Joanne Batchelor

Deb and Gerry.

“Joanne Batchelor certainly does earn her real estate fees! Her enthusiasm was obvious from the first meeting, and it continued through to the sale of our home. Our house was priced well, for the market, and her dedication to the sale did not waver. Joanne is willing to help out with any issues that will advance the sale, and her advice is always appreciated. I would recommend Joanne to any of my friends who are looking for a great real estate agent.”

“Joanne is an extremely professional, knowledgeable, resourceful, and thorough real estate agent. She answers questions promptly and is easily accessible. It was a pleasure dealing with her. Our home sold quickly and with little stress. I highly recommend Joanne for all your real estate needs.”

“In our opinion, Joanne is much more than a real estate agent. She is a facilitator. We were selling our parents’ home, and were a little overwhelmed by the task – particularly given that we live in another city. She went way above and beyond the call of duty to find us the best offer with the timelines we needed, arranged a garage sale, dropped off donations to charity, took trash bags to the curb on garbage day, listed items on Kijiji … and even dropped by to visit my Dad in his retirement home a few times. She kept us informed every step of the way and proactively offered suggestions to improve the process. We keep referring to her as our angel. In the end the sale was smooth and stress-free. We wouldn’t hesitate to refer her to friends and family. Thanks Joanne!”

“I live in Calgary and was executor to my father’s estate, which included arranging the sale of his house in Ottawa. A family friend recommended Joanne, and she explained that her service included disposing of any unwanted house contents, at no cost to us. We had limited time in Ottawa, so Joanne’s realistic knowledge of the value of the contents, and her tireless selling, donating and disposing of them were extremely helpful. Joanne’s service extends well beyond the actual sale of the house, which went very smoothly and fairly. We always trusted Joanne and knew we could rely on her to do what she said, despite her busy schedule. She is very hard working and she knows the Ottawa market very well.”

“Our home sold quickly and we were under pressure to find a new home for ourselves and our three young children in a short period of time. Joanne went above and beyond the call of duty to make this happen. She knocked on doors, made use of her extensive network and worked tirelessly. In the end, she not only found us a home in time, but she found the exact home we were looking for. Thank you, Joanne!”

Steve and Diane

“What can you say about Joanne, whom we appreciated for all of the assistance around the selling of our house. Since meeting Joanne we completed our sale from start to finish in only 6 weeks. She was tenacious, knowledgeable and professional, from going through the actual process, to regular support and aid in a garage sale, furniture selling (because we were downsizing) and the promptness of replies to questions and queries. We would recommend Joanne to any of our friends.”

Jeanette and Charles

“What a gem! Joanne was recommended to us by a mutual friend and military colleague. On first meeting Joanne, we found her professional and knowledgeable with an energetic enthusiasm that was hard to ignore. She did not disappoint us. Of particular note, Joanne held several open houses for us within a short period of time that were instrumental in securing the successful sale of our property. To quote a military expression, she “went far beyond the call of duty”, recommending auctioneers, websites and charities that might take our items that were surplus to requirement as we were downsizing. This also included holding a garage sale on our behalf. We have no hesitation in recommending this exceptional agent to anyone.”

“There’s little doubt that Joanne’s sensibility, determination and boundless enthusiasm helped sell my house in two short months while numerous other houses in my neighbourhood had been languishing for over a year. Friendly, genuine and with an eye for details, I felt that I had a real partner in getting my house ready and setting my expectations to the right level. She identified the unique attributes of my home and got potential buyers talking about them. When the time came to negotiate an offer, I felt she gave me the information I needed to confidently make my decision. Joanne also went well beyond what you’d expect from a typical realtor – she helped me sell my things with online listings and garage sales, and even invited me to stay with after closing my house and prior to me moving out of country with my pets. She’s a tremendously wonderful person that you’ll quickly warm to and fully put your trust in.”

Mary and Frank

“Now that it is a done deal, the money is in the Bank and the sale is a reality, we want to thank you. We have been very fortunate that, through a chance meeting, we found you to help us through the whole difficult process. You have been very supportive and kind through it all. You were honest and forthright and we appreciate all that you have done. We realize that it was a hard sell for a number of reasons but you were always there, being encouraging and supportive. We were happy to have had you for our Agent representing our home in the best light possible. Over the last several months we have developed a special relationship and hope that our friendship will continue. We will be gladly recommend you to anyone who asks for an honest and caring Real Estate Agent.”

“Knowledgeable. Professional. Efficient. Ever-so-helpful Joanne patiently worked with my wife and me to help us to find and purchase a great house that is well-suited for our family’s needs. We were more than satisfied with her A++ service, finding Joanne to be knowledgeable, flexible, hard-working and extremely helpful. She quickly grasped the type of house, location and price range that we were looking for and helped us find and compare suitable properties – much of this done via internet since we were overseas for most of the house-hunting period. We found Joanne to be extremely practical and transparent. She always had our best interests as her ultimate priority and provided advice and support that really made the whole process much easier and less stressful. We highly recommend Joanne to anyone looking for an honest, hard-working and friendly real estate agent to help purchase or sell a property.”
