Monica was a pleasure to have as our Realtor. Monica never left any questions unanswered and always responded promptly as this was a big move for us. We were selling our house in New York and moving to the Aiken, South Carolina area. Monica was very flexible with our schedule and had showed us approximately 15 homes in 3 days. Monica kept us updated and on schedule for all things needed to buy our dream home. In spending so much time with Monica, we have developed a friendship with her as well. I would highly recommend Monica as she is very pleasant to work with and very knowledgeable as a realtor.

In early 2019, I made the decision to retire from my career in health administration and move to Aiken. Admittedly, I thought I had a pretty good idea of the type of house and neighborhood I wanted, but I also wanted to keep all aspects open. I was living out of state and still working full time, so the house finding process would have to take place via phone and computer with hopefully 1 or 2 trips. It also required a type of time balance, because I did not want to purchase a house until I was ready to move, which was several months away. Yes, I had no idea how fast the real estate market was in Aiken! However, Monica did know. Monica was the perfect agent for me. She understood that even though I was focusing on Woodside, I really did want to learn about the different neighborhoods. She also knew that finding a house is a process, the original description likely changing as the investigation becomes more focused. During the six-month process, Monica sent me pictures and videos of houses. The trips were time efficient and effective. She remained calm as offers were made and lost. When we found the perfect house, we both ‘just knew it’ as soon as we entered the front door! The purchase and closing process was communicated and executed well. As the real estate agent, Monica was knowledgeable, organized and communicated well. As important, she has kept in touch since the house purchase, introducing me to several new residents!

Working with Monica Maldonado was a real pleasure. Moving from out of town she made the whole process of buying a house enjoyable. She was not the first real estate agent we worked with in the area but she was by far the best. Monica is informative and has her client’s best interest at heart. She really listened and didn’t waste our time showing us things that did not meet our needs and wants. She responded very quickly to every email, text and phone call. Monica is very professional, knowledgeable, organized and is pleasant to be around. She is truly an expert in her field. And, her support does not stop after your closing. She continues to get us acquainted with the area and its events. It is without hesitation that we recommend Monica. You truly cannot go wrong.

Monica is not a high-pressure person. She listens to what you want and then matches you to what you described. Along with showing us houses she took us on a tour of Aiken to show us where we would be living. Since we're not from this area we thought that was very helpful. So yes, if you have Monica as your Realtor you are good!

Nora & Michael Doane

My husband, Michael and I have moved several times due to job requirements. We both agree that Monica Maldonado was the best Realtor we have worked with over the years. Monica has an outgoing personality and she was a joy to work with. She was tenacious in finding us a house. She spent the entire day with us a year before we could even make the move. She gave us a wonderful overview of Aiken that clinched our decision to call this charming little city our new home. When the time came to buy, we only had a couple of days to find a suitable house. Monica took us around to places we had looked at online plus others that she thought would make us happy. We were thrilled when we found the house in the Houndslake development. She contacted the owners and helped us negotiate a contract and a suitable timeline for selling our current home. Monica stayed in constant communication with us throughout the move and closing. We are now living in a wonderful home overlooking the golf course and are very happy with our quiet neighborhood and delightful neighbors. We highly recommend Monica Maldonado as your agent of choice in choosing a new home.

We purchased a home from out-of-state, and Monica helped us by video chatting each and every potential home. We couldn't have found our dream home without you Monica. From the bottom of our hearts, Thank You!

Monica Maldonado is a power house of information and energy. She listened to what I wanted in a home and community and went out and found exactly what I was looking for. Monica is an excellent listener. She is very knowledgeable in her field and familiar with the community and the surrounding areas. She is easy to work with and responds to texts, calls, and emails in a timely professional manner. I have complete confidence in Monica Maldonado accomplishing your real estate dream purchase exactly as she did with mine.

Monica was a joy to work with as our realtor. She was very knowledgeable, helpful & honest through the entire process and helped us find the perfect first home for our family.

Melissa, Michael, Echo & Foxtrot

We feel so fortunate to have met Monica during our home search! She is truly the best!!! She was there for us every step of the way, and we really appreciate all the help she has given us. She really exceeded all our expectations of an agent, and we always felt so comfortable and well taken care of. We thank her for helping us make our dream of becoming homeowners a reality. We really can’t thank her enough for everything she has done for our family.

Kathy & Greg Reese

When we first started working with Monica we didn’t know much about Aiken or Woodside Plantation. Kathy would go online, scout out properties to view, send them to Monica with the dates we’d be there, and Monica would set up appointments and add a few more that fit our criteria. Kathy knew what she was looking for, but it turned out that she didn’t know exactly what Greg really wanted in a property. Three trips and probably 30 properties later, we found a home we love. We tell our friends that the warmth and charm of Aiken makes us feel like we’ve been dropped into a Hallmark movie. Monica was great to work with and a great resource for restaurants and services we would need. We will always feel like she was the first friend we made in Aiken.

My husband and I just moved to Aiken from out of state. We found a house of interest on an internet real estate site in Aiken. My daughter who already lives in Aiken referred us to Monica Maldonado. We would not have successfully made this move if not for all the excellent, diligent efforts made by Monica. She answered all our questions promptly. She was a great go between the seller’s agent and us. We were very grateful for all her efforts in helping us is buy our new home.

Buying my first home had me slightly nervous at first, especially being such a young person, but Monica helped me navigate the house buying process and helped make the process smooth and low-stress. Monica really did care about making sure I got the house that I wanted as easy as possible. It was such a great experience we still catch up regularly!
