Testimonials About Us

Sergei was highly recommended by mutual friend and was a life-saver. I needed to quickly sell a property while I was living in Chicago. Sergei went the extra mile and we accomplished this complicated sale via long distance without a hitch. I highly recommend Sergei and his ability to deliver. Thanks Sergei.

Sergei and Belinda have been tremendous to work with during the sale of our condominium. It was a pleasure working with both individuals that are extremely knowledgeable and professional. In this slow market they were encouraging and sold the apartment to our satisfaction. During this process we have developed a professional relationship that we would recommend to anyone that require their services.

Words cannot adequately express our sincere appreciation for your
extraordinary efforts in selling our Bryn Mawr condominium in such a
difficult economic climate.  Your combination of ... knowledge, guidance,
hard word, tenacity, patience, understanding, execution and sweet, friendly
personality ... is what made the sale happen.  If any one of these traits
were missing, I wouldn't be surprised if we'd still be searching for a
buyer.  
If ever a potential client asks for a reference ... don't hesitate to
provide my name, number and/or email address.  It would be a pleasure to
express my high regard for you and your organization.
Belinda ........ THANK YOU AGAIN!!!

As a commercial Realtor in Ohio, and as an investor for fifty years, I believe that I am in a position to evaluate Realtor and investment performance.
Before I purchased my condo on North Hutchinson Island, I discussed the merits of a purchase, and visited many Realtors and condominium complexs in both North & South Hutchinson islands.
I can honestly say, and support Sergei Goukasov as the best realtor on North Hutchinson Island Condiminiums.
Quie frankly, there is no other person in the world that has a greater knowledge on the condominiums on North Hutchinson Island.
Wether on the buy side or sell side, Sergei can and will get you the best price available, at any given moment of time, in this difficult real estate crisus.

Sincerely,

My wife and I entered into a business relationship with Sergei in March of 2010 in search of a vacation/rental property on North Hutchinson Island. Past experiences with realtors in several different states were both good and bad, but this experience was exceptional. Sergei’s knowledge of the area and the market led us to contract in less than 1 month. Since the deal was a short sale, it took an additional 8 months to get bank approval and get to closing. It was Sergei’s patience and personality that guided us through the process that he has mastered over the years. In addition to finally purchasing the property we wanted all along, Sergei was instrumental in securing a 3 month rental agreement in less than 3 weeks time. Sergei’s attention to detail, professionalism, and market saavy convinced us early on he was the best realtor for the job. Today I’m proud to call him friend as well as business consultant.

Sergei and Belinda listen to what my family and I wanted from condo living. I can't say enough wonderful things about them. They found the perfect condo, needless to say I am very happy. They are a terrific team to work with. I would not hesitate to recommend them to friends and family.

After meeting Sergei and Belinda I knew they where the right realtors for me. I begin looking on the West Coast of Fla. and then a friend suggested I look on North Hutchinson Island and recommended Sergei. I explained to him what I was looking for in a second home and the price point I wanted to spend. Sergei and Belinda were right on target with not only price but with a beautiful corner, 11th floor, 10 ft. ceiling, 3 bedroom, laundry room and garage unit. We bought, and we have been so very happy to this day. They are exceptional realtors.

Please allow this to serve as my letter of recommendation for Belinda Boyd of Coldwell Banker, Vero Beach, FL.  I engaged Belinda to sell our family condo located in Atlantic View tower. In the most difficult of market conditions, Belinda successfully negotiated a purchase and sale agreement at a very good price and unfortunately, worked unsuccessfully toward a closing due to buyer cancellation. A very short time after, Belinda was able to procure another buyer at an acceptable price and good terms. She did an excellent job during the contract period resolving buyer and lender issues quickly and was extremely resilient and patient when those qualities were needed most. Notwithstanding the terribly difficult market, I couldn’t have been more pleased when the sale closed.
I continue to work with Belinda on the sale of a second condo located on the island. She has provided sound advice regarding pricing and keeps me informed as to market changes. I am confident that Belinda and her team will somehow find the right deal very soon.
I will continue to work with Belinda and give her the highest recommendation for her transaction skills, honesty and integrity she employs in each aspect of her work.  If you should have any questions or wish to verify further, please feel free to call me at 310.457.1628.

