Monica Stefanescu

I am a licensed Florida real estate agent and the founder of Florida Sunny Shores, a boutique real estate platform focused on relocation guidance and smart home buying across Tampa Bay and Florida’s Gulf Coast.

I am also the host of the 2 Agents & Sunshine Shift YouTube channel, where I share relocation insight, neighborhood micro-pockets, and real-world Florida living guidance.

I specialize in helping buyers relocating to Florida understand how different areas actually live — beyond maps, listings, and rankings. My work centers on street-level insight, neighborhood flow, insurance and inspection realities, and long-term livability, so clients can make confident decisions before committing.

My approach is calm, strategic, and education-driven. Rather than rushing transactions, I work closely with a limited number of clients to help them choose homes and neighborhoods that truly fit how they want to live.

With a background in IT systems and real-world real estate experience in Tampa Bay, I bring a strong analytical lens to buyer representation — balancing data, local insight, negotiation, and hands-on guidance throughout the process.

I am proud to be affiliated with Paramount Home Group | LPT Realty, while independently leading the Florida Sunny Shores brand and personally supporting each client through a relationship-first approach.
