"Whatever JJ touches turns to GOLD!"
I have closed 8 real estate transactions with JJ over the course of about 15 years and absolutely love working with her. She has always been knowledgeable of the deal and has always advocated in my best interest. In our most recent sale, JJ was able to sell our home in Clayton for top dollar with multiple offers, when nothing else was moving. I couldn't imagine buying or selling a property without her. She maintains a standard of professionalism that is unmatched. She always takes good care of me...call her and she will do the same for you. Thank you JJ!

Thank you for the quick and smooth transaction and for getting top dollar for our home! I highly recommend JJ as a real estate agent. We have known Joanne (JJ) personally for over 20 years and can speak to her dedication and reliability. She recently assisted us in selling our condo, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience and results. Thanks to Joanne’s expertise, dedication, and collaborative approach, our property was sold in just over 30 days, exceeding our expectations. From our first call, JJ demonstrated an understanding of the challenging market and provided invaluable advice on pricing, staging, and marketing. JJ's attention to detail and proactive communication kept us informed every step of the way. JJ went above and beyond to showcase our condo through preparation, professional photography, online listings, staging, and open house, ensuring it stood out to potential buyers. Beyond Joanne’s professional skills, Joanne is personable, trustworthy, and genuinely invested her clients’ needs. She made the whole process easy. We are grateful for Joanne’s hard work and are happy with the outcome of our sale. I would not hesitate to work with and recommend to others Joanne "JJ" Spear as their realtor. Sincerely,
Frank and Rosalie Zablocki

"As a novice buyer and single Mom, it was my good fortune to have chosen Joanne, JJ Spear, to be my trusted realtor and advisor. JJ encouraged me and patiently took me out every weekend to tour properties until we found the home I fell in love with. JJ helped me through every aspect of buying a new home: from guiding me on making the perfect offer, to negotiating with the sellers agent many times, to speaking with my mortgage broker and being a watch dog on facilitating the close of loan (and there were numerous challenges), to being part of the home inspection walk though and second walk through after sale of home. JJ noticed that the sellers’ handy man forgot to a paint a utility door and she even offered to personally paint it! Unlike my first home buying experience in Hawaii many years ago, JJ was very involved and attentive. What an upgrade and pleasant surprise! In spite of all the challenges, JJ made the entire stressful and crazy buyer experience enjoyable. She has a natural way of making you comfortable and touring homes with her felt like I was in the company of a good friend. JJ is also extremely experienced and has an incredible eye for picking out the gem in a sea of homes. In addition, she was always prompt in returning calls and made herself readily available regardless of her client load. In fact, she made me feel like I was her most important client. JJ was pivotal in the entire process buying process and I have such gratitude for her incredible service, expertise in the market and personal touch. In addition to being the best realtor out there, she is also an incredible and genuine person. Whether you are in the market to buy or sell, I highly recommend JJ Spear as a superb and experienced realtor who you can trust and have confidence in. She has an uncanny ability to see potential in properties and is results oriented. JJ will help you find the home of your dreams and you will enjoy every step of the journey. I not only found my dream home but also made a friend out of the process". JJ, thank you again for everything. Best regards,
