Great place to work. I love meeting & helping people. Learning about property Mgmt has been so interesting. Helping people sell & buy their homes in Florida has been fun too. While keeping my freedom & flexibility I have the opportunity to help others achieve their dreams of home ownership, passive rental income & a comfortable place to live which fulfills me.

Sonia was amazing, knowledgeable, and so easy to deal with. Her knowledge in the business came in handy while she was working behind the scenes to make sure we didnt have any issues down the road with a shared boat launch on the property I bought.

I have been a tenant in a rental that was managed by this group (for two years). I highly recommend! Florida Treasure Realty is always immediately responsive to getting any of my needs met. In addition, when I was ready to move out and into a rental, this company did a fantastic job helping me look for a new place. I appreciate the honesty, hard work and genuine concern they have for their tenants and clients.
