About
Meet Lourdes and Pete
I have lived on Tortoise Island for more than 20 years. Real estate here is not a job I do from a distance. It is my neighborhood. My husband Pete is a full partner in this business, a co-agent and branch manager who works every transaction alongside me. Together we have sold more than 350 homes and guided clients through relocations, waterfront purchases, and downsizing moves across the Space Coast.

What Clients Say
I am so pleased we chose to use Lourdes and her whole team when selling our waterfront home. We interviewed several agents and felt Lourdes stood out because she really listened to our needs. We were selling our parents home and her calm approach, good council and extensive experience enabled us to sell the house at a good price point. Her services are also extensive - staging, advertising (including internationally), marketing, and she also has a large network of service providers - landscaping, cleaning, remodeling. We really left everything in her hands and didn’t worry. As we are not all local to the area, her hands on approach was vitally important. Thank you Lourdes!
Working with Lourdes and Pete Sliwa at Avanti Way made our relocation from Massachusetts to Melbourne, Florida entirely stress-free. Moving over a thousand miles is naturally overwhelming, but their combined expertise, responsiveness, and genuine care completely put us at ease. Lourdes and Pete deeply understand the unique challenges of long-distance buyers. Since we could not always be there in person, they went above and beyond by providing highly detailed and immediate answers to our endless questions. They did not just find us a house; they helped us find the perfect community that matches our lifestyle. Their experience, skills and insights are top-notch, and the Avanti Way team made the entire closing process seamless. If you are planning a move to the Space Coast, especially from out of state, do yourself a favor and hire Lourdes and Pete Sliwa. They are simply the best in the business!
Everyone loves a super hero right? Well I have found a super hero in Lourdes Sliwa. We had to sell my mother in law's home after she passed away last Fall. Lourdes stepped in and turned an unimaginable nightmare into a quick, successful cash sale with a thirty day closing. She had to deal with electrical, roofing, millworks, staging, marketing, and everyday issues of a twenty-nine year old home. She is truly a hero in my book. She took the listing with warts and all and advertised, marketed and sold it in record time. Did I mention I was living three states away and was little help to her? Hats off for super hero, Lourdes Sliwa!
