- Highly likely to recommend

Bought a Single Family home in 2011 for approximately $50k in Midtown, Memphis, TN.

Summary:

Joe knows the market -- and he will always give you an honest opinion - even if it is one you don't really want to hear. In addition to his property prowess, his "little black book" of resources comes in VERY handy when renovation times comes along. His contacts are more than reason to do business with him! As an added bonus, he is laid back and puts his talents to work for the city in his spare time.More Less

- Highly likely to recommend

Sold a Single Family home in 2011 for approximately $150k in Midtown, Memphis, TN.

Summary:

Joe came highly recommended from a friend. Our house was listed by Joe and during the time on market, he was proactive in setting up open houses, placing ads, etc. Joe returned calls quickly and was very accessible. Punctuality is very important to us, and whenever we set up a meeting time, Joe arrived right on time.

Our house sold after 2-3 weeks on the market. I would definitely recommend that anyone looking for an agent contact Joe.

- Highly likely to recommend

Bought a home in 2011.

Summary:

Joe's knowledge of Memphis and specifically the Midtown market is extensive. I had very specific requirements on where I wanted to buy and Joe narrowed down the properties that met those requirements extremely effectively. Given I was purchasing from out of town on behalf of a college age daughter, the following were key in my selection of a buying agent:

1) Trustworthiness - someone I could trust completely who would be willing to take students seriously including a willingness to show them round properties in my absence. 2) Honesty - someone willing to work with me remotely, telling me a property was overpriced, not in a good location or could become a money pit. 3) Knowledge of not only the immediate search area but surrounding neighbourhoods. 4) Knowledge and referrals for local services (loans, repairs, lawn maintenance etc) 5) Knowledge of the TN real estate buying process

I read the reviews on Zillow and saw that Joe had high recommendations in all of these areas. Having completed my house purchase, I can honestly say that Joe definitely lives up to his reputation and deserves the five star status. I would willingly work with Joe again on either the buying or selling side of the process.
