Leslie Hanson Rotarius of Catherine Hanson Realty, Truly an outstanding real estate professional. I have worked with more than a few real estate agents over the years, so I believe in giving credit were credit is due. Leslie recently sold a home for me in Mt. Plymouth Fl. in the time frame I was wanting to sell in, which was important to me. She was most helpful in planing the sale, offered good solid advice in preparing the home prior to listing. Once listed she went to work right a way with a professional photographer and advertising. She was able to recommend a carpet installer who did quality work at a reasonable price. She is very knowledgeable, honest and hard working in her work ethic. Thru showings and home inspections she watched over my home as though it was her own and made the whole sales process run very smooth all the way thru closing. A real and down to earth person with good ideas and great to work with. I highly recommend her as a real estate professional and I look forward to working with her on other real estate transactions in the future. B.J. Simons , Retired Contractor read more

If you're moving to or relocating anywhere within the central Florida (Leesburg--Tavares--Mt Dora--Eustis--Sorrento--and beyond) area, you owe it to yourself to give Leslie Rotarius of Catherine Hanson Real Estate, Inc., the opportunity to assist you in finding the PERFECT HOME for YOU!! That's exactly what she did for us!! She listens attentively to what you "say" that you want, observes your "likes and dislikes" as she shows you properties you indicate an interest in, makes her own assessment of what those "likes and dislikes" really mean in comparison to "your stated desires" and helps guide you to the choice of properties that truly reflect your wants--needs--desires, all without over-stressing your budget. With a friendly, calm, and nonjudgmental demeanor, she will expertly guide you to finding that PERFECT HOME, the one you truly want and can afford, even if you didn't realize just how important those "little touches" were to you when you started searching. My only regret, as I write this review is that I can only give Leslie 5 stars--when she deserves 10 for all the help she provided us. read more

We recently worked with Kellie Powell at Catherine Hanson. We have worked with Kellie for about a year during a relocation from Southwest Florida to Central Florida. Kellie was absolutely amazing during the entire process. We needed a rental when we moved to the area and Kellie was instrumental in helping us find the perfect rental as we were trying to find our new home/location. Her knowledge of the area was extremely helpful in narrowing down a suitable location for our family's needs. She was always willing to help in any way she could including providing insight into questions we had not thought to ask ourselves. Once we found the perfect home Kellie was always on top of every detail to make sure every part of the offer and closing process went as smoothly as possible. Kellie is a genuinely wonderful person and real estate agent who truly cares about you and your family. We highly recommend Kellie Powell for anyone in need of real estate services. read more

Dear prospective clients, We recently sold our house in Grand Island Florida through Leslie Rotarious at Catherine Hanson Real Estate, Inc. During the process of listing, selling and closing on our home Leslie made our experience not only informative but a joy. Leslie was in constant contact through the entire process and kept us informed on terms, conditions and information we were not aware of, having never sold a home before. Leslie was available via phone 24/7 and she sold our house within a week on the market. She also volunteered to sit with a repair man at our home when we could not attend that particular appointment, going above and beyond for this situation. She was professional, courteous and understood the sense of urgency in selling our home. Leslie made our home selling process such an easy and effortless event. We would recommend Leslie to any home buyer or seller and will be using Leslie again in the future. Sincerely, Adam & Shannon read more

Buying a home can be one of the most stressful situations. There are so many unknowns and many other pieces and parts that without a realtor who is knowledgeable, patient and uses their skills to ADVOCATE for their clients, can make it a really miserable experience. I'm not a realtor, nor did we know much about the different processes. We needed someone we could trust to guide us through the experience. Leslie did a phenomenal job. She not only made us feel comfortable, she made sure we never felt rushed or pressured. We knew exactly what was going on at all times. She remained professional, diligent and always made herself available for any questions we had. We are so very grateful for such a smooth transition between homes. I would highly recommend Leslie to anyone looking to buy/sell a home. You will not be disappointed!! -Nicole & JD King read more

I called the offices of Catherine Hanson Real Estate with interest in a home they had listed. A young woman (Kellie Powell) answered and she was able to answer all of my questions. Kellie and I "clicked" and she joined me, as my realtor, in my search for a new home. Over the following few months Kellie and I viewed many possible new homes. Never "pushy" but always there for me she kept me informed, provided quick answers to my questions, and patiently worked with me to meet my needs. Kellie helped me through the entire home buying process with her confidence, patience and knowledge. I found my new home and I can truly say Kellie went above and beyond to help me. Thank you Kellie and Catherine Hanson Real Estate!! I highly recommend this agency and Kellie to help all of you find your next home! read more

Jill Moorman is not only an amazing realtor but an extraordinary person. We have built and sold many homes prior to our arrival to Florida. We have worked with several realtors in the past when selling our homes and purchasing land for my next residence. Jill is beyond the best realtor that I have ever worked with when dealing with a sell of a home. Jill is passionate about her career and truly wants the best for her clients. Jill was professional, courteous, and real when dealing with us during the entire process of the sell. Jill was on point and readily available to answer any questions that we had during this transaction. I would highly recommend Jill Moorman to anyone that wants to buy or sell a home in the surrounding areas. Greg read more

Tasha Rotarius was the buyer's agent handling the sale of my home. As the Seller, I did not have representation, however, Tasha did such a great job representing her client (buyer), and, it was through her dedication, humility, open communication, organizational skills, and keeping me informed as the Seller, that never once was I concerned about not being represented. She has restored my faith in what a "realtor" should be and code of ethics. She is SPECIAL and I highly recommend Tasha as a Seller and/or Buyer's Agent. You will be pleased with her and her conduct. I have the utmost respect for what she does and how she handles herself as a professional. She earned 5 out of 5 stars :) Thank you Tasha read more

Catherine Hanson Real Estate exceeded all of my expectations. Leslie came to our first meeting enthusiastic and well prepared, and every interaction I had with her after that was the same. She proposed an efficient sale process, arranged for the staging and photographs, gave me good and thoughtfully critical advice on finishing the house. The sale went very well-she brought in multiple offers within the first week. You will not find a more professional hard working broker then Leslie. Can't wait to work with her again. read more
