Buying a home from overseas is a unique and demanding challenge, but your team was not afraid to take us on. I feel we got the right advice at the right time, and like we truly had someone in our corner. It was wonderful being exposed to a whole network of trustworthy professionals and enjoyed getting to know you on a personal level - THANK YOU!

Dear Irene and Jerry:
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your dedication and commitment, which resulted in the sale of our Winter Park home.
Your team from day one exhibited the professionalism and enthusiasm it takes to realize a sale in these tough economic times. Your no nonsense step by step approach gave us the information we needed to come up with a realistic sale price.
Having sold only one other home in our lifetime and the difficulties that sale presented with multiple unqualified buyers, we were not looking forward to selling the Winter Park house. I can tell you that there was no comparison to that previous experience. More importantly, it was surprising to have two contract offers on the same day and be in the pleasant position of deciding which contract to accept.
We hope the new owners will have many happy years in the home. Their excitement and interest made the process of selling the family home less painless. It appears as though their trainsition as the new owners will continue the family tradition, which was so much a part of this home.
Once again, thank you for your reliability and determination.
Sincerely,
Carl J. Hopf, Jr.

Dear Kraig and Jerry,
I want to thank both of you for working so hard on our behalf to get this accomplished. Kraig, it seems like yesterday, when we had our first conversation (maybe Nov), in which you detailed some the mine fields regarding Florida real estate.
Of course, that included a primer on short sales, and after that conversation, I was sure I didn't want to go that route. mmm. Well, as it turned out, we were able to "dance" around all of the problems. See you soon, thanks again. Bill Goodrow

It has been a pleasure doing business with you and I would gladly recommend your services to anyone who would be looking to buy or sell a home in your area. The names you offered for painters and an appraiser were much appreciated. Everything worked out well! This is the second house we have been involved with and both were sold within a week of the initial listing. Considering the current market conditions, you did a great job of getting this sale consummated."
Thanks! Darrell & Shelley Livingston

I want to sincerely thank you for your Herculean efforts on our behalf. I feel blessed to have such a great group consistently going above and beyond the call of duty to make this work. I am sorry for all the hassles you've had to endure to keep the ball rolling. Thank you again all for your outstanding service, professionalism and impeccable attention to detail. We couldn't of handled this without your help. We are thrilled with this opportunity and look forward to coming down in February to furnish the place and make it our own. You guys are the best and I have already referred you to friends. God Bless.

Dear Jerry and Kraig,
Amanda and I wanted to be sure to thank you for the excellent service we received in purchasing our new home (in fact the service continued after the deal was closed when you assisted me with filing for the tax credit.) Clearly, you spend significant time considering how best to practice in real estate and we were nothing but impressed with your courtesy, advocacy, professionalism and knowledge. It took a very short period of interaction for it become evident that your business is your passion, and there is an infectious quality to this that made the process of purchasing a home even more enjoyable for us. I also found it personally rewarding and advantageous that in addition to getting a great house for a great price, I learned more about real estate than I ever planned; your attentions to detail were superlative. On a more personal note, we have both sincerely enjoyed our conversations and email correspondence. It was nice to learn that repartee is not a lost art. Amanda and I are confidently and happily referring our friends and acquaintances to you and will continue to do so. Thanks again for all your hard work.
Sincerely,
Robert Janner, Psy.D.

Dear Jerry,
It is hard to believe that it has been over three months since we closed on our new home. We
have been quite busy making this our home, and it turned out great! Our family is very happy
with the location and every aspect of our new home.
Heidi and I are grateful to you and your team for the excellent guidance and patience you
provided through the process. As you know, we were fortunate enough to work with you on
previous move to Central Florida, which was also an excellent experience. One of the greatest
assets that we experienced was how well your team worked together. We quickly realized that
we did not just have an individual agent working for us, but a diverse team of consummate
professionals, that complement one another in many different ways.
The contract that your team prepared was complete and accurate, and protected our interests.
Your team also covered so many details and provided the right information at the right time
every step along the way. We also appreciate the continued guidance through follow-up emails
and your newsletter.
We would strongly recommend your services to any friend or relative that has a need for real
estate agent, and feel good knowing that they too will be satisfied with your service.
Thank you again!
Sincerely,
Dr. and Mrs. Kurt Steiner

Jerry Stoffer and Team did great job helping us find our vacation home in Florida. After weeks of trying to engage other companies to help us (we were from out of state) with our 2nd home search, I found Jerry Stoffer'sTeam on the web. Jerry was on the job in just minutes after our first contact with him. Jerry worked very hard with us on our home search. The result was a lovely home in great community!!
It was great working with Jerry. We are extremely happy with the home and would call Jerry Stoffer again for our realty needs.

