My husband and I wholeheartedly recommend Kim Bregman as an exceptional Realtor and Buyer’s Agent. As a native Floridian, Kim possesses an in-depth knowledge of the local market, particularly in communities from Palm Beach Gardens to Boca Raton. Kim’s exceptional listening skills and understanding of client needs truly set her apart. She not only highlights various communities, including new developments, but also ensures that clients are aware of important building codes and potential concerns, especially for those new to Florida.

Anna Choo’s Testimonial 

“It was my first purchase of property in Florida. I found Kim to be super knowledgeable about local market. She was professional and had the contacts I needed. She kept things moving along to a smooth closing. Our loan with Chase went south at the last minute and Kim was able to find a lender that could close on time. Saved me from having to go chase a short term hard money loan. ”

Robert D. Wirtz’s Testimonial 
I cannot overstate how impressed I have been with the service Kim provided for my family and her dedication to her profession.  In every aspect in searching for our home, she always offered safe advice garnered from her years of experience.  Once the sale was closed, she continued her support be reviewing the closing documents and doing a remarkable job inspecting the new house.  Her expertise has save me both money and time which is even more valuable.
I will seek out her opinion on many diverse subjects in the future and listen carefully to her suggestions.  Her voice deserves respect and consideration not just on real estate but innumerable subjects and situations.
I recommend her highly and is an invaluable asset to any institution or individual.
Paul Choo’s Testimonial 
“Hi Kim.
I want to thank you for quarterbacking the successful purchase of 3010 Equestrian.
While this wasn’t my first real estate purchase, it was my first real estate purchase in Florida.
Some things were the same and some things were different.
Chase and Citibank wasting my time only to tell us no was the same.
Getting insurance in Florida was different although I understand that California is now having the same problems with insurers pulling out of the state.
You were exactly the person needed to keep the purchase process moving forward.
I believe that the saying “it’s like herding cats” was applicable to our situation.
I am grateful to you for connecting me with Choice.
Had it not been for Bruce and his team I would have ended up in a very difficult situation most likely with a hard money lender.
This has been a nearly six month process for me start to finish from selling my property in Berkeley to the successful closing last week.
You were a big part of the happy ending.
Warm regards.
Paul.”

Fran and Steve Pruce’s Testimonial 

“Kim Bregman is THE premier Buyers Agent and we are so fortunate to have discovered her. She “interviewed” us to thoroughly understand our needs/priorities in both a home and a community. She really “got us.” Her knowledge of the South Florida real estate market is incomparable. She knows the builders, the properties, the neighborhoods, and more. She really became our trusted “one-stop shop”. We had been out of the housing market for 40 years and she guided us impeccably step-by-step through the entire process. As we were coming from Maryland, Kim enabled us to navigate the intricacies of Florida real estate, taxes, inspections, contractors, residence requirements plus many details that weren’t even on our list! Her knowledge of the properties was extraordinary and helpful in making our decision easy. Her keen eye during inspections and walk-throughs caught items that we missed and minimized surprises for us as buyers. Contract negotiation was also an invaluable part of her service. Above all, Kim operates with the highest level of professionalism and integrity, and she continues to help us even after the purchase. She is simply the quintessential Buyers Agent and now our friend as well.”

Karen Melton’s Testimonial

Kim Bregman represented my husband and I on the purchase of our new property in Boca Raton. I had no idea before meeting her how MUCH an agent can and will do to help your process of buying a new home. Since the first contact with her we felt like she wakes up taking care of you thinking of everything to make the entire process as smooth, easy, effortless when buying your biggest purchase could and would not be without Kim. She goes over the top addressing things we would not have thought of. I believe her knowledge and experience 38 plus years with her incredible work ethic make her the top agent you could have. Kim even after the close is as helpful as before. I think of Kim as “Wonder Woman”….and now we are able to live in our dream home enjoying it and I know one thing for sure….my loved ones needing to purchase a home I will gladly insist the very BEST person to represent them..KIM BREGMAN!

Corey Gottlieb’s Testimonial

Kim is Amazing! After spending time talking to Kim and seeing only 2 apartments, she had a really good understanding of the type of neighborhood and property we were most interested in. She then started to do her magic and got us into all the neighborhoods that fit our criteria. The discovery process was made easier because Kim has extensive knowledge of all the property options, current assessments, previous unit modifications and so on. Once we decided to go into contract, she handled everything efficiently. professionally and most importantly,..with a great attitude. I would recommend Kim’s services as a buyer broker to any of my friends and family. In fact…I already did!

Bassanio Wong’s Testimonial

I recently had the pleasure of working with Kim Bregman at Optima Properties, and I can confidently say that she is a fantastic excellent real estate agent/broker. I just closed on my house at Heron Bay in February. She is very professional, knowledgeable, and responsive to my needs all the way through whole transaction. What stood out to me most is her in-depth knowledge of the Boca Raton, Coral Springs, and Parkland areas. Kim took the time to get to know me and my needs. She provided valuable insights and right advice leading me to make informed decisions. She was patient and helped me in the decision-making process. Kim always available to answer my questions and provide guidance and made the entire home-buying experience a positive one. By the way, Kim helped my sister and brother-in-law bought their house in 2021. I would highly recommend Kim Bregman to anyone in need of a professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated real estate agent. Thank you, Kim, for your hard work and dedication!

