Seller of 611 Carmel Drive, Sneads Ferry
We had such a wonderful experience working with Joann & Ashley. They were kind, professional, and incredibly thorough throughout the entire process. They took the time to answer our questions, explain everything clearly, and made sure we felt comfortable and informed every step of the way. Their attention to detail and genuine care made what can be a stressful process feel so much easier. We truly appreciated their guidance and support and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!
Seller of 110 Ruby Yopp Circle, Sneads Ferry
My husband and I met Joann a few years ago when she helped us with finding our coastal home. Her professional and personal demeanor made a lasting impression on us, so she was the obvious choice when we needed assistance. Over the years Joann had helped us with 3 different real estate transactions. The most recent sale of our house was the perfect example how adaptable and competent Joann is. Due to our family situation, we were absentee sellers, trying to get the house ready from the distance. Joann stepped in and took care of everything: from hiring the cleaners, painters to the market analysis and negotiations. Throughout the entire process she communicated with us constantly, making sure we were well informed and satisfied. Thanks to her diligent and efficient work we were able to list and sell the house fairly quickly. Joann is the consummate professional, not easy to find these days. I heartfully recommend her to everyone.

Seller of 1698 Old Folkstone Rd, Sneads Ferry
Where do I begin? My house looked amazing(in my opinion), curb side appeal, tons of showings, everything was going well, problems started to show from the previous owner, then the wife panics, now you know where that lands you. Mr.John was there, Mr.John had solutions yet keeping every possible outcome realistic, telling me things I didn’t want to hear, but needed to hear while still telling me he’s going to doing everything he possibly can, and he does it. I had a couple dozen situations he admitted he’s never been in before, but that’s where his experience shows, doesn’t just say deal with it and move on but lets take a minute to reflect on this situation to see what our new options are. If you want someone that will sell your home, why would you look anywhere else? If I could do business forever with this man I would, but that’s how Mr.John will treat you, as if you will be doing business together forever, not just some one time sale. Trust Mr.John because I did!!!!
Seller of 300 Sea Urchin Cove, Sneads Ferry
John persevered under somewhat trying circumstances, with a dated interior at the property and a dull market. When dealing with John, the one quality I loved above all others, was his honesty. Anytime he gave me information, I knew I could rely on it.

Joe is very personable and patient. He kept a level head during intense negotiations and helped us understand a very complicated deal. His knowledge of the market in Sneads Ferry is extensive. He and Dena Powers make great team!
Seller of 102 Pirates Cove, Sneads Ferry
Joe was a great agent to work with. He listened, shared expertise and delivered results all without the high pressure we have come to expect from agents. We were out of town when the house was listed and he was always willing to jump in and help where needed. I would highly recommend Joe if you want an agent who actually works to get your home sold!

Fletcher and Amye were a dynamic duo. They were on top of every move before I even thought about it. They were knowledgeable on what properties had deeper water and kept us updated on new properties available. They put up with our million and one questions being a new buyer on the water and guided us through the whole process. They went above and beyond to the very end.They are the best agents and I would recommend them 100%. We wouldn’t want anyone else. Thank you Fletcher and Amye! You guys are amazing and we are truly grateful for your friendship.
