One company —from offer to keys to renovation.
Most real estate is a relay race of strangers — agent, contractor, lender, insurer — none of whom answer to each other. Academia Real Estate Corp holds the brokerage and the construction licenses under one roof, so nothing that decides your outcome ever leaves the building.
Jose Urdaneta
Real Estate Broker and owner of Academia Real Estate Corp. Jose built the company around a simple conviction: in South Florida, the value of a home and the ability to sell it are inseparable from the physical condition of the building — so the brokerage should hold the tools to change it.
- OfferWe broker the dealA licensed brokerage represents you on the buy or the sell — the same as any agent, with the market read to back it up.
- KeysWe close it cleanlyWhen inspection, insurance, or a system flag threatens the deal, the fix doesn't leave the building. It's already in-house.
- RenovationWe build what it needsRoof, A/C, electrical, plumbing, kitchen, finishes — self-performed on one schedule, under one set of licenses.
Every license held in-house — so nothing leaves the building.
When a sale needs a new roof to close, a kitchen to lift the price, or a wind-mitigation upgrade to stay insurable, it stays under one licensed roof.