Scott Berger’s Testimonial

“I was so fortunate to have had Kim as my realtor! I have purchased and or built about a dozen multi-million dollar properties in South Florida, and Kim was without a doubt the most knowledgeable, hands-on realtor, I have ever been fortunate enough to work with. She was not only professional, but Kim’s background and MBA degree, along with her phenomenal ethics and integrity, she quickly became my go-to person, who helped me from the minute we met. Kim actually was able to get two contracts accepted for me, which I ended up only taking one, due to her keen contacts with inspectors, mortgage brokers, etc we were able to close this deal in one week – a record! Her approach to the inspections, and their order is yet another example of how she saved me money, and yet accomplished my goals. Thank you Kim. You are my only call when I buy the next property. ”

Elliott Laws’ Testimonial

Kim helped me find our new townhome in Oakland Park. She was phenomenal in all aspects, but particularly in pre-screening homes and neighborhoods before we went to view. Knowing what I wanted in both of those respects, she was able to cut through a lot of the marketing clutter and point me homes and areas that fit my requirements. She knows the Ft. Lauderdale area very well and that was extremely helpful to me being from outside of Florida. Great realtor!

Sharon Wollman’s Testimonial

I really can’t say enough about Kim! She goes above and beyond the scope of her job and really made this one fabulous process. Kim makes you feel as if you are the only client and stays with you during the entire process. When it gets overwhelming Kim is there. When you forget things that might need to be done, Kim is again right there. We searched for years (even during Covid) for our forever home. She was more than patient and guiding without ever losing a step in what our needs and wants were. Kim is an exclusive buyers agent only and really only has your best interests not the sellers. When the process gets overwhelming (and purchasing a new build tends to be stressful) Kim is there to see things you might not and you know she really cares. I can’t say enough about Kim except we were very lucky to have her with us and whatever our future brings us we know Kim will still be there!

Rick Wollman’s Testimonial

“Kim was AWESOME in every way. First she’s a buyer’s realtor, so that is her expertise. Her patience and willingness to ascertain our needs were exemplary. Not only does she respond to emails, texts and calls but she does so right away! Her knowledge in the market is A+. But whats even more amazing about Kim is when we ran into challenges with our builder (who is nationally well known) she actually reached out to a senior executive executive. From then on we got red carpet service from our builder. There’s more… She was present at all of our walkthrough’s and pointed out things we never would have found. Without any doubt I would recommend Kim to ANY buyer. She will be your biggest advocate.”

Robert Little’s Testimonial

“We were first introduced to Kim three years ago where she helped us with our relocation from California to Florida. Kim is an exclusive buyer’s agent; she is there to help you find what you want and what to potentially avoid. We have learned so much from Kim in the questions she asks the sellers about their home. She gets right to the point with sellers and we appreciate having someone fighting on our behalf. Kim is responsive through texts and email and provides you with expert guidance throughout the home buying process. During our time with Kim, we have learned to think about north/south or east/west facing homes, getting details on how old the AC, water heater, and roof are so you can factor in the costs coming to you a few years down the road, to standing in the backyard to see how loud it is outside, and many other questions we would have never thought to ask. Kim gets to know her clients and what they are looking for. She always has your interests front and center and we found that to be refreshing. How often can you find someone who is so badass at their job and offers incredible client care. It is rare. We can’t wait to work with Kim again when we are ready for our second home.”

Chris and Elizabeth Schoenbeck’s Testimonial

100% Dedicated We selected Kim to be our buyer’s agent for our Florida dream home and were impressed from day one. Our home was new construction so there were lots of decisions to be made. Kim was able to guide us as what is worthwhile doing with the builder versus waiting on and doing on our own after closing. Before we even started, Kim was able to provide us with a loan officer to check to see what we could even afford. Once underway, whenever there was a question or a decision to be made, Kim was quick to respond with her advice. We were living outside of Florida during the whole process, so Kim was willing to meet with the builder and pool company for various meeting in order to help us make decisions on our options virtually. We had some issues with the builder toward the end where they were passing on loan extension costs to us as the buyers when they as the builder, with their building delays, were the cause of the extended building period to begin with. Kim was able to fight for us and get a significant portion of the loan extension costs reduced. In closing, Kim is a very hard working, well connected, experienced real estate agent who is very passionate about her job. Anyone looking for an agent who will go above and beyond should look no further.

Charles Rosenberg’s Testimonial

I’ve used Kim on two transactions in the past two years. We started working together about three years ago when I began my relocation process from the West Coast. She showed me numerous properties from Fort Lauderdale to Jupiter. I felt confident in purchasing a house in an overheated market because I saw many listings thus allowing me to learn about this area. We had informative discussions on market conditions and valuations. Throughout the entire purchasing process she worked closely with the other agents, lawyers and escrow agencies. This allowed my to concentrate on my moves without having to worry that things were tracking correctly. Most importantly she listened to what I wanted and what my budget was. She showed me only relevant properties. I was able to find the right fit. I’m very happy with my new home.

Carol and Ray Cornell’s Testimonial

“We highly recommend Kim to any prospective buyer. She is professional, organized, experienced, and knowledgeable. This was our first time with an exclusive buyer’s agent and Kim really worked with us to ensure we explored all our options to find our dream home. I am not sure when she slept, as she worked tirelessly to make our experience from portal to settlement, a positive one.”

