Our agent, Jodi Bakst, was an advocate for our interests every step of the way. She listened to and understood the needs and hopes we articulated for the kind of house and property we wanted, and worked diligently to make them a reality. Always accessible and happy to hear from us, she presented us with great options, offered expert input, and helped us talk through our decisions. When the time came to make an offer, she kept us informed throughout the process while capably handling all the details and complexities to negotiate an equitable sale. It was a pleasure to work with her, and we couldn't be happier with the outcome!

Jodi helped me in my search for a townhouse in Chapel Hill. After we did not find any listed properties to my liking, Jodi contacted owners of properties not yet listed or on the market, but in which she learnt I may have an interest, I ended up purchasing such an off-market property, and it would not have happened without Jodi's considerable efforts and persistence. After contacting the property owner, Jodi quickly established a great working relationship with the Seller and negotiated a tough but fair purchase contract on my behalf. Her strong organizational and management skills guided the contract through due diligence and required repairs. Jodi also went above and beyond by scheduling and coordinating the repairs, painting, cleaning, etc. that made the house ready for my move in. I have dealt with a few agents over the years, but I can say without hesitation Jodi provided the best service and guidance. It was my pleasure working with Jodi on my recent purchase, and I will certainly recommend her to any buyers/sellers who are in need of an agent. She is simply the best!

Jodi is a top notch professional and this has been by far the best experience I've had while previously selling 3 other houses over the past 20 years.

Great attention to detail and persistence!!

Jodi was an exceptional agent. She helped us prepare the property for the sale and came up with the perfect list price. We received two offers within 24 hours of going on the market! She was available throughout the negotiation process. We are grateful for her hard work and expertise and will definitely contact her if we need a realtor in the future!

Jodi provided a total package from :1) listening to our requirements, 2) assessing the initial condition of the property, 3) with her personal experienced contractors supervised the required repairs, 4) designed the improvements made to the property, 5) effortlessly dealt with contract negotiations, always keeping our personal interest at heart, and 6) finally closed the contract. We highly recommend her.

Jodi is an amazing negotiator; I'd say that was her strongest skill for us - and our most needed. She fought hard to get us the best deal possible, both in the initial negotiations and after our inspection turned up several things that needed to be fixed before closing. She was a strong advocate for us in a tough sales process.

We interviewed 5 other agents and had them prepare their strategy and met with each one. Someone from Jodi's office called and suggested that I talk to Jodi for 5 minutes. I did so and then we met with her and decided to go with her over the 5 agents we had already considered and had recommendations for. We think that was a good decision. We greatly appreciate all Jodi's efforts to help us sell our long-time home and her persistence through the time it took to make it happen. Needless to say, it was not easy for any of us but the result was positive and a great relief to us. Jodi had also discussed our renting our home if we could not find a buyer and that was important, even though not our preference, but we had to face all the possibilities. We had also been told by two other agents that we needed to set the initial price at $525K in order to sell the house and Jodi was able to prove them wrong. We knew it was an unusual property but we needed someone who could look at that as an opportunity for the right buyer and not an excuse to sell cheap and move on. Thanks to Jodi for her efforts to help us find the right buyers and complete the sale on good terms for everyone. I hope the new owners will be happy there. We appreciate all that Jodi did and her patience in getting through all the showings for the wrong buyers, the complainers, etc. Jodi was professional and thorough and we thank her for getting the job done.

Jodi uses technology to support the sale. Has great resources available to help address repairs or upgrades. She is confident and knowledgeable about the market. She is a pleasure to work with.

We had a great experience with Jodi Bakst. She was helpful, informative, attentive and patient during the searching process. Once we found a house, she negotiated very well with the sellers to keep our deal moving in the right direction and get us the home for the right price. Overall, a great experience!

I live in Kentucky and Jodi Bakst not only kept me informed of the progress during the marketing, due diligence, inspections, and closing periods, she also recommended and scheduled contractors to handle necessary repairs. Her knowledge and contacts made it possible for me to remain in Kentucky and have confidence that everything was being handled appropriately. Her assistance was extremely valuable! I have had multiple experiences with other realtors in the past, and can honestly say that none measure up to the professionalism and integrity that Jodi possesses. As stressful as I thought the process might be, Jodi made me feel like I was in good hands every step of the way. And I was!

We were impressed with Jodi from the first meeting; that impression continued through every step. What else can I say? I believe all the "excellent" ratings speak to Jodi and our experience