We had been coming to Florida for a number of years to vacation and during those years while looking for our dream vacation home met with a number of real estate agents, but we were never able to find one that was able to satisfy our needs.

Then we met Belinda Boyd. After our initial meeting with Belinda and viewing several properties with her while we were on vacation in 2004, Belinda was able to size up our wants and needs and desires. She listened and looked for what we wanted.

She actually called us on Memorial Day morning, apologizing for disturbing us on the holiday (while the she was working for us) and simply said “Diane, I think I might have something you will want to look at before you and Kevin return home".

Voila!!! We purchased our dream vacation home.

Service and dedication did not end after we bought. Her follow-up was exceptional, especially when we were away, closing shutters if a storm was approaching and making sure the condo was maintained and clean upon our return.

From start to finish she gave us personalized attention. We always felt she had our best interest at heart. She never failed to return a phone call personally and made our whole buying experience smooth and successful.

She and her team function as a well oiled machine and would be an asset to anyone buying or selling property in the North/South Hutchinson Island, Vero Beach, Fort Pierce area .We highly recommend her and her team.

Pam and I thoroughly enjoyed working with Belinda during the process of purchasing our condo and assisting in sale of the one we had been renting.  All aspects of the process were professional and friendly.  Responsiveness also played a big part in making the process easier to manage.  Would always go back to you any real estate matters.

In my stage of life (early 80s) I have bought and sold a number of houses but never have agents done a better job and few have done as well! The team of Belinda Boyd and Sergei Goukasov handled the purchase of my current home on N. Hutchinson Island about 4 years ago and very favorably impressed me and my wife with their dedication, meticulous attention to detail, energy, professionalism, diligence and perseverance. They are a well matched team, complementing one another extremely well to provide a balanced plus that would not likely be found in any one individual. I recommend them to both, buyer or seller, in any price bracket.

Over the years, we have had many realtors but none like Sergei and Belinda. They are not only our realtors, but have become true friends. The exceptional professionalism they have provided are almost secondary to the lifelong friendships we have made.

Thank you,

The Condo on North Hutchinson Island was our vacation home and one that my wife and I enjoyed over the years and a home that we made a sizable investment. So once we did decide to put it on the market, I did my homework and spent time researching Real Estate Agents. That lead me to Sergei Goukasov who was also highly recommended by a number of close friends.
At our first meeting he was very understanding and patient as we agreed on a selling price. No pressure, or aggressive sales talk. He knew the marketplace and showed his expertise listing the condo in such a manner that the very next week we had prospective buyers. I don't usually take the time out of my busy day to write a letter of recommendation. However, it is so rare to find someone who knows how to navigate this crazy marketplace that I felt it was the right thing to do. Its been almost a year since we sold our Condo and I'm still thanking Sergei for his great work.

Thanks again

I am writing this letter to let everyone know what a great experience I had working with Sergei Goukasov buying my condo in Florida.

My search was well over a year and unfortunately prior to meeting Sergei dealt with several area realtors that were disappointing at best. I actually came into contact with him while waiting for another realtor to follow-up. Sergei showed me the property and when I had questions he know the answers and never once said ”oh I have to check into that”, he was familiar with the properties the HOA’s and the area which was a great help when you are home shopping from Pennsylvania.

I worked with realtors from Hudson, FL to Naples, FL and from Cocoa Beach, FL to Palm Beach, FL and none as professional, knowledgeable and attentive as Sergei. Doesn’t he ever get tired?

Sergei went out of his way to present not just pictures in the listing but going out to the property to take more pictures and even point out what may or may not be a problem. When I decided on the property at Bryn Mawr Ocean Towers Sergei immediately put together all of the paperwork presented my offer and I closed in just a couple of weeks without one problem before or after closing. Sergei even took me around the community to introduce me to other owners and even the mail man.

