Wendy, Please feel free to use us as a reference. We are very thankful that we found your web site. Your experience and knowledge with short sales made all the difference.

Jack & Donna Eaves, Santa Rosa Beach, FL

"Customer service! She stayed on top of every detail possible and kept me informed every step of the way. Wendy is the best at what she does! The mortgage companies, however, well they could take a lesson from Wendy!"

Deah Hollan, Santa Rosa Beach, FL

Getting it done! Wendy's marketing strategy, advice regarding price and condition, and her overall attention to detail got the job done in a tough market. Even though we were supported by a professional relocation company, we came to rely on Wendy - she's simply fantastic. Wendy you did it!

Andrea Hidinger, Niceville home

"Wendy Rulnick has listed and sold my properties for over 10 years. In that time she has performed a great service to my business, at the highest professional standards. Wendy is an able manager, great communicator, and creative marketing representative. In addition, Wendy sets the standard for ethics and knowledge of the law as it applies to real estate transactions. Her firm has exclusively listed the property that our companies develop and build. She is our "go to" person for advertising, marketing and market analysis. Wendy brings all the best attributes to the table in a business deal, she's personable, generates great results, is creative and is a great value!! I make this recommendation without any reservations."

Wendy and her staff always returned our calls, kept us updated! They are fantastic with communications. They were always very positive and thoughtful. The attitude from Wendy was always "When we sell your property" not "If we sell your property". I wish we knew all of this before we used other agents in the past.

Susan and Hans McMinamin

Hi Wendy,

I wanted to say a great big "THANK YOU" for your amazing blogs about this crazy short sale market we've got on our hands!! I feel your pain way over here on the East Coast of Florida! I am involved with 6 short sales at the moment and sometimes I think I'm all alone in this mess. Your blogs are always SO insightful and ALWAYS full of useful information. I wish every single agent in Florida would subscribe to your blog. It is so educational and full of practical information I can share with my clients AND fellow agents. I appreciate the time and energy you put into every post. You seem to have a knack for posting information that is "needed" at that moment! I have used your information many times when trying to explain the in's and out's of a short sale. I've even told a few uninformed agents to "go read your post!!" Your "myth-busters" blog about short sales was amazing. So many "rumors" and made up rules are floating around, it's nice to know that someone actually knows what they're talking about! Your experience shows with every post. You can honestly say, "been there-done that" about almost any glitch that we run across with short sales.

Ronda Densford, REALTOR

Stayed on top of things. Very Professional.

Wendy and her staff have great communication and follow through.

Nancy Beukenkamp, Niceville home

I must say, where others wouldn't or couldn't you succeeded in the sale of my Janet street property with professionalism and style. I am sincerely grateful, and wish you the best in all future endeavors. Again, thank you.

Dante Moricoli, Navarre house

"Wendy Rulnick did a thorough pre-listing market analysis, wonderful advertising, continual updates, and prompt response to any and all questions. We felt that our house was their #1 priority, even if it wasn't. We would recommend Wendy Rulnick & Associates to our friends and neighbors."

Lisa H. Mullins, Mary Esther home

"Very knowledgeable about local real estate pricing and brought examples to review with us before establishing a price for our home. As market conditions changed, kept us informed as to how it might impact the showing of our home. We had an offer on our home around the holidays. Wendy was going out of town, but continued to keep us informed of offers, even calling once from the airport. We really appreciated her professionalism and commitment to helping us sell our home. Excellent about returning phone calls and accessible. Excellent about keeping us informed as to the closing status."

Pamela Sutcliffe

Wendy,

Your aggressiveness, follow-up and honesty were your assets in the quick sale of our home.... Not only did you work for us, you worked with us. Keep up the good work!

Henry Poczobut

"Wendy's services to me were excellent. She was organized, professional and very interested in my concerns. She kept me updated regularly and was most creative in selling my condo. I had tried to sell it four years ago with the agent who originally sold me my condo, without even a "nibble". Wendy is also warm and personable. A five star real estate agent!"

Mary Ellen Crowe

Thanks for all your efforts on our behalf. You really did a fantastic job -- and when I compare the results you got (showings and offers) to the previous year, I am truly amazed!

Best of luck, and I hope the market turns around ... although you might be better off if it stays slow -- anybody can sell homes in a good market!

Dave Hidinger

Wendy:

Thank you so much for your "above and beyond the line of duty" assistance. Elva and I certainly enjoyed meeting and working with you. You are certainly a superb agent. Best wishes.

Dear Wendy:

Clark and I want you to know how much we appreciate your efforts and those of your staff in selling our Beacon's property. I know it wasn't easy, but you persisted anyway. It was a pleasure to meet you, and we hope to meet you again.

Sincerely,

Patricia Grosvenor

"Wendy, I think you were just great- helpful, nice and very professional without being pushy or pressuring and also very patient. Thanks for everything.

Dear Wendy,

Thank you very much for serving us so well. Your constant communication via e-mail, copies of ads, etc. let us know that you were truly working for us (and at 400 miles away, that is important!).

Yours is only the real estate commission I have ever felt pleased to pay. Greg Masciana

Wendy and her staff went above and beyond in aiding us in the sale of our townhouse. We were very pleased with the way we were taken care of. We would recommend them to anyone!!!

Ken and Tammy Nocera

Dear Wendy,

The fact that my referral resulted in a sale for you is no surprise. I only recommend the best. From the time we met, your efforts were tireless and your professionalism exceptional. You reassured me with proficient, reliable answers to my seemingly endless questions

As a seasoned professional, you conducted a thorough market analysis and paid diligent attention to prospective buyers, which resulted in a sale even more quickly than I had anticipated.

