Ms. Chelsea has my highest recommendation if you need a realtor. Her ability to remain positive, professional, and proactive out measure those in the field. She provided much needed feedback, with rapid response times and additional resources when needed. I was able to trust that my property was well cared for and looked after while I was out of state. Thank you Ms. Chelsea for all that you did to help sell my home. I am truly grateful and blessed to have found you.

Chelsea was amazing to work with from start to finish. She communicated clearly throughout the entire process and went to battle for us whenever it was needed. She was always available, answered every question quickly, and made the whole experience smooth and stress‑free. Her local referrals were incredibly helpful as we settled into our vacation home. We highly recommend Chelsea to anyone looking for a new home. She was fantastic!

Chelsea has been an absolute gift. She is on top of everything—from the beginning until the end of the transaction. She works so hard for her clients. She is responsive, professional, kind, and goes above and beyond what we expected in a realtor. Thank you, Chelsea, for being the best agent we could have found.

Chelsea is so wonderful to work with. As a builder rep, she is so responsive, organized, and partnering with her to match buyers with their Homes is always a pleasure. Her level of professionalism and care for her buyers and the way that she interacts with her peers in the industry sets her apart! Working with her as a breath of fresh air, and I’m always grateful when I see her name coming in to show our homes at Sunlife Homes! If you’re looking for a top notch, professional, realtor with integrity, knowledge and heart definitely choose Chelsea for your journey in finding your home in Southwest Florida!

As someone purchasing from the UK, finding the right investment property in Florida felt like it could be overwhelming, but Chelsea has made the entire process exciting and seamless. She’s been amazing at scheduling viewings around the times I’m in Florida and is always available whenever we have questions!
Everything she does is with love, care, positivity, and genuine excitement for my partner and I. We truly feel she wants the very best for us and our investment, and that gives us so much confidence moving forward. We’re incredibly grateful to have her guiding us through this journey and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.
Thank you Chelsea! 💕

I highly recommend Chelsea DeFina. She pays close attention to detail and is extremely helpful when it comes to buying properties.
She is assisting my partner and I with our next home buy project. Chelsea has been excellent in executing our search for commercial opportunities and making sure the properties are zoned for our specific needs.

I originally met with other Chelsea early 2025 about listing my home. After choosing another agent and having my house on the market for over 6 months, I decided to give her a chance and I immediately regretted wasting my time for 6 months. Chelsea not only sold my home in 30 days, but she was extremely attentive and helpful and went above and beyond in multiple occasions. She walked me through a very stressful time and process with kindness and empathy. She is very professional and communicative. If you’re looking for a highly involved, motivated and committed agent, look no further. Chelsea will not disappoint!

Anyone looking to sell or buy residential real estate anywhere in SW FL needs to call Chelsea DeFina.
After decades as both a Realtor and investor in the Northeast (NY and NJ), we decided to try Florida, and Chelsea recently guided us through our first investment property purchase in Naples. She is invaluable, especially since we are 1,200 miles away. She is professional, trustworthy, incredibly knowledgeable, meticulous, detailed and energetic. She easily navigates the idiosyncrasies of Florida real estate. We asked her thousands of questions, she always had the answer, she never had to 'get back to' us. Need a plumber, electrician, pool cleaner? Done.
Chelsea seamlessly transitioned rental booking from the previous owner, and she will manage our property going forward.
I could not imagine working with anyone else to sell, buy or manage our Florida properties.
Do yourself a favor, and call Chelsea DeFina!

I highly recommend Chelsea for your real estate needs. She helped me find a renter for my property in less than a month. Chelsea is proactive and does not wait for opportunities to come to her. She actively markets listings through her social media. She is also funny and easy to work with, which made the whole process enjoyable. I actually found her on TikTok, and her approach stood out immediately. She was exactly the type of realtor I was looking for, someone who takes initiative and knows how to attract renters rather than waiting for them to show up. I will definitely use her again in the future.

