    Person You'll Ever Meet                       

I am so glad you're here!

I'm Yuri Almonte, the dog obsessed, latte addicted Orlando REALTOR®. You'll typically find me at a dog friendly coffee shop enjoying my sugar free vanilla latte giving my clients the scoop on Real Estate.

If I am not at a local coffee shop, you'll find hubby and I at a local nursery fueling our plant obsession! Of course Oakley gets to come along for the ride. We take him everywhere!

In fact, just a decade ago you could have found me sitting at a cubicle pushing through admin duties. I was working in higher education as an administrative assistant to the Campus Director of a University. I also got into Law School, keep reading for the scoop.

It was when the Campus Dean asked me the following question that changed the trajectory of my life...

I didn't always have this business, the clients, the courses, the multi-million dollar sales...

At first, I looked at her crazy, but she saw the potential in my teaching ability. I was teaching all the University orientation classes at the time.

Now after thirteen years in the HR Training and Development realm, I decided to turn my passion for teaching into my Real Estate business.

Want to know what excites me the most each day? Putting all I know about Real Estate into simple, easy to use, resource guides. I don't think you understand the endorphins I get when I get to flex my creative muscles to build Real Estate how-to's. Educating my clients on the Real Estate process is always my first priority.

FUN FACT: I actually got accepted into Law School and instead went a different path. I had to work full-time to afford my insulin and law school requires you to attend full time. So I decided to work instead and ultimately found my passion to teach!

Ok, not so much a name I go by, but it kinda is. My clients know me for BFF approach. Where working with me feels a lot more like having a cup of Joe with a friend, than being sold to.

Andrew always calls me "babe", but there are times I may be "little spoon" or as he likes to say "I am the nicest person he's ever met". Not really a nickname, but I'll take it!

A few things i love...

80's and 90's R&B and pop music are always on my Spotify playlist. If you're a fan of Whitney Houston, Boyz II Men, Eurythmics or Madonna, you might as well call us friends!

My husband Andrew is my ying to my yang and has been for the past 11 years! After a busy day, you will find us drinking our favorite Pinot Noir as we watch
Married at First Sight, ha-ha!
It's our thing!

I literally have an obsession with Sugar Free Vanilla Latte's! You will always find me out and about trying out new local coffee shops in the area. Currently my favorite are: Foxtail Coffee, The Robinson Coffee Room and Craft & Common.

Can you also say PLANT MOM! Andrew and I are always at the local nursery fueling our plant obsession. We're always looking to add to our plant collection both indoors and in our yard!

Say HELLO to our Toy Poodle, Oakley, the little dog we call our child *shrugs*!

Oakley is 3 years old and has his own personality.  It was during Andrew's busy tax season in April that I thought it would be a good idea to get a dog to help Andrew through his tax season.

Let's be honest, I also wanted to welcome a dog into our new home we just purchased. I mean that's what you do right? Get a new home and also get a dog while you're at it!

Let me tell you that Andrew is obsessed with Oakley. At first he said, “let's wait until after tax season”, but now, Oakley is what brings him joy during the tough tax season times. It's crazy how much joy a pet can bring into your life!
