" Seemless Experience from Start to Finish! Shawna and her team were very knowledgeable and easy to work with starting before we ever considered listing our house through the final walk through. She assisted with providing a realistic valuation of the house based on the current market, prepping the house for sale by handling cleaning and staging, assisting with repairs leading up to closing and being an expert resource throughout the appraisal process. The transaction closed over a week earlier than planned because the entire process was smooth and well orchestrated. Thank you to the entire team for their assistance with this transaction! "

" Dona was an absolute pleasure to work with. She showed up many homes and she never made us feel bad for taking a while to decide on the right home for us. She took all of our wants into consideration when helping us search for the right home. She was patient, understanding, and extremely knowledgeable. When we finally made a choice, she was our champion for ensuring all the numbers were correct before our closing. She is amazing and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home. "

" OK… We’re biased OK… We’re biased because “we like her”, not just because she’s good at real estate but because she’s a good person. Our story is a bit trite but we met Shawna by luck via the internet and called her from the car and asked “could we meet up with her later that day”. We’re from Boston and were shopping for a place and looking for advice on neighborhoods. It turned out that Mirabay was a good fit, and we bid on a house but it didn’t consummate. As plan B, she suggested a Villa which we bought it “sight unseen”. It turned out great because she shepherded us through the sale and the move, which went beyond just the sale. This is our fifth year and we still consider her a trusted friend and ally. If we had to summarize, Shawna is knowledgeable, a go-get-er, savvy and above all caring and trustworthy.

" The Whole Packsge My wife and I interviewed several Realtor agents before we met with Shawna We immediately knew that she and 27 North were different. She didn’t jump in immediately with this is how much we can sale your house for speech. Instead she discussed marketing, advertising, and the current state of the real estate market specifically in our community. She was positive, uplifting and super knowledgeable. Still before we signed with her she took her time with her team to evaluate our property room by room. She had a plan that included marketing through many outlets like social media like FB and Zilllow and her own clients. Well it wasn’t long before she identified the perfect buyer. The process was simple, the communication was excellent and the care she demonstrated was perfect. We highly recommend Shawan and 27-North. Simply the best Realtor Agency there is period!!! "

" I can’t say enough good things about working with Roxanne. She helped me sell my parents’ home after they passed, which was one of the most emotionally difficult times of my life. From the very beginning, Roxanne was not only incredibly professional and knowledgeable, but also kind, patient, and deeply compassionate. She handled every detail with care and kept me informed every step of the way. Her ability to navigate the market and present the home in the best possible light made a huge difference—and her support made the process feel far less overwhelming. I’m so grateful for Roxanne’s expertise and her heart. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares and knows how to get the job done, I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you, Roxanne, for everything. "

" Effective and efficient As a buyer in this market, you need more than just a tour guide; you need a strategist. Shawna was exactly that. They were incredibly effective at positioning our offer to stand out without us overpaying. Their negotiation skills are top-tier—they managed to get our terms accepted over other interested parties. From the moment our offer was signed to the day we got our keys, Shawna was efficient, proactive, and stayed three steps ahead of the process. We are now in our dream home because we had the right person in our corner "

" Shawna and Team Made a Complex Sale and Purchase Go Smoothly Shawna and her team were excellent in helping get my property sold. She and her team are very experienced in the Apollo Beach area, and because they are so active locally, she has a great understanding of what homes are selling and can spot market trends early. This allowed us to quickly identify adjustments that could be made to the property and listing to maximize exposure and attract buyers. Dori, Shawna’s staging expert, was also fantastic. She was knowledgeable and had a great eye for design, helping stage the home in a way that really showcased the space and made it more appealing to buyers. Once we accepted an offer, Shawna’s team did a great job communicating every step of the process and clearly explaining what was needed from me. They made the inspection, walkthrough, and all the title and closing paperwork feel very straightforward and manageable. On top of that, I was coordinating the sale of this home while also making an offer on another property for a back-to-back closing, which added another layer of complexity. With a quick closing scheduled and multiple time changes along the way, Karen, the closing agent, was absolutely appreciated. She did a great job keeping everything organized and moving forward to make sure the closing stayed on track despite the shifting timeline. Overall, I really appreciated the professionalism, communication, and teamwork from everyone involved. It made what could have been a stressful process go much more smoothly. "

" Dona helped us find the right home for our family. She was key in us avoiding a mistake of picking the first house we thought was correct, but had multiple red flags. She took the time to help us find the correct house over a quick sale. She was responsive to emails, calls and texts often responding in under an hour. Dona was key at bringing the deal over the finish line by working multiple issues with the seller agent to find reasonable solutions. For my future needs in Tampa I will work with Dona again. "

" Linda did an absolutely amazing job for us from start to finish. When we met to discuss staging the house she provided excellent advice and used a top notch photographer. Her attention to detail in this beginning phase was critical. She then networked with local agents to get our house “out there.” The result? We had an Open House on a Saturday and accepted an offer (1 of 2 offers) on Tuesday! Linda then negotiated the purchase of our new house and got us very favorable terms. In the next month as we prepared for closing Linda continued to stay on top of every detail with both title companies and during walkthroughs of our new home. I could not have hoped for better representation throughout the entire process. "

" Dona was very knowledgeable, patient, kind through everything. Especially when I had issues with my phone do to internet problems which made it difficult to check my emails. She communicated with me through out the whole process of even finding a place. Dona let us go at our own pace never felt pressured or rushed into anything. I'm very happy with our house, she was knowledgeable about the neighborhood, what it had to offer for the whole family. She was very professional, and negotiated well on a few things. When I contacted her she'd get back with me right away most of the time or the very next day. "

" Exceptional Agent – Sold Our Home Fast and Stress-Free! Shawna Calvert was outstanding from start to finish when we sold our home at 208 Oceania Ct in MiraBay. Her deep market knowledge of the Apollo Beach waterfront and canal properties really shone through—she priced our home competitively based on current trends, and we received strong interest right away, leading to a smooth and quick sale. Communication was top-notch; she kept us updated every step of the way with prompt responses, clear explanations of offers and paperwork, and proactive advice on staging and minor updates that made a big difference. Shawna's professionalism is unmatched—she handled negotiations confidently, coordinated showings efficiently, and made what can be a stressful process feel manageable and even enjoyable. We couldn't be happier with the outcome and would highly recommend Shawna to anyone selling (or buying) in this area. She's truly the best in the business! Thank you, Shawna, for guiding us through this chapter with expertise. "
