🏡 It's LIVE — 10 Cordia Ct, Homosassa, FL is officially on the market!

https://portal.onehome.com/en-US/share/2873571E80051

The wait is over! One of our most anticipated listings has just hit the market and we couldn't be more excited to share it with you. Nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac in Citrus County, this meticulously maintained 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home with a private den/study was built in 2019 and has been thoughtfully upgraded throughout.

The screened-in heated saltwater pool and hot tub — added in 2023 — are an absolute showstopper, complete with Wi-Fi-controlled lights and pump so you can set the perfect ambiance from your phone. The pool bathroom connects directly to the outdoor living area, making entertaining easy and effortless. The primary suite offers a private entry to the pool, double walk-in closets, and a spa-like en suite with dual vanities and a private water closet.

Inside, you'll find new light fixtures, an indoor laundry room with LG washer and dryer, and a flexible den/study perfect for a home office. Outside, the greenbelt running behind the property provides privacy and peaceful views. Gutters, a full irrigation system, and an exterior termite protection system are already in place.
Major systems — roof, HVAC, and water heater — are all 2019, giving you true peace of mind. And this home is in NO evacuation zone and NO flood insurance is required — a rare and valuable find in Florida!

Conveniently located just 2 miles from the Suncoast Parkway, this Homosassa gem offers easy access to Tampa, Crystal River, and everything the Nature Coast has to offer.

Don't wait on this one — homes like this don't last! Reach out to Valentin, Real Estate Agent or I today to schedule your private showing!

Otherwise, feel free to stop by the open house this Sunday, July 12th from noon to 2pm hosted by Jackie Lundin!

"We've never had a realtor consistently go above and beyond the way Stephanie did."

I've read that about ten times now. What gets me isn't the compliment — it's the "we've never had." Somewhere along the line, these sellers had an experience that taught them to expect less. And that's the part I want to talk about.

Selling a home is a strange kind of vulnerable. You're letting strangers walk through your kitchen and judge it. You're waiting on news you can't control. So from the day we listed 10 Cordia Ct, the goal was simple: they never had to chase us. Weekly updates. Straight answers about the market, including the ones that weren't fun. Showing up for the open house, the photos, the flyers, all of it — and doing it with the same energy in September that we had in July.

Although this testimonial only mentions my name, it was absolutely a joint effort. Diana and I got to do this one together, and I'm grateful for a partner who holds that standard without being asked or always necessarily directly acknowledged.

To our sellers — thank you. Congratulations. Enjoy what's next.

Getting a house ready to sell starts long before it goes live.

This Saturday it started at 7am with Foxtail coffee in hand. Stephanie Quarles, Real Estate Agent and I spent the morning with our sellers — moving furniture to open up the flow, packing away the personal pieces, cleaning top to bottom, and sorting out what could be donated instead of moved twice.

Buyers decide how they feel about a home in the first few seconds of walking in. A space that feels open, clean, and cared for shows better, photographs better, and sells better. That prep work is something we do alongside our clients, not something we hand them on a checklist.

Photos next. Then the fun part!

Congratulations to Mariah & Jesse, who officially became first-time homeowners today! ❤️

They weren’t looking for just any house. They wanted their dream home, the way they wanted it, in the area they wanted — and today, they got the keys! 🥹🔑

With the help of Florida’s Hometown Heroes Program and an amazing team — Stephanie Quarles, Real Estate Agent , Morgan Gall, and myself Diana Valentin — we were able to walk beside them and help turn that dream into reality.

This is why we do what we do. ❤️

Think homeownership may be out of reach? It may be closer than you think. Let’s talk.

✨ Your first home could be next. 🏡