The Stoffer/Zeh Team accomplished a rare success in 2008 - they sold our home! The 2008 housing market is very difficult for the seller. The Stoffers' attention to detail, and awareness of changing market conditions, gave us a distinct advantage. We appreciate their professional approach to the process.
We don't have any suggestions. The Stoffer/Zeh Team is very competent and efficient at what they do. We can't wait for someone to ask "Do you know a good realtor?"

We appreciate your time and dedication in making our relocation to the Orlando area a smooth transition. The Stoffer/Zeh team does their homework and doesn't waste time for its clients. We are so impressed with your negotiation skills. A+ in our book. Thank you so much!
Another comment...we appreciate that you took the time to listen to our needs - even to the point of discovering things we needed/wanted that we hadn't realized!
We will be happy to recommend you to everyone we know!

Dear Jerry and Irene,
In 2000 Georgia and I bought a home in Florida and found a great deal because of the expertise you and Irene brought to the table.
You both were so professional and helpful that we still remembered you 8 years later and contacted you to sell the property. Once again you demonstrated why you are tops in your business by negotiating a deal with a buyer to get our home sold in spite of a very difficult real estate market.
We thank you again and we would certainly recommend the Stoffer team to anyone wanting and needing the advice of an expert Realtor.
Respectfully,

Dear Kraig & Jerry,
I thank you for all the fine effort that you and your team displayed in reaching closure on our new second home in Florida. Lindsay has, once again, left me to get on with it in the UK and sneaked another 12 days vacation at the property. She is probably lounging by the pool at this time. I can't say that I relish the morning emails from her, describing the blue sky and warm temperatures however, within time I will be able to make some time there myself. I hope that I will be able to meet up with you to thank you personally.
Anyway, Lindsay and myself were delighted with the service offered by Remax. Considering it was an overseas transaction, it was carried out very efficiently. Considering all things, it was quite a smooth transaction.
Regards and thank you once again.

Dear Stoffers,
Back in December 2004 Jerry Stoffer helped us to find our dream home. Because Jerry is a great listener he understood what we really wanted and it took us only a few days and half a dozens of showings to find our very special home in Winter Park, Florida. Jerry maneuvered us through the complex buying process and huge paper work with ease and thus buying our home was a very pleasant experience. In mid of 2007 my company asked me to relocate to Atlanta and we knew immediately that the Stoffer's will get our business. Selling in a tough market is nerve-racking and there were times when my wife and I didn't know what to think or do. But luckily we had the Stoffers: Irene, Jerry, Kraig, and Michelle did a fabulous job. They were always there for us with the right advice and they listened with great empathy to our concerns and worries. Finally we sold our house against all market challenges for a very good price and we wouldn't have done it without the Stoffers. The Bottom-Line: The Stoffers are a top-proffessional, tremendiously experienced realtor family we would always do business with because we TRUST them 100%. If you look for a trustworthy, outstanding performing and kind realtor - go with the Stoffers!

Jerry,
The speed in which we purchased our vacation home was a little bit intimidating; however, with Jerry at our side halting proceedings to explain everything during the purchase, was reassuring. The Stoffer Team is another name for "excellence."
Many thanks for your assistance in completing this vacation home transaction which we readily acknowledge has been made easy for us due to your very professional and diligent approach.
We most certainly will consider you and your partners when we are considering further purchases in the future as we were extremely satisfied with the standard of service provided.
We look forward to doing more successful business in the future.
Kind Regards,
Sheila & Frankie McNeill