Danielle and Matt Genova’s Testimonial

“What a true blessing it was to meet Kim Bregman (totally randomly) when we inquired about a property online. She certainly did not respond to us like we were strangers – right from Day 1 she made us feel like we had known her for ages! In this current insane real estate market, Kim provided us with incredible guidance and the most accurate up-to-date information on every property that became available. Being new to Florida this was so helpful for us. She even prevented us from entering into a potentially detrimental sale by uncovering some unfavorable “fine print” buried in the disclosure document. Ultimately she helped us find and buy our perfect place – which occurred under extremely competitive and time-sensitive circumstances! Without her expert advice and extensive experience in the real estate industry I am not sure we would have pulled it off! We can’t speak more highly of Kim and are thrilled to refer her to anyone at any stage of their real estate search!”

Sarah Savage’s Testimonial

She has deep market knowledge, superior negotiation skills. Shes very busy and a hard worker. You dont see realtor her quality now a day. Im very happy with my experience and would work with kim again in the future!”

Scott and Susan Meuser’s Testimonial

“Kim represented my wife and I in recent purchase of a Singer Island 4-bedroom condo and she did a truly outstanding job. In every step of the process, Kim gave us clear guidance and worked diligently to keep things on track. She helped with the price negotiations, oversaw the inspections, helped work out the numerous loose ends to closing that the seller needed to address. Kim also helped us make sure the seller left the place the way we wanted it. If you are looking to pursue a real estate transaction where all aspects go well, Kim is the right person to have as your team!”

Craig Folsom’s Testimonial

‘Kim is one of a kind. As an exclusive buyer’s agent, she had my interests at the forefront during the entire home purchase process. She is the hardest worker you will come across; up before the sun and working into the evenings to make sure your purchase goes smooth. She answers all calls and text messages rapidly and provides you expert guidance with her experience and breadth of knowledge. She has extensive vetted connections in all facets of the industry which can help a buyer save time searching for contacts. Kim keeps the stress of homebuying to a minimum! If you’re in the market for a home purchase, choose a buyer’s agent like Kim! She has my highest recommendation”

Rosina and Bryan Yeo’s Testimonial

“Kim is phenomenal! She literally never takes a day off. The current market makes the home buying process even more stressful than usual, but Kim made it a breeze. She searched exhaustively for properties to meet our needs. In the end, we found a home that was on the lower end of our budget and met all of our needs. Kim’s focus is solely on the buyer’s interests, which gives a peace of mind that is normally missing in real estate transactions. Her amazing follow up and persistence are unmatched. We give her our highest recommendation.”

Javier Mignosi’s  Testimonial

“Kim Bregman made buying a house such a breeze! Kim is the best! She was thorough and professional and great to work with. She kept us informed about available appointments and always let us know as soon as a new house came on the market. She was honest and forthright, no games. She was extremely communicative and easy to reach to answer any of our questions at all times. Buying and finding a house at the top of the market was not an easy task. She is not only a fantastic realtor, she is an excellent support system. Every time there was a house we wanted to see Kim moved fast as houses were flying off the market. She negotiated and helped us to obtain the house we wanted; working hard to make sure things like closing date were to our favor. Kim is amazing and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home, you won’t regret it. If the time ever comes when we will be looking for a new home, there isn’t any question on who my realtor will be!”

She brought her team of experienced professionals who took care of the inspection and legal, and led us to closing.

Sue Kaufman’s Testimonial

“Was looking for a buyers agent to represent me in the buying process of a home in Boca Raton. I needed a buyers agent who would be receptive to my specific real estate needs and who would guide me in the proper direction , one who was looking out for my best interest. I chose Kim Bregman and I am glad that I did. Kim is knowledgeable in the real estate field and demonstrates her loyalty and expertise to her client throughout the buying process from the beginning (in my case choosing the community, lot and floor plan) to the closing and she addresses all of ones concerns whether they be small or large in a prompt manner and is there for her buyer! Even after moving into my new home she is still there for me and I am fortunate to have had Kim Bregman as my buyers agent.”

Kim Case & Karyn Weiss’ Testimonial

Kim Bregman is a gift! Not only did she find us our Florida home during a pandemic, she facilitated virtual showings, advised us about offers, held our hands while waiting for acceptances, and jumped for joy when we were successful! She facilitated a long distance closing and introduced us to others of equal quality who helped with the transition. Kim never missed a beat, was readily available, highly professional and a terrific person who really knows her business. We were indeed fortunate to have her in our court and hope to continue a relationship long after the move-in dust has settled. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Kim was the Best Thing that Could have Happened to Us! “Kim was hired for us when we thought we could handle the buying process on our own. Besides buying an apartment of our dreams, Kim was the best thing that could happen to us. She managed everything with great knowledge, expertise, patients, and integrity. We had to work with lenders, seller’s agents, lawyers, title company at the same time, which was not an easy process. Lenders were moving very slowly, therefore extra negotiations and extensions were required. Kim was on top of the situation and expertfully guided us through the process. She is also very reliable and responsive.We strongly recommend Kim Bregman to anyone who is buying property in the area and looking for a buyer’s agent.”

Deidre Kolarick’s Testimonial

“Kim was a close partner and ally in helping my husband and I buy our home in Florida from New York. It was a long distance purchase during Covid, and Kim did an outstanding job of helping us see properties and narrow down our search via FaceTime without putting ourselves at risk by traveling. It was clear Kim valued both our time and hers, and she was extremely efficient. She would quickly zero in on the things she knew we would like and dislike, and help us understand the pros and cons of properties and neighborhoods. Once we found the home we wanted, she was indispensable in helping us navigate everything from the home and pool inspection through to finding help for home issues after closing. She is exclusively a buyer’s agent, which is rare and a true asset. She asks the tough questions of sellers and effectively advocates on the buyer’s behalf. Throughout our process, I found Kim to be thorough, conscientious, and very direct, which I appreciated. She’s also extremely responsive and I knew she valued our business. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again or recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home in this area.”

