Johanna made the process very smooth and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand.

Since Jo was born and…read moreraise in St Louis and has over 15 years of real estate experience, she knows St Louis like the back of her hand, and is very familiar with the market. Jo understood exactly what we were looking for in our next home.

Jo will definitely be who we call on when we look for our next home!

I got a letter recently, hand addressed to "Dear Neighbor" with no return address. I was nervous…read morebecause of all the weird stories I've read lately about anonymous neighbors sending passive aggressive snarks. So I was quite pissed, though relieved, that it was just a real estate person wanting my business. This letter from Shari Wray & Associates with Keller Williams Realty had a phone number and email but no business address. (But this Yelp page was the only one I found with her name attached to it.) The letter said that a home equity analysis was included, but there was none. I was going to just toss it in the mail but I thought it was so unprofessional to send a letter out without a return address, that was unnecessarily alarming and totally illegitimate looking. So, no, Shari Wray, you will not be getting my business.

While I've known Vicki for decades and worked with her before, this was my first time working with Shari. And it was an absolute pleasure. I was impressed with how intently she listened to our feedback and turned that into results. We always felt that she understood what we were looking for and had our best interests at heart. Whether it was the logistics of house viewings and showings or the endless amount of forms to sign after buying and selling, Shari and Vicki made it seamless for us. This team is invaluable.

John is amazing. He helped us through the entire process of being first-time homeowners. I went in…read moreknowing absolutely nothing, and he helped me understand everything with kindness, care, and intelligence while also ensuring I understood all the important complexities. He also is an incredible person to see a house with--a perceptive eye for all the things to look for that I never would have considered. Throughout the shopping process, he thoughtfully considered our unique needs and gave us answers to questions we didn't even know we had. At the time we were buying (spring 2022), it was definitely a seller's market. At the end of the day, we only had to put in two offers (I know many people who unsuccessfully put over a dozen), and with the second one, he helped us put together the best possible offer and, perhaps most importantly, he helped us understand what risks were worth taking given our situation and which we should avoid. From there, he set us up with a great mortgage broker and helped us through the many questions we had about financing and moving in. He even still answers our questions now, and we've been living here for a year. I couldn't possibly be happier, and I feel so lucky John is our real estate agent. Because of him, we have the perfect house in our favorite neighborhood.

I can't say enough about how amazing John is to work with. Professional, knowledgeable and always available. Thanks again John!

She made the whole process flow very easily. She stayed on top of things for us as we moved across the country to St. Louis. We successfully closed on our first choice house, and are very happy with the whole experience. It was emotionally trying, but Joanne actively helped us work through each step. We called, texted, emailed, tele-conferenced documents. Her organization was top-notch, we anticipated all time constraints (based on our flight, driving and moving schedules) and made all deadlines. We also used her recommendations for inspectors, mortgage brokers and workman for estimates and repairs. We felt very comfortable with all of these people and were impressed by how thoroughly each professional conducted their work. It was a relief to work with people who knew the area and market so well. I absolutely recommend Joanne. If we ever move, we will use her again.