Jerry,
Tara and I want to thank you for all your work getting us into our new Orlando home. This summer was extremely busy with the move from California, Tara starting a new job and I deploying to Iraq so needless to say there was no time or patience left to face a difficult home purchase. We set out at the beginning to find the best, most qualified Orlando realtor and that is exactly what we found working with you. It was a great relief knowing that you were taking care of everything from finding a great mortgage to making sure that the lawn was green when we moved in. That level of detail, hard work and caring by you and your team made what can be a nightmare cross-country transaction extremely easy with everything closing as planned and no loose ends or concerns for either party. We were in fact pleasantly surprised a number of times to hear that you were able to get additional money for closing costs, buy down the interest rate and neogtiate for home repair expenses. Many realtors would have stopped working as soon as their clients were happy which for us was well before the number of additional efforts you made on our behalf. Few professionals would continue to work for a better transaction for their client but we were not surprised given all the hard work we had already witnessed from you.
We will always remember the great job you and your team did for us and will let others know where to find a friendly and highly experienced real estate professional. Thank you again for all that you have done to help us become a part of this great community in a wonderful home.
Sincerely,
LT. Mark Lampman |

RE/MAX,
My wife and I would like to let you know just how pleased we are with the service and commitment we received from both Mr. Jerry Stoffer and Mr. Dave Holbrook (Countrywide Home Loans) and their associated staffs. We moved this summer from California and I found Mr. Stoffer by searching Realtor.com by qualifications held by local realtors. He was one of the two most qualified agents listed on the site and lived up to our expectations in every way. He found us a great home the first day of looking that exceeded our expectations and went to work immediately to get the best deal possible. There were a number of times he would call to inform us that he was able to negotiate on closing costs or that home repairs would be compensated with a payment from the seller. It was great to have an agent who had already “sold” us on the house continue to negotiate to get a better deal. We were well taken care of throughout the home purchasing process despite buying the home while still being in California. We knew Mr. Stoffer was looking out for our needs when he made sure even the smallest details were handled. He called periodically to make sure that we were up to date on the home purchase process and even made it a point to make sure the lawn was watered before we moved in. Jerry’s extensive experience saved us from a problem of our own making when our mortgage through our local California broker was not going to be able to make the escrow timeline. Jerry had already anticipated that we may have a difficult time getting an out of state lender to properly process a Florida loan so he introduced us to Mr. Holbrook of Countrywide.
Dave had spoken to us during our house hunting trip to Orlando while we searched for our home but in no way tried to pressure us into working with him. He understood that we wanted to work with our longtime broker if at all possible but was more than willing to help explain Florida loan requirements and procedures to us. Tara and I remembered Dave’s no pressure assistance and asked if he would be able to help us secure a loan at the last minute when our original loan plan fell through. He quickly went to work and was able to get a great loan completed prior to closing in a matter of days and was able to offer us an interest buy down option that made sense for us. It is difficult to find someone who will provide their assistance even though they are not working for you. His invaluable assistance, no pressure help coupled with his ability to get a great loan at the last minute really rounded out our exceptional experience working with RE/MAX. Thank you again for helping us make Orlando our home and we look forward to working with Jerry, Dave and the rest of the RE/MAX team and associates again in the future.
Sincerely,
Mark and Dr. Tara Lampman |

Hi Jerry,
You and your team have been amazing! I hope that all of my future house buying transactions go as smoothly as this one did.
As you know, I'm not a typical client. All of the people I've ever worked with in various industries have had to follow me by Satelite phones because I was on cruise ships, or be available during a 20 minute block of a specific day... in short, I'm a difficult client, and a bit out of the norm. I really appreacite the time and effort that your team provided me.
I can't say enough how easy this transaction was. Had I known buying a house was this easy, I would have done it years ago and not wasted my money on rent.
I have a bit more reading to do before purchasing a house for investment purposes, but intend to towards November/December when the market has slowed down. You have my word that I will come to you first for this transaction. You all have been great.
Thank you.