Jay Feudo’s Testimonial

Kim is absolutely the best, hands down. If you’re looking to purchase property and you’re not working with an exclusive buyer’s agent, the agent(s) you are working with are not working for you – even if they tell you they work for both sellers and buyers. They are working for the seller, period, which is critically important to understand. Kim is a true, exclusive buyer’s agent which means that every step of the way, she is focused in on your best interest, not the best interest of the seller. After working with Kim for the past several months on an incredibly complex and challenging real estate transaction, I can’t imagine that anyone could be better than or work harder than Kim. I’m absolutely positive that if it wasn’t for Kim, we would not have been able to purchase our dream home on the water – the transaction clearly would have fallen through. Kim also knows homes, condos, and townhouses inside and out and very quickly and easily can point out everything that is a potential issue with a property. That’s what a great buyer’s agent does as opposed to a seller’s agent who would focus only on the positives of a property in order to make a sale. She knows what replacement costs are for roofing, flooring, air conditioning components, water heaters, electrical panel upgrades, plumbing issues, impact windows and doors, sea walls, pools, etc., etc.. Kim ensures that you are going into a property with eyes wide open and assists with and advises on negotiations as well. Kim was there for us 110% and she very artfully and skillfully managed everything and everyone involved including the sellers, the seller’s agent, the seller’s attorney, the HOA board of directors, the property management company, the title company, the lender, the inspectors, us, and even our attorney! She knows exactly what she is doing and she is more responsive and communicative than even my own family; not kidding. In fact, even after the closing Kim is continuing to work with us and be there for us as we make the transition from our current home to our new home as well which is very helpful given our complex situation. I can’t recommend Kim enough. If you’re looking to purchase a property, working with Kim is absolutely the best thing you can do to ensure the best outcome possible. She’s truly that good!

Angela Moore’s Testimonial

“From the moment I virtually met Kim, she impressed me with her professionalism, knowledge, and can-do attitude. Due to COVID and the fact that we were buying our home from Hawaii, my family and I relied very heavily on Kim’s assessments. She took the time to give thorough reviews on each house we sent her and provided insight that only a real estate veteran can provide. She was very responsive to our questions, feedback on what’s going on, leaned forward to get things moving in the right direction and negotiated over $20,000 in savings on our purchase. I absolutely recommend her. True professional!!”

Toma  Moore’s Testimonial

From my first interaction with Kim, she impressed me with her professionalism, knowledge and can-do attitude. My family and I were relocating from Hawaii and she earned our trust with thorough and honest reviews of each property we pressed. She gave us peace of mind and eased the stress of buying a home from another state. Her keen business acumen and attention to detail, saved us over $20,000 on the final price. My wife and I highly recommend Kim and appreciate her candid, honest and efficient manner. If you want the best, look no further.

Joseph Family Testimonial

Your home purchase can be the single most important investment decision you make in your lifetime. It’s critical that you choose an agent with the highest ethical standards who is experienced, effective and can protect your interests as the buyer. I work exclusively with buyers’ agents and my first choice for this transaction did not meet my standards for customer service and attention to detail so I moved on to Kim Bregman based on her online recommendations. Kim met my requirements and far exceeded my expectations. Kim leverages technology well and her database and portal were instrumental in matching me with daily recommendations based on the search criteria. She is very flexible, easy to work with and definitely dedicated to the clients she represents. There is no dual agency with Kim, she represents the buyer exclusively. She spent many extra hours to ensure the integrity of the transaction. She is an experienced professional with specific skills and a level of expertise which made the entire home buying process successful in the end. I strongly endorse Kim Bregman and Optima Properties for your next Florida or Carolina real estate purchase. She is the very best exclusive buyer’s agent I have worked with.

Laura Jove’s Testimonial

Kim was excellent! She is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. Though I have purchased other properties, this was the first time that I purchased property in Florida and having Kim as my buyer’s agent made me feel like I had someone in my corner. She is organized, extremely familiar with the purchasing process in Florida, and really understands Florida’s real estate laws. She stays up to date and can help you navigate current conditions in the real estate market. She not only worked hard and did a great job helping me buy my first Florida house, but she did it all during a pandemic! I will recommend her to my friends and family, and, if I buy another house, I will definitely use her again!

Andrew, Brett and Eva’s Testimonial

Kim was a fantastic asset in helping us find and purchase our first home! She was very responsive, organized, patient, knowledgeable of neighborhoods, and informative of the process and of the homes we looked at. She often pointed out things that did not look right and steered us away from potential problems or bad fits. She also was very helpful even after closing on the home and connected us with service providers that were needed. We highly recommend her in helping you find your home! Thank you for all your help Kim!

