Testimonials
Thank you so much for all your, and your team’s, help in selling our unit at Aqua. As I’ve told you many times, you guys did a great job of marketing the unit in every regard. The photographer took shots that really showed the unit beautifully and the fliers and print advertisements were very well done. I also appreciate you taking the time to sit down with various parties to explain what were appropriate comparable sales versus ones that were not.
In summary, you guys did a great job of moving my unit in what is a very difficult market. Thanks again and we’ll be in touch when we’re ready to move on a house.
Sincerely,

Dear Nancy:
I am writing again to tell you how happy I am with the pictures that were taken of my house.

I can see Nancy that you really know who to choose to work with…….
Again, Thank you very very much,

Re your services, don’t know how they could have been better. Realistic pricing, good advice when negotiating, and interest and quality service until the end. The critical variable is trust. You gave us every reason to trust you.

It is with great pleasure that we recommend Juan Salas, G. R. I. of the Nancy Batchelor Team as a real estate agent. During one of the most difficult real estate markets, Mr. Salas aggressively managed the advertising, open houses, and showings of our home on Normandy Isle. We were just past the third month of listing, when he sold our home. My husband and I were very pleased with his professionalism, attentiveness, and skill. We were also pleased to jointly meet with Juan and Ms. Batchelor from the onset to outline our needs. Thank you, Juan, for getting us through those challenging times and finding us the right buyer within such a short time frame, and during such a difficult market. Your hard work is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Marilyn Jorge Martinez & David Martinez
If you want to work with the best real estate team in South Florida, all you need to do is contact Nancy Batchelor or her assistant Juan Salas. Armed with intelligence such as comps & number of sales in surrounding neighborhoods coupled with strong advertising/marketing plans, Nancy knows how to move property in the current economic environment. I know – she did it for me!
Nancy’s group has many years of experience and are backed by EWM’s strong presence in the South Florida Real Estate Marketplace. In my opinion, there is no better Real Estate marketing choice!

We had heard of Nancy Batchelor´s fantastic reputation and we wanted to sell our Miami Beach apartment, so I gave her a call. She called me back almost immediately and we arranged to meet at the apartment later that week. Nancy recommended staging the empty apartment and was able to take care of all the details for us.
After it was staged, she had the apartment beautifully photographed by her professional photographer. I saw our apartment featured weekly in the Miami Herald (with photo) and we had numerous showings. Ultimately, with the tough real estate market, we decided to rent for the time being and Nancy found us a great tenant. When the market recovers, we will definitely come back to Nancy to help us sell! If you want to talk to a true hard-working real estate professional about your property, Nancy is the obvious call to make!

Hi Nancy,
Thank you for the lovely Tiffany goodies. That was so nice of you. Thank you also for all the hard work you put into 1200 Bay Drive and all the aggravation you endured from the tenant. So glad that is behind us.
We won’t be back to Miami til next season. Let us know if you are up north visiting your sister. We are very often in that neck of the woods. In fact we’ll be in St Michaels on our boat next weekend. Hope all is well.
Love,
Starr Ezra
Hi Nancy,
I’m still in Miami for a few more weeks, before moving to NY. It was a pleasure dealing with you. I appreciate all the help you have given me. I will always recommend people to use you and when I decide to get back into real estate in Miami, you will be the first one to hear.
Keep in touch!
I will send you my temporary address.
Best Regards,

This is not a very personal way to write a thank you, but since I only have your email address right now, I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate
your generosity in so many ways. First of all, the gifts you gave me at lunch the day we signed to buy the condo were so thoughtful and useful.
Then when I was in Florida this last week and saw the beautiful silk orchid arrangement you sent, I couldn’t believe another gift. It looks so great!
Then Nolan gave me the box you wanted me to have and I couldn’t believe my eyes when I opened and saw such gorgeous jewelry!! You are so
sweet and so kind. I really don’t know how to thank you properly. I am overwhelmed.
We appreciate all you have done to make this acquisition go smoothly. We are so glad we had you as our realtor. You did such a great job. So thank
you for everything. I am very grateful for your generosity and thoughtfulness. I hope we see you again.
Sincerely,
Margaret
Dear Ms. Pavan,