Dear Irene, Jerry and Kraig,
We wish to express our thanks for excellent service these past months as our Realtors. It has been a challenging time; however, we enjoyed the successful listing and sale of our Winter Springs house. Thanks to each of you and to Michelle for processing the many details involved in this transaction.
Continued success,

When I sold my house in 2002, I started looking for a new place. However, no Realtor was able to understand my needs. As soon as I met Jerry and Kraig I noticed the difference. They were able to find me a condominium of my dream. The success is due to their high level of education and credentials, they are not only Realtors, but much more. It is combined skills which make them succeed.

Dear Jerry, Kraig & Irene Stoffer,
First I would like to share how happy I am with my new home. There aren't really any words that can express they joy and how glad I am to have had the opportunity to find and purchase such a great home. With that being said; I'm completely aware of the fact that all of my joy would not have been possible without the MAGNIFICENT, OUTSTANDING, AND MARVELOUS Stoffer Team. And although all 3 of those words describe something of someone that is without a doubt EXTREMELY special, they all fall short of describing the Stoffer Team.
Kraig and Jerry, I really can't find any words to express my gratitude to you both either. I'm so lucky to have been referred to a team of people that aren't only amiable, professional and courteous, but that are also exceptionally knowledgeable of the Real Estate business, and "home purchasing" process & experience. I want to thank all of you for everything; from giving me those first phone calls and connecting me with David at Homebanc, for answering the many questions I've had from day 1 all the way to this day, for giving me the opportunity to see so many homes available to me, for locating so many different homes that fit my needs & requirements, for staying up late and working for me, for providing such great information to me at all times, for making numerous phone calls for me, and the list goes on and on, but most of all I'd like to thank you for your sincere friendship and for allowing me the opportunity to become your friend as well. Thank you!!!
Sincerely,

Hi Jerry and Irene & Kraig,
We hope all is well on your end. Thanks again for all your help in getting our house on Cypress Drive sold so quickly. I don't believe we would have been able to get it done before the cut off date without your assistance! As Irene said, a miracle happened.
Over the past 15 years, we have had asked the Stoffer/Zeh to assist us in buying and selling three homes. Their knowledge of the real estate market is unsurpassed. All of our transactions with them have been professional and smooth. Phone calls are always returned promptly and home inspections and repairs are done quickly through their professional contacts. We highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
We wish you continued success and good health.
Fondly,

I hope this note finds you enjoying the Christmas season. I just wanted to thank you and Jerry both for a wonderful buying experience. At times the lender made the process difficult but the two of you smoothed it all out. I know my family & I will enjoy our Winter Park condo throughout the years. If we ever decide to sell our condo, we will certainly be contacting you. Thank you again for your efforts and best wishes in the new year.

my younger days I was a realtor. In the past 30 years I have bought & sold
20+ properties as a client. In all of them I have never met anyone as professional,

suggestion would be to clone them. The industry needs more like them.
I would recommend

To: Jerry & Irene Stoffer & their Team Comments: Always
the total professionals with a complete well oiled team. Many thanks for all your
efforts over the last 20 years. Because of your team efforts, five (5) houses
have been sold or bought over the years. We always had a complete sense of certainty
that it was done correctly and that we always came out with the best deal. There
was never any doubt when the time came to sell or buy; it was call the Stoffers.
Many thanks again and if we are ever lead to return to Orlando we know who to
call. Also if we know of anybody heading that way we have your card ready to go.
Suggestion: Keep up the great job! It is hard to find such dedicated and
knowledgeable people. Recommendation: Any Time, it would be a pleasure
and a great honor. Judy & Dan Nigro |

20, 2005 Dear
Jerry and Irene: For
anyone seeking a Realtor in the Orlando area with recognized experience and professionalism,
and the highest level of personal care and concern for their clients, the Stoffer
Team is "It." This is what we believe and tell others when given the
chance. I was visiting your website recently. That is something we still do when
looking for reliable and accurate information from finance to just seeing how
the market is performing. I was prompted to write after reading the many letters
of recommendation from other clients and recognizing at least one whom I had referred.
His letter reminded me of all the great work you have done for us in the past. Having
sold one home and purchased two with your guidance thus far (1999 and 2004) we
would certainly do so again. This, coupled with the fact that you helped us find
our new home after only a one day search, made the entire experience a breeze.
When you recall that my wife was nearing the end of a difficult pregnancy, which
grew more so as closing approached, your help through each phase of the process
was invaluable. Please be assured that the Stoffer team continues to be the first
and only recommendation from this family. Christopher
R. Fay, Esq. |

2005 Dear Jerry, Marianne and I couldn't be happier with our
house and location. We always want to show that we appreciate this by recommending
you to anyone looking to more. As soon as I know that a faculty member
has been made an offer and accepted that offer (and only then, as it is inappropriate
to discuss finding a house until you know someone has a job) I try to recommend
them to talk to you. Again, we couldn't be happier and appreciate the
extra effort you put in to show your appreciation of our recommendations.