Sergei made buying my new home what a home buying experience should be, a pleasant experience. I would not use another realtor if I should ever decide to buy or sell again. Sergei goes above and beyond even when I was being a real pain :-).

Thank you Sergei, I love my new home, there could not have been a better one out there for me, it is absolutely everything I wanted it to be and more, it would not have happened without you…

Sincerely,

Linda Terrell

I've sold and purchased real estate many times in my life, but by far my best experience was while working with Sergei. Sergei's team is professional, courteous, and above all, honest. From our very first meeting I felt that Sergei had my best interests in mind. He worked hard to quickly sell my unit for a price above what I initially thought to ask. This is quite a feat in this real estate market, which is why I'm beyond impressed with Sergei, his knowledge of the Hutchinson island market, and his dedication to his clients.

I would highly recommend Sergei Goukasov as your real estate agent for properties in the North Hutchinson Island area. Sergei is indeed a unique agent. He is trustworthy and honest. Those are attributes you don’t often associate with the real estate business. He is the only agent that I have known who actually gets to know you to help you decide what type of properties you should be viewing. This saves a great deal of time since you don’t see homes and condominiums you truly wouldn’t consider for purchase. Sergei goes above and beyond in customer service. After the sale, he has maintained contact and has been helpful in finding service and repair people for me in the area. One evening he even came to my condo and helped me put in a new faucet. I can’t imagine another agent ever doing that. He is, indeed, the only real estate agent that I know consider a friend. You will not make a mistake when you use Sergei as your agent!

Sergei and Belinda have become friends through business. Though it took some time due to the economy and home sales mess they were able to rent and then sold my Bryn Mawr condo. I had moved out of town and between the two they took care of the condo, seeing that it was kept clean and in repair as needed. They even took care of the closing so all I had to do was deposit the check.
I have complete confidence in both Sergei and Belinda and plan to keep in touch with them.

I came to Florida to find a suitable ocean-side condo for a great price. I went through several agents and almost gave up my search before I met Sergei. Sergei worked with me to determine my target location and suitable price to find me the perfect condo. He helped me make an offer and negotiate with the seller, and once the offer was accepted, helped me navigate the multitude of legal difficulties associated with purchasing real estate. I could not be happier with my purchase and have only the highest praise for Sergei and his team. I would definitely recommend Sergei to anyone seeking to buy property in the Fort Pierce area.

We came to Florida not knowing anything about the Fort Pierce real estate market.  Sergei took the time to listen to our preferences and then showed us a wide variety of properties.  We worked with him for almost a year to find the perfect seaside condominium. Sergei worked diligently to find something that to met our needs within our price range.  We didn't live in the area, so Sergei's attentiveness to details and knowledge of how to negotiate the contract and prepare for closing were extremely important.  He helped us find financing and a settlement company.  After we purchased our property, he gave us recommendations on how to complete the renovation of our new home. 
 
The result is we have a beautiful home -- exactly what we wanted at a price we could afford.  We could not have accomplished that goal without the help of Segei and Belinda's team.  They provided great service and made a complicated process seem so easy.  We highly recommend them and will definitely use their services again!

When I started looking for a condo, I had casual contact with a number of brokers in the Vero Beach area and a few on N. Hutchinson Island. I was then told by a friend that Sergei was the best, so I contacted him.  It immediately became apparent that Sergei knows the market well, gives honest evaluations of properties, and works hard for his client.  I eventually purchased a unit in Paragon.  After the sale, Sergei has also been helpful in making good suggestions on how to renovate the unit.  I highly recommend Sergei.

I  have known Sergei for many years, not only as a Real Estate Agent, but also a friend.  He is hard working, loyal and a great family man, who has a wonderful wife and twp great children, which he is extremely proud.  I am glad to call him my friend.

“I live in the Orlando area, so it was greatly appreciated that Belinda scheduled and maintained our appointment to view the properties the next weekend.  I arrived in town, met with Belinda, and she showed me the properties on Saturday.  She was extremely pleasant, informative, professional, and accommodating to my needs.  We discussed the area, the condo as a whole, and even discussed more personal information, because I felt totally comfortable with Belinda from our first meeting.
 
