"I would easily be happy to refer Elena to anyone looking for assistance in the real estate market. We never met, and we handled everything by some phone, but email primarily. It could not have been more simple. She responded immediately and thoroughly to my every thought or concern. She didn't tell me a property was wonderful just to close a deal... like some brokers. She gave me pros and cons on every property, and did not "sugar coat" anything. I came to trust her judgment completely and hope to work with her again in the future." Sara Stockdale, 05/09/2011
"My wife and I used Ms. Glatko in order to purchase a condominium in Palm Beach Gardens [The Landmark], Florida. We were absolutely taken aback by the sheer level of professionalism that Ms. Glatko demonstrated in dealing with our mortgage broker, our insurance broker, and the sellers' broker.
We cannot speak highly enough about Ms. Glatko and if anyone is in the market for a truly fine broker, it is our belief and our contention that they can do no better than using her to find/sell their home.
Sincerely," Ronald and Esther Davis, 6/12/11

"Hi Elena,
Thank you very much for the successful completion of the closing process. I and Rena are really appreciated what you have done for us, without which we simply can not get our dream home. From many telephone conversations and email exchanges, we strongly feel that you are not just an easily accessible, hard working person, but also a very nice individual. Your professional knowledge and full devotion for customers make you an excellent realtor. We will recommend you to every person we know with complete confidence.
Again, thank you very much for the help." Rena zhao and Bill Li
"Good morning, Elena! I hope you are having a wonderful day and the real estate business is taking care of you as well as you took care of my purchase! Please know that you were such a HUGE help throughout my purchase and you kicked and fought for me to get things the way they should be. It was a pleasure working with you from beginning to end and I will certainly recommend friends and family to use your services if they are ever in the house buying business. Thanks again for all you have done to help get me into my home and make life much more enjoyable. Have a wonderful day and hope to see you soon." David Longhitano 4/27/11
"Good morning Elena.
Thank you very much for making us feel as if you were buying Unit with us. In my 22 years of practice as a real estate lawyer in Ontario, I have never had the pleasure of working with anyone so well-informed and dedicated to her profession. I am so happy that Angie discovered you!
We look forward to seeing you soon!" Michael Carli, 6/25/11
"I really did want to take a moment to tell you that you are exceptional at what you do. As we live overseas we rely so heavily on good information and timely responses. There were so many times we sent off an email to you at midnight, on a Sunday, or a holiday, just because we had the time then to sit down and get our thoughts organized. We didn't expect, nor did we always want you to disturb your private time, but there you were! Replies... and not only to some of the questions asked but to all. That is a lost art in the world of emails, getting replies to all the questions asked and not just some.
Your willingness to meet our needs and your giving personal opinions when asked (& only when asked) was so professional and so helpful in us making our best decisions.
We are very happy with the condos you helped us find. We wish you continued success, which it is inevitable will happen!
Yours," Audrey & Greg Bergee, 07/11/2011
"We would like to express how Elena Glatko was so helpful in our search for condos in the West Palm Beach area.
We "accidentally" met her on line (we live in Charleston, SC) and starting communicating with her regarding our "wish list". We then decided to make a quick trip down to WPB to research what she had found for us. She took us on a whirlwind tour that we could not have done without her. We were most appreciative. As we must first sell our home in SC, before we commit to a purchase, we did not actually purchase anything. But, now we know where we would prefer when the time comes, and we will certainly stay in touch with Elena.
She is a top notch agent, and we hope she will assist us with buying a property in the not too distant future!
Sincerely,
" Barbara Bloch & Robert Miller, 2011
"You are amazing! I mean that very truthfully from my heart. I have never ever ever had a real estate agent that follows up like you do when you say that you are going to do something. Elena, you will be very successful within your industry because of your diligence, honesty, thoroughness, tenacity and creed to do what you say you will do. There are very few individuals in our society let alone real estate agents that do this. Many should follow your lead and offer great customer service as you provide. " Karen Knaub, 2010
"Dear Mr. Freidus and Mr. Schafer,
I am writing you in regards to one of your highly competent agents, Elena Glatko, a West Palm Beach Condo Specialist, of the Boca Executive Realty group. It is with overwhelming confidence in her abilities that I extend this recommendation.