Rick & Julie Laube’s Testimonial

What can I say this is our 6th property within the last 20 years so very experienced buyer not mention I’m in sales myself. I was referred to Kim, right from the beginning I had no doubt… Wow nothing but professional more knowledgeable in the business and market than any realtor I have ever spoken with #1 “NOT PUSHY” or Overbearing. Kim only has one interest in mind and that is finding my wife and I the best and nicest property at the fairest price. Kim is totally NOT driven by a quick commission and she is not afraid to expose show stopper flaws in properties or advise to walk away. Working with Kim is a true safe partnership she actually listens, I would 110% recommend her to anyone she has proven herself – But sellers realtors beware with Kim you are dealing with a true Pitbull when you try to lie/hide or misrepresent anything you will lose!!! We love you Kim don’t lose those qualities, I’m sure we will call you soon always love buying real estate. Rick & Julie

Tony and Teri Puleo’s Testimonial

We could not have had a better experience with Kim and would never consider buying a property in the future without her! Kim’s knowledge, professionalism and responsiveness are unparalleled. She quickly learned our preferences, provided us with quality listings and accompanied us on every tour. While on the tour, Kim learns every detail that might be important to make the decision whether to make an offer, and that might be important during negotiation. She prepares thorough comps and gave us excellent advice on achieving the best, fair price. Kim also was invaluable during the inspection and pre-closing process. She made great recommendations for inspectors and she came to the inspection to make sure things ran smoothly. We had a situation where the listing realtor was doing a favor for the Seller at a reduced rate. Kim was able to keep the process on track for a timely closing despite several pre-closing conditions, and a less than responsive counterpart. Kim even had to do tasks that should have been performed by Seller’s realtor just to get the closing done on time. Kim goes above and beyond, even keeping in touch post-closing and providing us with checklists and contacts that will come in handy with our move. As you can see, we can’t say enough good things about Kim and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a home!

Tricia and Darren Hudema’s Testimonial

“New to Florida, we relied on Kim’s knowledge of what features to look for in buying a home in the area. She helped us to identify our must-haves in a home, and this greatly helped in narrowing our search to those homes worthy of consideration. Having a professional who understands the home buying process and was skilled in negotiation helped us stay focused on the end result–a home in which we are very happy!”

Eileen Swindling’s Testimonial

This is the 2nd time we have used Kim. There are no words to express our appreciation for all she did to help us with our home purchase. She not only recommended an outstanding mortgage broker, but also gave us a list of resources saving us countless hours of research. During our qualification period, Kim left on a previously planned vacation. During her time away, she not only responded to emails, but continued to stay in touch with the seller to assure the process was proceeding as planned. Additionally, because the seller did not have a listing agent, Kim stepped in to provide them information to assure we closed on time. Her uncompromising attention to detail and unbelievable knowledge of the mortgage process and construction issues make her an outstanding representative. We are thankful to have been the beneficiary of her knowledge and experience and would not hesitate to recommend her.”

Bob and Kay Kline’s Testimonial

“Kim is a fabulous buyer’s agent who certainly is a very experienced and knowledgeable expert in the local market. She made the stressful process of buying a home into an enjoyable experience. Once she knew our requirements and priorities she guided us through about a dozen homes in various communities pointing out the pluses and minuses of each home and exactly what extras had been put into the house. Once we chose our ideal house Kim skillfully negotiated for us the conditions, terms and pricing of the final contract. After the contract she guided us through the financing, inspection, insurance, and settlement processes. Kim is a pleasure to work with, and who was very responsive to our needs. I very highly recommend her as a top professional expert buyers agent.”

Mike Kahn’s Testimonial

“Kim is superstar relator and person for South Florida real estate. She is extremely knowledgable, attentive, caring, responsive, professional, and a true advocate to help you buy the right home. Kim treated us like family, she fought for us, took the time to understand our needs, made herself fully available when we needed her help. Words cant do Kim’s abilities and work ethic justice; she is truly the super-relator. I wish we could buy homes more often so we could work with Kim on a regular basis… maybe one day. She is excellent to work with and will help you find the right home. She will help you through a somewhat daunting process of finding a home, obtaining a lender, all the way to repairs and making sure things are done right. She is super organized, will stay ontop of tasks for you and help you with of things you may miss. She gives her all for her clients and she is just a wonderful person. Thank you Kim, we appreciate you more than you know.”

Marsha Huffsmith Testimonial

“We have lived on the west coast most of our lives and have visited Florida numerous times over the years. After retirement, we took another trip to Florida and thought we would look for a house while we were there. We soon found out we were overwhelmed with the real estate market. Lucky for us, we found Kim who helped us find a great home. She has a network of well qualified experts to make the buying process run smoothly. Kim always took the time to respond to our needs immediately while we were in Florida and after we returned to the west coast to sell our house. We highly reccommend her. She is the best!”

Jim McCormack Testimonial

“Calling Kim Bregman was the best decision we made when we started our home search in the Lake Worth/West Palm Beach area. We live in NY and were buying a retirement home in South Florida. We were looking for a special home: an older home with charm and character, in a walkable neighborhood. Kim guided us through the online home search, and when we traveled down to FL to look at homes in person, she devoted herself to our home search while we were in the area. Throughout the process Kim answered our questions, gave valuable advice, and even saved us from what may have been a costly mistake on a home with a hidden issue. When Kim became aware of a home that was soon going to be up for sale, she got us in with an offer even before the home was listed. Kim negotiated hard for us and bent over backwards to make sure we got the home…and we did. We are very happy with our new home and the only reason we got the perfect home for us is because of Kim’s hard work, superb knowledge and guidance, and excellent negotiating skills. If you’re looking to buy in South Florida, do yourself a big favor: call Kim Bregman. You will be glad you did.”

