Monica Rousseau

Monica came into the picture after several months with another realty firm. Immediately things were different. Focused attention and ideas to help market the property. I felt an immense sense of relief. She kept me informed every step of the way. Professional, personable and just a joy to work with.

When my siblings and I found ourselves in a position of having to sell our cherished mountain house in Maggie Valley, NC, Monica Rousseau, Realty ONE Group Pivot was recommended to us. From our first contact with Monica to the closing, we never regretted our choice. We live about five hours away in a different state, so we knew we would have to rely heavily on our realtor. Monica, being a full service provider, was just what we needed. She knew the market well and was able to assess what needed to be done to our home before listing it. Not only did she oversee the work that was currently in progress, but she found local contractors to complete the other jobs we had decided to do before listing. Hurricane Helene arrived to briefly interrupt things, but nothing rattled Monica. She was able to handle the interruptions from the storm in her personal life, all the while, never dropping the ball with the preparations for listing. She is a gifted communicator and an excellent negotiator if negotiations are needed. We were kept well informed every step of the way. The complete closing was handled using phone calls, email, US mail, texts and electronic transfers. What a gift that was not having to drive five hours for the closing! Monica Rousseau is a true professional, and, in our opinion, number one in her field. We were completely pleased with the outcome and our choice of a realtor.

Monica is fantastic and knew just what to do in terms of getting my property sold. She and her team use staging, social media, etc to ensure that my property was sold quickly. It was under contract in 5 days! You won't regret hiring her!!

Monica is by far one of the best agents my husband and I have had the pleasure to work with. She offered us advice and insight into the market and helped us get our house ready to sell. Monica took the initiative and had our house photographed and ready for listing quickly. Our house in Black Mountain had been in our family for over 35 years and we wantedto get through closing quickly. Within hours of Monica listing our house, we had 3 showings and within 2 days had offers. Monica helped us make the right decision and we closed within 28 days. I'm sure that is not possible for every home but we could not have gone through this process without her. Would recommend her services to anyone!!

Ms. Rousseau was a great agent and I was very satisfied with her work on behalf of our house sale. She listened attentively to our needs and requirements, and thus ensured that the house sold quickly, instead of trying to talk us into the trap of demanding the maximum profit, which would have had the house go stale on the market, and eventually cause a decrease in it’s selling price. Her suggestions on how to show the house and what to do to make the house appealing were dead on.

We moved to Hendersonville from a 10 acre property with multiple buildings to a single home on less than an acre (downsizing). When we needed to find a realtor in this area we were given Monica's name and told she was excellent - and she was the best. She took the time to fully understand our needs and showed us several different alternatives to help us prioritize what was important to us. Her knowledge of the different neighborhoods and sections in and around Hendersonville was phenomenal. She could give us details and pro/cons of different houses for questions we did not even think to ask. For example, she would point out how features of each home would impact us over time. She knew a lot about the structural issues of the homes to help us understand potential problems in the future. Monica explained to us how to make an offer which highlighted all the issues of the current market for homes as well as items unique to the home we wanted to purchase. In the end, we were able to negotiate a price well below the original sales price and within our budget. Since we were moving from "out of town", Monica would structure our visits to Hendersonville to maximize our time. She was patient but also kept us focused on what was important about each property we visited. During the time between an offer and closing, she made sure all the inspections/activities associated with closing were completed and on-time. We feel fortunate to have found Monica to help us find our perfect home in Hendersonville. Her suggestions and advice guided to the house we now call and home.
