About Loveda Markley

Knows everyone and has some of the best real estate stories!

We are convinced that his long standing relationships with many of the agents in the St Petersburg area, helped our offer “win” in a multiple offer situation.

As an agent, I have never worked with a more competent and responsive Broker. This deal could not have happened had it not been for your calm demeanor and innovative input. You should have been a diplomat! Thank you for your guidance!

You answer your calls and texts right away, do you really have a personal life? I love my new house, it is perfect!

I thank you every time we have a bad storm and you told us what neighborhoods to avoid. You kept us on track and helped guide us the make the right financial decision for our family.

Wow! What a ride! 22 houses, 3 counties, 5 offers and you never lost your focus and were always so patient with us. Thank you for sticking by us and helping us find our dream home!

Isi Caruso has represented me and my wife as both a selling and buying agent.She is remarkably patient and has a calming effect in what is a relatively stressful time. She is a pleasure to work with and really goes the extra mile. My wife and I now consider her to be a friend to both of us. I cannot recommend Isi more highly.

Isabel is thorough and responsive at all times. We have sold and bought a home with her previously and have 100% confidence in her knowledge, integrity and desire to get us the best deal possible.

Isi Caruso is absolutely amazing! My dad had to move out of state quickly. Isi coordinated the removal, donation, and disposal of furniture. She coordinated the shipping of family treasures. She procured a painter and other handyman services. She went above and beyond selling the house. I trust her guidance and advice implicitly! There is no better and honest real estate agent!

As a former realtor and mortgage broker who also holds an MBA, I know what makes a realtor a cut above. Isabel Caruso is just that type of special professional. Ms. Caruso is a tremendous resource for the community as well. Isabel handled it everything for our closing while we were stuck in quarantine in Prague. She is the best in every way. We have already recommended her to a friend.

Isabel was spectacular! From our first phone call, we could tell that she was the right fit for us. She listened and understood what we were looking for. She was patient with us, and she urged us to be patient in finding our perfect home and we did. Initially we were looking at properties from Pennsylvania, and she provided "face-time" showings for us. Upon our arrival in Florida, our house-hunting tour was streamlined and efficient, making it a pleasure. Upon making an offer on our condo, she assisted us with coordination of insurance, mortgage, and home inspections. Upon moving in, she helped us coordinate with contractors that we needed. In addit...

Isabel is an amazing realtor! She is kind, supportive, fun, knowledgeable, and ethical! She always has her client's best interest first and foremost in all of her actions! She has helped me buy homes and sell homes! I have referred friends and family to her! Her psychology background comes in handy. My friends and family also rave about her and her service to them in such a big investmentI

Isabel was a wonderful partner throughout the process, from identifying and discussing what needed to be repaired before going to market and where there might not be sufficient return on investment all the way through the close. She had three offers ready for us by the end of the first weekend and counseled us as we maximized the winning bid. We then moved and she handled every single detail of the inspections and close. The process could not have been easier or more reassuring, and we sold for significantly more than we anticipated. Perhaps what is most important is that was not a one-off experience. I sold my last house through her, in the midst o...

Isabel was extremely professional with a high sense of professionalism and urgency. I would highly recommend her to others and she did an excellent job selling our home. Terrific service!

Had a wonderful experience working with Isabel on the purchase of our condo. Everything was handled professionally and timely. We had no problems and she will be the Realtor we choose to work with in any future real estate transactions.

Isabel was absolutely amazing! She was on top of everything and helped me get my house ready to sell from the beginning. I took her advice and guidance and couldn't be happier with the results. There were a few hiccups on the part of the other party and Isable stayed on top of it, took away the stress, and got the deal done. I couldn't be more happier with the drive and professionalism I experienced working with her. I will definitely use her again and would recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy.

We had an amazing experience working with Christina to buy our dream home. From start to finish, she was responsive, professional, and genuinely invested in helping us find the perfect place within our budget. Her communication was excellent—every time we wanted to view a property, she made it happen the same day. Christina also guided us through choosing between several neighborhoods, offering honest insights that really helped us feel confident in our decision. We couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable real estate agent.

We worked with Christina at shore to bay , she was always available, showing us properties, mended to our needs Very reliable by being always in contact to update us on every single detail thru the process We are very pleased and recommend her and the shore to bay realty.

So incredibly thankful for Doug and his team at Shore2Bay Realty! Made the entire home buying process smooth and enjoyable (especially for a first time home buyer). Was always so quick to respond (especially when it came to offers/looking at homes), answered all my questions and made sure I was comfortable throughout all aspects of buying a home! Doug is also an incredible resource and truly is an expert in the field. Would highly recommend to anybody needing a realtor, and so thankful we found and got our dream home thanks to Shore2Bay Realty!

Always takes time to explain everything in complete detail and never rush you. Doug made sure I understood everything before we hung up. Will definitely use this Company and highly recommend them.

Linda Lee Gates has been our go-to professional when buying and selling our homes since 2015. We very much appreciate her honesty, experienced perspective and were always confident she would get us the best possible deals under any circumstances. She patiently navigated us through our first home buying experience, then selling and even went through a brand new build together! I highly recommend Linda if you are looking for a wealth of experience, honesty and a calm confidence without the hard sales attitude/ego that is prevalent in the real estate industry.

We couldn’t have asked for a better home buying experience working with Linda Lee. She was patient, kind, incredibly knowledgeable about the area, and was a confident leader in helping us find and close on our home. We weren’t always sure of the right questions to ask or things to consider having only rental experience, but she had us covered. I can’t recommend Linda Lee enough.