Judy Wein Testimonial

My husband and I were sitting in our midwest home looking out at a miserable snow storm and thinking about sunny Florida. Having spent multiple vacations over the past 30 years visiting our snowbird parents in florida with our children, we decided to look for rentals or for thw possiblity of purchasing a condo. I sent out quite a few inquiries without much response. I then located a condo on the ocean that looked inviting, sent out an inquiry, and Kim Bregman from Optima Properties responded. This began our wonderful relationship with Kim as our realtor who spent a wealth of time sending options of rentals and condo’s for sale…all the while listening to our needs and goals and fine tuning our search. She was professional, knowledgeable, resourceful, respectful of our budget, and so helpful. We came to Florida and began our search and we can now say that With Kim’s diligence in this endeavor, we are now the new owners of a condo that we love! She kept us informed of all that we needed to complete on our checklist from purchase to closing. Managed many things for us as we could not be there for all that we were required to accomplish. We are so happy and so thankful and would recommend Kim Bregman to anyone looking to buy in Florida! Thank you Kim!

Sylvia Barrera Testimonial

“Kim Bregman worked with me and my husband as a buyer’s real estate agent. She is very knowledgeable when she sees a house. She does not try to sell you any house to get a commission but notices important details that are not visible even to a detailed person. Not only that, she thinks of solutions that efficient and cost effective with great speed. This can only be done by a truly experienced and ethical buyer’s agent. That is what she is. Moreover, after we purchased the house, she provided us with great advice to work on. If I know of anybody looking for a buyer’s agent, I would definite recommend Kim as a realtor. She will help you a lot. I wish all the luck to her. She is a great person and great pleasure to work with.”

Robert Grochow Testimonial

“My wife and I were “getting lost” on the internet with thousands of potential offerings in the boca-delray-boynton area. We found Kim on line as a “buyer’s agent” which means “you” are her client and the allegiance is to your best interests. In advance of our visit Kim focused in our interests and then started feeding us homes that fit our style and budget. This gave us more focus. We had three days in Florida and Kim spent the entire time with us. We bought new in a development but having Kim present at every step was wonderful. She sat in on meetings, negotiated with the seller and walked us through the process. Once in contract, she continued to stay involved at every step through closing consistently updating us with items that had to be done in advance. She is also a great resource of services in the area. On top of all her professionalism and knowledge, she is truly a nice person and easy to work with. Really highly recommend her for your house hunting needs.”

Kim did a great job for me. I am making an out of state move to south Florida and as a first time buyer there is a lot involved. It’s easy to get charmed by a property but Kim was there to point out pros and cons of the real estate and location that would not occur to me until I found the right  buy. She had my back the whole way. She also followed up with checklists and reminders on what I would need to complete the move smoothly. Not surprisingly Kim also impressed my attorney.

Glenn Reichfield’s Testimonial

I desperately needed a buyers broker in Florida due to selling my home in NY in the last week of July, packing up the contents, getting my older boy off to his freshman year at Albany, finding a home in South Florida and getting my younger son into Florida High School. I needed someone I can rely on and trust. I am a diligent person, who likes to be hands on. In this situation, I didn’t have time. Kim handled all aspects for us and basically held our hands through the home buying process and was extremely professional in all aspects of the home buying process. Even after we bought our home, she continues to help us out with medical and professional references. I highly recommend Kim and will definitely be using again to find my next home.

Michael & Alissa Lamoureux’s Testimonial

“I am writing this to highly recommend Kim Bregman to any perspective Home Buyer. My wife and I were new to Florida and had very little idea of where we wanted to live or what type of house we wanted to live in. We went through several realtors until we met Kim and knew that she was the one who could help us find our home. Kim is a hardworking and dedicated realtor. She is not only a great realtor who really knows the business; she’s also a very caring and genuine woman who strives for perfection. She takes the time to understand the needs and objectives of all her customers and helps them reach their goals. Kim showed us many houses throughout the Palm Beach area over a six to eight month process and the amount of hours and discussions we had were extraordinary. The personal attention and direction she provided kept us focused and helped to narrow down what we wanted in a home. Without Kim’s expertise we would not have found the house that we loved. We saw a house that was well above our budget but that we fell in love with. Kim knowing the market knew the house was well above market value and put a plan in place to close the deal. Through her expertise and guidance she worked with the Seller’s realtor for months. We eventually came to a short sale agreement that both we and the seller were happy with. This was very new to us but Kim walked us through everything and in the end we closed on our dream home. I would say that our buying experience was extraordinary because of our realtor. We have purchased and sold many homes in the past but Kim was the best. I am glad we did not settle for other realtor’s and you shouldn’t either. A home buying decision is one of the biggest decisions of your life so go with the best like we did. Thank you for everything Kim. We love our new home and it would not have happened without you.Sincerely,Michael & Alissa.”

“We are UK citizens looking at the possibility of purchasing a second home in Florida. We discovered Kim through internet research and interacted with her extensively prior to visiting the East coast.

We spent a full day with Kim and were really impressed with her knowledge, experience and the guidance that she provided throughout the day. Even when we intimated that we might be more drawn to the Gulf coast and therefore would not be purchasing in her domain, she continued to offer advice and support. Indeed, she offered to help in any way she could regardless whether we purchase from another Realtor.

Kim is a consummate professional, a lovely lady and I would not hesitate to recommend her.”

I worked with several agents before Kim. None of them were looking out for my interests. None of them seemed interested in making a sale, even in these times.

You can´t ask for much more. Thanks Kim!

