JoDene Moneuse is one of the most gifted real estate agents we have encountered through our many years of experience. She tempered her keen and significant knowledge of the market with an intuitive feel for our needs and our requests. She was a problem-solver at every turn. But, most of all, she was the consummate professional, so sweet and always patient and persistent. Her partner Deborah Schlener was a cheerful, hard-working, addition to the team, always willing to do what she could to help drive the process. The sale of our home was a pleasant experience and (mostly!) stress-free. We absolutely recommend the Saunders team without any reservation.
I want to express my pleasure and gratitude in working with JoDene Moneuse on the sale of my property. JoDene was recommended to me by a friend who had recently worked with her and bragged about how absolutely wonderful she was in selling her property. As I desired a quick sale, I wanted to make sure I chose a realtor who was professional, understood the market and would advise me on any changes I needed to make to ensure a quick sale at a good price. I chose JoDene after interviewing two other agents and selected her based on her quick assessment (with no holds barred) on what improvements I needed to make to get the best price. One realtor didn't think any improvements were necessary while another suggested more costly improvements. JoDene was right in the middle, but her confidence and immediate feedback on how to effectively market the property sold me on her. I was not disappointed. After following her recommendationsto the letter (down to the color of shower curtain) I was rewarded with 4 offers in the first week! She carefully walked me though the pros and cons of each offer before I chose a buyer. Although the financing fell through on that offer, she was able to go back to those who were previously interested and quickly came back with another great offer. At this point she had earned my complete trust so I felt confident as she steered me through the negotiations to get the exact price I wanted. JoDene (I call her Superstar (2)) understands the market and knows how to sell real estate! On top of that, she's a kind person. I look forward to working with her again in the future.
