Business Philosophy
Establish trust through integrity and professionalism, and commitment; know your market; keep learning; be enthusiastic; maintain a positive attitude; be persistent but never pushy; be effective, creative, and intuitive -- with the ability for innovative solutions to any complications that arise.
When working with Buyers: Listen patiently and, then, listen again. Closely identify the needs of buyers so that those needs transfer to results. Evaluate and analyze properties to maximize their potential. With comparative market analysis and local market trends the buyers have a realistic price for each property. Negotiate aggressively using skills, experience and intuitiveness to produce the lowest price for her buyers without losing the deal. Guide clients through: property inspections, mortgage procurements, and contingencies negotiation until a transaction has been closed successfully.
When working with Sellers: Analyze the property and with comparative market analysis arrive to a price that is effective to set the best potential sale of the property. Develop a staging plan including cost effective improvements to enhance the value and salability of the home. Strategically arrive at a comprehensive marketing plan to position the property where the prospective buyers are located. Negotiate aggressively to bring the highest price to the sellers. With diligence be there at every step to secure a successful transaction.
Works closely with buyers and sellers, architects and contractors, mortgage companies, inspection companies, and attorneys to produce effective and timely results.

Personal Background
Born in Greece, near the Ionian Sea, minutes away from the birthplace of the Olympic games. Immigrated to the US in 1968. Since 1970 Mimika lives with her husband in an updated Dutch Colonial home overlooking Long Island Sound, in the Shippan area of Stamford CT. Her husband Michael is president of Michael Blanc Architects and Associates, Stamford, CT. Their two boys, Christopher and Adrien have finished college, are on their own, and live nearby; visits with Mom and Dad, therefore, happen often. Family and friends are very-very important and good food is always the backdrop of frequent gatherings!
Both Mimika and Michael were born in Europe (Michael in Switzerland) have kept close ties with family and friends overseas. Traveling is one of their pastimes, and have spent numerous vacations in countries across the Atlantic, as well as, South America. Here at home, if the weather is good and their schedule permits, you will find them on their boat exploring the beaches and islands of Long Island Sound, or capturing the serenity of the water with a camera; of course the cell phones are always on, just in case….
