We sent her 3-4 listings we liked and she pulled a bunch more we didn’t even see. She helped us find the perfect home for us.

This was our second experience using Jodi Bakst to shop real estate in the Triangle Area, and she's 2 for 2! Jodi is knowledgeable, responsive, helpful, and aggressively proactive for her clients. We're from out of state, so it was especially important to have Jodi's extensive knowledge of the market, NC laws, and contacts for every aspect of our purchase; from inspections through extensive upgrades after purchase, Jodi held our hands every step of the way. Cannot recommend her enough! Lyn and Steve

We have rarely worked with someone so approachable yet professional, caring and competent… our largest concerns ( inspections, selling price etc) were met but so were small yet worrisome issues…the sorts of things that keep sellers up at night like messy paint jobs and trash cans and lights left on or alarms left off…Jodi handled them all with calm, with humor and with speed.

We were out of town sellers and Jodi and her team were very helpful identifying and getting done for us all of the tasks and improvements required for sale in this market environment. And we sold for well over the asking price - thank you!

We were so lucky to have found Jodi when we were relocating to Durham! Jodi exemplifies all the traits of a vanishing breed of professional individuals who love what they do. We had a lengthy long distance home search with many twists and turns deciding whether or not to build a home and changing course many times. Jodi was always willing and available to show us properties and always encouraging. We ended up finding an ideal home for us in a perfect location. Jodi navigated what were some difficult dealings and tension filled moments, the end result being that we got the house! Her attention to detail did not end with closing on the property. She is a boundless knowledgeable resource for all home related inquiries. I would not hesitate to use her again if the need arises, or to recommend her to family and friends for the buying or selling of a home.

Jodi went above and beyond negotiating on our behalf with what was most likely the most difficult seller in real estate history. The home we were purchasing had solar panels that had not worked in 2 - 3 years. Jodi used her knowledge of the solar industry to work with vendors to figure out why the system did not work and obtain a credit from the seller to compensate us for the needed repairs. After the closing Jodi has remained in contact with us and provided numerous recommendations for vendors. Her post sale service included a home warranty, which we have used to replace a double oven & exhaust fan at minimal cost to us. We have purchased numerous properties in the last 30 years and I will say Jodi has provided the most post sale support of any agent we've ever used. We would highly recommend her as a buyers agent.

I have known Jodi for several years and have referred her to friends who needed a good Realtor without hesitation. This spring she helped our family with a fairly complicated sale of a rental property and 1031 exchange, and she was outstanding in her attention to detail and follow up. She was even able to find replacement properties with a good rate of return, which other Realtors told me was almost impossible in this market. Jodi is extraordinarily hard working and ethical in her business dealings. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

We worked with Jodi initially months before starting to officially look for a house, as we were moving from out of state. She helped us do an initial overview of Chapel Hill, the neighborhoods, etc. She got to know us and understand what we were looking for. Months later, we started house hunting. She was patient, professional, honest, and was always our advocate. If we had additional questions about a property we had seen, she would follow up, get the information for us. Jodi knows very well the area and her experience made us feel very comfortable navigating the real state market in a new city. She was very helpful and went the extra mile for us. She helped us find the house that we were looking for and even helped us navigate a challenging negotiation. She was always by our side and had was very good at communicating with us. We have had previous experiences buying houses and Jodi is definitely the top tier of real state agents. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking to buy in the Research Triangle area. She was a pleasure to work with!

Jodi was excellent in every way and handling multiple real estate transactions in a very tight market and a complicated situation. She was extremely knowledgeable, very upfront when we asked for her opinion, and highly professional throughout. I really appreciated her willingness to be direct and yet to let us make our own decisions.

My experience was absolutely phenomenal. My parents used Jodi about 15 years ago and loved her, I decided to work with her to purchase my first home and she was amazing. I felt super comfortable, she took lead and asked questions about thinks I had no idea about. She stayed with me throughout the whole process and I found an amazing home. Couldn’t be happier! I recommended her to a friend who ended up buying a house with Jodi within in the month!

Jodi is the best, whether you are buying, selling or both. We wouldn't even consider working with any other realtor. She found a perfect house for us to buy and did an amazing job marketing the one we sold. All while being fun to work with!

Jodi did an excellent job of helping us sell our moms townhouse after she passed. It was a complicated deal with lots of headaches but Jodi was right by our side to help us navigate it all. She remained calm and collected and really went above and beyond to get the deal closed for top dollar. I highly recommend Jodi for both buyers and sellers.
