With a reputation for strategic insight, elevated marketing, and deeply human client care, Estela helps homeowners sell with clarity, confidence, and results.
Her expertise centers on distinctive properties: waterfront and canal-front homes, golf-course residences, luxury new construction, and lifestyle-driven communities where location and architecture tell a compelling story. She combines intentional pricing strategy, premium marketing, and skilled negotiation to attract qualified buyers while protecting her clients' equity and goals.

Her academic background in psychology, business administration, and journalism informs a multidisciplinary approach rooted in human behavior, strategic communication, and decisive action. Before relocating to the United States in 2018, she served as CEO of Century 21 Albania and founded Elite Properties in Tirana, experience that gives her a rare fluency in navigating complex, high-stakes transactions across cultures.
Originally from Europe and fluent in multiple languages, Estela serves a diverse local and international clientele across the Greater Tampa Bay and Sarasota regions.
Beyond her real estate practice, Estela is committed to her community. She volunteers with Big Brothers Big Sisters, mentoring youth and investing in the next generation. She is also an active member of Tampa Women for Good, a collective dedicated to meaningful philanthropic impact across the Tampa Bay area. She serves as Vice President of Education for her local Toastmasters chapter and appears regularly as a real estate expert on Albanian television.
Clients choose Estela for her calm presence, transparent guidance, and unwavering advocacy. She understands that selling a home is both a financial decision and an emotional milestone — and her mission is to make that journey seamless, strategic, and deeply supported.
