s why by accident, actually, I wasn’t really “looking seriously”), I still wanted your opinion of it. My parents, too, are delighted with your help in our current move. We all believe that we couldn’t have done it without you.

What I really appreciated with Pina is that she made an effort to really get clear sense of what features I was looking for in a home and what kind oflifestyle I wanted to live. Very quickly we eliminated certain types of buildings and specific neighborhoods. She was very good at focusing me and not overloading me with too much information. She also did not hesitate to suggest a neighborhood or dwelling that I may not have not thought of if she thought I might like it. As it turned out, the loft I bought was in a neighborhood I never really considered… Kensington Mar­ket… and that was her idea! I knew I wanted it from the minute we walked in the front door! Thanks Pina.. .it was all a wonderful experience and just keeps getting better day by day!

When my husband and I decided to buy our first home we were under a tight time schedule. We approached several real estate agents to find someone to help us with our purchase. One agent tried to sell us a condo during our first meeting, another told us to locate the house we wanted and to let him know which one it was. Pina was the only agent who actually sat down with us and asked us what our needs and wants were. She went out of her way to be flexible and to provide us with information to make a housing choice that fit our needs. Pina is extremely professional and pleasant and always strives to make sure that her clients are satisfied with their buying or selling experience. It is obvious that she is well informed about the latest trends in the real estate market and we have since sold and bought another house thought her. We have been very pleased with Pina’s services and do not hesitate to refer her to any of our family and friends.

I have had the pleasure to work with Pina Rao-Wittersheim in the purchase and sale of my 2 homes. I truly admire her patience, knowledge, truthfulness, and amazing negotiating skills. Pina really works hard and truly understands my needs and individuality. I meet a lot of real estate agents through my line of work, and Pina is very unique in her style of business techniques, and I was very pleased to have her help me in my real estate needs.

Pina helped us buy two houses and sell one. From day one, she made a difficult process as painless as possible, she never gave us a hard time no matter how neurotic we got. It was more like having your sister working for you than an Real Estate Agent, always being considerate to our needs, and always being honest and genuine. She knows how things worked, and she educated us throughout the whole buying and selling process. Pina got us a great price for our house and an even better deal on the house we bought.
