I'm Michele Brutus, a Florida REALTOR® helping first-time home buyers, buyers, and sellers across Central Florida — with a clear plan, honest advice, and every detail handled from the first showing to closing day.
Every move is different. I tailor the plan to where you are, explain each step in plain language, and stay on top of the details so nothing slips.
From your first question to your first set of keys: budgeting, down payment assistance options, and every step explained before you take it.

We talk through your goals, budget, timeline, and must-haves. First-time buyer? I walk you through the whole road map before you take a single step.
I connect you with trusted local lenders and point you to down payment assistance worth asking about — so you shop with a real number and a stronger offer.
Curated listings, private tours, and straight talk on every home — the good, the not-so-good, and what it means when it's time to resell.
I write a competitive offer, negotiate price and repairs, and track every deadline through inspection and appraisal so your deposit stays protected.
Final walkthrough, closing table, keys in hand. I stay on every detail so closing day feels like a celebration, not a scramble.
A walkthrough of your home and a market analysis of recent nearby sales, so we price to draw buyers in and protect your bottom line.
Simple, high-impact prep — the repairs worth doing, decluttering, and staging tips so your home photographs and shows at its best.
Listing photos, MLS exposure, social media promotion, and showings scheduled around your life — so the right buyers find your home fast.
I walk you through every offer — price, terms, and how strong the buyer's financing is — and negotiate inspections and repairs so the deal holds together.
Title, paperwork, and deadlines handled through closing day — so you can focus on whatever comes next.
You'll never wonder what the next step is.
I'm Michele Brutus — you may know me as "Chele" — a Florida REALTOR® serving Orlando and the communities around it. I work with first-time home buyers, buyers moving up or relocating, and homeowners ready to sell.
First-time buyers hold a special place in my business. Buying your first home can feel like a maze, so my job is to turn it into a clear plan: what you can afford, what to ask your lender, which neighborhoods fit, and what happens at every step until the keys are in your hand. Selling? You get the same attention to detail — honest pricing, a strong launch, and steady negotiating all the way to closing.
From downtown Orlando to the lakes of Kissimmee and St. Cloud, the brick streets of Winter Park, and the hills of Clermont — local know-how right where you're looking.
Slide the numbers to fit your plans — principal, interest, taxes, insurance, PMI, and HOA update instantly.
Estimates only. PMI is estimated at 0.5% of the loan amount per year when the down payment is under 20%. Actual taxes, insurance, and rates vary by home and lender — your lender confirms the exact numbers, and I'm happy to connect you with one.
In one short call, we'll look at your budget, your down payment options, and the neighborhoods that fit — and you'll leave with a plan, not a sales pitch.
Introduce us — I'll treat them like family and keep you in the loop.
Call, text, email, or answer the first question — I'll get back to you personally.
Pick one — I'll tailor our call to your goal.
