“I had the absolute pleasure of working with Jocelyn to sell my home, and I cannot say enough great things about the experience. From start to finish, she was professional, knowledgeable, and completely dedicated to ensuring every detail was handled with care. From our first meeting, Jocelyn impressed me with her in-depth knowledge of the local market and a clear, effective strategy to market my property. She guided me through every step of the process, from preparing my home for sale to negotiating offers with precision and skill. Jocelyn even brought in professional photographers to highlight my home’s best features, and the results were absolutely stunning! One of Jocelyn's standout qualities is her communication. She was always available to answer my questions, keep me updated on showings and feedback, and offer invaluable advice. Jocelyn made what can often be a stressful process feel seamless and stress-free. Thanks to her expertise and hard work, my home sold quickly and for an excellent price. Jocelyn truly went above and beyond, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. If you’re looking for a realtor who is not only highly skilled but also genuinely cares about her clients, look no further than Jocelyn. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home – you won’t be disappointed!”

“Judah was such an amazing agent to work with! He helped us make a dream a reality. He was there to answer all of our questions as first-time home buyers and helped us easily navigate every step. We strongly recommend him as your real estate agent.”

“Linda Tillis has worked in real estate in DeKalb County for many years, and she is very knowledgeable about the area and the realtors in our community. She gives excellent advice on what kind of repairs and renovations would make one’s property show to advantage. She is energetic and keeps the sale process moving as fast as possible, which is really important in a competitive market. She has good ties with craftspeople in the community and can recommend people who will do good work in a timely fashion if you need their services. Working with Linda is easy and reassuring in what can be a challenging process of buying or selling a home.”

“Linda Tillis is a 5-star realtor. She was our realtor for both buying a new home and selling our old home in 2023-2024. What sets Linda apart is her experience, not just with homes but also with home buyers and sellers. She has seen it all and understands current real estate conditions and trends in the wider context of the local market. This experience helps home buyers and sellers make good decisions. We highly recommend Linda Tillis to sell or buy your next property.”

“Linda Tillis was our agent, both when we were buying and selling homes, and she was efficient and savvy. She was patient with us when we were looking for a home to purchase and got us showings very quickly. When it came to selling our house, Linda, with her wealth of experience, guided us well and helped us find tradespeople who could make our home more attractive to buyers. She was always available, always offering sage advice. Real estate transactions are stressful, but knowing that we could depend on Linda's expertise and support was reassuring.”

“We highly recommend Rachel. Moving from California, she understood our dream of becoming home owners. She made everything easy to understand and guided us through all the steps. Thank you Rachel for helping us find a house that we LOVE!”

“Rachael was the perfect agent for us. We were not in a hurry to move, and I had a long list of ‘needs’ and some ‘wants’ for the home that would be comfortable, safe, and appropriate for our golden years. Rachael listened to us carefully, and last year she found us our lovely home. From the moment we walked in the front door, we just knew that this was the one. It had everything on my need list, and so much on my want list. After a year of living here, I still tell her how much I LOVE my home! She also sold our last home to the 1st buyer that walked in. She helped me with advice on staging, and what we needed to do to help it sell quickly. She made both the buying and selling process easy and stress free. She was always quick to answer any of our questions. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. THANKS RACHAEL!!!”

“When we were ready to sell our home, we wanted to put our trust in a confident, capable, and experienced realtor. One that is professional as well as personable. Vickie Foster is that person. One meeting with her and we knew we made the right decision. Vickie took the notes and room measurements she needed to formulate a comprehensive listing. She broke down the various inspection, attorney, and closing fees that would incur with the sale of our property. No question was too small. She gave us adequate advance notice of an upcoming viewing as well as feedback. All done with respect and integrity. Vickie’s friendliness and communication skills are second to none. We offer our sincere thanks for such a positive experience.”

“Judah was an excellent help in finding us a house in DeKalb. We moved from Chicago, and he was always very accommodating with showing us several houses at the times we were able to make the the drive out. We bought our first house with his assistance, and we went in knowing next to nothing about the process. By the end of it we were confident purchasers, thanks to all the knowledge he shared with us. He spotted pros and cons in the houses we looked at that we never would have noticed, and was always very patient, kind, and fun to work with! We can't recommend him enough!”

