What My Clients Are Saying

“Joe did a great job, was very knowledgeable and patient. Worked hard to get me exactly what I want. It was a long search but he wasn't pushy and helped enforce my standards rather than encouraging relaxing them. As a first time home buyer, his wealth of experience and detail oriented nature were very reassuring and helpful throughout the process.”

“As first time homebuyers, my husband and I knew it would be imperative that we have a great realtor. Joe is exactly that. We were truly blessed to work with Joe! He is knowledgeable, patient, kind, honest, savvy, and always had our best interest in mind. Not only did he help us purchase the perfect home for our little family, but he also helped us feel much more informed about homeownership. Not to mention he has great recommendations for contractors, moving companies, etc. We couldn’t imagine this process without him!”

“Joe was a fantastic agent. He was super responsive and flexible so as to be able to show us homes at times that fit our busy schedule.

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND! My husband and I could not have been more thrilled to have worked with Joe. He is incredibly reliable and is always a text away. As first time home buyers, Joe taught us a lot and was very patient with our questions. My favorite part of my experience was seeing the houses with Joe before buying. I remember early on in the process Joe said "I would rather you see too many houses than not enough." I truly felt like Joe was working for me and looking after my best interests. He would meet us at houses at times that worked for our schedules (after work, on the weekends). He gave his honest feedback about houses regarding their structure/layout and helped us visualize space. We saw enough houses to learn our style and choose the house we ultimately purchased. The signing process was quick at the local Northrop Realty office. Even after buying, Joe has been in touch to help recommend contractors who can help us with house projects. I will definitely be using Joe again when we move in a few years.”

“We just bought a house and Joe did a great job helping us on every single step. I have worked with other agents in the past; Joe did an amazing job in this market as he was so helpful and patient on the house searching until the end. He contacted us early in the morning whenever there was a house meeting our criteria. He did a great job best representing us when we wanted to put an offer, he helped us with the inspections, etc as he knows a lot of knowledgable contractors, he did an amazing job informing us of the steps we needed to take while we were working on the settlement, until the end. He always made himself available for house showings. He is a fair and honest person and always has a good understanding of what issues a house may have and the updates needed for the house. I highly recommend him and I keep using his service in the future.”

“As first time homebuyers we were fortunate enough to have Joe recommended to us from a co-worker. In this crazy pandemic-era housing market Joe still managed to find us an amazing house and fought hard for the price. He was always available whenever we had questions and made the whole process seamless for us! We will definitely recommend Joe to any of our friends looking for a realtor and look forward to working with him again in the future!”
