Xena was knowledgeable and realistic about the market, organized, and professional. As out-of-state sellers, Xena graciously assisted us with various house prep issues, which we greatly appreciated. We would definitely recommend Xena to others.

Dear Xena,
Thank you so much for helping me find my new home! I could not have done this without you, and I am endlessly grateful for your hard work and expertise. If any of my friends or family are ever in need of an agent/broker, I will be sure to send them your way.
If you ever need a review or testimonial, don’t hesitate to let me know! It’s the least I could do as thanks for your excellent service.
Thank you again for everything!
Sincerely,
Susan

How many characters are allowed in this field? What can you say about a realtor who meets up with you on a moment’s notice an hour away from her office every Friday afternoon at 4pm for a month, not to mention the numerous other showings during the week? And, she was always pleasant and upbeat no matter how crazy the mobs were at the showings. When we lost out on several houses, she felt as badly as we did. When our offer was accepted, she was excited as we were.
Her communications with us were always up to the minute. She was always well prepared and thorough.
After all her hard work fighting for us, we’re finally home! Thank you,
Jim, Lyn, and of course Libbie (pictured with her special gift from Xena). We’ll miss you!!!

Xena did an excellent job with the sale of my condo. She explained everything thoroughly and stayed with me and my family through the whole process. Wouldn’t have been able to handle this on my own. Thanks for all of your help with this sale!!

Xena helped us purchase our Florida getaway home. We went through the purchasing process remotely from Minnesota and Xena was fantastic. She was open and honest with her feedback on different properties we toured via facetime. We relied heavily on her expertise and recommendations. The end result was finding the perfect fit for what we were looking for. We did fly down for a live look during our inspection but everything else was virtual. The whole experience was smooth and professional right up to the virtual closing.

Great job. Publishing our home for sale with Next Home was a very rewarding experience. Xena was on top of every aspect of the sale. Publishing with pictures was a great selling point. It showed the community in a great overhead.
Xena was on top of everything from the very beginning. When problems arose, she handled it with respect and intelligence
I would recommend Xena and Next Home to friends and anyone looking for their Next Home

We highly recommend Xena for your realty needs. She assisted us in the past more than once. Xena is very knowledgeable with reading contacts, inspecting homes and speaking up for her clients. We were blessed to have her by our side.

Xena was wonderful to work with. She cares very much for her clients and treats them with respect. She worked her ass off to get things done and I really appreciated that. She walked me through the house buying process and made it very easy and simple. She is simply AWESOME!

Xena Vallone is outstanding! As out of state buyers, we needed someone local who could provide us with additional support through the buying process. Xena delivered on all we asked. From recommending local vendors for inspections, who we could use for legal work and insurance, help us get our utilities organized, and even completed our pre-close inspection on our behalf. Our transaction was super easy and went flawlessly. We would definitely recommend Xena to everyone!

Working with Xena and her team was a pleasant experience, despite living over 1700 miles away. Xena kept me updated through the buying process and helped me meet my closing date. Xena and her team are very knowledgeable and knows the Bradenton/Sarasota area. I highly recommend Xena!

My family worked with Xena Vallone since 2007. We bought, rented out and sold 4 different type of residential properties in Bradenton, Sarasota and Venice (Florida). All these years Xena was a bright example of exceptional professionalism in real estate market. She demonstrated not only deep knowledge in RE market trends, but outstanding skills in negotiations and communications with other agents and tenants. During so long time we encountered with so called "difficult" tenants too, but thanks to Xena everything was o'kay without any losses for us. All elements of RE and RE management service from Xena Vlalone were very good or perfect. Especially for us as not English native speaking.
We highly recommend Xena Vallone to everybody, who needs quality service in real estate market.

We met Xena back in 2008, she was our realitor. she work very hard to guide us through the process. When we were ready to sell that home, there was no question who we would call. Xena is very professional and works just as hard whether we were buying or selling. I highly recommend her.