Ron and Kim Leslie’s Testimonial

“We actually found Kim by accident, but boy are we glad we did! She contacted us as a result of an inquiry on-line. Being new to the area, she spent a day with us, just showing us around and discussing several different neighborhoods. We were not easy customers, dramatically changing what we were looking for more than once. But she stayed with us and helped us really zero in on what we really wanted with sage advice and asking us wise questions. We had an Australian Shepherd which we were concerned about leaving in a motel room by herself. Kim insisted we bring her along. We ended up buying a new home yet to be built. She has stayed with us over the months offering help with the mortgage folks, home inspections and a few issues with the builder. She has earned her money several times over. Fantastic job!”Outstanding support. Really able to zero in on what we liked and didn’t like so it sped up the process. Has provided excellent list of others for custom furniture and remodeling.”

Bing Tian’s Testimonial

“I am a buyer living in China 8000 miles away from Florida, I wanted to buy a property in Boca Raton but was not able to make a trip to the US, can you imagine that I sucessfully purchased my dream house of over 1 million dollars without seeing it in person ? Kim made this happen ! And I still feel like I’m in a dream. I started communication with her since last year and made serious effort from this July, finished the purchase in September, during the whole process, Kim was my eyes and ears, we had numerous communications, she was extremely professional and patient helping me understand every single detail, there were several occassions I questioned my decision to buy without seeing, but Kim handled these sensative moments perfectly, she’s always been very honest and objective, it was her quality that made believe she is the one I can trust 100%, She played the decisive role in selecting the right property which suits our needs best, not the more expensive ones. After the purchase, I still could not go to the US to take care of my property, Kim volunteered to represent me on handling of all the post purchase affairs, there are so many of them like installing the closet and bathroom appliance, activating the alarming system, pool maintaining etc…, Kim did all these extra work and is still doing for me like for her own house. We decided to rent the house out after purchase, she acted on behalf of us to talk to the the listing agent (she only work for buyers), less than 15 days of purchase, I already had a 6 months lease in hand with very good rent ! I am so lucky to have Kim as our agent (now friend !). Kim: be prepared for more purchases ! We will only work with you for future house buying in the southern palm beach area. One final word to buyers: work with an agent who only serve the buyers, it’s complete different experience and you will not regret for it.”

Leonard Klingbaum’s Testimonial

“I retained Kim as my broker in connection with the purchase of a property in Florida. Kim showed me dozens of properties all over south Florida, never once complaining about the time commitment she invested in me. Moreover, Kim always offered a professional’s view on each property (e.g., what I should expect to pay for repairs, maintenance, etc), and helpful and clear market comparables and, when the time came, effective negotiating strategy. Kim is very responsive via email and telephone, and seems to work around the clock 7 days a week. In addition to just acting as a buyer’s broker, Kim offers advice, tips and guidance relating to everything from hiring a lawyer to where to find a cleaning company to clean my new home. Nothing ever is too much for Kim to do, and she always handles things with a smile.”

We had sold our old house can was under the gun to find a new one. Kim was knowledge about all aspects of the neighborhoods and communities in our search area.

Eileen Swindling’s Testimonial

“Kim Bregman was our best resource in fining our dream home. We had numerous “special criteria” making it difficult to find the perfect home. Kim knew exactly where to look, finding exactly what we wanted. When our bank created such problems we feared we would not be able to close, Kim was patient and dealt directly with the bank. During the entire process she provided professional service, advising us on everything from mortgage brokers to carpet cleaners. She answered all of our questions in minutes, whether by phone, email, or text. She was always available. The ONLY thing that could make her service better is if she cloned herself! She is 100% the most knowledgeable professional in the business. Thanks, Kim!

Robert Lesica and Kimberly Gasko Lesica’s Testimonial

“My family decided to relocate from NY to South Florida not knowing anything about the area and we struck gold in selecting Kim Bregman as our realtor. She covered everything from the best communities for our family’s needs to recommendations on every aspect of the relocation. She took the time to take us to all the houses and had a phenomenal feel for what we were looking for in a home.

A house came on the market that already had a couple of bids in and we did not have the time to fly down to see for ourselves. We had 100% confidence in Kim’s recommendation that this was the house for us and purchased the home without even stepping foot in the home. We are thrilled with our purchase and so happy we picked Kim as our agent.

She has been a tremendous reference for us as we made this huge decision to relocate and I couldn’t imagine making this transition without her.”

“My husband and I purchased a home in Flat Rock, NC. We relocated from New Jersey. We were referred to Kim Bregman and met with her and instantly knew she was our agent. Due to our circumstances of long distance buying, we needed someone with total knowledge of the real estate market in Western North Carolina. Not only did she know the market she was dead on in helping us select our home. We would not have been able to do the commuting from NJ to NC in selling our home and finding one in NC with our time frame. We are so grateful to Kim for her knowledge, expertise and direction from handling the mortgage, insurance, attorney and whatever else was needed.”

Michael & Alissa Lamoureux’s Testimonial

“I am writing this to highly recommend Kim Bregman to any perspective Home Buyer. My wife and I were new to Florida and had very little idea of where we wanted to live or what type of house we wanted to live in. We went through several realtors until we met Kim and knew that she was the one who could help us find our home.

Kim is a hardworking and dedicated realtor. She is not only a great realtor who really knows the business; she’s also a very caring and genuine woman who strives for perfection. She takes the time to understand the needs and objectives of all her customers and helps them reach their goals.

Kim showed us many houses throughout the Palm Beach area over a six to eight month process and the amount of hours and discussions we had were extraordinary. The personal attention and direction she provided kept us focused and helped to narrow down what we wanted in a home.