1, 2004 I strongly
recommend Jerry & Irene Stoffer to anyone who is selling or buying a house,
and have recommend the Stoffers to many of my friends. When it came time to purchase
my first house, a friend put me in touch with Jerry. Getting Jerry on board to
help me with the purchase turned out to be the smartest decision I made in the
entire process. Although
I know that my purchase did not earn Jerry any huge commissions, he treated me
as though I was his most important client. Jerry went above and beyond the normal
duties of a real estate agent, and explained to me, step by step, the process
of purchasing a home for the very first time. Jerry provided invaluable insight
and advice on every aspect of the home buying process, from where to focus my
search to how soon to lock in a rate for my mortgage. Often, Jerry would return
my calls long after business hours were over, and patiently answer all of my many
questions and address my many concerns. When I encountered problems and delays
with the builder of my home, Jerry often did my dirty work for me, tirelessly
prodding the builder and others to provide better service. When I encountered
a few last minute unexpected snags on the day of closing, it was Jerry who handled
the situation and made sure my title company resolved the problem. Even after
closing, Jerry has continued to stay in touch, and offer his sagely advise on
other home related issued which have arisen. The
Stoffers are veteran real estate agents who have been involved in the Orlando
community for years. Their experience and familiarity with the area, the market,
and the people associated with Orlando real estate proved to be invaluable. Jerry's
tireless efforts, wisdom, and savvy advice were my greatest asset in my search
for a new home. Without his help, I know that my first experience in home buying
would have proven infinitely more stressful. There is no question that I will
call on the Stoffers again the next time I buy or sell a home, and I would strongly
encourage anyone else to do the same. Sincerely,
Scott Danahy, Esq. |
| May
25, 2004 We are
sorry that the Stoffers won't move from state to state with us to manage all of
our relocations. They really worked hard on our behalf and the process was the
smoothest we had ever experience. We absolutely will recommend them to friends
and associates. Thomas

15, 2004 Jerry and Irene - I can't believe it's taken us so long to tell

2, 2004 Jerry helped me buy my first investment property in Florida and
because of him, the experience was easy & successful. I have been a real estate
broker in Ohio for 20 years and discovered through Jerry the real meaning of service.
He is the most committed REALTOR® I have ever seen to the client's needs.
I will recommend to friends or associates. Susan K. Fantz |

25, 2003 Jerry did a great job! As first time home buyers, it was a bit
nerve racking for us but Jerry explained things clearly and put our minds at ease.
He also acted quickly and negotiated fairly when we found the house we wanted.
His quick thinking also gave us a home warranty on our house! Job well done!!
Without a doubt we'd recommend to our friends or associates. T.

7, 2003 Dear Jerry:
I would like
to take this opportunity to thank you for your help in finding my home in Central
Florida. I believe that I will enjoy it and I cannot wait for the completion.
I appreciate that you provided an environment that was not pressured which enabled
me to make a clear sound decision. I know that it did take me some time to make
the decision but with your help I am very satisfied with the decision that I made.
You even took the time to educate Jason on the process. If there is anyway that
I can be used as a reference for future business for you I most certainly not
hesitate to do so. Again,
thank you very much. Winsome

4, 2003 You guys
really made this whole moving process so much easier on us! You all seemed a few
steps ahead of the process. Thank you Jerry for helping us find our dream home.
I doubt we could've done this without your team. We will definitely recommend
anyone to you. Thanks so much! Traci

