 Mira’s professional mission
I believe in exceptional service. I truly do!!! Honesty, integrity, loyalty, and high standards of professionalism and service are at the heart of my business. I respect my clients, I care for them, and I listen to them. I educate them by providing honest real estate advice about buying and selling real estate in Edmonton, including explaning the whole process, and giving real estate tips, up to date market statistics, strategies, and real estate news. This allows my clients to make a knowledgeable decision.
I continually explore new ideas and technology, and raise my professional standards to make the selling and buying of real estate easier, and more enjoyable to my valued clients. I work to make a difference in those lives I touch and which touch mine. Many of my clients have become friends and I can think of no greater compliment or reward. I love my job, I absolutely love that look in my clients' eyes when they find their dream home. And I love that sense of accomplishment I get when I convert non-believers into loyal clients, seeing value in my services and trusting the advice I provide.
 Who is Mira?
It all started in the mid '70s. Strongly influenced by my parents, I would sit in my elementary school classroom pretending to listen to the teacher emphasizing our fortune of being born in communism “the most developed system in the world,” while day dreaming about living anywhere else... After finishing high school I left Czechoslovakia and gained my University degree in Budapest, Hungary, which was known for a softer version of the communistic system. While studying Hungarian for one year (it is always beneficial to understand the language spoken at school you are planning to attend, isn’t it?), I met the most important person in my life! He is my love and my best friend, and truly I am the luckiest girl in the world to have him witness and support my life for more than 30 years. Since he did not have a communistic background, we had to wait for 10 years - till the velvet revolution (the best experience of my life) in 1989, to finally get married.
 With a Horticultural Engineering degree in hand, we moved back to Slovakia, where our 2 children were born. We enthusiastically started our own business while continuosly dreaming about living somewhere else. Two crazy and stressful years later, we finally got our landed immigrant visa to Canada-the nicest piece of paper one can hold in their hand. I proudly landed in Vancouver with a husband, 2 kids, and 4 suitcases. We knew no one, didn’t understand the language, and only had planned accommodation for 2 nights. Canada became our home very quickly and we never looked back. Shortly after settling down in our new city, I became a real estate agent.
After five years in Vancouver we moved to Edmonton. Every year in February/March I seriously think I must have lost my mind when chose to move to this city, but with the snow melting and first patches of green grass, my heart jumps from joy and I, yet again, love everything this city has to offer. The people are what makes this place amazing, and I am so proud to call many of them my friends. God, if only winter was shorter !!!
 I love garage sales. I refinish, reupholster any piece of furniture and turn the ugliest garage sale finds into cute accessories. I love ballroom dancing - I am dreaming about loosing weight and dancing again. I love sipping coffee and just talking with my husband and I love having one on one, deep talks with my children. They make my life purposeful. For them, I wake up every morning and want to become a better person, just to show them that everything is possible when you put your mind to it. And I absolutely dislike exercising. I obviously never put my mind to it...
My favorite things to do: I am very creative, so anything requiring creativity is for me. I have been involved in interior design and staging for many years. It brings me so much joy to see my client's property transforming to a sale-able product, leaving them with more money in their pocket, and making their move to the next chapter in their life much easier.
