Carol Butler

When moving from Northern Illinois to be closer to my son and daughter-in-law in the St. Louis area, a family friend recommended Juli-Ann and Carol. Their knowledge of the real estate industry is outstanding as is their respectful approach to working with clients. Consistently forthcoming with accurate information, they offered cautions, observations, and suggestions, guiding rather than steering me so I could make informed decisions. I appreciated Juli-Ann's attention to the smallest detail, certainly her strength. Exceptionally responsive to my texts and emails, they often replied within minutes. I felt my needs, questions, concerns, and decisions genuinely mattered. Sharing their extensive network of knowledgeable professionals made navigating the many details considerably easier. When Carol and Juli-Ann say, “Every client is important,” they truly embody the meaning of those words. I have great appreciation for these kind women, dedicated real estate professionals, who guided me through an important transition in my life.

Carol and Juli-Ann were terrific to work with. They were kind, smart, responsive and gave us great advice. We walked through the house and they told us what to do to make it as marketable as possible. We did as they directed. We discussed pricing and while they were willing to list it for any number we wanted, they had a firm recommendation with a strategy behind it. We couldn't have been more pleased. In 24 hours we had two offers and sold the house for $150,000 over asking price. They stayed with us every step of the way until closing. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Carol and Julie-Ann were a first ballot hall of fame team. They know the market and helped us price our house correctly. They advised us about how and when to prepare our house for listing/showing and recommended service providers (e.g. painter, handyman) to assist. They answered every question, addressed every concern, followed-up on every request, crossed all T’s, dotted every I and helped us sell our house in one day, over the asking price. I recommend them enthusiastically and without reservation.

Had our best interest at all times.

Juli-Ann and Carol were comfortable to work with from the initial walk through to the house closing. Both were professional and responsive and I felt confident that I was receiving good advice navigating through the entire process which was at times, challenging. Their breadth of knowledge was apparent. Subsequently, I have already referred and encouraged other friends/family to utilize their services.

We always felt connected to Juli-Anne and Carol regardless of their real estate work load or if one of them was out of pocket. Additionally, with deep real estate experience Juli-Anne and Carol were able to give us real estate advice and/or solve any issue we encountered during the purchase of our new property and selling our home of 35 years. They carefully and diplomatically handled communication with us and all entities associated with our buying and selling needs. They were patient with us as we investigated and visited properties, returning many times to various properties for sale. They supplied us with contractors who could repair items in our 1950s home to pass inspections or buyer requests.
