“What a journey it has been. But it has a happy ending thanks to Florence Ropelewski and her amazing team at L’AGENCE Napa Valley in selling two of our homes in this tumultuous real estate market. You see, we did it backwards. We bought the new home first, a risky move, without regard to selling our existing homes in Napa and Concord. Now, with a cooling market, we were compelled to sell our properties as soon as possible. When it came to choosing our agent to represent our properties, only one name came to the forefront of consideration, Florence Ropelewski. We met Florence several months earlier during an open house in the neighborhood. Right away we established an instant rapport. Her engaging attitude and thoroughness in her answers to our questions left a very favorable impression. She came across as professional, competent and trustworthy, as well as a great neighbor; we could easily see her representing us. Florence’s expertise in the Napa market was evident from our first meeting. She provided detailed analysis of the trends, comps and the direction we should be focusing on. We also admired her transparency and honesty in telling us what we needed to hear, not just what we’d like to hear. When she suggested we make considerable improvements to the Napa house before putting it out into this challenging environment, she backed the pros and cons with concrete and compelling evidence, which was enough to get us on board. It was the right move. She brought in her expert builder and stylist, Ulrika Edin, who helped create this stunning transformation. This was further enhanced with on-point staging and photography, with the end result being a house worthy of gracing the cover of a coffee table book. Florence’s assessment of the true potential value of our home, and her ability to bring in the experts to transform and create a strong marketing plan which included digital and social media, strongly prepared us and our house for this daunting Napa market.”

“ I cannot recommend Florence and her Agency highly enough to do her incredible efforts justice. I decided to go with Florence after reading her stellar reviews, and knowing intuitively that having someone local to sell my Napa home was vital. Not only was I not disappointed, I was blown away at the amount of work she out into my home as well as her expert advice given as she guided me through the process. I live out of state, I had two renters to vacate and the house needed so much work! Florence took care of EVERYTHING! I’ve never had a realtor be so involved, so dedicated and for so much for me. It was a revelation. I didn’t have to lift a finger, which came as a huge relief. On top of doing all the hard lifting, Florence developed a plan to generate excitement around my house that would allow for it to sell quickly in an otherwise stagnant market. I had been resistant to some of the things she recommend we do with my previous realtor, but Florence was able to explain the reasons for her suggestions in a way that made me see the sense in them and get on board. Her plan worked flawlessly. The investments I made in a) getting inspections done ahead of listing (no surprises to cause backing out) and b) fixing up and staging beautifully (making the house shine like a gem) and c) listing at a competitive price to generate a bidding war worked like a charm and we had an offer within hours at $50,000 above asking to secure the deal. I followed her advice even when part of me wanted to do less, invest less and ask for more, because I felt I could really trust her judgment. And it worked. She did all the work. I signed a few documents. I’m still in shock at how flawlessly the plan worked. It took less than 30 days from renters vacating to listing and getting the offer. I could never recommend Florence highly enough. She was just incredible. Oh!!!! AND she communicated with me everyday, explained every document, and was always available and attentive. If you want THIS experience, go with Florence.”