My wife, Erinn, and I have been traveling to the Palm Beach area for over 10 years, and with each visit have considered purchasing a vacation property in the area. Upon meeting Elena, that dream became a reality! We will close on the property on Ocean Blvd in Palm Beach, on Thursday.
As you know, there are hundreds of agents to choose from in the Palm Beach area, and we have been turned off by many. Elena was way ahead of the other agents with prompt response, organization, and follow-up from the very beginning.
Although Elena does not specialize in the South Ocean Blvd condos in Palm Beach, you would never know it! Her research regarding condo buildings, efficiency, and dedication to our needs, coupled with her respectfulness and demeanor while working with Seller's-Agents, enabled us to negotiate a successful offer with ease.
Elena is most certainly a rising star in this industry. Her very objective, confident and professional manner, along with her accessibility/attention to detail, definitely set her apart. From the offer to closing documents, Elena kept us on track and did not miss a beat.
We have purchased this condo as a vacation property and will be upgrading in a few years. We will most certainly be contacting Elena as our Selling Agent, as well as our Buying Agent for all future properties.
Thank you for recognizing Elena for her excellent representation of Boca Executive Realty.
We wish her many challenges, opportunities, and unlimited success!" John M. Starcher, Jr., Esq, 2010
"Hi Zev,
My husband and I are recent customers of Elena Glatko. "Wow" is an understatement when describing our experience with her! My husband and I had listed our rental property on both Craigslist.com and fastrental.com for many, many weeks prior to meeting Elena. Despite some "snazzy" photos and descriptions of amenities of our property, our internet listing efforts produced little to no results, so I sought out a recommendation for a Realtor. Someone in our building recommended that I call Elena Glatko, but they didn't have her phone number. I found Elena's contact information from your web site and called Elena. Elena was immediately responsive and eager to get to work for us. I met with her a couple days later and Elena made sure to get all the details of our tenant requirements and expectations. Within a week, (no kidding), Elena had found perfectly suited tenants for us. Elena also coordinated all of the tenant applications through our condo association, as well as administered all relevant paperwork. Her advice was also quite helpful.
Zev, I am very experienced in the credit and banking industry and have worked with some very skilled realtors over many years. I can honestly say that I do not believe that I've come across a real estate professional such as Elena who demonstrates such a good understanding of the 'big picture' along with a talent for massaging all the details in the "little picture". I'm sure you agree that Elena Glatko is a rare find. We are very satisfied with our experience with Elena Glatko and with Boca Executive Realty and wanted to share our "customer testimonial" with you. We will always seek Elena's assistance with our future real estate needs.
Thank you for your time,
" Lorie Givens, 2009
"My wife and I first met Elena of Boca Executive Realty in October of 2009. We were interested in purchasing investment property in the West Palm Beach downtown area. Elena spent the entire afternoon showing us many different condo apartments in WPB near Cityplace. Elena is extremely knowledgeable of the area. She is also very courteous and friendly. We have purchased a total of three properties with Elena. In fact, my brother-in-law in another country, on our recommendation, purchased two properties in the same downtown area with Elena as his agent as well. Elena also helped us secured tenants on all of our properties.
Since we are not Florida resident, quite often, we need to find local help in taking care of our properties. Elena stepped in and recommended good, reliable people to do the jobs for us. She is extremely thorough and kept us informed throughout all of our real estate transactions. When we can not be there in person, she would take all the necessary pictures of a prospective property for us and send us all the pertinent information.
