Hi. I’m Raquel. I am a rarity in this area: a real-life native Floridian. I was born and raised in Miami, Florida. I am a proud University of Miami alumni and fan. Go Canes! As an educator for more than 30 years, I helped thousands of students meet their academic and personal goals, and supported teachers in meeting their professional and instructional goals. I also have over 20 years of experience buying and selling investment properties in South Florida.
I can help you find the home that is just right for you! Growing up, my family vacationed in Naples, Sanibel, and Marco Island. I fell in love with the area and continued the tradition of vacationing in Southwest Florida with my husband and three children. Our oldest daughter attended Florida Gulf Coast University and we spent a lot of time in Fort Myers and Estero during her college years.
Eventually, we chose Bonita Springs as our retirement home. I love to read, run, hike, bike, swim, and paddle, so the parks, trails, and waters of SWFL are the perfect place for all my pursuits.
I will utilize my knowledge of the area’s communities, shopping, dining, entertainment, and recreation to guide you on your real estate journey.