It is my pleasure to recommend you to anyone searching for a qualified and motivated agent. Please accept my best wishes for your continued success.

Elisabeth A. Caswell

Thorough and complete with follow up and communication. Wendy treated this sale as though it was her only priority - Bravo from the Seller's perspective!

Pat Stark

To Whom It May Concern:

What can I say, except that if you are looking for a Realtor that understands what the real feelings and emotions are in selling your home, Wendy is the right person for you. I found her not only to be a very professional business person, but also a friend. She is very quick to respond to her client's needs and never relents in her effort to sell your home in a professional manner. Her enthusiasm and vigor are outstanding and very refreshing. We both thank Wendy for doing, truly, an excellent job and for just being herself. We both wish her the very best in the future.

Russ and Judy Robertson

We used to compare real estate people to used car salesmen... they'd get us to sign on the dotted line and then take our money and run. And then we met Wendy Rulnick. She worked hard for us and aggressively advertised our home. We had no idea how long it would take for our home to sell, our home being in the higher price range. In fact, we had heard horror stories about homes that had been on the market well over a year! Much to our surprise, a deposit was put on our home just a little over two months from the date we first put it on the market. We feel fortunate to have had the opportunity of working with Wendy Rulnick and would not hesitate to recommend her for any real estate dealings.

Dennis and Anne-Marie Carlson

To Whom It May Concern:

My husband and I were extremely happy with the services of our Realtor, Wendy Rulnick.

Compared to stories my husband and I have heard from friends about the "push tactics" of some Realtors, we consider ourselves fortunate to have worked with Wendy. Buying our house was perhaps the biggest investment we'll ever make. It really makes the important difference to have someone like Wendy, who we trust and truly like as a person, to be on our side.

Sincerely,

Dara B. Hall

Dear Wendy,

Clark and I appreciated the many hours you spent with us while we were deciding just how to accommodate my parents' needs. You were able to listen to our thoughts and provide and provide numerous places for us to see, without making us feel as if we were wasting your time. It's people like you who give the real estate business a good image.

Gail and Clark Jamison

"We really enjoyed working with Wendy. We found that she was very helpful and always willing to work around our schedule. Most importantly she was friendly, honest and provided very quick feedback. This was our first house- Wendy helped to make a nerve wracking experience very informational and a lot more enjoyable.- Keep up the good work!"

David Benton

Having had a number of bad experiences with Realtors, I unfairly approached Wendy with negative stereotype of a Realtor. However, Wendy was about to blow that Stereotype out of the water. What resulted was one of the most professional sales experiences I have ever encountered.

When I first met Wendy, I was adamant about doing things my way. Ever the professional, she listened to my needs and she delivered. While I took Wendy on a wild goose chase that entailed looking at over 30 houses I had found in the local "Find A Home" publication, she copiously made notes of everything that I liked and didn't like in a home. At the point where I had given up hope, I stubbornly gave control to Wendy. Within an hour of turning it over to Wendy, she faxed me nine MLS descriptions of homes. She told me to pay particular attention to the first three listings. As it turned out, the first listing she sent me was a house that met every single need that we had for a home. We put a contract on it the very next day. However, my experience with Wendy did not end there.

Wendy's professional follow-up sales skills are second to none. She called about a week after the closing to make sure we were getting settled in our new home. She sent us a beautiful plant the following week. It is this type of follow-up that demonstrates Wendy's sincere dedication to the satisfaction and happiness of her clients. I would have expected any other Realtor to be well on to their next sale without a concern about our transaction, but not Wendy. To this day, Wendy and I continue to stay in touch.

I wholeheartedly recognize Wendy as the best real estate professional that I have ever come across. As far as I am concerned, there are no other Realtors in our area. Wendy sets a precedence that no one else can match. I continue to recommend Wendy to all of my friends and business associates. My wife and I take pride in our experience with Wendy. Whenever we see a house with one of Wendy's signs, we look at each other and say, "It's Wendy"!

In closing, should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call me. I will be happy to sing Wendy's praises.

Sincerely,

Michael F. Eiser

It was recently my pleasure to engage Wendy Rulnick for the marketing and subsequent sale of my waterfront property in Mary Esther, Florida. Wendy proved to be dedicated and skillful in bringing to a close the sale of my lot.

The lot had been marketed several other times over the past eight years, but not until Wendy came on the scene did we get responses that finally brought about the sale. I had prior business with Realtors who either didn't know the market in this area or simply didn't get out there and advertise as was necessary. In addition, the sale was further complicated by the presence of wetlands. Wendy's expertise on this subject convinced the prospective buyers that the property in fact could be permitted and had adequate uplands for driveway and home site. When we had an offer on the table and two other more lucrative offers came in, Wendy handled the situation to my best advantage, while keeping peace among the other parties.

The overall experience left me with a sense of high professional admiration for the work Wendy does in her business. I recommend her without reservation to anyone who needs real estate services in the Destin/Ft. Walton Beach area.

Raymond Campbell

Dear Wendy:

Thank you for the great help you have given me with the sale of my house. From the first time we spoke you took the time to listen to what I wanted and helped me to realize those wishes. Although selling a house can be a traumatic venture you were able to help keep the process under control and also ease my mind. During this time you and your staff actually made the process enjoyable and extremely easy.

Although I have only bought and sold 3 homes, in that time I have had the chance to meet several realtors and it is truly amazing at the differences in capabilities and work styles that exist. From the number of realtors that I have dealt with, you are definitely at the top of the list and it was a pleasure meeting you and working with you.

Thank you for your help and guidance through the entire home selling process. It was truly a pleasure working with you.

Sincerely,

William Hopp
