Why Do Tampa Bay Homeowners Trust Team Virgadamo?
Over 550 five-star reviews from real clients across Tampa Bay. Our reputation is built on real results and real relationships.
“Didn't Sell the First Time?”
“After a dreadful experience with an inexperienced realtor who was very unresponsive and wasted six months of my life, I terminated that contract. I then interviewed four other realtors and thought I knew who I was going to hire. A representative contacted me and I had a good conversation with a very nice lady. She inquired about having me sit down and conducting an interview with Paul, to which I agreed. To my pleasant surprise, he surpassed all the other realtors with his knowledge and experience in the industry. I felt very comfortable with Paul and his team. The house sold in 8 days from the time it went on the market with a cash buyer followed by a quick closing. I was frankly blown away by the video, plus every aspect of dealing with them was both professional and caring. I would highly recommend Paul to anyone looking to buy or sell a house.”
John Knudson
“White Glove Service from the Crème de la Crème”
“I've known Paul Virgadamo since I was a youth and his student. I know this man's integrity, character and excellence. He and wife Denise are outstanding real estate brokers who provide superlative service in the purchase or selling of a home. I completely trust them and their talented team for all our needs related to my buying and selling of properties. Paul and Denise sold both the waterfront homes of both my 103 year old aunt and parents when my brother and I transitioned them into assisted living. They connected me with reputable tradesmen to prepare the properties and fiercely advocated for our fiduciary interest. These sales were intensely emotional for our family, and the Virgadamos helped us negotiate every twist and turn to achieve a maximum financial outcome. It was like having our own family members representing us. White glove service from the crème de la crème.”
Gary Vitacco-Robles
“Results That Speak for Themselves”
“Top notch from beginning to the end. Living out of state I relied on Paul for a lot of help in getting our house ready for sale. Vendor referrals were also tops. End result was 31 showings in 2 days, and 18 offers. Property sold for 13% over list price with a cash offer.”
