  • Seller review
    Wonderful as usual Joe.
  • Buyer review
    How was great! We really felt he listened and prioritized our wants and needs. He was very attentive and I trust him 100%!
  • Buyer review
    Finding the right house takes time and patience. Joe Vitale was helpful and encouraging when we would get disapointed our bid wasn't excepted or the house we thought we wanted turned out to be not what we thought it was. Joe hung in there with us and was always able to answer all our questions, whether it was about a particular house or neighborhood. When we finally found the right house in the right neighborhood Joe was able to go to bat for us and get us the house for a price we were compfortable with.
  • Buyer review
    Joe was very professional in all aspects of our real estate transactions. He is a pleasure to work with. So glad he was recommended to us.
  • Seller review
    Joe Vitale has been fantastic to work with during both buying and selling a house. Joe was our agent when we bought our first home. During the process, he answered all of our questions and helped us understand every aspect of it from the financial to communicating with the sellers. When the time came to sell the house, Joe expertly walked us through the process of listing it, he staged and marketed it beautifully, and he helped us communicate with the buyer. He also listened to our needs and made sure the process of selling the home was tailored to us. We loved working with Joe and would gladly do it again.
  • Seller review
    Joe came very highly recommended and met our high expectations. We considered several brokers and interviewed three, discussing comprehensively their assessment of the property, their suggestions to make it more competitive in the market, their proposal on price, and marketing strategy. Joe clearly was more prepared on every aspect of that interview, made insightful suggestions on maximizing the appeal of the property but also, on several points, pulled us back from spending money where it wouldn't have paid back in terms of sales price. Throughout the lead-up to formally listing the property, we leveraged Joe's extensive network of contractors for minor home repairs / improvements (eg painter) which he arranged and supervised as we were living out of state. From start to finish, Joe's performance as selling agent was top drawer, among the best we have experienced (and we have bought/sold many properties at all different price levels through the years). Strongly recommend.