Linda Lee is very much on top of her game; comprehensive knowledge and always makes sure we fully understood every step/move that was being made. Even though we were from out of state, she made sure to know exactly what we were looking for and kept refining the search so there was no wasted time looking at properties outside our scope. I would use her again if the opportunity arises and we highly recommend her for your search.

We told Amber we needed a house fast and we were out touring homes within two days! She was always so responsive and sure to send us updates on the process.

When we were looking to purchase our first home, Linda Lee was our first call. Her knowledge and attention to detail are unmatched. She showed us many properties in several different neighborhoods, and it never appeared as a burden or a hassle, her patience knows no bounds. If you are interested in living in the real St. Pete, Linda Lee should be your first call, too.

Amber and Linda were fantastic! When we decided to list our home in St Petersburg, FL we were unsure how to manage the process given we were in the midst of moving out of state. Shore2Bay handled it all for us; including coordinating with a general contractor for repairs prior to sale. From the initial walk-thru it was evident that they both cared deeply about the details of our home to ensure we listed it properly. I would highly recommend working with Amber and Linda on any real estate purchase or sale!

We've worked with Linda Lee twice. Both times was a great experience. She helped us find our home in Old NE and then eight years later when we wanted to sell, she came through with two full price offers before we could blink our eyes. Linda Lee Gates knows the market and will always be able to find your perfect home. She is a true professional.

Ziba is one of the most professional and personable real estate agents in the business. She was very responsive and proactive in all aspects of the process. What impressed me most was that her highest priority was our relationship. She was open, honest, and trustworthy. It's rare in any business or walk of life to come across someone who is as genuine and authentic as Ziba. With so many real estate agents in the market, Ziba is truly a gem and one of a kind.

As a first-time homebuyer, I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. From start to finish, Ziba made the entire process incredibly smooth and stress-free. She was always kind, easy to work with, and consistently available to answer questions or talk through decisions. Her professionalism, patience, and genuine care made what could have been an overwhelming process feel manageable and even enjoyable. I’m so grateful for her guidance and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

Ziba's proactive approach and positive attitude made the experience smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend Ziba to anyone seeking a reliable and dedicated realtor. Thank you, Ziba, for your outstanding service and commitment to your clients' success!

Ziba is an amazing agent! She truly cares about her buyers and sellers and dots all the "i"s and crosses all the "t"s. She makes sure that everything goes smoothly!

Ziba was our buyers agent on a recent local purchase. She did a great job and very professional.

If you want to buy or sell a property contact Ziba to "make it happen". She truly makes it happen. She sold our condo within 3 weeks in a highly competitive sellers market and that's when we were across the country. No matter where you live, if you want a property in eastern Florida, contact Ziba. She is highly knowledgeable, professional, attentive, and a diligent agent who works tirelessly to make your dreams come true! We really appreciate her wonderful work and professionalism! If you want it done, go with Ziba!!! Thank you Ziba M.

I highly recommend ZIBA MOHAMMADI to anyone looking for an outstanding real estate agent! Ziba is knowledgeable, professional and takes a personalized approach in providing services for her clients. She listened to my wants and needs when searching for a new home. Due to her knowledge of the area and expertise, she was able to find the perfect new home for me!

Ziba is very persistent and hard-working person. she is a great listener to what her clients are looking for when it comes to looking for that great home. She is the best realtor I’ve ever had and also is a great friend. She never gives up always has a smile on her face and does whatever it is to please her clients. She puts her clients first before anything. Every issue that we’ve had, she took care of it, and made the closing smooth. I would recommend Ziba for all your real estate needs. Anyone who hires her will be very happy and satisfied with the results.

Working with Ziba was the BEST decision we made when buying our house. The depth of knowledge, professionalism, and dedication that Ziba has is unbeatable. Anytime we had a question, day or night, Ziba was there with the answer, and always with a calm and steady hand. Ziba's background means she is more than just a run-of-the-mill realtor; she knows an INCREDIBLE amount of things regarding what to look for, and how to make a sound decision. If it wasn't for her I am sure we would not be as happy as we are with our home. Ziba was able to process our ever growing list of requests and really help us find our dream home. And the best part? She was able ...

Ziba is the only real estate agent you will ever need. She sold 3 of my properties in the last 3 years and helped me purchase 6 new ones. True professional, great experience and knowledge of the market. Always a phone call away, any time, any day. Extremely easy to work with and always gets the job done! Highly recommend, look no further.

Even all the way in Canada, Ziba was able to work her connections and refer me to the best possible realtor. I would count on Ziba's references, connections, honesty and expertise if I was buying a house anywhere! She is an absolute professional, incredibly knowledgeable, very motivating, and an all around superstar. Thank you for all your help Ziba!

I just closed a deal with Ziba, and working with her and her team is very easy and smooth, very professional with a lot og guidance and information provided along every step of the way! Looking forward to working with her on future deals!

Ziba sold my home and I could not expect more from her. She is readily accessible and dogged in her approach. I recommend using her for any real estate transaction you have. She makes things happen.

Ziba is a fantastic realtor. I am very pleased with her work on the purchase of my new house.

Without Ziba, this closing would not have ever happened. She maintained grace, fairness, and professionalism through out some trying issues. I highly recommend her. Thank you Ziba.

Ziba sold our property in April in Crescent Heights. She is beyond ratings. Her tenaciousness is hard to match.

Loved working with Ziba, very professional but knows how to keep it personal. I would recommend her to anyone!!

Ziba worked very hard and was willing to go above and beyond to bring our deal to a successful conclusion.

Ziba was wonderful and very helpful we were discouraged till she helped us.

Great agent! Made process of selling my house easy.
