Jodi is an excellent communicator and knows the Chapel Hill and surrounding area market extremely well. She has always been professional and kind and helpful. She always goes above and beyond , and knows to focus on the big picture. She knows the right people to help you get things done before the house goes on the market and she knows how to prioritize tasks . I was impressed with her ability to see what needed to be done. She advised us very well and her advertising methods, photography , are at the forefront of what’s needed today to get the sale done. She’s highly recommended and this is not the first real estate transaction she’s done with us , so it’s a testament to her excellence that we specifically sought her out again !

Jodi represented us as the seller and guided us well from start to finish. She has strong market knowledge and extensive industry experience. Highly recommend.

Jodi was a great partner in selling my home. I met her through the buying process, where she represented the seller (as I was buying). She was firm and fair from a buyer perspective and advocated incredibly for her client. When it was time for me to move out of state and sell my home, she was just as big of an advocate for me as she'd been when I was on the other side of the table. She's extremely professional and took her time to make sure I was comfortable with every stage of the process as a first time seller. Thanks Jodi!

Jodi is fantastic! She was with us every step of the way to get us the property we were looking for. I highly recommend her and will always go with her as my real estate agent in the future.

From our first contact Jodi has set herself apart from other realtors we have known over the years. She was patient, thorough and did her research. Each time we visited a property we had so much information to assist in understanding the area and the value of the property including comps and outside advice for possible changes we were considering to a property. Once we chose to make an offer, she continued to offer council and assisted us through closing. When she was unavailable she had an associate assist who was also incredibly helpful. Jodi is possibly the best agent I have ever worked with.

Jodi took care of every detail, followed up with surveyors, inspections, work which needed to be done, and did it all under sometimes trying conditions - all with good humor and thoughtfulness. She gave us a sense of security and peace of mind that all would run smoothly...and it did! She communicated with us almost daily so we were assured that everything was being taken of. She is a true professional with a very human touch.

Jodi has great knowledge of the real estate market. She offers guidelines prior to listing a house and advice on how to best market it. She knows about solar energy, backup power systems and energy efficiency, which very few agents are familiar with. Occasionally she was hard to reach, but she worked hard for us and we appreciated that.

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.