“We LOVED working with Jocelyn. Her professionalism, expertise, and sincerity helped us throughout the entire process. With one of us living out of state, a pretty specific timeline, and no idea what we were looking for, Jocelyn was not only responsive, but incredibly patient, understanding, and flexible. She asked the right questions and listened to our concerns-she helped us navigate through some difficult decisions and really put us at ease. She helped us find the home we were looking for. Jocelyn genuinely cares about her clients and really exceeds expectations in all aspects. Jocelyn is incredible- we are so grateful for not only her expertise, but also her friendship.”

“My name is Fred Davis, my wife Janice and I first met Jayne in the very early 2000’s . She listed and sold our house and made the whole process pain free. She is a very passionate person and especially about the real estate business, I guarantee you will never meet a more honest person than Jayne Menne. She has worked with my entire family and when I hear anybody is looking for a Realtor, believe me, without thinking it’s Jayne. She is like a family member and the Davis family loves Jayne Menne!!!”

“We have worked with Jayne Menne for over 25 years. I can't recommend Jayne enough! From the initial consultation to the final closing, Jayne was always an absolute pleasure to work with. She is knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely invested in finding the perfect property for our needs. Jayne takes the time to understand our lifestyle, preferences, and budget, and tailors the search accordingly. She is always available to answer our questions, provides guidance, and offer reassurance when needed. What impressed us most was Jayne Menne’s exceptional negotiation skills, which helped us secure our investment properties at a fantastic price. Jayne goes above and beyond to ensure a smooth transaction, and we couldn't be more grateful. If you're looking for a dedicated, professional, and compassionate real estate agent who truly puts clients first, look no further than Jayne Menne. 5 stars aren't enough - we'd give Jayne 10 stars if we could! Thank you Jayne, and we will work with you again!”

“I have worked with Jayne, both professionally and personally, for almost 30 years. I am a retired attorney and the former DeKalb County Public Guardian and Administrator. In my professional capacity I had countless opportunities where I needed to retain or refer someone to a real estate professional and Jayne is who I chose 100% of the time. When I was responsible for selling real estate through an estate or guardianship I knew that my work, including who I chose to hire to sell the property, would be monitored and scrutinized by a Court or family members of the owner. It was, therefore, important for me to select someone I trusted, respected and was easy to work with, and Jayne was all of these. Personally, I owned multiple homes in DeKalb both as my personal residences and as rental investment properties. I worked with Jayne, exclusively, on each of these transactions and was always satisfied with the results. When my daughters got to the point in their lives to become first-time home buyers, I placed them in Jayne’s trusting hands. They have continued to work with Jayne on subsequent home sales and purchases in DeKalb County and the surrounding area. In short, I highly recommend Jayne for any of your real estate needs. She is honest, hardworking, trustworthy and focused on achieving the best results possible for her loyal clients. She has decades of professional experience as well as personal exposure to the investment market gained through multiple rental homes she has owned and managed over the years.”

“We moved from out of state. Jayne was knowledgeable, responsive, and LISTENED to us. She not only helped us find a home in a timely fashion but also helped introduce us to a new community.”

“Monteil was very energetic and professional. He took the time to listen to me as well teach me important aspects of searching and purchasing. He was very knowledgeable in navigating searched areas really well which helped with navigation process. He truly cared that I purchased what I absolutely loved! He showed his love for the business day after day, showing after showing!”

“Monteil helped me look at homes and ended up helping me find the home I bought. Real professional, knowledgeable, but most importantly he cares. My buying process took several months and at no point did I feel rushed. His one goal was for me to find THE RIGHT house.”

“Monteil was a pleasure to work with. We did things a bit backwards and had already bought a house, so we were needing to sell our house quickly! We had 3 offers in 2 days, so we were luckily in a spot to be able to choose the best offer! Monteil advised what our options with each offer would be, but he did so in a way that gave us information and still allowed us to pick the best offer for us. We appreciated his honesty and patience with us in this process. We would recommend him to anyone looking for an agent who can keep their cool in a stressful situation and provide knowledge during what can be a stressful time!”