24, 2003 Dear
Jerry and Irene: Thank
you for your assistance in the recent sale of our home in Hunter's Creek, and
the purchase of our new home in the Dr. Phillips area. Things could not have gone
better in either transaction. When
we moved to Orlando from northern Virginia in 1998, you were recommended to us
by our RE/MAX agent there. She was good, but you are better! That's why we have
stayed with you for three real estate transactions. We
are so pleased! Thanks again for your timely, professional and courteous service
- as well as your follow-up. We are happy to recommend you to any serious home
buyer or seller. Sincerely, R.J
& Nancy Farris Orlando, FL |

13, 2002 I have listed, sold and purchased several homes in the past
and have never had a pleasant experience. I was assured by Irene Stoffer this
would not be the case with her handling our listing and sale of our home. She
was absolutely correct. Irene managed the fast and efficient sale of our home
with care and professionalism. I highly recommend Irene Stoffer to anyone looking
for an honest and professional Realtor. Cheryl

15, 2002 Dear
Jerry, We love
our new home and have you to thank. We appreciate your good work helping us to
find and purchase this home. Since we were moving to Florida from outside of the
country, we were pleased that we could find you on the Internet and make contact
through e-mail. It helped us to get the process going even before we arrived in
the US. We appreciated your knowledge of the market, attention to our needs, and
we were surprised how you helped us sort through the confusion and pin point the
house that really met our heart's desire and fit our needs. You told us how important
location was, and now as we enjoy the ease and convenience of shopping and getting
our daughter to school, we really appreciate the importance of that message. We
were thankful for your knowledge and smooth handling of all the administrative
and paperwork details. Your associate, Kathy Steeley, proved to be an excellent
point of contact to help us through the final details and keep everything on track
for a quick closing. And one final caveat, thanks to thoughtful handling of the
sellers, we have a nice relationship with the former owners, as they even stopped
by later to show us a couple details about the house. We are happy to recommend
you to others buying a home in the Orlando area. Sincerely, Dean
& Kathy Thomas Wycliffe Bible Translators 667

July 31, 2002 Hi Jerry and Irene Jay and I are doing great.
We love our house! We've slowly done some small projects and all is going
well. We really appreciate all of the hard work that your team had put in
including twisting my arm to look into a neighborhood we hadn't considered. Good
thing you did, that was the house that we bought! We haven't had any issues thus
far and don't expect anything out of the ordinary. We shall certainly
recommend your team for anyone that we come across either buying or selling. Whenever
the time comes for us to buy/sell, you will definitely hear from us. Also, I really
enjoy the website updates, so keep them coming. Please give Cathy our
regards and I hope that you all enjoy continued success! Please feel free
to use my name as a possible reference if needed. All
the best! Robert

June 14, 2001 Dear
Jerry, I am writing to thank you for the friendly and professional service
you and your team gave my wife and I during our relocation to Orlando. When I
first called from Connecticut to ask for assistance, your team was so helpful
in sending information on the area, and answering my many questions. I
would recommend your services to anyone who needs experienced help in finding
and negotiating for a home in the Orlando area, especially someone who is new
to the area. Your consideration to our requests and showing only homes that met
our profile was greatly appreciated. Thanks
again to all the Stoffer team!! Sincerely, Chip

Stoffer RE/MAX 200 Realty Winter Park, FL Dear Jerry,
I wanted to thank you for the courtesies and professionalism you extended to myself
and my family as we relocated from the Tampa area to Orlando. Through
your efforts, our search for a home, obtaining a mortgage, and the closing were
accomplished under a tight schedule without problems and, most importantly, to
our complete satisfaction. My wife in particular was thankful for the maps, school,
and community information you provided and for listening when she described the
type of home we wanted to live in. Myself, I appreciated working with
someone who had a complete understanding of the financial aspects of purchasing
a home, and kept things on track. I would welcome the opportunity to
be a reference for you. Sincerely, Bill Dacko, Senior Vice President

Stoffer RE/MAX 200 Realty Winter Park, FL Dear Irene,
As a single mother of 3 selling your home can be very overwhelming as well as
scary. RE/MAX made it simple, easy and fast. I totally understood everything that
was happening and I miraculously sold my home in 20 days. Thanks RE/MAX