“Ms. Nancy Batchelor is the most honest, caring and compassionate professional that we have dealt with in all our real estate transactions. We’ve moved 19 times in our adult lives, so that should mean something. Taking it one step further, she could be placed into any executive situation and be perfectly at home at any task. Her social, managerial and professional skills are apparent within minutes of dealing with her. When she enters a room, people notice.” |
I felt it absolutely necessary to take the time to inform you of the exceptional performance of one of your realtors. Since March of 2007, Ms. Nancy Batchelor has provided nothing less than exceptional service in her marketing and sales efforts for our residence at 730 Buttonwood Lane, Miami, FL.
I know that you and much of your staff are aware of the other offer and ultimate contract that was submitted in October of 2007. As the market had quickly and dramatically changed, a very lucrative “short sale contract” was submitted to the lender, American Home Mortgage Services, that returned all of their loan and most of their interest. After the contract submission and despite literally dozens of telephone calls and faxes from Nancy with their loss mitigation section, legal section and any other telephone number she or I could locate, other than the initial acknowledgement of receipt of the contract and loss mitigation documents, not one other correspondence was received from AHMS. Nancy was able to finesse the purchasers to extend the contract, but ultimately they had to look elsewhere. AHMS never responded to any of the hundreds of pages of contract, plus hundreds of pages of supporting documents until a phone call in mid-February of 2008.
Due to the lenders failure to respond and based on advice from Counsel, Mr. Christal and I Quick Claim Deeded the property to the lender which also went unanswered. Jess and I had moved out of our home in June of 2007 and we maintained the property meticulously since then so she worked her magic and expertly convinced the two of us to continue some upkeep. That paid off with three more offers in April 2008. All three offers plus were presented to the lender for a short sale approval. The best offer, at Nancy’s suggestion, actually had the buyers fly from Florida to Texas to personally meet with the lender AHMS, with Nancy’s full conference call participation. The Short Sale Contract was ultimately approved, but not before one of the other purchase offers with the least desirable contract filed a Lis Pendens on the property because sellers and lender had not fully complied with his contract. Those approved buyers then walked away from the contract as they wanted no delays in moving in. Again, here comes Nancy. In coordination with her, we retained Counsel to get the Lis Pendens removed. Nancy worked her magic and got another contract resubmitted. Lender indicated they would approve. Hearing is set for Lis Pendens 6 days prior to closing on the property. Nancy expertly prepares with us and our Counsel with EWM’s Counsel for trial the next morning. Plaintiff, a real estate attorney, drops the suit and removes the Lis Pendens.
Over the next 6 days prior to closing, Nancy continued to professionally work her magic. Virtually unseen, but accomplishing what needed to be done. The property successfully closed on December 18th, 2008, exactly one year later than the first one should have.
All the proceeding could have been summarized to the following, but then you wouldn’t quite appreciate the heartfelt emotion and sincerity that we both wanted to express to you.
Ms. Nancy Batchelor is the most honest, caring and compassionate professional that we have dealt with in all our real estate transactions. We’ve moved 19 times in our adult lives, so that should mean something. Taking it one step further, she could be placed into any executive situation and be perfectly at home at any task. Her social, managerial and professional skills are apparent within minutes of dealing with her. When she enters a room, people notice.
We have come to respect, admire and genuinely like Nancy for simply thousands of reasons, all of which could not be included here.
We fully expect to have a close relationship with Nancy for many, many years to come.
EWM has an exceptional asset in Nancy Batchelor. One you should never consider losing.
Most Sincerely,

By the way…. thanks again for the Aqua book. Don and I were looking at it again last night. It’s a great gift!
And for the record, “I LOVE WORKING WITH YOU NANCY!” You are such a joy and delight to be with. I hope your family time is going great!!
Michael Mertens
Thanks for everything, Nancy. You did a great job in a tough market. As I hear of Miami friends that are looking to buy or sell, I will definitely recommend you. We really appreciate all your hard work and I also really admire how aggressively you have marketed our house. We are relieved given what the market has done and glad that it finally sold.

Nancy,
I got in the mail today Fairchild Gardens monthly publication and came across the ad for our house in it. I think it is brilliant! Kenny and I were talking the other day about how much we appreciate all that you have done for us. You attention to details and your warm and thoughtful presence is always so pleasant to be with. Thank you again and again and again for all of your hard work. We will be doubly happy when our house sells – first for us and second for you to be able to get your financial reward that you so deserve.
Sincerely,
Michael
Hey Marlene
I have a great realtor that I highly recommend for folks buying and selling in Miami. I know we typically recommend Javier but I also know that some folks have had some “not so great” experiences with him. My recommendation is with EWM and her name is Nancy Batchelor. Rob and I have bought and sold two homes with her and you know how particular we are. She’s great. She works really hard and unlike many realtors I’ve come across, is just a good person who you can trust. She worked with us on the beach but also does a lot of business in the Grove and Gables as well. Her info’s below. I think she sent a package to someone at the agency but I’m not sure who she sent it to. Should it be you? Courtney? Some other random person on your team that I don’t know? Thanks, Marlene. Let me know if you have any questions about her.

Dear Sir/Madam,
If you are searching for a Realtor then you need look no further than Nancy Batchelor. I highly recommend her services if you are either buying or selling a home. Not only is she decided and passionate, but her advertising strategies and networking skills are exceptional. Selling in todays marketplace is not an easy task and she succeeded in finding a buyer for my home within 60 days of listing it with EWM. Nancy went above and beyond the call of duty. She was always available to discuss my concerns and she aggressively followed up to get contract issues resolved in a timely manner. I would not hesitate to use Nancys services again in the future. She is a top-notch realtor!

Dear Nancy: A card came to Easter Seals indicating that you were honored by Esslinger-Wooten-Maxwell for your sales achievement and you were welcomed into their 2004 Chairman’s Club at the Sapphire Level. No one has to tell me what a winner you are. You have impressed me as such a very fine, caring, intelligent woman. I am proud of your relationship with Easter Seals and I value our friendship.

Bob and I would like to take a moment to express our gratitude to you for the recent sale of our Miami Beach waterfront home.
We felt you handled our real estate needs with the utmost professionalism and knowledge. We felt that your demeanor with prospective clients always maintained a cohesiveness with all concerned parties. Your determination played a very significant role throughout the real estate process.
Again, we feel very fortunate to have had you as our agent and have many fond memories.
Sincerely,
Dr. & Mrs. Robert Cushing
Dear Nancy & David: After having lived on Miami Beach for over half a century and in the same neighborhood for almost all of that time, selling and buying a home was quite a traumatic experience. As you know I thought I would try selling it myself but that soon became more of a hassle to add to the trauma.
When we met the two of you in response to a listing in which we were interested, that became one of the luckiest days for June and me. We found you to be most professional and above all, most empathetic to what you were hearing as we went through these emotional ups and downs. You gave us considerable time and effort and the proof is we are happy with both the sale of our home and the purchase of this new house. You made us feel that you were always looking out for our best interest.
This note is just another opportunity to say “thanks”. If the opportunity arises in which we can recommend your services or be a reference, we will be most happy to do so.
Most Cordially,
Stuart & June Jacobs
I would strongly recommend Nancy Batchelor. She is well known in the community and would do an excellent job for you. She has the listing on my home presently.
