with her husband Jim. Prior to becoming a licensed Realtor® Luz was a manager for a computer software consulting company where Luz became proficient at listening to the needs of her clients and translating those needs into software design specifications. She finds these skills transfer well into real estate where she counsels home buyers and sellers, determining their needs, then ‘designing’ a plan to help her clients meet their goals.
Luz actively invests in real estate and believes that owning investment property is an excellent way to save for retirement.
Luz has earned the Home-Staging Specialist (AHS) Accreditation and has successfully helped clients stage their properties resulting in quicker sales at higher prices.
Sonia Roman was born in Bogota, Colombia (South America). Sonia came to Miami in 2001 to develop her skills in English that she had learned in school. After a year she decided to come to USC to formally study and fell in love with southern hospitality. She planned on sta
ying three months. That was six years ago.
Sonia’s interest in real estate properties began early in life. Her father, a civil engineer, would bring her to construction sites during weekends and teach her about the construction process. However, it was eight moves in seven years that sparked her passion for real estate buying and selling. She knows first hand how challenging transitions can be and how important it is to be guided by someone who is knowledgeable and experienced.
Sonia holds a Bachelor of Arts in Industrial Design. She has over nine years of experience in account management combined with graphic design. Six of these years were in the export business. This provided her the opportunity to interact with clients all over the world. From this she has gained an understanding of other cultures, the importance of recognizing their needs, and what it takes to meet their expectations. Having someone you trust, and with whom you feel comfortable, is invaluable in navigating the process of buying, or selling, a home.
