Testimonials
JoAnn Hanko recently listed and sold my house, working as my exclusive agent. First of all, she showed the heck out of my house, which raised the interest level among other agents. JoAnn's experience and expert assessment of the market conditions led us to a quick sale while weeding out time-wasting, low-ball offers. Every necessary form was presented to me immediately. I was always in control of the ultimate price, acceptance, and closing details, strengthened by my agent's expertise. If you want a seller's professional who will work with you and at the same time protect you from your worst house sale nightmare, then you need to talk to JoAnn.- Robyn K.
I want to give a HUGE thank you to my wonderful Realtor JoAnn Hanko! Thanks to her I have this amazing home two miles from work and I got it for less than the asking price. Also, thanks to her I sold my old home for way more than I expected. We had a full offer in four days. If anyone needs a great realtor who will fight for you and keep you well informed please give her a call.- Doug D.
I had a very satisfying experience selling my home, which was part of my father's estate. With the help of JoAnn Hanko, the home was sold quickly and without major incidents. She attended to details on a timely basis,, keeping me informed of each step, and coming to my home when signatures were needed. She was always friendly and receptive to my calls. Best of all, she was honest and clear in her communications. What she promised she delivered. Going beyond the call of duty, she was compassionate and helpful during my time of grief over my father's death. At on point, the deal nearly collasped due to the ineptitude of the Buyer's loan officer. JoAnn called on her loan officer who act efficiently to save the deal. If not for their teamwork it is very likely that the house would have been placed back on the market. As it turned out, we were able to close within the time frame that she promised and the closing went smoothly due to JoAnn and her loan officer. It goes without saying that I will gladly refer prospective Buyer's and Seller's to her. If I ever need to sell a home again, I will call JoAnn without hesitation.- Candance M.
