The KL Team

Raised in South Florida, Maxime attended North Broward Preparatory School before earning her degree in Communications from Rollins College. She entered real estate full time after graduation and has since built extensive experience representing buyers, sellers, and investors throughout South Florida’s luxury residential market.

Maxime has developed a particular specialty in sourcing, acquiring, renovating, and repositioning residential properties for resale. Her involvement extends far beyond simply finding a property. She understands the entire lifecycle of an investment, from identifying an opportunity and evaluating its upside to capital raising, budgeting, design, material selection, renovation decisions, and ultimately positioning the finished property for resale.

One of Maxime’s defining strengths is recognizing when the sum can be greater than the whole.

She has an instinct for seeing potential in properties others may overlook and understanding how the right combination of acquisition price, location, layout, design, renovation, materials, budgeting, and market timing can completely change the value of a property.

Maxime is equally comfortable with the financial and creative sides of a project. She can analyze whether the numbers make sense while simultaneously envisioning what the finished home should become.

Her involvement in renovation projects is highly hands on. She works through design concepts, layouts, finishes, surfaces, fixtures, materials, and the details that ultimately determine how a property feels to a buyer. She understands that successful renovation is not simply about spending more. It is about knowing where to spend, where to save, and which decisions will have the greatest impact on the final product and resale value.

Maxime also has extensive experience raising and assembling capital for select investment opportunities, giving her a perspective on real estate that goes well beyond traditional brokerage. She understands the relationship between acquisition cost, renovation budget, carrying costs, design decisions, market timing, and exit strategy.

Her ability to source both on market and off market opportunities, combined with strong negotiation skills and deep market relationships, has made her a valuable resource for investors and buyers seeking properties with hidden potential.

Maxime’s specialty is not simply finding the right property.

It is seeing what it can become, understanding what it will take to get there, and creating value where others may not have seen it.

Raised in South Florida, Shera attended North Broward Preparatory School before earning her undergraduate degree in Communications with a specialization in Advertising from Boston University. She later earned a Master of Science in Real Estate Development from New York University, giving her a sophisticated understanding of real estate that extends far beyond brokerage into development, investment, positioning, and value creation.

Shera built her early real estate experience in New York City, where she worked with Douglas Elliman and gained firsthand experience working with several real estate developers. Exposure to both brokerage and development gave her a multidimensional perspective on how properties are conceived, evaluated, positioned, marketed, and ultimately valued.

Her specialty lies in understanding the bigger picture behind a property.

Shera sees how architecture, location, land value, development potential, buyer psychology, branding, and lifestyle come together to influence both perception and value. Whether she is representing a luxury residence, development opportunity, investment property, or commercial asset, she is particularly skilled at identifying the story that will make an opportunity resonate with the right audience.

Her background in advertising is central to that approach. Shera believes exceptional properties should never be marketed generically. She brings a strong creative point of view to imagery, branding, presentation, messaging, digital strategy, and targeted outreach, developing an individual strategy around each property rather than relying on a one size fits all formula.

Her real estate development education also allows her to look beyond what exists today. She evaluates properties through the lens of potential, understanding how development, renovation, positioning, land use, and market dynamics may create opportunities that are not immediately obvious.

As a mother of three, Shera also brings a deeply personal understanding of what families are really evaluating when they choose a home. Schools, commute, activities, childcare, neighborhood feel, convenience, and the rhythms of everyday family life all matter just as much as bedrooms and square footage. That perspective allows her to guide families with an understanding that is both professional and genuinely lived.

Clients rely on Shera for her accessibility, candor, intuition, and extensive lifestyle network. She understands that the right real estate decision is often connected to a much larger picture, including family, schools, community, social life, design, convenience, and long term goals.

With a combination of analytical knowledge and creative instinct, Shera serves as both a real estate advisor and strategist. Her strength is not simply helping a client buy or sell a property, but understanding why the opportunity matters, how it should be positioned, and what potential may exist beyond what is immediately visible.
