"As the previous broker/owner of Galleria International Realty I have had the opportunity to observe literally hundreds of real estate agents practicing their trade. After my retirement from real estate I choose one, if not the best in the industry, Kimberly DeSocio to to represent me in the sale of one of my properties. Kimberly possesses two qualities which are of paramount importance to her chosen field: attention to detail and ability to negotiate. I am able to recommend Kimberly with all sincerity and without reservation whatsoever. "

  -Michael Lichtenfeld, Colleague

"Kim is the best in her industry! She is a priceless resource in real estate and also what is going on around town. She has access to information that most don't have and is absolutely one of the nicest people I know. I definitely recommending starting with Kim no matter what the issue is. If for any reason Kim cant help you, she can definitely get you to right person."

""Dear Kim, It was wonderful to have you represent us in purchasing the unit in The River House. We were very impressed with your ability to understand what we wanted and needed. You got the job done beautifully, it was especially appreciated after our disappointing experience with our first realtor. During the sale we liked that you were very detail oriented in negotiating on our behalf. When we called, you answered the phone and you were always available for us. A nice touch considering our 3 hour time difference. Your follow through with the repairs after the sale was complete was superb. We would recommend you without question to anyone looking in your area for a home. Living in California, we really needed you and you were there for us. Thank you for everything, "

She has incredible market insight and has proven invaluable in putting together a “go to market” plan. She is always timely with responses and goes above and beyond with her commitment to getting a deal done. We highly recommend!"

"I met Kim through an ad that she ran for a property at the Las Olas River house in Fort Lauderdale. I was very impressed with her professionalism and her enthusiasm.

She was very organized, knowledgeable, responsive, and honest. I recommend her highly. "

"Dear Ms. DeSocio,  Thank you for your assistance and representation in the recent sale of my property. Your efforts were extremely professional. Not only were your multiple follow ups timely-even contacting me on evenings weekends- but your personable demeanor made me feel confident and at ease from the outset.  When the occasional snag in the sales process arose, you quickly resolved these in dealing with the buyer's broker, while protecting my interests. Your appropriate advice and counsel were invaluable.  Not only was I completely satisfied with your services and would enthusiastically recommend you to prospective clients, but, should the occasion arise, I would seek you out in any future real estate dealings I might have in the future in southern Florida.  "

  -Gerald P. - New York, Client

"Best realtor in South Florida! We can't speak highly enough of our experience with Kim. We were looking for a beach condo with very little knowledge about how to find the right place. We met with a couple of realtors before Kim, but we knew instantly that she was the one for us. She is honest and hands-on, and she really helped to take the pressure off of us. We never felt forced to make an offer and when we finally found the "one" and ended up in a bidding war, Kim walked us through every step of the negotiations, even she wrote a email to the sellers to explain why we thought they should choose us. It was an unconventional approach but it worked and we thank Kim for that every day. If you are buying or selling a property I recommend Kim all the way because she is simply the best."

  -Luis Labori, Client

"Great experience all around! Kim sold our home quickly and took care of all the details! She even helped with getting it cleaned up prior to the walk thru. I would Definitely recommend her!!!"

  -Cristina Callahan - Florida , Client

  -Carol R. - Florida, Client

"Best experience I have ever had purchasing a property, professional, beyond knowledgeable and on direct point with all facets of the procedure. Keep in mind I was purchasing a property 1500 miles from home and KIM made the entire procedure hassle free and direct informative communication within minutes of every detail. "

  -Karen A. - Rhode Island, Client

""Kim, as foreign investors interested in South Florida real estate, I want to thank you personally for helping us in the purchase of our two investment homes in the Miami area! From our first introduction to Closing, throughout the process of finding the right properties, you were extremely helpful in guiding us through and looking after our interests locally ! Your experience and professionalism and above all your patience and great attitude exhibited with your keen attention to details is what in all sincerity, we believe, sets you apart! Congratulations! "

  -Frank & Eva - Canada, Client

"Kim was a pleasure to work with all the way from NJ. My parents aren't very tech savvy, so Kim and I spoke maybe once or twice about the things they were looking for in their dream vacation home. Kim lined up all the showings and my parents flew down. They found their home on their first trip down there. No stress and seamless. If you are looking for a home in Florida use Kim, she knows her stuff and will make it as stress free as possible. They are there every month now. They love their home so much! Kim also helped with interior design too, her taste is impeccable! "

  -Gina F. - New Jersey , Client

""Dear Kim, I wanted to let you know how impressed I have been with you. As you know, I have been practicing in the area of real estate for over fifteen years, and have been involved with hundreds of transactions, and have met and worked with many realtors throughout that time. I can comfortably say that you are easily one of the most thorough, efficient, practical and honest realtors I have worked with. As with any area of law, real estate brings with it its share of issues and complications in almost each and every matter we handle. Your ability to handle and resolve those issues as an advocate for your clients without losing sight of the big picture is what I have been most impressed with. I am a strong believer that you can’t be great at something you are not passionate about. Your passion in real estate and your clients is clear. I look forward closing many more deals together.
