KELLER WILLIAMS
ADVANTAGE 2 REALTY
Monica believes that it is
essential for REALTORS® to be
fully involved in all components
of the transaction, and
that it is crucial for all sides to
be engaged, communicative,
and committed to a completed
closing. She attributes success
to having a team that is made
up of members who both buy
into her philosophies and
are collectively capable of
addressing any client need.

DANIEL GOODMAN
KELLER WILLIAMS HERITAGE
REALTY
Amber holds bachelor’s
degrees in finance and real
estate and started her career
with an REO broker. She
maintains an open-door policy
with her clients and welcomes
all questions; through her
experience in the construction
industry Amber is even able
to assist them with structural
inquiries. She utilizes paperless
transactions and reveals that
most clients find this modern
process to be a relief.
As the broker of her own
business, Hollie insists that
integrity is the top priority and
values are not compromised.
In addition, Hollie takes the
approach that being selective
and saying “no” to doing business
in certain circumstances
benefits her brokerage in the
long run. Her service initiative,
The HAUS Project, is deeply
involved in local community
efforts.
Daniel has been in real estate
for more than five years, and
was attracted to the unlimited
potential that it offers. He has
a background in mortgage
lending and credits his passion
and work ethic to his success
in real estate (including a $1.7
million transaction that holds
a special place in his personal
history).

KELLER WILLIAMS
HERITAGE REALTY
Iordanka believes her creativity
and artistic ability is what
sets her apart. She applies
creativity to everything she
does, whether it is developing
new-media marketing
strategies, coming up with
ways to save a deal, providing
tips on home décor, or offering
suggestions for making a room
look bigger and brighter. She
also embraces technology as
a mechanism for making her
business more efficient.

ABBY NELSON
RE/MAX 200 REALTY
For Justin, honesty is the best
policy – particularly when it’s
difficult to tell people what
they don’t necessarily want
to hear. He believes that his
success in real estate has come
from being hardworking, aggressive
yet-polite, tenacious,
and organized, plus paying
attention to detail! Justin
specializes in property management
and serves as 2017
chairman of the ORRA Property
Management Council.
After working as an urban
planner for 12 years, Matthew
decided that he wanted a career
that offered more control
over his schedule and provided
direct contact with customers.
He now loves the freedom and
flexibility of real estate, the
pressure, and of course sharing
with a client the joy that comes
with a successful transaction.
Matthew serves on the City of
Winter Garden Planning and
Zoning Board.
Abby landed on a career in
real estate as the best of both
worlds: an office job that did
not require her to always be
in the office! She credits early
mentoring by exceptional
REALTORS® as the key to her
current success, along with
consistent attention to detail
and establishing her own specialized
and innovative tracking
systems for data capture
and marketing purposes.