Bottom line, Elena is great and we would highly recommend her to anyone interested in purchasing real estate property in the West Palm Beach area." Christopher Tung and Youbei Ma, March 4th, 2011
"Elena, I just had to thank you and Continental Properties so much for your help in getting us our dream condo! Hurricane Wilma really through us for a loop; the only thing that saved us was professionalism and dedication to your work. Honestly, you made this huge decision a piece of cake! From this point on, I will be referring all of my family, friends and anyone else I know that is need of a spectacular Realtor that gets the job done!
Sincerely," Corey & Maite Gray, 2005
"Elena,
I have not enough words to thank you for helping me this summer to find the right place for me in West Palm Beach. You are an excellent Real estate agent, and your patience and dedication is extraordinary. God bless you always.
Thank you again.
Love," Carmen Jordan, 2006
"My name is Jeff Tommasi and I recently moved to West Palm Beach. After looking at many places in the Palm Beach county area, we made a phone call inquiring about an apartment for lease at Park Place on Presidential way. We made an appointment with Elena Glatko who arrived promptly to show us what turned out to be the nicest place we had looked at up until that point. Elena performed her job in such a way that made the whole transaction a pleasure. She also has remained in contact with us to make sure that everything is ok and that we are satisfied. In my opinion, Elena has done more than she has actually had to do. I would gladly deal with her again.
Best wishes in your new venture." Jeff, 2006
"I work and live in Europe, on my last day of vacation in West Palm Beach I met with Elena, I fell in love with a condo she showed me. I was able to purchase this condo at the price I wanted. I thought it would be difficult being overseas during the transaction but it wasn't. Elena made the process quick and easy. Her attention to detail and her knowledge on real estate is stellar which made the whole transaction go smoothly. She went above and beyond to have the sellers meet me at the price I wanted. I really lucked out when I got her as my agent.
Thank you Elena." Tracy DeFeo, 2005
"Elena Glatko made the search for my new home a very happy event! I had called and emailed many Realtors and she was the only one that actually answered promptly, with specific ideas of where to take me, and was immediately on top of everything for our search. She did much pre-work and preparation and had everything ready to go as soon as I found a moment to look at possible properties. She treated me not just like a vip client, but as a friend, and it really made the whole experience easy, stress free, and actually fun.
I was very lucky she was the only one that actually gave the extra effort to accommodate me, I got a fabulous property, and an ever more fabulous friend at the end of the process. " Melissa Berendson, 2006
"Working with Elena is always a great experience. It is clear that she takes great pride in her work and she treats both her clients and everyone else involved in the transaction with the utmost professionalism and respect.
I always look forward to working on Elena's deals because I know that they will go smoothly and that the clients will walk away happy." Anna Warburton, 2006
"I had best experience dealing with Elena starting from emails that she returned immediately, phone calls that she followed up with no delays and closing deal on property. She spent 3 days from morning till evening showing properties with well prepared plan and database, always following my needs and opinion and still leaving me space to decide what would be better for me. I was out of state resident trying to find property right away in 3 days so she never let me down by not showing up or being late. All paperwork was handled properly and fast there were no surprises after closing. Keep up great job. Thank you for your help and I am very happy with my property at Abacoa. Good luck. " Eva de la Parra, 2007
"Elena Glatko is the most dedicated person i have ever met in the real estate business.
My husband & I were frustrated dealing with other realtors. Our friend referred us to Elena & she worked day & night to rent our condo in Delray.
Elena follows up immediately, has a remarkable way with people, gets the paper work done & accomplishes the job with ease. She is assertive without being aggressive. We enjoyed all of our interactions with her. Elena is a professional par excellence!!! As soon as we are ready to sell our property; there is no one I would seek out except Elena to work on our behalf...
" Sherry Zekowski, 2006
"Elena Glatko is an extraordinarily effective Realtor. When my husband, Ron, and I told her we were interested in moving to a condo in West Palm, you took us on a tour of options that might meet our needs. We communicated our price range and criteria and--as she got to know us--she decided to show us Cityplace South Tower. I am writing this testimonial at my South Tower desk which has a magnificent Eastern view of the inter coastal and ocean. Elena found us the perfect place and we couldn't be happier.
