Rob N. sold a home in San Jose

"Working with Joanne as the Seller of my home led to the best real estate transaction outcome that I have experienced in four relocations buying and selling. Despite the pressure this created to get my house vacated, Joanne knew who to call on to orchestrate my move-out with the stagers' move-in, and she handled all the details to perfection. There were no scheduling snafu's - zero, including all the inspections! Joanne produced a very impressive narrated video that highlighted and positioned the key unique advantages of my property. Joanne recommended the pricing strategy that accurately predicted the actual response to our price. The result: one open house, multiple offers above asking price, skilled negotiation to encourage counter offers, and a signed agreement at the end of the first week following listing. With complete confidence I recommend that you contact Joanne Fraser as your first and best move if you are in the market to buy or sell a home."

Sharry D. sold a home in Palo Alto

Joanne sold my home in Palo Alto in Dec 2019, recommended by a friend. I called her day before movers came to pack me up & asked to met her. I was leaving state, no plan to return, told her I would like to give her my keyes, have her sell my home & send me a check. Best decision ever. She stepped in smoothly end of Oct, arranged for inspections, reports, painting, staging and recommended some garden upgrades. All handled smoothly by phone calls, texts, emails, keeping me appraised at every step. Proceeded to list my home in Nov, one open house, 4 cash offers received by Wed! She skillfully negiotiated for best price & early close -- my home was sold on Thanksgiving morning! Entire process was skillfully set in motion and planned for success. I could not have been more pleased to see how much she exceeded all expectations.

John R. bought a home in Mountain View

Everyone knows the first rule of real estate is: Location Location Location. I think the first rule of selecting a broker for your real estate needs is: Experience Experience . Joanne is deeply experienced in all facets of the real estate process, especially here in the bay area. Don't take my word for it. Check out her amazing resume and convince yourself. On top of her impressive credentials she gives clear answers and she never failed to address a concern or help us resolve a question during our shopping and buying processes. Joanne was an exceptional advocate for our interests every step of the way. Our experience with Joanne was nothing short of amazing. We made only one offer, which was accepted due to Joanne's extraordinary negotiating skills. Joanne helped us navigate the finances with her extensive contactsJoanne helped us find the path that worked for us to building wealth as homeowners and forged a long-lasting relationship based on trust.

Wayne S. sold a home in Sunnyvale

I got acquainted with Joanne quite a few years ago when I had a licensed contractor business.Joanne kept in contact better than any other realtor I worked for, and seemed more thorough and diligent about getting things done in a timely manner. That proved to be a genuine asset in getting my house listed for sale this month. The staging maximized the impression making my home look like a nice place to live. An important objective of getting multiple offers was accomplished by having everything ready for tours starting with a weekend when prospective buyers would be most likely be available. Joanne marketed that weekend with "Coming Soon" messages just prior to the weekend. Demonstrating her wisdom from years of experience, Joanne recommended an asking price to maximize visibility to on line shoppers. My house was sold with multiple offers at 15% over asking price. You will have outstanding results with clear communications if you choose Joanne Fraser. I enthusiastically recommend her.

Don H. sold a home in Los Altos

Joanne and I have worked together since 1989. In that time she handled our property as a rental and finally as a sale. She did all the interviewing of prospective tenants, handled problems which arose like broken appliances, sewer problems etc. She worked with contractors when we were preparing the house for sale including staging and got a super price. Very high integrity very personable and the best you could hope for. I highly recommend her for all your real estate needs.

William L. sold a home in San Jose

Joanne is by far the best real estate agent with whom I've worked. She has helped my wife and I sell three properties and buy one over the past several years. If we hadn't moved out of the area, we'd absolutely work with her on any and all future real estate transactions. She is exceptionally well-organized, tracks and manages all aspects of buying and/or selling properties and is extremely responsive

Mark S. sold a home in Sunnyvale

Joanne is great! She is very responsive, has a thorough understanding of the local real estate market and is superb at walking you through everything that needs to get done. She referred a wonderful realtor that my wife & I used to find our new house in another county. After patiently waiting for nine months for us to be ready to move, Joanne helped us (1) find an organizer to get us through sorting(2) find a contractor to intelligently renovate our old condo (3) Joanne also dealt with our Home Owners Association, their old management company and their new one. (4) She checked in with us d (5) Finally Joanne listed, sold, and closed our condo within a couple of weeks once the renovations were done and got us significantly more than we expected. Real estate transactions are always going to be stressful but Joanne really lightens your load. We heartily recommend her to anyone wanting to buy or sell property in the Bay Area.

John T. sold a home in Palo Alto

I interviewed six qualified realtors and chose Joanne Fraser. She seemed to me to the best qualified for the area of the property. She also had tech skills that made our connection much more accessible. She is good with the title company and knows her way around offers, counteroffers and listings. She is pleasant to work with and knows her way around the total real estate business. I would recommend her as a highly qualified person to represent all real estate matters