Without Kim’s expertise we would not have found the house that we loved. We saw a house that was well above our budget but that we fell in love with. Kim knowing the market knew the house was well above market value and put a plan in place to close the deal. Through her expertise and guidance she worked with the Seller’s realtor for months. We eventually came to a short sale agreement that both we and the seller were happy with. This was very new to us but Kim walked us through everything and in the end we closed on our dream home.

I would say that our buying experience was extraordinary because of our realtor. We have purchased and sold many homes in the past but Kim was the best. I am glad we did not settle for other realtor’s and you shouldn’t either. A home buying decision is one of the biggest decisions of your life so go with the best like we did.

Thank you for everything Kim. We love our new home and it would not have happened without you.

Ed & Lisa Lee Thanz’s Testimonial

“Kim Bregman worked with my wife and I as a buyer’s agent from 2011 to 2012. Our first meeting was to be in December of 2011. We planned to drive, and Kim had her plane ticket to Asheville. At the last minute, my father-in-law became ill and we were compelled to cancel the trip to North Carolina. Kim was extremely kind and understanding. She said family and health are most important and not to worry about insignificant details like plane tickets.

Our next visit was scheduled for March of 2012. Though we currently live and teach in Florida, Kim made our search for a retirement home in North Carolina easy with her regular communication, extensive knowledge of the market and exemplary organizational skills. Kim had her work cut out for her when she took us on as clients. Not only were we looking at both raw land and homes with acreage, our preferences were quite specific, most of which were non negotiable. Kim hiked up mountains, through brush and sludge, over creeks, and did whatever was needed to see the land. To complicate matters, we were also considering property in Tennessee and Virginia. Kim immediately found agents to assist us in our extended search area.

Our next visit was in the summer of 2012. Now that Kim had a complete idea of what we wanted, she previewed parcels of land to see if they were worth viewing. As we had a limited search window, this time saver was invaluable. We came to trust Kim very easily as we learned her expertise, dedication and work ethic made her a true professional. I recall the time my wife and I hiked up a steep mountain path, leaving Kim with our chocolate lab back at her car. Kim grew worried when our dog became over heated. She lifted that 70-pound dog into the back of her car, gave her water and ran the air conditioning until we returned. That’s what I call a caring professional.

We found the perfect property in July of 2012. Kim’s assistance was again invaluable as we tried to accomplish everything from making an offer to closing in a very short period. Kim provided us with a variety of options for every conceivable need we might have. We took care of business, returned to Florida, and closed at the end of August. Kim was with us every step of the way.

We are now the proud owners of a beautiful log cabin nestled by a cascading creek in the middle of a secluded mountain cove. My wife and I are thrilled with our new home. We feel lucky and grateful we found Kim Bregman, realtor and friend.”

Over the next couple months, Kim worked hard to make sure we were able to get the house at a great price & make sure we were protected as buyers. With Kim’s help we were able to get our dream home at a great price.

Mark and Mary Anne Schiller’s Testimonial

“My wife and I had a recent opportunity to work with Kim Bregman to help us locate and purchase a second home in the Maggie Valley, N.C. area.

As our primary home is located in the eastern part of North Carolina, it was not convenient for us to get in the car and drive to Maggie Valley every time a property of interest came on the market.

Kim worked with us to fully understand both the type and general location of property that would suit our interest. She organized property information and visits that allowed us to very easily compare and select from multiple properties in only a few visits to the area.

As an experienced business professional myself, I found her skills in listening for understanding, effective management of her time and ours, completeness of information, attention to detail, highly effective negotiating skills and overall professionalism to be unmatched.

The home that we purchased with Kims assistance is number eight for us.
The experience to get from the first e-mail with Kim to the closing signatures was flawless. She truly represented our interests, as the buyer, in every aspect of the process. I would highly recommend her services to anyone seeking a property to purchase.”

“Kim Bregman’s assistance with helping us find and purchase a second home in North Carolina was invaluable.

I received a flier in the mail at our Florida home from Optima Properties and decided to contact Kim. Kim was a pleasure to work with and recommended that we expand our areas to include properties west, south and north of Asheville as well. She pulled all the MLS listings that covered our targeted price points and provided insight to each listing with her knowledge of the area and second home nuances that we should be mindful of. Kim offered to meet us in Asheville and spent two days driving us around the NW North Carolina Mountains looking at all the listings we had identified. When we made an offer on a home she was very instrumental in securing the deal by assisting with the surveyor, home inspector and Title attorney. We would not have been able to have found the home that we did and been able to close on the home as effortlessly as we did without Kim and would Highly recommend her to anyone that is thinking of buying a home in NC as she can make the entire process very easy and enjoyable.”

Evelyn and John Theis – Sarasota, FL Testimonial

“Whether or not you are a first time buyer, house hunting is a stressful experience, especially in areas and surroundings not thoroughly familiar to a buyer.

Kim Bregman of Optima Properties, could not have been more accommodating, patient as well as relentless in helping us in our search during our house hunting expedition in the Asheville, North Carolina area.

Everyday, under no pressure nor any loss of time, and starting early in the morning, the itinerary was efficiently planned, according to the information we initially provided. We visited several possibilities, with Kim, always very cheerful, expertly driving us within a radius of some fifty miles from where we were staying.

Unfortunately, due to the downturn in the housing market in Florida, we had to postpone our plans to acquire a new residence in the Asheville, North Carolina area. However, once we are ready, hopefully in the not too distant future, we look forward to working again with Kim.

We are most appreciative and thankful to Kim Bregman for her friendly manner and professional expertise, and her follow-up newsletters and bulletins are always full of informative and interesting subjects.”