“My husband and I purchased our first home together with the help of Monteil and couldn’t have been more satisfied with the process. He is incredibly generous of his time and worked around our busy schedule, He guided us through every step of the way. If we were to buy another one we would go with Monteil again.”

“Monteil was awesome. Always patient and helpful with the steps I had to take with finding and purchasing a home. He helped make my experience feel less stressful.”

“I jumped into this process not really knowing what to expect and Monteil was great to work with. He gave me umph to keep going when I was feeling slightly defeated. Monteil recommended a great house inspector to me and even helped during the process. He really made it a point to find the right house within my budget.”

“We just absolutely love our new home…we haven’t been this comfortable and at peace in so long. Every day it just gets better and better! Laurie was so kind and thoughtful. Thank you for everything!”

“Elizabeth has been with us every step of the way - through putting offers in on two homes, inspections, good news, bad news and everything in between, she has gone above and beyond to make sure we are well informed and taken care of in the home-buying process. She’s not only hardworking and diligent, she actually cares about what she does and the people she works with.”

“Elizabeth was awesome while helping us buy our first house. Great communication, knowledgeable, and made the whole process so easy!”

“Elizabeth is an amazing realtor! She has the perfect balance of a professional yet personal demeanor throughout the entire home buying/selling process . With her as my realtor I didn’t have to worry about a thing. She guided me through the entire process of selling my home and helped me make the best decisions every step of the way. She was patient with me through all the emotions and second guessing I had while selling my home. You’re making the best choice when you choose her to be your realtor. I couldn’t be happier with my experience. Thank you for everything Elizabeth!”

“Jocelyn helped me buy my first home during the pandemic and during the Fall when the market is different than Spring/Summer. She is very organized and replied faster than I expected to my e-mails/calls/texts. Finally, she provided me with all information for the buying process (contract, inspection, attorney) and it made the process less stressful. I highly recommend her if you are a first-time home buyer.”

“Judah helped us stage and great timing. 7 showings in two days of listing. Sold in 48 hours at asking. Helped us through many challenges, and was assuring in times of stress. Certainly will be using Judah when we buy our next home.”

“Judah was extremely personable, supportive, and helpful during our first-time home-buying process. We were unfamiliar with all of the different steps of the process, but Judah always took the time to explain things to us. He was always responsive and proactive. We recommend him to anyone buying their first home or anyone looking for a new one!”

“Laurie was great to work with from start to finish. She was very responsive, informative, and went above and beyond time and time again. If you're looking to sell and/or buy, I would highly recommend working with Laurie. This is the 3rd time we've used Laurie if that says anything, and we will do a 4th if we ever decide to move again.”

“Judah was excellent. He was very responsive to our needs and desires. He was available and helped us walk through the whole situation as it was unfolding. He indicated things that were coming up to be prepared for etc. He is very personable and willing to discuss with us a lot of facets as we looked at homes to buy and and as we looked to sell supporting our pricing. In our eyes he is top notch in all areas.”

“Judah was hands down the best realtor to work with! Any questions we had, Judah got back to us immediately no matter what day or time it was. He was great at explaining everything in a way that was easy to understand. I would highly recommend everyone use Judah as their realtor!”

“Judah kept us well informed. If it had not been Judah's knowledge of reality we would not got our new home. Judah was never too busy to answer our questions or give advice to get us the best service possible.”

“Phenomenal realtor that has now become a great family friend! He has held our hand from the very first step to the end and made the process so smooth!

“From the moment we met he felt like family. He was a real pleasure to work with. Always supportive towards us and our requirements. We have already recommended him to work with our friends who are looking to list their homes in the coming months.”

“After our neighbors had just sold their home, they told us about the positive experience they had with Judah, and we're so glad they did! He is friendly, professional, and willing to go the extra mile. From our initial meet-and-greet to the closing procedure, Judah was there to assist my husband and me through the entire process. He made a challenging situation much easier to deal with, especially since my husband and I had already moved out of state before the sale of our home was closed. We highly recommend Judah for your real estate needs!”