 Within less than 3 weeks from the time I saw the property, we were closing on the condo, and I was a new owner.
 
Needless to say, I appreciate Belinda’s professionalism and all she did for me to help make this a pleasant transaction, and a simple transition to being a beachfront condo owner.  I continue to contact Belinda about properties in the building where I own, and hope to bring her more business, as I have some friends that are also interested in beachfront property.  I feel that not only do I have a realtor that I can count on, but I also have a new friend in Belinda.”
 
You’re the best!  Thanks again!

The purpose for my letter is to acknowledge the truly outstanding professional service provided by one of your brokers, Mr. Sergei Goukasov in the sale of our condo located at Atlantic View Beach Club on North Hutchinson Island, Florida. Sergei is that rare realtor who knows how to listen to his clients in efforts to ascertain their needs and wishes, then offer superb and realistic advice as to formulating a strategy for success. Despite the depressed housing market in Florida, our desire to sell our property at fair market value (not give it away), he worked with us to develop a pathway to action that resulted in finding a buyer within three weeks of listing the property!!

Furthermore, Sergei continuously demonstrated going the extra mile to meet our personal needs. For example, as we were not in the local area, he ensured the property was kept in pristine condition, shut the storm shutters when needed, segregated our personal property from that we were selling to the buyers, and facilitated our efforts to move our personal items from the property.

Mr. Sergei Goukasov is an ethical, extremely knowledgeable professional. As a professor at the prestigious National Defense University and my wife’s previous work at the White House, we often receive and have become accustomed to excellent professional expertise and service. Mr. Goukasov exemplifies what professional service should be in all organizations. It was such a pleasurable experience to work with such a superb realtor as Mr. Sergei Goukasov! I couldn’t recommend anyone more strongly than Mr. Goukasov to anyone requiring real estate advice, sales, or service!!

Sincerely,

For me to sit down and find the time to write a letter of recommendation I find it amazing. I own several companies and I’m used to giving superior customer service to my customers… Most times I am quite disappointed when I am the customer trying to purchase a car, furniture and especially real estate. When I purchased my Condo in Florida I was also disappointed in my real estate agent but I’m not here to speak about my real estate agent but rather the seller’s agent.

Sergei Goukasov / Belinda Boyd Broker Associates at Coldwell Banker. This team of professional real estate agents worked quickly and accurately to answer the millions of questions I had buying real estate out of my home state. The laws are different and the procedures are different but they were able to answer all my questions. I ended up speaking directly to them… My agent would tell me “let me check with Sergei” so my decision to speak directly with these professionals was the correct one.

After the closing, which my agent couldn’t attend, I realized how disappointed I was with the choice I made in the selection of a real estate agent. I am still very friendly and in contact with Sergei and Belinda because questions don’t end after the closing they continue…. They were true to their promises and I think that says a lot for their characters. If and when it’s time for me to resell and upgrade my home I will make sure to use these two brokers.

Sincerely,

We have dreamed for years of having our own beach getaway, and never thought it would be possible.  Sergei and Belinda helped to make our dream a reality. Sergei patiently showed us numerous condos, helping us understand the pros and cons of each, given his familiarity with the area and condos in general, until we found the one that fit us perfectly.  Belinda was persistent in following up on our contract execution and getting us through the many steps that followed until we ultimately closed on our new home.  Both Sergei and Belinda were patient and helpful throughout the process.  We found them both to be professional and extremely knowledgeable about the Hutchinson Island area and the local real estate market.  They complement each other nicely and are a great team.  We would certainly use them again, when we achieve our next dream of living on the beach full time!

"I cannot recommend Sergei Goukasov more highly.  Sergei carried out the listing and sale of our condo exactly as he promised he would...quickly and professionally. Sergei is extremely knowledgable; and he managed, even in this market, to maximize our return and minimize all the difficulties associated with selling property.  We could not have been more pleased."
