As a first time homebuyer and also using the VA Loan, I was deep in uncharted waters, had a million questions, and wasnt familiar with key aspects of buying a house. Judy provided a service more than just a realtor. Her knowledge about real estate is impeccable because shes been doing this over 11 years, and she has the experience and truly has your best interest at heart. She wears her heart on her sleeve and doesnt play with money which I loved! Shes consistently keeping up with the market, knows exactly how to negotiate price points, and has a whole team of connections if you need anything in your closing process. Whether youre selling or buying, she has a licensed guy for any repairs, improvements to your home to increase value, home inspectors, cheap home insurance companies, a variety of loan lenders, literally anything you need, she knows someone that can get you an amazing deal. You dont only get her partnership through the buying/selling process, her motto is to keep connections, stay in touch, and reach out for anything you need afterwards as well. In my closing process, I went through not one, but TWO hurricanes. Judy and her family were affected through these storms, but she took it as light-work still helping answer questions, get paperwork done for VA Loan standards and close on time. She really did dominate this whole process and I'm just truly amazed how great she is at her job. Judy is a supporter of our Military, and contributed donations to my unit after months of owning my home. I recommend her to literally anyone interested in buying or selling a home I work with, my friends, and family. I brag about her all the time. If youre military, take advantage of your VA Loan and reach out to her. She made this process so easy, wont regret it.

My experience working with Judy was extremely positive. She went out of her way to help whenever possible during my buying journey. I found her to be smart, trustworthy, and knowledgeable personally and regarding all things real estate.

Words cannot begin to describe how wonderful of an experience I had working with Judy Horvath and the Horvath Group. My decision to buy a home had been one I thought of for a while, but moved forward with quite suddenly. I looked up realtors in my area, and within 10 minutes found myself calling Judy first out of all other contenders. I'm so happy I did, as that first realtor call was my last. She just had that great of an impact the first time I spoke with her. For starters, she was very attentive and took time to ensure she had an understanding of exactly what I was looking for. Being a family-oriented individual herself, she was able to relate to my wants and needs when it came to taking my kids' well-being and livelihoods into consideration. Even with a family to tend to, Judy had no issue incorporating balance between work and home life, and I never found myself frustrated or waiting long periods of time for call backs or responses. Within 24 hours I was viewing homes and within the week I was under contract for the home I'm currently sitting in! From the moment we started viewing homes, Judy made sure my questions were answered, my concerns were addressed, and she was able to bring knowledge and experience to the table. When I entered contract, she took the extra time to show me things we would want to look out for on the inspection and really started to help me put the vision of MY home together inside the house. In terms of inspections, lenders, etc. she has a wonderful network of vendors she works with and not a single one of them have let me down, even after closing! I could probably go on all day about the experience I had, because it really was as amazing as I describe it. Judy just has a wonderful and patient demeanor about her, but certainly knows how to advocate for her clients, negotiate with sellers, and network with the right people to make the purchase process as seamless as possible. I'm happy to say I'm in the home I'll be in for the remainder of my life. My kids are happy, my dog loves the backyard, and through means of listening, understanding, and having knowledge of our beautiful city, Judy, her colleague, Jessica McKiverkin, and the Horvath Group have helped me find a home with solid bones, beautiful updates, and potential for growth as my family grows. I'd recommend Judy to anyone who wants a realtor they can depend on who will work hard for them as if she's working for her own family.

Judy is the best realtor I have met so far. Simply perfect. From the begininng to the end of the process. Purchased a wonderful apartment in Clearwater in less than a two weeks. I strongly suggest Judy if you need the best realtor in Florida.

Judy was AMAZING and very easy to work with. Before she was even officially my agent, Judy provided instrumental advice on what I should consider to get my house sold. Not only was she ALWAYS available, she staged my house perfectly, knew the best photographer, helped me hire people to make my house perfect and (most importantly) strategized how to sell my house after increasing interest rates were giving buyers pause. I got feedback the open houses Judy hosted made potential buyers feel at home with her welcoming demeanor. Buyers from the area AND from out of town also commented about Judy's extensive knowledge about the area on their feedback forms which I'm sure is attributed to Judy's many years of experience living and working in st Pete! I've bought and sold houses in the past with terrible experiences which is why I am so grateful for choosing the RIGHT person to guide me through this process! THANK YOU Judy for all that you do!!!!!! Highly recommend!!!

Judy came highly recommended and we could see why right off the bat. We're so grateful we were able to work with her to buy our first home! Judy's expertise and knowledge were so beneficial to us during what can be a stressful and intimidating experience for first-time home buyers. I loved that we could trust her to negotiate on our behalf- she truly wanted the best for us and to see us with all that we needed in our first home. Our questions were always welcome and her instructive feedback was crucial to us during this process. She helped us from start to finish and we look back on what can be a headache to so many and laugh because it was a joyful experience! We are so happy with our home and feel confident to move forward into our future.

Judy did an outstanding job assisting us through the buying process. Her knowledge of the St. Petersburg area was evident in the guidance and direction that she provided to us on the various communities. While I was out of town throughout the entire process and Judy was working directly with my son on viewing properties in the area, Judy ensured that I was kept informed and was always available to answer any questions that I had. My son was also new to the Real Estate Buying Process and as such, Judy took the time to share knowledge with him which was greatly appreciated. Her negotiation skills were also greatly appreciated as when the Seller began regressing on items noted in the Listing, Judy indicated that we should continue to negotiate and hold the Seller accountable which ended up being favorable to us. I would certainly recommend Judy as her diligence, work ethic and knowledge is commendable coupled with the trust that she exhibits throughout the Process that resulted in us feeling very comfortable in working with her and that our interest and success in purchasing a property that would meet our needs was her utmost priority.

It was a pleasure working with Judy! With the rapidly growing profession, we wanted to make sure we found someone who has many years of experience who is very familiar with the Tampa/ St Pete area. Judy was easy to communicate with, helped us negotiate appropriately for our house, and made the process very easy over all! She is very nice, professional, passionate, and reliable!