What most distinguishes Elena from other Realtors is her responsiveness. She literally responded to every communication from me within minutes of transmission. When it came time to cut the deal, she was out of the country. Despite her long-distance, she supported me through the process and made sure that all parties kept the ends of the bargain. Elena has an infectious enthusiasm for your clients and their needs. She is a one-of-a-kind human being and a one-of-a-kind Realtor and I heartily encourage you to hire her as your agent.
" Catherine Klinger, 2011
"Hi Elena!
THANK YOU for everything! You were the absolute best ever to work with. I would be happy to recommend you, anytime! You are a Rock Star!" Ross Lanzafame
"Elena,
I cannot thank you enough for all your help and hard work in making my dream of a home in palm beaches become a reality. Over the course of my several months long search, I meet many, many Realtors. Not one of them was anywhere near as diligent, professional, thorough and attentive as you. At every instance, you made me feel like I was your most important client, going out of your way to get questions answered and to identify properties of interest. Your knowledge of the area, and your candid assessment of each property and each building, was invaluable, because I was house-hunting long distance with limited knowledge of the area. It quickly became clear to me that i could count on your expertise at every step of the transaction - from contract negotiation, to inspection, to financing options, to insurance, to closing and beyond. You are an outstanding Realtor. I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a property in the area. Thank you again !
I love my new home
" ROSS P. LANZAFAME, ESQ., 2011
"My wife and I wanted to relay a pleasant experience involving an excellent real estate agent. We were in need of real estate services when we contacted Elena Glatko. From the moment we contacted her, she did not hesitate to get right to work. She was with us through the entire transaction. We found her to be prompt, professional and efficient. We will be sure to contact Ms. Glatko when we are in need of real estate services in the future.
We highly recommend this individual!
" Mel and Beth Mosier
"My husband had owned a real estate office in south Florida years ago, we were pretty familiar with the typical agent and the process. The reason we had decided to work with Elena Glatko is that she is anything but typical. Elena reminded my husband and I of what we considered to be the perfect combination. Elena is both professional and caring. When you are making a purchase of this magnitude, professional is important, but heart and compassion are just as valuable.
Thank you Elena, for making this entire process a pleasure!" Samuel and Natasha Younts
"Elena,
I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for all the time you spent with my daughter and myself looking for an apartment rental. The numerous phone calls between us were most informative and differently above and beyond what we expected.
Even though we settled on another apartment that you had not shown us, you were so thorough in guiding us as we signed the lease, and informed us of other pertinent details that were important to renting in Florida. Since this was the first time I had rented an apartment since my husband's passing, I felt a little "rusty". My prior background is that of a leasing agent for a huge complex in a large metropolitan area. Having the experience of once being in your 'shoes', I especially appreciated you kindness and diligence.
You made us feel as though we were important and that you cared about our well-being. For that we are grateful. We will recommend you to anyone looking for an apartment rental or to buy, and will certainly contact you in the future if we decide to purchase a condo in Florida.
January 2012" LB and daughter
"Simply, we are 100% pleased with you. 200% pleased would be more accurately telling the story! You helped us qualify our needs by asking pertinent questions, anticipating things we'd like, and listening carefully. Frankly, I wasn't expecting a lot from a resort-area real estate salesperson, especially since we were limited time. And honestly, I didn't want to tip my hat initially that we were genuinely buyers, because of 2 other sale contacts we had made. But you had things organized and exact, and made it a smart move for us. Your communication skills are excellent, and the prompt responses and exchanges were so good, they were surprising. Also, my wife felt very comfortable and open with you, which only served to make the whole experience great, without any compromise.
Best wishes to you, going forward." Jim and Lynn Cucinelli
