About me:
Pitina Stucky is one of Maryland’s leading real estate agents. A native of Madrid, Spain, and long time resident of Paris, France, she is tri-lingual, dynamic, and a skilled negot
iator with an extensive background in international banking and finance. Pitina is adept at recognizing the needs of a high-end clientele, serves both the local and the international community, and brings to the negotiating table an unusual breadth of expertise. Her passion is to serve the community, in order to help people to realize their dream of buying a home or investment property. Moving to America with her American husband and her son in 2005, Pitina began her real estate career just as the bubble burst, and has weathered the worst market since the Great Depression- a time when many seasoned realtors left the business unable to make sales. This was an intense tutorial in the dynamics of residential real estate- including the intricacies of foreclosures, short sales, and relocations, as well as conventional sales. Pitina has met these challenges with enthusiasm and skill, building a loyal clientele network through outstanding personal service, attention to contract details, and excellent negotiation skills. Her international experience and linguistic skills allow her not only to reach a diverse clientele, but her personal experience of culture shock in moving to a new city, or even country, make her extremely sympathetic to the needs of people for whom a move may be only part of a major change in their lives. She has served homeowners of all types and income brackets, both American and international, with a charm and generosity of spirit that has won her the admiration of both her clients and her peers throughout the Baltimore-Washington metropolitan area. Pitina’s professional background is as diverse as her cultural background. Educated first in the Lycée Français in Madrid, she then attended Madrid’s prestigious University, ICADE, where she earned the European equivalent of a Master’s Degree in Business Administration. Following graduation, she began working in banking at the Indosuez Bank, initially in Madrid, then Brussels, and finally in Paris, where she lived for fourteen years. She was in the International Purchasing Department of the bank, doing world-wide cost optimization for financial data providers, and was the head buyer for external technological consulting services. She also worked as an internal consultant for the Capital Market Department in Paris, and managed the back office’s handling of the transition from the franc to the euro, as well as capital market migration for Europe. In addition, she was an independent consultant for the Linux Company, Mandriva. Wanting a new challenge, she then left banking and began to work for the British-owned insurance company Aviva, in their Paris office. There she was in charge of contract negotiations for their IT Purchasing Department, dealing also with intellectual property rights. While in Paris, she began buying and remodeling property for herself, and discovered that she really loved real estate. In Paris she met an American writer, sculptor and linguist from Baltimore, and a few months after their marriage, emigrated with him and her son to the U.S., with the dream of going into real estate full-time.
