I have worked with Jodi now on two home purchases and one sale. She has always worked hard to advocate for me, through some pretty strange ups and downs. When I bought a flipped house, she worked hard to make sure that any shortcuts were caught in inspection and fixed by the flipper. And when my buyer backed out of my home sale, she turned on a dime to help us relist and provided great advice and reassurance throughout the entire selling process. I would highly recommend Jodi!

I have worked with Jodi now on two home purchases and this sale. She has always worked hard to advocate for me, and this time was no exception. She provided great counsel in advising what I should do to prep the home and stage it for listing, sound price comps, and amazing last-minute support when our first buyer backed out of the sale for personal reasons. Everything went smoothly (all things considered) and I always knew I could trust Jodi with any question or request.

Jodi regularly provided a range of homes to review, was prompt in scheduling showings, and had helpful feedback about pricing and neighborhoods. Once we were under contract, she was remarkably thorough at keeping the process moving, coordinating with our lender, and ensuring that repairs from the inspection contingency were attended to. I was very impressed by her conscientiousness and recommend her strongly as a buyer's agent!

Most professional and insightful realtor I’ve ever worked with I actually began working with Jodi about three years prior to selling our house. She provided an assessment of my home following A failed attempt to sell the property during a divorce. She recommended changes and improvements we could make in advance of attempting a resale of the property. Once we decided to put the house on the market again she provided additional up-to-date insights on fire trends and how to price and position the home. After our home was on the market for about 60 days she recommended minor adjustments to the Marketing and the pricing of our home which ultimately resulted in a successful sale. She is a realtor with savvy business chops. I recommend Jodi without hesitation.

We have bought, built or sold properties in Chapel Hill and Hillsborough 7 times over the past 16 years, through Jodi Bakst. We had great experience working with Jodi and her team every single time, and Jodi has become a good friend of our family over the years. Most of the transactions occurred when we were living away from Chapel Hill. Jodi would send us listings and would painstakingly preview properties that we thought might work for us. Sometimes she would work with us for years before we found one property we liked. Jodi typically handled the inspection, survey, closing and any other research we tasked her with, and her diligence was always meticulous. Jodi goes over and beyond her call of duty to help her clients both before and after closing. She has recommended to us skilled professionals to carry out repairs or improvements to the property both before and after sale. Jodi maintains good relationship with her clients well after a sale is completed. Since we are frequently away from town, Jodi periodically checks on our house especially after severe weather conditions, and we depend on her to let tradespeople in for maintenance or other work, years after the house was purchased. It is good to have Jodi on your side during the stressful periods of buying or selling your house, as she has her client's best interest at heart. Jodi will always steer you in the right direction and will never put pressure on you.

I can’t say enough good things about Jodi! Her savvy business sense is just what we needed to sell our older fixer upper. We found her to be both knowledgeable and personable. Thank you Jodi!

This house was in a difficult area, and Jodi guided us through changes we made to be competitive. We were very happy that we worked with her. She was professional and responsive in every way. We were especially impressed with her help in finding and guiding people repairing the house, and in the people she recommended to help us present the home, improving a number of areas (garden, interior, virtual staging etc). I would readily recommend Jodi strongly to anyone.

We could not have asked for a better experience than working with Jodi Bakst to sell our house. She gave us excellent advice on preparing it for sale, and doing an advance home inspection to make sure there would be no surprises at closing. She found good comparables and made an excellent recommendation on how to price it, with the result that it sold within four days at a price substantially higher than the listing. And throughout the process, she and her staff were fully on top of all the details and thoroughly professional. All in all, a most positive experience.

Can’t really say enough nice things about Jodi - in short, this is the buying experience we wanted to have and we would work with her again. She is professional, sharp, and punctual - her working in the area for many years became obvious with her knowledge of neighborhoods and market tendencies. She quickly grasped what we were looking for in a home and in seeing >15 homes, we never felt pressured to pull the trigger on one we didn’t “love”. If felt like she had our best interests at heart, and it was fun. She used her eye to help identify features that changed the value of the house, and picked things our we wouldn’t have otherwise noticed. When it came time to review inspection and repair items, she had numerous contacts at her disposal to obtain quotes (within hours) and help us understand repairs that should be immediate vs down-the-road and what they’d cost. We actually thought in the midst of COVID that we might have been her only clients because of how responsive she was to our texts and calls. Never took longer than a few minutes to get a hold of her, or an answer regarding a question on one of the homes. We did place several offers that were not accepted - each time we hadn't taken Jodi's advice. We listened to her the third time and now have our future home :). We have never worked with another real estate agent before but, as above, we would be lucky to work with her again. Thank you Jodi! Verified by RateMyAgent

Jodi did a fantastic job working with us to find a new home in a really tough market. She gave us great advice and guidance and stayed really engaged through various ups and downs and setbacks. Over the process we grew to really trust and depend on her experience and insight. We would recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home in the Research Triangle area.