We hired Xena to sell our home in Florida (we live in NY). Xena did an excellent job all around. She was always professional and knowledgable and went the extra mile to help us with things we could not do since we were not there. Xena's legal background was also an advantage. Xena was a pleasure to work with.

Xena is a consummate professional who goes above and beyond for her clients in all aspects of the real estate purchase process beginning to end as well as post sale. She, as well as several highly qualified referrals, remains an integral part of the team with which we are working in Florida after we closed a week ago, and she will be a great asset and a true find moving forward as well. Thanks, Xena!

I am so pleased to share about the wonderfully supportive style with which Ms. Xena Valone represents her clients as an outstanding realtor in the field of real estate sales!
I purchased a home in Florida during the pandemic closures across the country. Ms. Vallone could not have been more supportive from start to finish of the entire process.
I was able to do virtual tours of prospective homes/properties given her adept use of a video device allowing me to literally see every part of a tour from my home in Maryland.
She kept me informed via email at every turn up through the entire settlement process as well.
She was also a most professional and pleasant person who kept me up to date and at ease at all times. At settlement, I was overwhelmed by her generosity of spirit when she presented me with a basket (creatively in the form of a laundry basket) full of moving supplies including paper towels, scissors, toilet tissue and the like!! I also enjoyed my first dinner at a local restaurant from her congratulatory gift card!!
When she shared that she is my realtor for life, she did not exaggerate as she was so helpful to provide access to contractors working in the Florida vacation home.
Finally, a full year later while at my tax preparer's office, Ms. Vallone aptly retrieved my data upon my call that was not planned. In a split second, I had all of the information needed to be eligible for the tax code benefit.
I enthusiastically recommend Ms. Xena Vallone for things in the real estate world!
Sincerely,
David A. Patterson

We started working with Xena in January of 2023, when we began a serious search for our new home. Xena has been responsive to our needs as we refined our search, which had some very specific needs, especially for future multi-generational use. She was always very helpful and professional when dealing with us, other realtors, and homeowners. When we found our home at the end of May, Xena was prepared and ready, as she had already been communicating with us and our mortgage broker on pre-qualification. Within twenty minutes of deciding to make an offer, our offer was in the hands of the seller's realtor for review and presentation. It was accepted the next day. I attribute this quick resolution to Xena's preparedness and professionalism. As we went through the inspection process and inevitable closing negotiations, Xena kept us informed daily of progress, the usual 'snags' and their prompt resolution. We were able to move-in to our beautiful new home in under three weeks -- the transition from renter to homeowner was smooth, and hassle-free thanks largely to Xena's exceptional professionalism and the value her knowledge of the market brings to any real estate transaction. I strongly recommend Xena for your next home search and purchase. She and her team are well worth it!

For the past 7 years Xena managed several of my Florida rental properties with highest professionalism anyone could ask for. Xena also handled the sale of our last Florida home not only in record time but also once again at the highest level of professionalism that anyone could ever ask for.

Xena found our house in 2008 so when we were ready to sell in 2022 we easily decided on Xena again. She has made the whole process seamless and painless. I would definitely recommend her for either buying or selling

From the outset of our house hunt in Bradenton, Xena has been a very client focused and had our interests at heart. We lived in Wisconsin and were not going to be able to see our next home in person before putting in an offer, so trusting an agent wasn't going to be easy for me. Xena looked for all the things we would look at for ourselves on our virtual tours of homes, and I forget just how many homes we had her show us. She made it easy to trust her and in the end she helped us find a great condo in a crazy market.
Now when we came down to move in Hurricane Ian was bearing down on us and being from WI have had no experience with such weather. Xena offered up her office for us to stay in at a higher ground than our condo, if her home had room she would have had us stay there. I don't think you can describe "above and beyond" better than that.
I plan on recommending Xena & NextHome in the Sun to anyone who asks. If you're reading this and need a real estate pro, you don't need to look any further.