Thank you so much, Chelsea DeFina , for your amazing and extraordinary work as a real estate agent. As soon as we saw you on social media, we found you extremely effective in your marketing. But it was by doing business directly with you to sell our own house that our expectations were more than met. This is just the beginning of a great collaboration for the buying and selling of our future properties. 😘 When I have people in my circle who are looking for the best real estate agent on the West coast of Florida, I know with confidence that I can refer them to you, because you are the best. ❤️❤️❤️

Chelsea is by far the best pick for an excellent real estate agent in the Cape Coral area in Florida!
Scott Ellefson
Chelsea DeFina is a go getter! She is easily the most involved realtor we've ever worked with. From scheduling showings to getting in touch with local contractors for multiple estimates. Our sellers were extremely unreasonable and unwilling to bend in any way. Chelsea stuck with it and got us a price we felt very comfortable with. We have already referred her to our family and friends. We will absolutely be using Chelsea for all future purchases. We can't thank you enough Chelsea for helping us find our true slice of paradise!
Victoria Boyd
Chelsea DeFina stands out among real estate professionals. She not only supports buyers and sellers, but also goes above and beyond to place clients in both short- and long-term rentals. Her genuine care and commitment make even the most overwhelming real estate journey feel smooth and manageable.
Chelsea’s dedication to client satisfaction is evident in every step of the process. She brings excellent problem-solving skills to the table—especially when unexpected issues arise during home inspections. I’ve personally seen her on-site during septic and termite inspections, making sure her clients get the answers they need, whether she’s representing a buyer or a seller.
Follow Chelsea on social media to see just how dedicated and knowledgeable she is—you’ll quickly understand why so many clients trust her with their biggest moves.

Chelsea went above and beyond finding us our dream home in Cape Coral, Florida. Closing was fast and smooth, she knew the perfect area, and was able to check all the boxes as far as all the must haves. Thank you Chelsea, look foward to working with you in the future!

I had the best experience working with this company Chelsea was so easy and accommodated me in every way possible. I’m truly very thankful for them!
Gloria Cirulli
Chelsea DeFina is a dynamic Realtor. She took the time to get to know my needs and wants...as well as must haves. She is selective in the properties she showed me taking into consideration what I was looking for. She is knowledgeable about what the market is offering. Chelsea is personable and responsive. She was always willing to answer my questions and provide all the information needed. She pays high attention to detail which helped the entire process go smoothly. I highly recommend Chelsea DeFina as it is evident how much she cares about providing an above & beyond, top-notch experience when working with her.

I had realtors trying to sell from outside the area to no avail. I then tried to sell by myself dropping the price several times. Again, no dice. Chelsea engaged me after I delisted with the other realtors and I wish I would have taken her advice and services at that time. She REALLY knows the market and is extremely organized. I highly recommend her for any real estate transaction!
Tracy Gonzalez
I’d watched Chelsea lead and motivate in so many ways over the years - she seemed like such a self starter and so brave! In November of 2024, I hired her to help me with my health and wellness after seeing a post about her daily routines and seeing the changes in her body. I thought I was just getting a list of supplements, but then she offered a meal plan and workouts for a really affordable cost - so I took the chance! I had no idea I would be brought into a world created by Chelsea that focused on overall wellness and not just calorie counting! I, myself, am a “certified nutrition coach” and was so focused on every bite that went into my mouth, I’d forgotten there was an entire woman around that mouth! And that realization and change in mind frame, I owe to her! Not only did she help me jump on a journey to a whole body better me, but she also surrounds herself with a group of women who believe the same thing, and she shared those women with me.:: with trust and honesty and realness!
While I could go on about Chelsea’s entrepreneurial skills, energy, positivity, and motivating personality… what I cherish most is that she’s right there with you through everything. Even when wearing any and all of her hats, she can still sit down and give you whatever you need, when you need it. This reach goes beyond just health and wellness but also extends into all areas she practices.
You can’t go wrong with her!
Stephanie Sherman
Chelsea was incredibly knowledgeable about the market and took the time to understand my needs and preferences. She was always available to answer questions and provide expert advice, guiding me through each step with patience and professionalism.
Nadine Cedro
Chelsea is definitely someone you want in your corner representing you! She is relentless, responsive and goes above and beyond for her customers. She takes the time to answer questions and go over all the details to make sure you feel comfortable and know you are getting the best price. She is trustworthy and transparent and provides great customer service. I highly recommend her for your buying or selling needs.

Chelsea personally helped our family find the perfect home for our first year down here in Southwest Florida. She went above and beyond any realtor I have ever used in my 33 years of life and she really understood on a personal level the reality of which the world we live in. You won’t be disappointed Chelsea is a dream to work with and as we grow as a family, and business we will use her till she tells us no!

Chelsea is a super hardworking person; she will stop at nothing to be successful, no matter what the task!
