Maria Kaftanovskaya

Maria has lived in the Orlando area since 2004. She came to the US on a student visa program from Russia. Her international background taught her the importance of help and advice, honesty and trust, hard work and patience. Maria earned her BA in Economics with a Minor in Business Administration from Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida. She has a background in sales, finance, accounting, and entrepreneurship. Mother of two, she started two businesses while growing her family. Being a full-time Realtor, she helped her husband to open a wireless shop. She spends most of her free time with family, helping her husband at the shop, baking, or caring for her pets and plants. ‘I love working in Real Estate because it is a meaningful, fulfilling, and rewarding career. I enjoy face-to-face interactions at work and being able to touch the lives of so many people through my real estate service. It is a huge responsibility. The biggest reward is the understanding that I was able to help, and my help was instrumental in changing someone's life for the better.’
