I was moving from another state. My son was in Fla handling things for me. Jo was the realtor. She contacted me, kept me informed as to what I needed to do. Whenever I had a question, I sent her an email and always got a quick response. Very happy with her. She made things easier for me, doing this long distance.
Jo was very helpful during my search for a vacation rental property, especially since I lived out of state. She showed me houses while I visited and also went to properties solo when I couldn’t be there, giving her honest opinion of condition and location. After finding the perfect property, she had many professional recommendations which made the whole purchasing process very easy! I would highly recommend Jo to anyone looking to buy their own Florida oasis!
Thank you Jo. You brought so much to our home buying experience. When we reflect on the time we spent working with you, we use words like: Optimism, Team, consistency, strategy, empathy, experience, territory knowledge and industry experience. The kindness and patience you shared with us through the entire process were appreciated. Your ability to juggle life, your business and other client's while always seemingly able to drop everything for us separates you from most other realtors. We highly recommend Jo Walker. Thank you.
Jo is very knowledgeable in all aspects of the home buying/selling process. She communicates efficiently and was very responsive to all my requests. I would use her again for sure!
Jo helped our family buy a home when we moved to the state. With homes being snapped up so quick Jo was wonderfully responsive, doing video tours for us (since we were long distance) and researching neighborhoods that would fit what we were looking for. She was both professional and friendly…a great choice of realtor for us!
Coming from another state is already hard, but having someone who has your best interests at heart and will fight on your behalf during the home buying process is an experience you’ll want. Jo will communicate, share honest details, be diligent with other realtors and get the job done. She helped us snag a house from out of state on our first try and we closed within a month. I will be forever grateful to her for helping me start over in Florida in home I’ll be in for many years.
Jo Walker was referred to us by our friends who purchased a home about a year and a half prior to myself and my husband moving to Florida. Moving to a new state means not always knowing where to turn when making big or even small decisions and purchasing a home is definitely a BIG one! Jo went out of her way LITERALLY, as she lives over an hour away from where we were looking to settle down. When we reached out to her she was actually on vacation hundreds of miles away, but like any great realtor she is never far from her laptop or phone. Since we were interested in beginning our search before she was able to return, she didn't hesitate to reach out to multiple sellers agents to assist us. Then when she returned a few days later she contracted the flu and still managed to assist us virtually. We finally got to meet in person somewhere around the third home and we absolutely loved her. When we made our decision on a home she navigated all the intricacies we have come to expect from realtors, all of the details that would make novices like you and me want to throw our hands up and walk away. The home we wanted and eventually purchased had minor property damage from hurricane Ian and a prior contract in place for a new roof unrelated to Ian. We never had to deal with situations like this before but she handled them amazingly. She's a "kick the tires and look under the hood" kind of realtor...lol! What I mean by that is, every step of the process, from the initial walk through, to the repairs, the roofing contract, EVERYTHING. She advised us on what to consider, pros and cons, size of the property, condition of the appliances etc, as if she were considering buying the house with you. That is EXACTLY the kind of realtor we like and that is EXACTLY the kind of realtor you get with her. All of that expertise, delightful personality, sense of humor and someone who took the time to get to know us. We highly and confidently recommend Jo Walker...and her little dog Coco. : )
Jo is hands down the best realtor we have ever had! She is professional, organized and a step ahead of everything. We had 2 moves in less than a year in this market and we can say with confidence that if it weren't for her we would have been renting. Highly recommend to anyone looking to buy, sell or both!
Jo is very professional, knowledgeable and courteous. She is truly a gem! She has been our real estate agent for almost 20 years and totally recommend her!!
Jo is extremely knowledgeable, always responsive and LISTENED to what I liked/disliked and hoped to find. And, she remembered my preferences throughout my 6 month search. She helped me while I was in town but also from out of state, even running over, on a spur of the moment, to show me a house via FaceTime in order to see it before dark! She was excellent in negotiations and writing offers, knowing the market and price points in a tough market. Was calming and helpful during my first time buyer anxieties. It was really a joy to work with Jo!
Besides being very sweet, Jo is very professional. She is always available and never gives you false expectations. Jo has been our real estate girl for almost 20 years.
I am a real estate investor that lives outside the St. Pete area and need a Realtor that I can rely on as my “boots on the ground” in buying, selling and leasing. I can’t (nor want) to micro-manage my buying and selling and need a seasoned professional to handles these functions on my behalf. Since that last decade, I wholly rely on Jo. She is passionate about her work, is highly technically proficient, has extreme attention to detail and most of all, deeply cares. I cannot recommend her higher.
