"We recently decided to move from Florida to a new home out of State. We have lived in Florida for forty-eight years and have raised our family there. You can imagine the stress of such a move, not only physically and mentally, but also emotionally. We were so fortunate to engage Valentina Tischenko of Compass Realty as our Selling Agent. Valentina was a godsend. She guided us through the entire process, the inspections, disclosures, all the paperwork from contract to closing. She actually has continued to be helpful and has stayed involved in our move beyond the closing of title. Her involvement also included helping us find charities to donate unwanted furniture, clothing, and household goods. She organized and helped us go through our belongings, which eased the emotional trauma of letting go of some of our memories. I would certainly say that anyone thinking of buying or selling a home would be fortunate to have Valentina on their team."

"Valentina did an outstanding job selling my house! From the very beginning in September 2024, she was proactive, organized, and completely committed to getting the job done. She kept me informed throughout the process and handled every step with professionalism and expertise. Her dedication and persistence made all the difference, and I always felt confident that I was in great hands. The sale went smoothly, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Valentina to anyone looking for a top-tier realtor!"

"Valentina did an outstanding job assisting us with the purchase of the condo. She knew the area, educated us on the process, listened to what we were looking for, kept an eye on the market for just the right property and most of all was patient and easy to work with! We were so fortunate to have had her as our real estate agent."

"We have known Valentina for 20 yr + and she was always passionate and dedicated to everything she did so when we decided to sell our home we called her. She was amazing and so focused on every detail and always available to answer our questions and calm our nerves… meant everything to us as it all happened quickly and she is our guardian Angel! You definitely need her on your side!"

"We started working with Valentina initially for a rental property. After seeing a few and researching the rental market a bit more we were a little discouraged by the prices for renting a single familly home and ultimately decided to buy instead. We made this decision very late, with only 31 days from deciding to purchase to our lease ending, so we had to move fast. Valentina went right to work and in the blink of an eye had 16 houses lined up for us to look at and then dedicated 2 full days in a row to making sure we saw all of them ASAP! All of them fit our price range, desired locations, and other requirements. She took the time to help us write out our pros and cons of all the houses we liked and ensure we picked the absolute best one for us. When we saw the house we did end up buying, it was really love at first sight and thanks to Valentina's commitment, communication, and incredible determination we were able to close on the home in 26 days! She was excellent working with the seller and his agent as well, helping to make sure they took care of a few small issues and loose ends on the property before we closed and moved in, as well as getting us a fantastic deal overall. I cannot say enough good things about Valentina and how she made the house buying process a fun and enjoyable experience. This is our first house and because we decided to purchase on such a tight timeline we really had to learn on the go. She always took the time to explain every step clearly, answer all our silly questions, and keep the process moving forward until closing. We thought we were in for endless headaches and stress, but thanks to Valentina the entire process was enjoyable. She's the best!"

"It was a very rewarding and amazing experience working with Valentina. Home buying and selling is an extremely stressful and emotional process and Valentina was there every step of the way. She's thoughtful, smart, creative, knowledgeable and always looks out for your best interest. I highly recommend her!!"

"I recently made a long distance move and Valentina was instrumental in making this move minimally stressful. She went above and beyond to not only organize video tours of rental properties but also to speak with neighbours and drive around the area to give me opinions on the neighbourhoods. I have never felt so confident in a move. Valentina is friendly, efficient and knowledgeable and I will absolutely work with her again for my next move."

"Valentina was diligent, respectful, knowledgeable, informative, helpful and a go-getter. She implored every real estate option to ensure that our house had the best possible exposure and highest opportunity to be viewed and sold. We were in constant contact throughout the entire process from the “Coming Soon” through the inspections to the final transactions. Even with the pandemic hurdles impacting open houses and face-to-face interactions, Valentina helped us to navigate all the necessary steps, always looking ahead, but working with us. There was a genuine relationship established beyond just a business transaction and we are grateful for her constant work ethic. Her positive mindset aligned with our goals and we welcomed the fresh outlook. We regularly held 3-way conference calls, group texts and emails due to our geographical work challenges. This never presented any difficulties and every aspect of the process was negotiated with care and competence. The end result was a successful sale at our asking price and an on-time closing. I would not hesitate to recommend Valentina to anyone looking for a determined and positive professional dedicated to ensuring that the sale process is as smooth as it can be with a continual focus on “your” needs as the client, seller and friend. Thank you Valentina for being a part of the process with us. You have been a part of our “bigger goals” and were an instrumental force in making that happen. Cheers!!"

"Working with Valentina was a pleasure! Her positive energy is infectious. I cannot thank her enough for assisting me with my rental property. Her constant communication left no questions unanswered. Valentina you truly love what you do and it shows! I am impressed with your impeccable business etiquette. After leasing my property, you continued to follow up with me to ensure everything was on track; that did not go unnoticed. Thank you! Nikki D"
