TESTIMONIALS

Great job

Jim and Janet did a great job selling my townhouse. They drew lots of people to the open houses with their marketing techniques and were very responsive and helpful throughout the process. I will definitely use Jim and Janet again for my real estate needs!

Confident and Knowledgeable

I have known them personally for more than 10 years, and from my broad experience with their conduct in various circles, I was already expecting a high level of quality of service.  What we received, however, blew those expectations out of the water.

We spent more than a year waffling on whether to sell, but personal circumstances eventually forced a sale.  During that year, Janet was helpful and patient with my many questions.  She would often provide unsolicited information on comparables in the neighborhood or other interesting developments, which helped to stay attuned to how the market was changing at any given time, but was never pushy or hovering.

When we finally did decide to put the unit up for sale, the market was turning and time was extremely short.  Janet helped prioritize a list of quick hits to make the house more marketable.  We made good progress, but as the photo day loomed, Janet picked up a paint brush herself to help make the date.  I welcomed the help, but was very surprised by this level of dedication.

In the end, the photos and matterport were incredible.  This was partly due to the advance effort, but also because of staging effort and getting the right photographer.  Janet is capable, well connected, and knows exactly what she wants for these services.

During the time on the market, there was an open house every weekend, attended by at least Jim or Janet.  At the end of every day, we received very detailed reports about visitors and prospects, which really helped keep expectations set appropriately.

Throughout negotiations, they were confident and knowledgeable and communicative.  In some very challenging market conditions, we met our selling price expectations within a very short time window and got the quick possession we were looking for.  A highly successful outcome for us.

In my opinion, this success is the result of working with a team composed of both Janet and Jim.  Their strengths complement each other well.  Janet is the back office--extremely detailed and organized and leaves nothing to chance.  Jim comes across as the sales guy--gregarious, charismatic and helping buyers dream big.  Despite their different strengths, deep market knowledge, unflinching integrity and customer service are at the core in both of them.

I would not hesitate to engage them in the future, and in fact look forward to the chance to do so.

A Great Experience!

It was a pleasure to deal with Janet and Jim.  They were very thorough and gave us great advice on the sale of our home.  No pressure, and they always kept us in the loop as far as timing for showings and things.  A great experience!

Fantastic End Result

Working with Janet and Jim was an absolute pleasure! They are reliable, efficient and extremely

professional. The process began with very clear explanations of how the entire process works,

their roles, and the decisions they would be assisting us with. There is a lot of information for a

seller to take in. Having realtors who took the time to explain things clearly and answer all

questions before anything has started, gave us a strong feeling of reassurance and confidence that

we were working with the right team. Their thoroughness and competence extended throughout

the entire process culminating in a fantastic end result. My wife and I recommend Janet Seney

and Jim van der Tas!
